Shigaraki Cosplay Costume

Shigaraki’s quirk has made him develop a warped and vicious appearance. You can see that he looks frail, malnourished, and weak. He has pale skin that somehow radiates as yellow to indicate his dehydration, in addition to chapped lips. Tomura has grayish-blue hair that makes him look paler. He also had some unknown scars from his mouth and right eye.

If you see him for the first time without knowing his story, you might say that he’s not a big deal of a villain. His outfit is not striking as well. He only wears casual clothes like his black long-sleeved pair with a black jacket. He also has red sneakers. Seems like an everyday outfit, yes. But what makes him unique and malevolent is the 14 hands embalmed and attached to different parts of his body.

According to the anime series, those 14 hands are the hands of his grandparents, mother, father, sister, and two other unnamed people. The two decayed hands covering his face are from his father. Don’t worry, though. Only one will do the work if you don’t have a budget to purchase seven pairs of hands.

About Shigaraki from My Hero Academia

Tomura Shigaraki is devoid of any trace of humanity streaming through his veins. He does not care about anyone, regardless of whether their lives are at stake or whether they are children. In point of fact, in his view, students from UA need to be murdered to prevent a new generation of heroes from coming into existence. However, in the eyes of All Might, the greatest hero, Tomura, is nothing more than an immature and spoiled villain who will lose his mind whenever his plans don’t work out as planned.

Because his hands rot away anything they are clutching, he may cause as much harm as he wants to anybody he merely holds on to. It’s possible that the abusive treatment he had as a child from his father was the root cause of his evil and twisted nature. The only person he feels compassion for is his lord, All for One; he has none for everyone else. Because of his overpowering peculiarity, he became a formidable foe who presents the heroes of their age with a significant task.
