A My Hero Academia cosplayer went viral when she shared her insanely accurate Miruko costume. The artist’s incredible transformation into the real life version of the Rabbit heroine will leave fans in awe.
Very few animes have reached the heights of My Hero Academia, as it’s become a worldwide phenomena since its epic 2016 debut. The series’ story about a high school that trains teenagers with powers called ‘quirks’ has connected with millions.
A popular cosplayer ‘kinpatsucosplay‘ shared her true-to-life take on Rumi Usagiyama, and became her alter ego Rabbit Miruko. The artist looks so much like the heroine, it’s almost as if she’s hopped from straight out of the screen.
