Howl's Moving Castle is one of Hayao Miyazaki's most iconic and beautifully animated Studio Ghibli films. One scene in particular, featuring the titular character, Howl Pendragon, stands out because it features the protagonist holding a ball of light in his two hands and surrounded by beautiful sparkling bursts of light, illuminating the dark night sky around him. This unforgettable moment has been captured perfectly in cosplay.

@morpheevaphotography on Instagram has photographed a recreation of this memorable Howl's Moving Castle moment that is virtually indistinguishable from the scene itself. The scene occurs as a flashback of Howl's youth, so his appearance is extremely different from how he appears in the rest of the film.

The cosplayer's hair is short and dark black, mimicking Howl's natural hair shade rather than his dyed light blond hair in the beginning half of the movie.
