In the anime we are introduced to the “Pillars” who are the most devastating fighters in the Demon Slayer Corps. The powerful swordsmen each possess a mark that they can unleash on their enemies.
Cosplay duo ‘shirogane_sama‘ and Misaki Sai ‘saiwestwood‘ shared their incredibly accurate outfits of the Love Pillar Mitsuri and the Insect Pillar Shinobu, and look as if they stepped out of the anime itself.
The two artists perfectly nailed the look of the two warriors, capturing the anime’s style by recreating Mitsuri’s large pink and green hair that spirals down, and Shinobu’s black and purple hairdo which she wears up in a bun with a butterfly on top.

The cosplay duo are both renowned artists, with Shirogane amassing over 368k followers on her Instagram and Misaki with 50k, as anime fans and gamers are impressed by their faithful recreations of popular characters.
