Hi everyone, it's new article day. 🥰 This week, Solomon Bajo explores the cosplay scene in Nigeria, and how it's grown from humble beginnings, into a genuine fandom revolution. It's a great read, and we hope you enjoy it. Link: hera.fyi/alchemy #anime #fandom #cosplay

That's 2000+ words for Anime Herald on the visual novel Z.A.T.O. and its ties to the vocaloid scene! Featuring an interview w/ the game's elusive creator Ferry, and editing by vocaloid superfan @mashazart.bsky.social
