Nijigen no Mori, an anime park located within Nijigen no Mori Anime Awajishima Park on Awaji Island in Hyogo Prefecture, where visitors can experience the world of anime, games, movies, and other two-dimensional content, is cooperating as the venue for the cosplay event "Awajishima COSPLAY ~Awacos~ Powered by World Cosplay Summit," which aims to promote interaction between cosplayers from Japan and around the world and increase awareness of Japanese two-dimensional content. The event is hosted by the World Cosplay Summit, which determines the No. 1 cosplayer each year. The event will be held on Saturday, December 20, 2025.
　This event is hosted by the World Cosplay Summit, a large-scale event that brings together cosplayers from all over the world. The anime park "Nijigen no Mori" offers a space where you can enjoy cosplay, recreating the world of Nijigen content through a combination of nature and technology. Photography is possible in the "Large Lawn Plaza," where vast natural scenery spreads, as well as inside the attractions "Crayon Shin-chan Adventure Park," "NARUTO & BORUTO Shinobi Village," "Godzilla Intercept Operation," and "Dragon Quest Island." Furthermore, the "Nijigen no Mori Awacos Special Stage" will be held on the special stage at the restaurant "Mori no Terrace."
　This time, two types of tickets will be sold, depending on whether or not you can use the changing rooms. The changing rooms are completely indoors, located next to the Morino Terrace restaurant, and either type of ticket will grant you entry to four attractions: Crayon Shin-chan Adventure Park, Naruto & Boruto Shinobi Village, Godzilla Intercept Operation, and Dragon Quest Island (but not the attraction experience).
