His hero name is Lemillion, and he wears an outfit that emulates classic comic heroes. His Quirk is Permutation and it allows him to pass through solid objects, though he cannot safely do this while wearing his school uniform, as only his body can go through, leaving his clothes behind. His hero costume is constructed from his own hair.
Mirio has golden blonde hair worn gently spiked up, and blue eyes that make him look like an old-style cartoon character. His Lemillion costume is a bodysuit with segmented blue and white parts, golden detailing including the large 1,000,000 across his chest, red gloves, a long red cape, and tall knee-covering white and gold boots.

Out of Roxas’ friends, he’s the most hot-headed, and tends to jump to conclusions without backup.
Hayner has light golden hair, worn in a largely spiked up wave towards the back of his head, and his eyes are a beautiful brown color. His KH2 outfit consists of a black tanktop with a white chalky looking skull drawn across the entire front, a light forest green cropped vest that he wears open over top of it, camo print scrunched leg capris that go down almost to his ankles, matching slip on shoes with white tips, and the outfit is finished off with a studded bracelet that matches his eyes, and a corded necklace with a golden X as the jewelry piece.
Evan from Superbad

Evan, like many of the characters that Michael Cera plays is an awkward and nerdy character at his school. To dress like Evan wear a striped polo, yellow half-zip jacket with a green shirt and khaki pants, or a green jacket with a white polo and brown pants. This would make for a fun group costume with Seth and McLovin.
