Welcome back everyone to another episode of the Boundless Perception Podcast. We have our 5th episode of the year and today on the show we have the boundless cosplayer Protege_47. Some of his cosplays include Shikamaru Narufrom Narutoalong with Overhaulfrom My Hero Academia. He was featured in Creative Cosplay Magazine and was actually chosen as cosplayer of the month. You have to admit that he has a striking resemblance to Shikamaru!That’s always an added bonus when cosplayers look like their characters.

He is based out of North Philadelphia and actually cosplays out of Delaware now. His cosplay career is funded from his extended career in martial arts. He was a kickboxer from the age of 15 and has won the title of world champion. Although he does not train for tournaments anymore, he still trains other fighters so if martial arts is your thing, stop in. This passion for fighting has actually swayed the characters he cosplays as. It only makes sense that he would naturally be drawn towards characters that enjoy a good fight.
