As you can see below, the decorated bodybuilder got in the Halloween spirit this month by tackling Nezuko. It turns out Kang is a fan of Demon Slayer as are so many others. So when it came time to dress up, well – they had to give Nezuko a shot.

Kang is dressed in Nezuko’s usual pink-black yukata, and the costume is pretty spot-on to the one you see in the anime. It is detailed down to Nezuko’s socks and hair bow as you can see. Of course, Kang’s cosplay shows off their impressive physique as the woman is one of South Korea’s most famous bodybuilders. So while we know Nezuko as dainty, this cosplay turns the demon on its head.
