The male cosplayer, on the left, wears a grey vest with teal trim, a matching teal tie, black shorts, blue sneakers, and black headphones. He holds the 'KAMUDO' manga, which he opens to display an intricate, black-and-white two-page spread illustration.

Both are engaged in conversation, smiling and looking at each other and the manga. The background is a wide-angle view of the convention center with tall grey columns and distant attendees. Overhead white text with a black outline reads: "I really liked the amount of two-page spreads.

So it's written sort of like an anime, which I really appreciated." The lighting is bright and industrial, reflecting off the polished floor.
