He is the technical leader of the Noah’s Ark Circus, as well as a first-string member.

Kazuya [also known as Naru] (voiced in Japanese by Yuuki Tai and in English by Todd Haberkorn) is one of the main characters in the anime/manga Ghost Hunt. He is the one that hires Mai to work for Shibuya Psychic Research, which he also owns, because he initially demanded that she work to repay the equipment she broke and the injury she caused. The nickname ‘Naru’ is one that Mai gave him, as an abbreviation for ‘narcissist’. His whole appearance…

Nagisa (voiced in Japanese by Kana Asumi and in English by Xanthe Huynh) is a secondary main character in the Puella Magi Madoka Magica series. For this piece I’ve chosen her magical girl outfit, but I’ll do a follow-up for her civilian outfit later. She started off the series as a Witch and later ends up becoming a key part of the group, as well as becoming a magical girl like the others. As the youngest of the group she’s a lot more childish an…

Gabriel Agreste (voiced by Keith Silverstein in English) is the main antagonist of Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug & Cat Noir. He has several different iterations, including Hawk Moth. His Shadow Moth version shares a similar purple color palette, with a few differences. To recreate this particular villainous look, you’ll need a purple tail coat. Though it may not be possible to find one with the particular peacock-inspired tails of the cartoon orig…

Hoodlum (voiced in Japanese by Subaru Kimura and in English by Kellen Goff) is one of the main characters in the anime Akudama Drive. While he is classified in the same tier as the other akudama, he has the least amount of years on his sentence, only being a petty thief. He likes to brag otherwise making it seem like he’s got more crimes under his belt, which gets Brawler’s very enthusiastic attention, much to his excitement. Hoodlum’s got a ligh…

Claude (voiced in Japanese by Takahiro Sakurai and in English by Jason Douglas) is one of the main characters in the second season of the anime Kuroshitsuji/Black Butler. He is a demon butler like Sebastian is to Ciel, but works for Alois Trancy instead. He seems to care much less about Alois’s wellbeing than Sebastian cares about Ciel (the bar is very low), seeming to only consider Alois his future feed. Claude wears a rather typical butler’s su…
