There is a fried chicken, who has a dream.
He doesn't wanna be a successful fried chicken; He doesn't wanna be tasty;
His dream is to become a cosplayer.
Although everyone thinks he is strange, he still sticks with it.
He thinks this is the thing that he wants to do. Finally, he made it!
He became a cosplayer. He is confident, he is glowing!

My inspiration for this idea is from an animation that influenced me. The main character always seeks some superpower phenomenon. Everyone thinks her behaviors are strange and totally meaningless, however, she sticks to the things she likes anyway. Her insistence is motivational and it deeply impresses me.
​
In this work, I identified a fried chicken leg as a character. He has a dream, which is disconnected with his environment value. In this world, his value of success is to be yummy. But his dream seems to be different than others. From the chicken leg’s perspective, I created a story that also questions the meaning of his value.
What's the value of chasing a dream when it disengaged from society?
