Muzan Kibutsuji is the primary antagonist of the hit anime Demon Slayer: Kimetsu No Yaiba. He’s the first demon of his kind, so he possesses immense power and intelligence. Muzan slaughtered the Kamado family and turned Nezuko into a demon. Therefore he shows zero mercy, killing humans and demons alike. While he disguises himself as a father, he can alter his form into a female or a child. Tanjiro plans to defeat him, and with the help of Lady Tamayo, he’s well on his way.

Ranch it up! Advocate to legalize ranch in this casual, mismatched outfit from The Eric Andre Show. Comedian and host Eric Andre goes up to people in Manhattan and talks nonsense, mainly about ranch dressing. You may recognize Ranch It Up from the “Cheers, I’ll drink to that bro” reaction meme. Crop the t-shirt with a pair of scissors.

Amenadiel (D.B. Woodside) is a main character on Lucifer. He is an archangel and Lucifer’s older brother. He was also the angel who helped Penelope Decker give birth to Chloe. He arrives in Los Angeles to convince Lucifer to go back to Hell, as his absence will create chaos. In failing this, he stays to help his brother become a better individual. Amenadiel plays by the rules and strives to stay on the path that their dad (aka God) has created. He is well-meaning and moral, though can sometimes be blissfully unaware of human practicalities. Like his brother, the longer he remains on Earth, the more human he becomes. In season four, Amenadiel and Dr. Linda have a baby named Charlie, who is mortal like his mother. This is his outfit when he first encounters Lucifer on Earth.

Giyuu Tomioka is a character from the hit anime, Demon Slayer: Kimetsu No Yaiba. Known as the Water Pillar, he is one of the nine Hashiras of the Demon Slayer Corps. In the first episode, Giyuu encounters Tanjiro trying to save Nezuko. He delivers the harsh truth: she is a demon and she must be killed. When Tanjiro fights back, he is impressed with his skill. Giyuu is rather stoic and unpleasant, as reinforced by Shinobu‘s teasing that nobody likes him. Although unlike the other Hashiras, he shows mercy towards Tanjiro and argues to let Nezuko live.

Eve (Inbar Lavi) is a character in the fourth season of Lucifer. She’s the first human woman in creation. She’s an energetic party girl with a tendency to act on a reckless impulse. While intended to be Adam’s wife, Eve had a secret relationship with Lucifer Morningstar. Unhappy with her husband in heaven, she finds a way to Earth and reunite with Lucifer. This throws Chloe Decker and Lucifer’s budding romance into a loop as Eve becomes his girlfriend again. But Lucifer breaks it off when he realizes she wants the old devil, admitting he has changed. Thinking returning to Hell would make him more like his old self, she brings demons to Earth, accidentally fulfilling a prophecy. However she redeems herself by helping prevent the archangel Amenadiel’s infant son from being taken by the demons. Eve realizes she is out of touch with people’s feelings and chooses to explore Earth to find herself.

Bismuth is a character in Steven Universe. She is a former and current member of the Crystal Gems. During the Rebellion, she worked as a blacksmith, but then she got into a conflict of interest with Rose Quartz. Bismuth got bubbled and remained in the Pink Dimension until being freed by Steven. She proposed the same idea that she had to Rose: the Breaking Point, a weapon that could shatter any gems, even Diamonds. Like his mother, Steven rejected this idea and after an intense battle, he bubbled Bismuth again. He brings her back in the final fight against Homeworld, where she rejoins the Crystal Gems. Uzo Aduba, who you might recognize from Orange is the New Black, voices Bismuth. This costume requires some sewing. Sew the pink star onto the apron and the black star onto the right arm of the bodysuit.
