Hu Tao Cosplay from Genshin Impact

Hu Tao is a fan-favorite character from Genshin Impact, known as the 77th Director of the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor in Liyue. She blends a mischievous personality with deep knowledge of life and death, often guiding spirits while playing pranks on the living.

As a powerful Pyro user, Hu Tao wields a polearm and sacrifices her own health to boost her damage output, making her both unique in gameplay and visually iconic.

Her distinctive design — featuring a dark red outfit, black hat with a plum blossom, and ghost companion — has made her one of the most popular characters for cosplay in the Genshin Impact community.
