Sometimes the best cosplays are the ones that nobody expects.
A few attendees at the 2017 Anime Expo this week dressed up as one of the best Persona cosplays ever: the Persona 5 battle menu.
Yep, a menu. And it made lots of other attendees’ cosplays twice as awesome as they already were.

Created by an artist who goes by Arktoons, the cosplay get-up is a real-life representation of the battle menu that pops up in Persona 5, allowing players to select different actions. It requires three people to hold it up, and others were eager to get their pictures taken with it.

As far as cosplays go, this was definitely a creative one. Hopefully it inspires more unexpected outfits from cosplayers in the future.
