My Hero Academia cosplayer explodes into action as female Bakugo Viz Media \/ mochichuu, InstagramMy Hero Academia is an ongoing anime\/manga series that boasts a wealth of colorful characters \u2014 one of them being the ever-popular Katsuki Bakugo, which a skilled cosplayer brought to life with her own special twist. Bakugo (whose name literally means \u201cexplosion\u201d) is one of MHA\u2019s titular characters, acting as a foil to main protagonist Deku, who he constantly teases during the length of their heated rivalry. Bakugo\u2019s name is also relevant to his quirk, \u201cExplosion,\u201d allowing him to shoot powerful explosions from his hands, which are covered in nitroglycerin that allow him to create the blasts he uses for mobility and combat purposes. As one of the show\u2019s most popular students, it comes as little surprise that the fiery youngster has seen multiple renditions from cosplayers the world over \u2014 but one costumer has truly flipped the script with Bakugo in a huge way. Popular Italian cosplayer \u201cMochi Chuu\u201d revealed her very own version of Bakugo on her Instagram account, genderbending the character with a unique feminine twist that truly brings out her sadistic side. Replacing Bakugo\u2019s athletic tanktop for a haltered crop-top, there\u2019s not much that separates the character\u2019s classic hero costume from her feminine portrayal, otherwise \u2014 excluding the killer eyeshadow and makeup, of course. https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CAYQYaPjNU9\/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link Nevertheless, Mochi\u2019s costume is truly top-tier, providing a stunningly accurate take on Bakugo\u2019s spiky hair and elaborate hero outfit, giant grenades and all. While the cosplay is surely a work of art, Mochi admitted that the outfit has since been destroyed, but claimed that she hopes to remake it into an even better version for the future. https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CALUj9FjyvX\/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link This isn\u2019t the first time she\u2019s genderbent MHA\u2019s male characters, either; Mochi previously debuted a female version of Deku, giving the character long hair an a fashionable crop top to set her apart from her male inspiration. With MHA season four finally completed, fans are anxiously awaiting the next arc for the popular anime; and although a certain release date has yet to be confirmed, an official announcement for the show has claimed it is on the way \u201csoon.\u201d That\u2019s good news for our cosplayers like Mochi Chuu!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
