Kena: Bridge of Spirits came out September 21. September 22, I picked up the game and immediately fell in love with it. The aesthetics, character design and story so beautiful, the gameplay immersive. I knew instantly that I wanted to cosplay the titular character, Kena.

As a non-binary, bisexual cosplayer, it is a mystery how I haven’t cosplayed the God of Mischief Loki until now. While I didn’t immediately fall in love with Loki’s character at the very beginning of the MCU, I did slowly grow very fond of him and Tom Hiddelston’s portrayal of him. With each new appearance, I began to love him more and more. The Disney+ show “Loki” solidified that.
