My Hero Academia’sDeku, whose real name isIzuku Midoriya, andBakugo Katsukiare two members of U.A. High’s hero program with a complex relationship. The beginnings of their friendship were extremely rocky.Bakugo bullied Dekucruelly for many yearsfor being Quirkless, seemingly on a mission to make Deku as uncomfortable and insecure as possible. Despite his rudeness, Deku thrived, especially after inheriting All Might’s Quirk, and the duo found themselves together again in the same high school.
@ariem._.cosplay and @squirtlesquadphotographyhave posted a breathtaking look featuring both of the young heroes. In the emotional image, the Bakugo cosplayer holds up a Deku cosplayer who appears unconscious or, at least, very injured. The photograph is moving,depicting Deku and Bakugo’s friendship later inMy Hero Academia,after Bakugo apologized to Deku and the duo developed more of a playful rivalry, rather than Bakugo just insulting Deku heartlessly. The Bakugo cosplayer is wearing a short, spiky blond wig, reminiscent of Bakugo’s normal hairstyle. They have donned an exact replica of his hero costume, in all its explosive glory.

My Hero Academia Teases The Surprising Way Deku & Bakugo Surpassed All Might
There’s at least one area in which Bakugo and Deku are both far better equipped than their mentor, and reliving the experience has All Might reeling.
Both of theMy Hero Academiacosplayers have done a remarkable job transforming into the character they are emulating. Perhaps even more impressive than the outfits themselves, though, ishow much emotion and impact they have managed to expressthrough just one simple photograph. The photographer, @squirtlesquadphotography, has captured the moment seen in the image beautifully, as Bakugo carefully holds a wounded Deku in his arms. Earlier on in the series, Bakugo would never have dreamed of helping Deku in this way, but over time, he genuinely started to care for Deku as both a fellow hero and a friend.
