Enako is not only Japan’s most famous cosplayer, she is also perhaps the country’s most successful. As Kotaku previously posted, she has said she making up to $90,000 monthly from cosplaying, streaming, and promotional activities. Today, news broke that she is dating pro gamer Kenki, causing “プロゲーマー” (pro-gamer) to trend on Twitter in Japan.

Kenki plays for the Japanese Rainbow Six Siege team, Father’s Back. You can check out an interview with him right here.

 

The news that the two are dating was splashed all over game sites such as My Game News Flash and Game Watch Impress, mainstream sites like Oricon News, and even Yahoo! News Japan.

 

Bunshun Online, known for hounding celebrities and politicians, revealed the relationship earlier today, publishing photos of Enako and Kenki walking together at night, holding hands as they walked back to her apartment building. The publication added that the two were living together. The couple, it seems, met at Ubisoft’s Ubiday event a few years back.

 

Honestly, this kind of stuff might seem like whatever, really, who cares. What makes it of interest is how a cosplayer’s love life is seen as interesting enough to warrant this sort of coverage, just like a movie star would.
