Little Nero’s Pizza Delivery Guy from Home Alone
“Keep the change ya filthy animal!” The unnamed Little Nero’s Pizza Delivery Guy is a minor character in the movie Home Alone. Kevin McCallister orders from Little Nero’s Pizza, a (fake) pizza parlor in Chicago. He uses clips from an old Hollywood movie to converse with the delivery boy, giving off the impression that he’s an adult. When the delivery boy asks for a tip, Kevin speeds up the movie to a gun scene. Believing the gunshots are real, the delivery boy sprints away. This cleverness makes pizza delivery scene one the most famous in the movie, and a similar scene occurs again in Home Alone 2.
Nezuko Kamado from Demon Slayer
Nezuko Kamado is a main character in the hit anime Demon Slayer: Kimestu No Yaiba. She is the younger sister of Tanjiro, and the sole survivor of the demon attack that killed the Kamado family. However, she was turned into a demon. Nezuko travels in a wooden box because demons can’t go out in sunlight. She can shrink herself to fit into the box, as well as grow larger in attack. Nezuko sees all humans as family and vows never to hurt them. She even refuses blood, which is why she wears her bamboo gag, and instead gains her strength through long periods of rest. She loves Tanjiro dearly, as he is the only one who can calm her down.
Fat Mac from It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia
Ronald “Mac” McDonald is a main character of It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia. In season 7, Mac gains a significant amount of weight, earning him the nickname “Fat Mac.” However, everyone but Mac seems to recognize this. He tries to explain that he’s “cultivating mass,” mistaking his fat for muscle. While this costume guide contains a belly stuffer, Rob McElhenney, who plays the aforementioned character, actually gained sixty pounds for a realistic effect.
Zenitsu Agatsuma from Demon Slayer
Zenitsu Agatsuma is a character in the hit anime Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba. He passes Final Selection and becomes a member of the Demon Slayer Corps. But unlike Tanjiro, he is cowardly and easily admits defeat. He has a huge crush on Nezuko, and becomes enraged at Tanjiro for hiding her. Needless to say, Zenitsu has a tendency to overreact. Although he proves himself a worthy slayer when he uses the Thunder Breathing technique to defeat the older brother spider demon.
Beast from X-Men
Beast, or Dr. Hank McCoy, is a founding member of the X-Men. His powers as a mutant include super strength and heightened senses. Despite his animalistic appearance, Beast possesses brilliant intelligence, and can communicate eloquently. He is a professor at the Xavier Institute as well as an activist for the acceptance of mutants in society. This guide follows his comic book iteration. Use the blue paint to cover your entire face as well as to paint the pointed ears. Some appropriate additions might include a pair of glasses and a lab coat.
Tomura Shigaraki from My Hero Academia
Tomura Shigaraki is the Leader of the Villains, and the main antagonist of the anime My Hero Academia. Initially his goal was to kill All Might, but it then became destroying all society. He is the most powerful villain because of his strength and intellect. His Quirk is Decay, meaning whatever he touches with all five of his fingers will disintegrate. The most obvious characteristic is the disembodied hands on his face and body. These hands are actually remnants of his family, after accidentally murdering them with his Quirk. Despite their bizarre appearance, Tomura admits the hands bring him calmness and peace. Our costume guide only features the hand for the face.

Similar to how she uses the Ladybug Miraculous to become Miraculous Ladybug, she uses the Mouse Miraculous to become Multimouse.
