Carbon Costume Anime
Jet Black
A former member of the Inter Solar System Police (ISSP), Jet Black is the captain of the converted interstellar fishing trawler Bebop on the anime TV series Cowboy Bebop. He commands a crew of bounty hunters, acting as pilot, father-figure, the muscle and motivator. He is a big, burly man with a warm heart and a protective nature, especially towards his ramshackle crew. As a gifted mechanic he wears coveralls with ripped sleeves and sports a bionic arm and distinctive facial hair. For the boots, cut off the bottom of some high grey socks and slip them over grey boots. For the beard, cut up the mustache portion and use it to make the sharp cheek edges.
Sasuke Uchiha
Sasuke Uchiha is the silent, brooding, angst-ridden member of ninja Team 7 in the anime TV series Naruto. One of the last members of his clan and the brother of the man who killed the rest, he dedicates his life to exterminating his brother. His fanatical obsession with achieving that goal leads him to abandon Team 7 and his ninja training, eventually becoming an international criminal. This guide covers his outfit in Part 1, well before he attains international infamy. It is a simple outfit of a blue high-collared shirt and white pants. For the shirt, order it a size or two up, trim the sleeves and pop the collar. Also trim the arm warmers and stitch on the blue details.
Ed
Ed is an eccentric, wacky 13-year-old computer and hacking genius aboard the titular interplanetary vessel Bebop on the anime TV series Cowboy Bebop. A bit androgynous and very unusual in personality, Ed never wears shoes, uses her feet like hands, rarely walks anywhere (choosing to roll, hitch a ride on someone’s back or crawl), has zero attention span and carries her computer on her head. Cheerful and animated, she acts as the comic relief during the show’s darker moments. She wears a simple outfit of spandex and tee shirt with her VR goggles and football-shaped hair.
Shikamaru Nara
The laziest of the bunch and least inclined to fight, Shikamaru Nara is a ninja-in-training and member of Team 10 on the anime series Naruto. A brilliant, strategic mind allows him to sleep during class, avoid all work, exert minimal effort and still succeed in all his tasks and win physical battles. This guide cover his Part 1 genin outfit at the very beginning of his training. The tricky part is his jacket – buy a large grey bolero shrug (yes, the men too), crop the sleeves and add the green trim/details. If you can’t find short pants, crop a regular-length pair.

Rintaro Okabe returns, but he’s much darker, dealing with the grief of losing Kurisu Makise as well as the pressure of stopping World War 3 from happening in the future.
Quatre Raberba Winner
Sweet, gentle, musical and peaceful, Quatre Raberba Winner does not at first fit in with the rest of the pilots on the anime TV show Gundam Wing. Although he dislikes violence, he nevertheless pilots gundam Sandrock and displays incredible endurance from his childhood in the desert. The series enigmatically hints that he may be “the heart of outer space” due to his empathetic abilities. He wears a colorful ensemble of a light pink shirt and dark purple vest and distinctive bugeye goggles.
Nina Tucker
