Cosplayers recreate Oshi no Ko's murder and the 'police' intervene

In recent days, a video showing an anime convention in Hong Kong has become a trend on social media. In the video we can see a cosplayer dressed as Ai Hoshino from the Oshi no Ko franchise , who appears taking pictures with her fans. Suddenly, a hooded man appears on the scene and stabs her, generating the terror of the cosplayer and the screams of the crowd.

Then there is a camera cut and we can see that a policeman is arresting the subject, who even urinates in fear as he is being subdued by the officer. Finally we realize that the knife was fake and that it was all an act, because the cosplayer herself appears applauding the subject's arrest.

Now, if you believed the whole video, then let us tell you that you didn't pay an ounce of attention. Absolutely everything is acted! Not even the scene of the police officer is real, since if we translate the text printed on the back you can read " Kanagawa Prefectural Police ". What would a Japanese official be doing in Hong Kong? And, obviously, the scene of the attacker urinating is also fake and it's just to get the viewer to laugh.

And you, did you believe it when you saw it on the Internet? It seems that, judging by the comments on the video, many Oshi no Ko fans did buy parts of the video or all of the characterization :

" By the way, it's all an act, if they didn't realize it ."
« I really find it difficult to see the joke in all this, I don't see the humor in it ».
« I don't understand why so many people are upset with this, the situation was not offensive at all. It's just a joke ».
« I, like an imbecile, thought that the policeman and the arrest had been real. I respect this level of cosplay very much »
" I really aspire to get to this level of characterization ."
" Oh my god, at least in this timeline the boy was arrested and Ai Hoshino survived ."
« Can you imagine if the knife had been real? It would have been epic ».
« If you had no idea of the context and you were present at the convention, you would have really scared the shit out of yourself ».
" This is a really disturbing sense of humor, but I like it ."
This would have been the alternate ending if Ai Hoshino's death had not been a canon event .
" This video really freaked me out, good thing it turned out to be fake ."
« Crazy Asians scare me ».
And what the hell was the Kamen Rider next to him doing ? What a useless hero! ».
