My Dress-Up Darling has become the surprise hit of the Winter 2022 anime season, with the character of Marin Kitagawa becoming especially popular since the anime adaptation's debut. The team behind the series seem to share the fandom's love of the character as well, as in addition to Yamazaki, several other animators and designers working on the series have also been sharing their own art of the aspiring cosplayer. Previous art drops include Yamazaki's original revealing look at the character, as well as a showcase of the various outfits Marin wore throughout the first four episodes of the series.

The show tells the story of Wakana Gojo, a shy high school student who has dedicated his life to creating traditional Japanese-style figures, known as Hina dolls. Gojo has gone through most of his adolescence without having a single friend, but that all changes when he meets Marin Kitagawa, an outgoing classmate who is one of the most popular girls at his school. The two form an unlikely friendship afterMarin discovers that Gojo's doll-crafting skills can be used to help her achieve her dream of cosplaying all of her favorite anime and video game characters.
