We have already talked about her previously, but the cosplayer “Neneko (ネネコ)” is extremely popular for her ability to dress like a loli, that is, characters of short stature and adorable appearance. Interestingly, it’s not that the cosplayer is a loli per se, but that her team and herself do incredible camera and editing work that make her look like one of them.
Anyway, taking advantage of the popularity of the song “Shukusei!! Loli Kami Requiem“, by VTuber Ui Shigurethe cosplayer decided that her new photo session would be focused on this theme.
The popular cosplayer then dressed up as the protagonist of the music video, that is, Ui Shigure herself in her loli version. The result was completely spectacular, and hundreds of comments still show that her followers still have no idea how the model manages to create an effect where she herself looks like a little girl, even though she is not really one.
The lyrics of “Shukusei!! Loli Kami Requiem” is written from the perspective of the fictional character of Ui Shigure, a nine-year-old girl who attacks imprisoned loliconeros and simultaneously acts as a goddess guiding them to salvation. The music video features danmaku comments, inspired by the comment layout of the Nico Nico Douga video platform, which depict sexual predators. Right in the middle of the song, in an act of “divine purging,” the music cuts to show her firing her “Ui Beam” to electrocute the “nasty creatures” while the narrator explains the situation and the attack. Shigure’s sadistic way of teasing has been described as a “mesugaki”; that is, the provocative behavior of a girl to sexually attract adults.
The “overwhelming quality” of the video, especially the dancing that appears during the song’s chorus, helped amplify the sudden growth of its popularity. TikTok users began posting videos of themselves or their own characters or video game characters, such as Genshin Impact, imitating the dance. At the end of September, it is estimated that more than six thousand videos about the song had been published on the platform. Its popularity later spread to other platforms such as YouTube Shorts and Twitter.
