Sword Art Online cosplayer snipes her way to victory as perfect Sinon A-1 Pictures \/ Instagram: @eeelyeeeProlific artist Ely Cosplay went viral when she transformed herself in Sword Art Online\u2019s blue-haired sniper Sinon. Her faithful re-creation of the Phantom Bullet arc heroine will leave fans stunned. Sword Art Online is one of the most popular anime properties in the world. Adapted from the light-novel series written by Reki Kawahara, millions have connected with its epic virtual reality MMORPG concept. Talented cosplayer Ely brought one of the show\u2019s most beloved characters Sinon to life with her jaw-dropping costume. The depiction is so accurate, it\u2019s almost as if the deadly sniper has jumped from out of the screen. Sword Art Online\u2019s Sinon comes to life The series is about a highly-advanced virtual reality system that allows players to truly live in a fantasy game world. Sinon is first introduced in the Phantom Bullet arc, and is the avatar created by student Shino Asada. Ely Cosplay shared her take on the sniper, and posed with the heroine\u2019s iconic weapon in her hands. In the story, the legendary rifle is called the \u2018PGM Ultima Ratio Hecate I\u2019 and was obtained by the character after defeating a dungeon boss. The gun looks so real, it could easily be mistaken for a prop from a live-action film adaptation of Sword Art Online. The artist nailed Sinon\u2019s look by creating her short blue hair, and capturing her striking indigo eyes. https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/BxwwdYdhrZ2\/ The artist\u2019s photo shows off the insane amount of work that went into recreating the avatar\u2019s detailed attire. The patterns on the cosplayer\u2019s bodysuit are truly amazing, and even lead into the heroine\u2019s signature black shorts. In the game, the sniper wears a military desert green desert coat, and a white muffler around her neck to protect her from the elements. She even captured little details, like her ammo pouches, and her iconic black hair clips. Ely also tackled Sinon\u2019s second appearance later in the series, and it\u2019s absolutely adorable. Her ruffled blue hair now turns into cat ears, and she even has a tail. The cosplayer traded in her prop gun for the character\u2019s iconic bow. https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/BSTZ3tNDLTO\/ Despite making its light-novel debut in 2009, Sword Art Online continues to be one of the most successful series in Japan.
