We’re totally in love with Kariko Hikari’s cosplay of Hotaru Shidare, the sexy heroine of the popular Japanese manga and anime Dagashi Kashi.

Based in Guangzhou, China, Kariko has a seriously cute face and body, which makes her perfect to cosplay characters like Hotaru Shidare, Chitoge Kirisaki, and Hatsune Miku. Her body, skin, eyes, and hair are spot on, and she’s even showing off Hotaru’s obsession with candy.

These stunning selfies were taken with her iPhone 6, but her professional photographer boyfriend, Sandy Shiki, has taken many other pics which can be found on his Weibo profile.

More pictures of her cosplaying – and her shiba puppy – can be found on her official Instagram, Facebook, and Weibo profiles. She also has Twitter, though it isn’t updated regularly . She also operates an amazing online store, selling clothing, bags, hats, accessories, and rare pepes.

You can find out more about Dagashi Kashi on the official Japanese or English websites.
