The Chinese cosplayer is quite the chameleon but his cosplay of Blade is just so mind-blowingly good, including the TikTok for it was just unavoidable.

Kafka cosplay from Honkai Star Rail

Kafka is one of the key antagonists, and her style, confidence and in-game DMG have made her a mainstay for many Honkai Star Rail players' party. Kafka the Stellaron Hunter was an instant hit with Honkai Star Rail fans and is a common cosplay choice, particularly because she is arguably the most iconic character.

Kafka is seen cosplayed here by Larissa Rochefort, Rakukoo, Aru.rinh, weibocos and Twoyun.
