Those photos are so good,” one wrote. “It looks great on you @tino_mart1n, I love your costumes,” and “Beautiful Satoru. You look just like him," read more of the comments.
At the time of this publication, the celebrity kids have 66.k followers on Instagram. He had the support of over 5k thousand who liked the post, one of them being his famous dad, who made sure to show his support with a "like."
Ahead of his cosplay, the teenager shared clips of Satoru Gojo, telling fans of what was to come. For those unfamiliar with the show, Satoru Gojo is a powerful shaman and teacher of the hit anime and manga series by Gege Akutami.
The Martins take Japan
It's no secret that Valentino loves anime, and his passion even took him on a family trip to Japan. In May 2024, Ricky discussed his love for it in an interview with Nicaraguan broadcaster Martha Debayle while promoting his Apple TV+ series Palm Royale.
