China’s one and only cosplay magazine, “COS TOP,” evangelists of the cosplay scene in China, are constantly scouring the country for the nation’s most prominent cosplay figures to induct them into the highly exclusive cosplay community they’ve created, called “TOP Koukou” (TOP High School). In this corner we’ll introduce you to the leading members enrolled in China’s “TOP Koukou” community.

Cosplayer #004 is Bokkokuro. He describes "fans" as "friends" and his openminded-ness is one of this cosplayer's biggest charms.
