Hatsuharu Sohma from Fruits Basket

Haru (voiced in Japanese by Makoto Furukawa and in English by Justin Cook) is one of the members of the Sohma family in the anime/manga Fruits Basket).

He is the Ox in the zodiac, and has two sides to his personality, a dark and light mode, essentially. One is a lot more calm, and the other is ready to fight at any moment. Out of the rest of the zodiacs, he cares the most about Rin and Yuki, to varying degrees of love for each.

Haru has split toned hair, naturally occurring, with the under layer being black and the top a shaggy white, and his eyes are a soft golden-brown, almost orange, color. We see this outfit when he’s out biking, it’s a bit more covered than some of his others. It consists of his usual piercings, a metal feather necklace, a black turtleneck, black pants, black biking boots, thigh straps, a greyish belt, and an off-white coat with a black fluff collar (I could only find white collared ones, but I included links so you can mod it how you like).

Rei Suwa from Buddy Daddies

Rei (voiced in Japanese by Koki Uchiyama and in English by David Matranga) is one of the main characters in the anime Buddy Daddies.

He works as an assassin with his partner Kazuki, but spends most of the rest of his time playing video games and learning how to look after their recently acquired daughter, Miri.

Rei has shaggy black hair, usually worn in a high ponytail with shaved sides when he’s on a job and down when he’s home, and his eyes are a deep almost black grey. He dresses in a less layered way than Kazuki, with a black t-shirt, a blue biker jacket, black-blue jeans, and black boots.

dabi from bnha

Dabi from My Hero Academia

Dabi (voiced by Hiro Shimono and Jason Liebrecht) is a member of the League of Villains in the anime and manga series My Hero Academia.  Dabi’s Quirk allows him to wield blue flames.  His intense dislike for Pro Heroes and tendency toward destruction make him a powerful foe.  There are plenty of Dabi costume sets available for purchase if you’re looking for an easy way to recreate his look.  Depending on which point in the story you prefer, you may need to add either a white or black wig and boots.  You can also DIY his costume with a black frock coat, scoop neck t-shirt, black pants, and a silver belt.  For the burnt remnants of his skin, use purple body paint to cover large portions of your face, neck, and arms.  Then use a black body crayon to create the illusion of folds and wrinkles.  Lastly, use a small brush and metallic silver body paint to add the staples.

professor sada from pokemon scarlet

Professor Sada from Pokémon Scarlet

Professor Sada is a character from the video game Pokémon Scarlet.  Alongside her husband Professor Turo, she serves as a main antagonist of the game.  She is the primary professor at Naranja Academy.  Professor Sada wears a fur-trimmed lab coat over a pair of orange shorts and a matching cropped tank top.  She also dons a pair of orange leg warmers and brown sandals.  To DIY her fringed attire, take a pair of scissors to an orange tank and shorts.  An orange necklace with a shark’s tooth or a multi-tooth necklace without orange may suit your needs, depending on your preference.  Likewise, Professor Sada’s belt can be achieved with two different waist chains, one in orange and one with dangling shells.  To cap off her accessories, add some orange to your hair and nails, as well as a bangle bracelet.  If you have a hot glue gun, you can add light pink fur to the collar of her coat.  Otherwise, some clever tucking of a faux fur scarf can achieve a similar look.

Shiki Tademaru From Kemono Jihen

Shiki Tademaru (voiced in Japanese by Natsuki Hanae and in English by A.J. Beckles) is one of the main characters in the anime/manga Kemono Jihen.

He is one of the employees of the supernatural agency that Inugami runs, and is also half-human, like Kabane. Shiki is part spider Kemono and has the ability to use spiderwebs.

He has short spikey greyish pink hair, pinkish-purple eyes, and his outfit is mildly spider themed to go with his powers. Shiki wears a grey t-shirt underneath his jacket, which is a muted magenta color decorated with a spider web, with black and white detailing along the sleeves and hems, grey pants, and black shoes with magenta soles.

