If there’s one standout playable character in Honkai Star Rail, it’s definitely Herta. As the 83rd member of the Genius Society, she is known as the true master of the space station. Herta Space Station, her creation, is a remarkable starship that aims to uncover the mysteries of the galaxy. Players are captivated by Herta’s brilliance and astute demeanor.
Akase Akari, a renowned Japanese idol, expressed her admiration for Herta by flawlessly cosplaying the character. Her Herta cosplay shines brightly, capturing the essence of the game. With a stunning purple backdrop, Akari perfectly embodies Herta’s aesthetic. She wears Herta’s iconic outfit, complete with the genius’ dress, beret, and an imposing mechanical hammer, exuding beauty and grace.
Akari’s attention to detail is truly remarkable, with special effects applied to her knees and shoulders. The depiction of strings attached to her fingers represents Herta’s remote-controlled creations, mirroring the character’s lore where she utilizes six puppets throughout the space station. These puppets resemble Herta as a young child, adding depth to her character. Akari’s portrayal showcases Herta’s exceptional intellect and record-breaking IQ on her home planet, The Blue.
Herta specializes in dealing Ice damage to a single enemy and follows The Erudition path type.
Akase Akari’s admiration extends beyond Honkai Star Rail, as she has previously showcased her affinity for another beloved Hoyoverse title, Genshin Impact. She has cosplayed as Genshin’s Kamisato siblings, Ayato and Ayaka, earning admiration from fans across both game communities.
Akari gained popularity after performing the ending song for the anime My Dress Up Darling. Fans can check out her other cosplays on her Twitter account (@akase_official).
