Misato Katsuragi Cosplay — Casual Riverside Town, Photo 2

A quiet, winding street runs between a stone retaining wall, small houses and trees, and Misato Katsuragi stands on it in a loose contrapposto, framed from head to knees. One arm is stretched out in front of her with a tall can; the other hand rests behind her hip. She looks down at the label with playfully pursed lips, as if studying what she is about to drink.

The can is a Clear Asahi, white fading to gold, and her lowered gaze makes it the center of the picture. Daylight filters through the leaves from the upper left, and the background falls into a gentle blur. Long purple waves reach below the chest, over a mustard-yellow crop top worn with high-waisted light denim shorts.

The yellow top and denim shorts follow what Misato wears around her apartment in the series, off duty and out of the red jacket she wears at NERV.
