Nimona is the eponymous protagonist of Nimona, a fantasy graphic novel written by ND Stevenson (who you may recall as the creator of She-Ra and the Princesses of Power.) Nimona is a young, feisty shapeshifter who allies with villain Ballister Blackheart to destroy the Institute. Despite his strong code of ethics, Nimona will do anything to come out victorious. An animated Netflix adaptation will debut in the summer of 2023.

Brawler (voiced in Japanese by Shunsuke Takeuchi and in English by Zeno Robinson) is one of the main characters in the anime Akudama Drive.

He is very excited about seeking out strong opponents and causes a large amount of chaos and destruction in the quest to find them. During the course of the series he ends up becoming close with Hoodlum, and gets really excited hyping up how impressive he makes himself sound (despite it being a massive lie).

Brawler has deep red dreads and golden brown eyes, with metal bead detailing in his hair and pointed eyeliner on his eyes. He wears a set of necklaces in tandem with the detonation necklace, but aside from his hair beads that’s the only accessories he has. He wears a green motorcycle jacket with an orange under layer, and a pair of blue jeans with black chaps over them. The final part of his outfit is a pair of black boots.

Kaname Hagiri (voiced by Eiji Sekiguchi and Aaron Hatch) is an antagonist from the Yu Yu Hakusho anime series.  Called “Sniper,” Kaname is a former member of the Sensui Seven who often uses small dice as a weapon.  Kaname has black hair and is most often shown wearing a baggy t-shirt and grey jeans under a red leather jacket.  If a leather motorcycle jacket is out of your budget, consider using a cheaper bomber jacket in its place.  Finish the look with fingerless gloves and a set of microdice to wield against your enemies.

Ayame (voiced in Japanese by Takahiro Sakurai and in English by Christopher R. Sabat) is one of the members of the Sohma family in the anime/manga Fruits Basket).

He is part of the older group of the zodiac members and the older brother of Yuki Sohma. Ayame is the Snake in the zodiac, and one of his main passions is the costume and dresses shop that he runs with Mine Kuramae.

Ayame has gold eyes and very long white hair with bangs. Due to the nature of his shop, he has a wide variety of outfits, so I decided to just pick one. It consists of two layers, a long white one and a matched length red one with gold fastenings up the entire front. With this one, in the shots I could find, he was wearing slippers with the rest of them, so I included a pair of shoes similar to ones he wears with another red outfit.

Cornelius Fillmore is the main character of Fillmore! He is a seventh grader at X Middle School. Once a former juvenile delinquent, he is now a member of the school safety patrol. Ingrid is his best friend and main partner on the patrol.

Doctor (voiced in Japanese by Megumi Ogata and in English by Brittany Lauda) is one of the main characters in the anime Akudama Drive.

Out of the members of the main group, she has one of the higher prison sentences due to several severe instances of murder and malpractice. She enjoys the feeling of being cruel, and tends to act out of petty revenge in drastic ways for the simplest of offenses against her.

She has voluminous pink hair with strands of light blue at the ends partially tied back with a black scrunchie, and she has goldish eyes with blue eyeshadow around them. Her theming is very pink and purple, with gold accenting. She has pink half rectangle glasses  and a purpley-gold stethescope chest piece necklace. Her outfit consists of a very tight purple bodysuit with a sheer purple corset piece and micro skirt over top, she wears a white labcoat as a jacket, and has thigh high black boots with purple heels. Doctor has deep peach lipstick, pinkish-purple and blue painted nails, and she wears the same detonator choker as the rest of the group.

Elizabeth “Liz” Thompson (voiced by Akeno Watanabe in Japanese and Jamie Marchi in English) is a character from the manga and anime series Soul Eater.  She is the elder sister of Patty Thompson and the official weapon partner of Death the Kid.  Liz is a tall, slender woman with honey-blonde hair.  She wears a red crop top and dark jeans, with a white stubby tie and black heeled boots.  To complete her look, you’ll need two silver bangle bracelets for each wrist.  Her hat is rather unique, but any denim cowboy hat will get the job done.  She and her sister also wear cropped white jackets on occasion.

Snow White (voiced by Chloe Grace Moretz) is a woman transformed in Red Shoes and the Seven Dwarfs.  A pair of magical red shoes change Snow White’s appearance before she meets the Seven Dwarfs, including Prince Merlin.  While transformed, Snow White goes by the name Red Shoes to conceal her identity.  Snow White and Red Shoes wear the same outfit, with minor changes to the way it fits, so you can choose to wear the costume either way, depending on your preference.  Obviously, the most important part of your recreation is a pair of red high-heeled shoes.  You’ll also need a white top–you can opt for a longer-sleeved peasant top with a square neckline, or perhaps a shorter version with a lace front.  A dark red skirt and waist belt complete the look.
