This year's Niconico Chokaigi festival offered exciting attractions not only inside the exhibition halls but also outside, thanks to the caliber of cosplayers who showed up. With the anime adaptation of Jojo's Bizarre Adventure now in its fourth season playing out the Golden Wind arc, it was only natural to expect cosplays from the popular series at NicoNico Chokaigi.
As exemplified by the famous Kano sisters, Bucciarati, Giorno, Trish and the rest of the protagonist gang have arguably been the most popular characters in the series to cosplay. However, at NicoNico Chokaigi, we also saw some excellent representation from La Squadra Esecuzioni, most notably what we think may be the best version to date of Pesci, courtesy of Japanese cosplayer Yu-Ya (@44yuya44):

"Anikiiii!!!!"
With over 227,000 likes at the time of writing, this photo of Yu-Ya's Pesci perfectly captured the look, the costume, the expression, and even the chinless appearance of the memorable foe.
Naturally, photographers in attendance took plenty of pictures of Pesci in action, using his Beach Boy stand.
For example, Juzaemon (@ichise_juzaemon), who kindly allowed us to post these pictures:

"Here are Pesci pictures I got from someone else at Chokaigi! | Looking super fiendish... | Photo: Juzaemon"
Or kotoha (@kotoha_hina), who took these shots:
"Yu-Ya's (@44yuya44) Pesci was so cool!!! | Thank you!!!"
Incidentally, his cosplay choice for the first day of NicoNico Chokaigi was Shin from Dorohedoro, as captured by photographer Jou (@nijiurara):
"Niconico Chokaigi, Day 1! | I did Shin from Dorohedoro! | It's a minor work but those who picked up on it seemed to like it so I was happy! | Making the mask myself was the right way to go. | Photo: Jou"
