Filipino cosplayer Deacon, aka DorkyDea, portrays the perfect Matsuda. Proving once more that it's not so much the costume, but the stance, expression and becoming your character, which make the most successful cosplay.
Deacon is part of a collection of cosplaying friends as The Tuxedo Team, who are based in the Philippines. By all accounts, he even aped Matsuda's personality there at the Death Note photoshoot, brimming with energy and enthusiasm; keeping everyone in laughter with his joking antics.
Deacon has been inactive for a good while as a cosplayer - Death Note or otherwise - and has made all of his social networking private. We had to get permission from his friend Jin - aka BeyondInfinity - to republish the above. Nevertheless, you can still view his DorkyDea profile on DeviantART, as well as reading BeyondInfinity's account of the Death Note cosplay shoot by the extended Tuxedo Team.
Even the group's 'reject' Death Note Matsuda cosplay photographs are amazing!
