Cartoons
King Candy from Wreck-It Ralph
King Candy (voiced by Alan Tudyk) might look like a sweetheart but he’s the biggest villain on the track in Sugar Rush. And his villainy doesn’t stop when the flag drops. When Ralph threatens the sweet setup the King has going, he lets the big guy see the full force of his royal anger.
As the King it makes sense that King Candy’s outfit is one of the most lavish in the game. His crown is narrow but tall, sitting high on the bald dome of his head. It might be hard to find an exact match for the crown but a bald cape and some fake eyebrows repurposed for the wings on the side of his head will at least give you the royal ‘do. A purple coat with tails, a red bow tie, gold pantaloons, gold tights, and purple shoes are the most eye-catching parts of his outfit.
There is a little bit of DIY with this costumes, however. Gold harem pants can be shortened into the King’s pantaloons since finding a pair ready-made is very hard to do and expensive. And the white shirt under the coat can be accented with white paper doilies to recreate the large ruff of the King’s coat. Use a red sharpie to color in the peppermint swirls at the top of the doilies and find yourself a costume cane and you’re ready to go!
Yukiatsu from Anohana: The Flower We Saw That Day
Atsumu “Yukiastu” Mastuyuki is a handsome student in an elite school. He seems to have everything together. The only problem is his childhood traumas, including the unresolved grief he holds for the death of his childhood friend years ago. One day he is contacted to meet up with his old group of childhood friends in memory of the mutual friend they lost. Yukiatsu grapples with his grief and his childhood friends in Anohana: The Flower We Saw That Day (Anohana Bokutachi Mada Minu).
Aang from Avatar: The Last Airbender
Aang is a youthful Avatar, originating from the lost Airbender tribe. He’s discovered by a young Water Nation girl named Katara, mysteriously encased in a block of ice. His childhood began ages ago, with most of his friends from his early memories having grown up. Luckily for him, he finds friendship and camaraderie with Katara, her brother Sokka, and even an old foe. But can they keep his childish nature in check so he can save the world?
Yadina Riddle from Xavier Riddle and the Secret Museum
Yadina Riddle (voiced by Zoe Hatz) is the kind of girl other little girls look up to. It’s hard not to when she grows up to be the president of the United States! Determined and curious she is the perfect companion for her brother’s adventures. And the perfect heroine in her own!
Cosplaying as Yadina is fairly easy. A black wig in short ponytails, a blue t-shirt, pink coveralls with a star painted on the chest, black converse, and a stuffed turtle toy are all you need. That and a can-do attitude!
Muichiro Tokito
Muichiro Tokito is a character in Demon Slayer: Kimetsu No Yaiba. Known as the Mist Pillar, he is one of the nine Hashiras of the Demon Slayer Corps. At fourteen years old, he is the youngest Hashira. He is aloof and unaware, usually staring at the sky instead of paying attention. Although he takes his position very seriously and proves to be an excellent swordsman. While we don’t know much about him in the anime, the manga reveals more. For instance, when he was eleven, demons killed his twin brother. And when Nezuko regains her humanity, she distinctly remembers Muichiro.
Kitty Katswell from T.U.F.F Puppy
Kitty might be the number one agent in the Turbo Undercover Fighting Force but that doesn’t mean her job is a breeze. Especially not when she has a partner like Dudley. They mange to make it work though, thanks in no small part to Kitty’s extensive training, determined attitude, and wide range of skills.
Candlehead from Wreck-It Ralph
In Wreck-It Ralph, Candlehead (Voiced by Katie Lowes) is the space case among the racers of Sugar Rush. This game within a movie is home to lots of adorable little race car drivers, all of them sugar sweet in costume even if their personalities are a little sour. Candhead, however, is sweet inside and out. She’s the comedian of the group and loves to have a good laugh.
Dressing up as Candlehead takes a little bit of handiwork. A brown beanie, pink felt, and an LED candle can be combined to recreate her hat. After that you just need a pink track jacket, brown shirt, pink skirt, brown leggings, black boots, and pink laces for her outfit. Don’t forget a green wig styled into pigtails to round out the costume!
Love from Kuu Kuu Harajuku
As the brains behind HJ5, Love (voiced by Daisy Masterman) is usually getting herself into trouble with some new gizmo or other. Whether it’s new tech, potions, or crazy schemes she is the one pushing the envelope to try and make things go off without a hitch for her and her band.
Cosplaying as Love is all about details. A long black wig can be pinned up for the volume of her hair and then decorated with heart clips, then topped with a blue bow headband. A red undershirt is cuffed at the elbows then covered with a grey pullover so only the cuffs and collar stick out. You can sew a white lace ruffle around the hem of your black and grey plaid skirt to get her exact look. And then finish off the costume with red over-the-knee socks and calf-high red high tops.
Claudia from The Dragon Prince
Claudia (Racquel Belmonte) is an eccentric dark magic sorceress in training, known for her off-beat sense of humor and general take on things. It is she who gives Callum the mysterious orb known as the Primal Stone, which comes to use during his quest to bring peace between the kingdoms of Xadia and Katolis.
In the first season of The Dragon Prince, Claudia wears a full black gown underneath what’s later revealed to be a black and gold tunic. Once she begins adventuring on her own, she loses the hem length and opts for the tunic and breeches she continues to wear for most of the second and third seasons.
Young Induna from Frozen 2
Queen Induna is a character in the Frozen movies. She was the mother of Elsa and Anna, who died in a storm at sea with their father and husband, King Agnarr. In the second movie, we learn they sailed to find the Ahtohallan, which harbors the secret to their daughter’s ice magic. We also learn Induna was part of the Northuldra tribe because of the pattern on her shawl. Upon reaching Ahtohallan herself, Elsa discovers that the voice calling to her was the memory of young Induna’s call. Because of Induna’s selfless act of saving young Agnarr, nature gifted Elsa with ice powers, making her the fifth spirit. Although we only see her through very few flashbacks, young Induna appears in bonus footage with young Agnarr. For this costume guide, wrap the purple ribbon around the tops of the boots.
