Serving as the ultimate Halloween costume inspiration, photographer Akihiro Matsumura documents the distinctly Japanese pop culture phenomenon of cosplay, which rose to popularity in the 90s after the term was coined in 1984. Matsumara photographs one of the earliest cosplay conventions, featuring recognisable characters from the world of film and anime, including Studio Ghibli’s Princess Mononoke, Sailor Moon, The Legend of Zelda, Peter Pan, and hundreds more.
