Megan Thee Stallion is here to save “hot girl summer” with her new self-titled album, Megan. But on top of giving all the hotties out there a new reason to celebrate, the Grammy award-winning rapper is also throwing some love to one of her favorite forms of media: anime.
In her new track, “Otaku Hot Girl,” the noted anime fan uses a sample from Jujutsu Kaisen to kick things off. She then follows this up with Yuji Itadori’s English voice actor, Adam McArthur, delivering a new take on his famous quote, “I’m into girls like Jennifer Lawrence”:
“I like tall women with a nice big a**,” McArthur starts. “Just saying’. Like Grammy winner Megan Thee Stallion.”
Megan Thee Stallion goes on to drop several anime references throughout the “Otaku Hot Girl,” such as “Can’t touch me like Gojo” and “Fightin’ demons in my head like I’m Itadori” from Jujutsu Kaisen, and “Sexy jutsu, I feel like Naruto” and “I’m not finna argue with a Sasuke avi” from Naruto.
Megan Thee Stallion has never shied away from her love of anime and shonen in particular. The award-winning rapper channeled Bruno Bucciarati from Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure while presenting an award at Crunchyroll’s 2024 Anime Awards and has cosplayed several other anime characters, such as Todoroki and Mirko from My Hero Academia, Jolyene Cujoh from Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure, Death the Kid from Soul Eater, and Satoru Gojo from Jujutsu Kaisen–all of which can be seen on her Instagram. Back in 2022, she performed in Tokyo while dressed as Sailor Moon.
Earlier today, Megan Thee Stallion took to Twitter to ask what song fans would want a music video to first. Here’s hoping “Otaku Hot Girl” is high up on the list and we get to see even more of the star’s love for anime later on this year.
