Adrian Veidt is a character in HBO’s Watchmen portrayed by Jeremy Irons. He used to fight crime under the name Ozymandias, but he retired from heroics to become a businessman. However, his master intelligence and business skills led him down a villainous path. Deciding to “save” humanity from nuclear annihilation, he plotted a fatal alien invasion. Adrian and Dr. Manhattan made a deal that he would erase his memories in exchange for a utopia under the care of the clones of Mr. Phillips and Ms. Crookshanks. For the costume, drape the purple fabric over the bodysuit and secure it with the gold belt.

Illustrated by Tatsuki Fujimoto, the series was serialized in Shonen Jump for two years with new chapters bi-weekly. Chainsaw Man takes place in a world where devils are born from fears.

Kyo (voiced in Japanese by Yuma Uchida and in English by Jerry Jewell) is one of the primary main characters in the anime/manga Fruits Basket.

He is the cat out of the Sohma’s cursed zodiac line, and lives with Yuki, Shigure, and Tohru. He tends to be argumentative and prone to fighting, but is kinder once he warms up to Tohru. In addition to being the cat, he also has a larger cursed ‘true form’ that he hides from everyone.

Kyo has short, semi-spiky orange hair, and orangey-brown eyes. Like the rest of the characters, he has a large variety of outfits, but for this, I went with his school uniform. It consists of a dark blue shirt with matching slacks, and he wears a yellow shirt underneath. The personal touches he includes are a pair of orange high-tops, and a white/red bracelet that he uses to contain his true form.

Adam (voiced in Japanese by Takehito Koyasu and in English by David Wald) is one of the main characters and technically the main antagonist in the Sk8 the Infinity anime.

He is one of the three founders of “S”, along with Kaoru and Kojiro, when they were teenagers. He uses “S” as an escape from the political future that his aunts are trying to push him into, with Tadashi (his friend from childhood that taught him how to skate originally) as the only one in his household’s circle that knows his secret.

Despite having a heavily professional look while in the presence of his aunts, while at “S” he becomes a completely different persona, becoming ‘Adam’ over ‘Ainosuke’. His usually carefully brushed blue hair becomes spiked and wild, and his red eyes are hidden behind an ornate mask, obscuring his identity. He has a couple rather elaborate outfits while skating, though this is his main one. It’s styled off of a matador look, bright red with large amounts of detailing, with the whole thing being very skin tight. His elbow, shoulder, and knee guards are pointed, and he wears tall black boots with red soles and a matching red heart adorning the top.

Angel Devil is a character in the best selling manga and hit anime, Chainsaw Man. Illustrated by Tatsuki Fujimoto, the series was serialized in Shonen Jump for two years with new chapters bi-weekly. Chainsaw Man takes place in a world where devils are born from fears. Angel Devil may represent a fear of religion. He is kind towards humans, but touching him removes years from your life. Although he and Aki grows close, Makima ensures their demises.

Dr. D. Light is a character from the horror game It’s Not Me, It’s My Basement.  Dr. D. Light tries to help Embry, who has told their friends and neighbors that their parents are very ill.  What he comes to discover, however, is a much darker secret involving a monster in Embry’s basement.  Dr. D. Light’s appearance is based heavily on those of a medieval plague doctor.  The simplest way to recreate his look is to purchase a plague doctor costume set, which will come with a hat, hood, gloves, and a long jacket with a cowl.  Replace the plague mask with a round white mask. With a little paint, some markers, and a dose of creativity, you can alter the mask to look more like the one from the game.  Lastly, use a sun-shaped charm and jewelry cord to make the Doctor’s necklace.
