Popular illustrator Crain’s My Hero Academia Shigaraki has been called “over the top” and “the most breathtaking piece of art ever” after capturing the attention of fans of the franchise on X (formerly Twitter).
The fan art video features MHA villain Tomura Shigaraki looking especially menacing in a stark black, white, and red portrait. Shigaraki stood with a menacing smile, his white hair falling down and obscuring most of his face.
