Chinese cosplayer Tian Jiao may have a pretty impressive cosplaying track record, having previously dressed up as emperors and Black Myth: Wukong’s Erlang Shen.
But it’s his most recent cosplaying effort as Nezha that really got people in a tizzy. This is despite looking, well, vastly different from the cute animated Nezha in the wildly successful animation movie Ne Zha 2.
And it all boils down to his super fit physique.
Tian Jiao, who has over 102.8K followers on Douyin, recently posted a clip of him in costume, strutting on the streets, which has since gone viral.
In the video, passers-by can be seen gaping at him from a distance. Their reaction was totally understandable, ‘cos how often do you see a topless Nezha in public, with his six-pack completely bared for all to see?
He even stopped to let a woman cop a feel of his washboard abs, before he effortlessly lifted her — bridal carry style — and twirled her around. The woman was seen beaming and her face turned slightly red as he put her down.
Netizens were equally impressed by Tian Jiao’s ripped physique and impressive costume, and many gushed over how handsome he looked in his cosplay.
“Are those abs for real?” one asked.
It looks like Tian Jiao is no stranger to compliments — his cosplay videos often garner a whole bunch of comments, showering him with praise on his “perfect body”.
His make-up and outfits are so immaculate, some even said that they are torn between calling him “feminine or masculine”.
Tian Jiao also posts photos of himself lifting weights and working out at the gym. Yes, a fit figure like his doesn’t come by without hard work, okay?
