Carbon Costume

Kneemoi may look sweet but don’t take your eyes off her. She’s a shapeshifting grifter who has no issue stealing whatever she wants. Once she even stole all knowledge of Tai Chi! As one of Carmen Sandiego’s henchwomen, she is comfortable in a life of crime, something you probably shouldn’t bring to your Kneemoi cosplay.

Along with setting aside her criminal tendencies, Kneemoi cosplayers have a unique challenge. Kneemoi, in her normal state, is a pink floating ball with arms and, sometimes, a hose-like nose. A pink bodysuit is a good start, as are false lashes and pink face paint. You can add a pink skirt and pink flats if you would like a few more layers. And if you want to copy the nose she has in some variations, you can use skin-safe glue to attach a plastic hose over your nose.

Vi (voiced by Hailee Steinfeld) is the older sister of Jinx in the Arcane TV series.  Vi is a Zaunite vigilante who wields a pair of powerful gauntlets.  Vi’s costuming includes sturdy boots, striped trousers, and a red cropped jacket.  You can use an eyeliner pencil to add the “VI” tattoo on her left cheek.  Options exist for you to either purchase a cosplay costume set or create your own by mixing and matching different pieces, depending on your preference.  Finding a pair of replica gauntlets can get costly.  While there are also plans available for purchase if have access to a 3D printer, you can also achieve a similar (and more functional) look with a pair of metal gauntlets meant for medieval cosplay.  A little patience and rust-oleum paint can even add their distinctive blue color.

Alfred Pennyworth is as iconic as Batman himself. He’s the man who raised Bruce after the murder the Waynes. He is the man who keeps track of the Bat family when the number of vigilantes grows. And he’s the one that grounds Bruce when the burden of the superhero life gets to be too much.

There are a few ways you can pull off an Alfred cosplay. All of them involve a black suit, black bow tie, and black shoes with a white button down shirt. You can leave the shirt as-is or replace the buttons with black buttons. A fake mustache is a must, of course. When it comes to Alfred’s hair, though, you have more choices. You can use a bald cap or you can opt for white pomade and slick your hair back while getting Alfred’s mature, distinguished look.

Koichi Hirose is a character in the anime Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure. He is the deuteragonist of the fourth arc and appears again briefly in the fifth arc of the series.

Like Josuke, he becomes a stand user and wields Echoes.

Eikichi Onizuka (voiced by Wataru Tagaki and Steve Blum) is the main character of Great Teacher Onizuka.  Eikichi was formerly a delinquent and the leader of the Onibaku bike gang, though he later aspires to teaching after a run-in with a pretty girl at a mall.  Eikichi wears many outfits throughout the series, though one of his most recognizable might be the white suit and red tie he wears to teach a troublesome high school class.

All-Might is a main character in the hit anime, My Hero Academia. His real name is Toshinori Yagi. After sustaining permanent damage from One For All, his declining health reduced him to a very skinny man. The effects of his wounds make it difficult to sustain his muscular, empowered form for long durations of time. Due to the devastating impact on his heroic abilities, All-Might passes the Quirk to Deku. However, he must keep the secret that this is All-Might’s true form. Use the black eyeshadow to give your eyes a sunken appearance, and size up on the clothes to make this outfit extra baggy.

All-Might is a main character in the hit anime, My Hero Academia. He is a famous Pro-Hero, even better known as the  Number 1 hero, who saves people with a smile. For that reason, Deku looks up to All-Might as a role model, and he wants to save people as well. His desire to do right as a hero convinces All-Might to pass along his One for All Quirk to him. He is also a teacher at U.A High School, where he must maintain his muscular form to conceal his secret. His design is meant to resemble American comic book heroes, so use the black face paint to draw the lines on his face.

Ms. Joke is a character in the hit anime, My Hero Academia. She is a Pro-Hero known as Smile Hero, or Ms. Joke, though her real name is Emi Fukukado. Her Quirk is Outburst, which forces her enemies to burst out into uncontrollable laughter and allows her to take them down. Cheerful and outgoing, Ms. Joke is always indulgent in her goofy sense of humor. She shamelessly flirts with Aizawa, who appears to be her polar opposite.
