Megumi Fushiguro (voiced by Yuma Uchida and Robbie Daymond) is a first-year student at Tokyo Jujutsu High training to become a sorcerer in the anime and manga series Jujutsu Kaisen.  Megumi is secretive and stoic, determined to protect those he thinks are good including Yuji Itadori.  Megumi wears a standard Jujutsu High uniform with dark socks and brown ankle boots.  If you don’t want to purchase a pre-made costume, you can pair a dark navy blue mandarin collar shirt with matching pants with a high enough hem to show of your boots instead.

Cole MacGrath (voiced by Jason Cottle) is the main character of inFamous. Whether he is the hero or the villain depends on the player. Either way, he’s got a journey ahead of him that changes not only his world but the world around him.

Cole dresses like a man who knows he has an adventure coming up in his life. Green cargo pants and thigh pouches work with hiking shoes to make sure he’s ready for just about anything coming at him. Add in fingerless gloves, a two-tone jacket, and a cross-body bad and your cosplay is ready to go.

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.

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.
