Chun-Li From Street Fighter Comes Out Kicking in Action-Packed Cosplay

“Want to see my Kung-Fu? I’ll show you.” Chu-Li cosplayer hits all the right moves with their amazing attire.

Street Fighter is one of Capcom’s most beloved fighting games, making the rounds since 1987. Inspired by the manga Karate baka ichidai, the title is one of the highest-grossing video game franchises of all time and serves as one of Capcom’s flagship series with total sales of 46 million units worldwide as of December last year.

In appreciation of Street Fighter’s very first female fighter, cosplayer Giulia Valeriani brings the character into the real world.

25-year-old Giulia Valeriani, otherwise known as moonchild_77 on Instagram, is a fitness trainer and digital artist when they’re not performing kick-ass moves and dressing up as Street Fighter‘s Chu-Li. Giulia perfects Chu-Li’s strength with well-toned muscles that is sure to defeat anyone that stands in her way.

Wearing a black sleeveless evening gown in one picture as well as Chun-Li’s trademark hairstyle, Giulia takes the “strongest woman in the world” to new levels.

We can also see Giulia don those scary spiked metal bracelets that Chun-Li wears to help tone and exercise her body when performing her kicking moves and also helps stabilize her centre of gravity during a Hyakuretsukyaku as well as limit her during supers such as the Senretsukyaku to avoid overexerting her muscles. Of course, the spikes are also used for the purpose of intimidation.

If you enjoy Giulia’s Chu-Li, you must check out her Morrigan Aensland cosplay, a fictional antiheroine character and the female protagonist in Capcom’s Darkstalkers series as well as many others right here. As a word of warning, many images are NSFW.
