A fan of the wildly popular franchise JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure has recreated the “Approaching Me” meme, cosplaying Jotarokujo and Dio Brando.

The image was posted by the cosplayer who goes by Seanpai Senpai to their Twitter account. Seanpai Senpai (@seanpaisen) tweeted that this picture is one of his favorites and that JoJo has been an excellent inspiration to his workout routine. In this picture, the meme is painstakingly recreated not just through cosplay but also by the use of color-lit lighting that replicates the color scheme of yellow in the original manga panel from which the meme was created from.
