Mahoraga Costume
With this treasure, I summon the ultimate Divine General cosplay.
Mahoraga, the most powerful shikigami of the Ten Shadows Technique in Jujutsu Kaisen, is a popular choice for anime fans looking for a powerful, monstrous cosplay. The look is defined by a muscular, towering white body, a distinct multi-spoked wheel floating behind its head, wing-like appendages on its face, and a sword attached to its right arm. Recreating this legendary entity involves a mix of body paint or a muscle suit, a detailed custom mask, and key prop construction.

Eight-spoked wheel (Dharma wheel)
A large, lightweight golden-brown or wooden-style eight-spoked wheel that mounts behind the head.
DIY: Cut the wheel shape out of thick cardboard or EVA foam, paint it gold and brown, and mount it to a backpack harness hidden under your clothing.
Sword of Extermination
A double-edged blade wrapped in bandages, attached directly to the right forearm.
DIY: Shape a flat blade from foam board, wrap the hilt and lower blade in white gauze bandages, and secure it to your forearm with elastic bands.

How to put it together
- 1
Put on the white muscle suit or apply full-body white makeup to your torso, arms, and neck.
- 2
Secure the harness for the eight-spoked wheel onto your back, ensuring the wheel hovers directly behind your head.
- 3
Put on the white hakama pants or wrap the white sash fabric around your waist, covering the bottom of the wheel harness.
- 4
Attach the Sword of Extermination prop to your right forearm using the concealed elastic bands or wraps.
- 5
Carefully put on the Mahoraga mask, adjusting the wing-like eye appendages so they sit symmetrically.
- 6
Touch up any exposed skin on your hands or neck with white makeup to match the mask and suit.
Makeup & hair
If not using a full mask, paint your face entirely white, draw thick black lines extending down from your eyes, and use black sclera contact lenses for a terrifying, inhuman look.

- It is the Sword of Extermination, a double-edged blade coated in positive energy. It is physically attached to his right forearm and wrapped in bandages.