Snake from Kuroshitsuji: Book of Circus

Snake (voiced in Japanese by Takuma Terashima and in English by Spike Spencer) is one of the secondary main characters in the anime/manga Kuroshitsuji/Black Butler.

Originally one of the first-string members of the Noah’s Ark Circus with an act to match his name, Snake eventually ended up coming to work at the Phantomhive manor, after the horrific end of all of his friends. In current storyline, he is on a mission with Finny, at Ciel’s order.

He has pale grey hair, matching eyelashes/eyebrows, golden snake-like eyes, and scaled skin. Snake carries around several of his own snakes because he can speak with them coherently, so he’s never usually seen without one. His outfit is very monochromatic, with the main highlights of his shirt being stand-out thick white stripes, while the rest is black detailed, with black pants, and thigh high lace up black boots.

Beast from Kuroshitsuji: Book of Circus

Beast (voiced in Japanese by Yuko Kaida and in English by Tia Ballard) is part of Noah’s Ark Circus in the anime/manga Kuroshitsuji/Black Butler, in the Book of Circus episode set.

She is one of the main first-string members in the circus, and specializes in the animal taming portion of the show, along with her pet tiger, Betty. She’s known the rest of the members of the first-string since she was young and is very close with them.

Beast has black ringlet-curled bob cut hair, red eyes, and theatrical black and red makeup. The outfit we usually see her in is a performers suit, very black and shiny and strappy, with lots of red flowing accents, including a red hairband with a large floral detail on top. She also has mesh gloves and stockings, topped with a diamond pattern, and black shin-high stiletto boots.

Dagger from Kuroshitsuji: Book of Circus

Dagger (voiced in Japanese by Nobuhiko Okamoto and in English by Michael Sinterniklaas) is one of the secondary main characters in the Book of Circus arc in the anime/manga Kuroshitsuji/Black Butler.

He is one of the first-string members of the Noah’s Ark Circus troupe, and their resident juggler and knife thrower. He tends to be a bit hot-headed when it comes to other people approaching Beast, but is generally rather friendly to others around him.

Dagger has light green eyes with purpley-red eyeshadow around them, red makeup dots on his cheeks, and blonde hair with black bangs (he had black hair as a child, it appears to be bleached). His outfit colors are similar to Snake’s, with a few more pops of colors. Dagger wears a red and black hat off-center on his head, a black and white striped shirt with a ruffled collar, a tan vest over top, black capri-style pants with a skirt piece over top, and black and white boots.

Kabane Kusaka From Kemono Jihen

Kabane Kusaka (voiced in Japanese by Natsumi Fujiwara and in English by Madeleine Morris) is the main character of the anime/manga Kemono Jihen.

He starts off the series completely isolated from people that aren’t his abusive aunt and cousin until he’s rescued by Inugami and taken to join his supernatural agency, where he meets Akira and Shiki. Kabane is half-human and is using the aid of the agency to try and find his parents.

Kabane has short, messy spiked black hair and big red eyes with very light and large eyebrows over top. The outfit that he wears is a reluctant hand-me-down from Shiki because he needed new clothes. It’s a two piece black and red shirt and jacket set with white skeleton detailing on the top half, and he wears black and white sneakers with red gloves finishing off the look.

Doll (Performance Dress) from Kuroshitsuji: Book of Circus

This is a follow-up article to the previous Doll one I did, but this one will be covering her performance outfit. If you would like to read up on how to make her Freckles look, it’s linked here!

I included the wig and scar makeup used in the prior tutorial, but you can’t see them past the headpiece usually, so that’s optional if you want to use them or not. This outfit is a lot more showy than her civilian outfit, mostly capitalizing on a rose motif. The dress is puffed up with a white rose petticoat trim, the headdress is comprised of white roses, and the rest of her accessories also mirror that theme. She emulates almost a ballet dancer stylized doll, while doing her tightrope balancing act.

For the parasol you may need to paint the handle if you want it to be completely accurate, and for the tights I was unable to find a pair split exactly in that style, so I included two pairs of long socks, please just use one from each to have the same effect.
