Cosplayer Zazzy Zenin released a new Maki Zenin cosplay that fans are immediately calling the most lore-accurate version yet, capitalizing on the character’s recent surge in popularity following Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3. The timing aligns sharply with the latest episode showcasing Maki’s intense power and post-transformation state.
Zazzy’s interpretation focuses on the post-Shibuya look straight from the manga, featuring the distinctive scarred face, the imposing physique, and, of course, the signature polearm. The full set was released across social media this week.
The costume incorporates custom Heavenly Restriction prosthetics designed to mimic Maki’s body after the Shibuya events. Readers pointed out the accurate split hairstyle, the eyepatch, and even the subtle muscle definition that matches Gege Akutami’s original drawings.
She was photographed wielding a replica of Maki's dragon-bone weapon, which was reportedly forged specifically for this shoot. The cosplayer confirmed spending months sourcing materials to achieve the correct textures.
The post gained massive traction immediately after Season 3 Episode 5 aired, as that episode heavily featured Maki’s brutal fight sequences, reminding everyone of her significant growth in the story. The comments section exploded with praise, including remarks like, "This is peak Maki!" and "Better than official figures."
MAPPA’s recent animation work on Maki’s design this season has clearly fueled a new wave of inspiration across the cosplay community. For those interested in replicating the look, a complete Maki Zenin set—covering the wig, outfit, and accessories—is listed on Etsy for $57.98, though Zazzy’s custom version sets an incredibly high standard.
With Season 3 continuing its deep dive into the Culling Game arc, Zazzy also hinted that she is planning builds for other Zenin clan members soon. Jujutsu Kaisen followers should definitely keep an eye on her page for future reveals.
