Cosplayer broadcasts as Yamada

In the story, students are met with the immense voice of Hizashi Yamada upon arriving at U.A. High – the premier school for those with superpowers. Using his quirk, the over-the-top professor broadcasts announcements.

Cosplayer Gajda ‘son_kumori‘ Arnold shared his jaw dropping My Hero Academia outfit on social media, transforming into the character with perfect accuracy with a true-to-life photograph.

Yamada infamously sports yellow spiked hair that is blown back, thin eyebrows that curve up up at the ends, and his pointy facial hair, which the talented artist recreated with the faithful costume.

Gajda shared more photos on his Instagram of the cosplay, giving us a full glimpse at his detailed outfit, from his headphones, to the black leather jacket with gold shoulder pads.  He also recreated the multi-directional speaker that the anime character wears around his neck.

In the show, the Pro Hero boasts a radio-presenter personality, and is always excited to get others amped up, which the talented artist perfectly portrays with his spot-on pose of the U.A. faculty member.

Yamada’s quirk is the ability to raise his voice to ear-bleeding levels, and the talented artist mimicked a scene of him using his power with special effects, which makes the character look like he jumped from right out of the animation.
