The Criticism and Defense: Gatekeeping vs. Art
Naturally, any cosplayer who achieves this level of fame faces scrutiny. Some purists argue that Octokuro focuses too much on the "sexy" aspect of Lady Dimitrescu, straying from the horror roots. Others complain about the use of Photoshop to alter waistlines and height.
However, Octokuro has been transparent. In a 2023 interview (translated from Russian), she stated: "Cosplay is fantasy. I am not 9 feet tall. I am a human woman. My job is to make you believe for one second that I could be her. If I use a stool and a wide lens to do that, I have succeeded."
She also openly shares raw, unedited behind-the-scenes footage to prove that her physique is largely natural, telling critics, "The padding is in the dress, not my body."
