Director Ton (voiced by Sota Arai and Josh Petersdorf) is Retsuko‘s boss on the animated show Aggretsuko.  As the director of the accounting department, Ton makes Retsuko’s life at work very difficult.  Ton is an anthropomorphic big and wears a short-sleeved button down, a green tie, and dark slacks.

Washimi (voiced by Komegumi Koiwasaki in the original Japanese and Tara Platt in the English dub) is a secretary bird who is, fittingly, the secretary for the president of Chalaryman Trading Company. She is no-nonsense hard-kicking pragmatist who balances the more flighty natures of her two best friends Gori and Retsuko. That’s not to say she doesn’t have a soft side, though. You just have to get close to see it!

To cosplay as Washimi you’ll want to start with a white wig that is long enough to style back with silver hair pins that mimic her feathers. A white shirt and blazer pair with a black pencil skirt and yellow leggings to set up her work style. And, finally, yellow pumps finish off the look.

Haida (voiced by Shingo Kato in the original Japanese and Ben Diskin in the English dub) is a laid-back hyena with a crush on the shows title character, Retsuko. While he spends most of his time at work, he’s known to haunt record shops and punk shows in his off-hours. When he’s not kicking coffee cans and landing face-up in a puddle he’s a great calm counterpoint to the high-energy chaos that is Retsuko.

To get Haida’s off-hours look you’ll want to start with a messy brunette wig. Makeup pencils can recreate his spots as freckles too. After that all you need is a leather bike jacket, a red and black striped shirt, black jeans, and black boots.

Fenneko (voiced by Mina Inoue in the original Japanese and Katelyn Gault in the English dub) is a cool-headed fox that works in the accounting department of Chalaryman Trading Company with Retsuko and Haida. Where Retsuko is high-energy and loud, Fenneko is reserved and quiet. Until you get a couple of beers into her that is. But don’t let her quiet nature fool you. She’s got her eye on everything and picks up on the latest gossip faster than the best tabloids.

Fenneko’s most iconic look is her work outfit. You can replicate this look with a white blonde wig and cream colored leggings to mimic her ears and fur. A blue vest, white blouse, blue skirt, and pair of black heels round out her outfit. Keep your phone in your hand for social media deep dives and you’re rocking Fenneko’s look!

Gori (voice by Maki Tsuruta in the original Japanese and by G.K. Bowes in the English dub) is a big-hearted gorilla at the head of marketing for Chalaryman Trading Company. She is best friend’s with the CEO’s secretary and quickly becomes close friends with Retsuko. Gori feels deeply and isn’t afraid to show it to her friends though she keeps it cool at work. And for good reason: she is one half of the most powerful duo in the company!

To get Gori’s look you need a few key pieces. Her signature pink midi and matching pink heels are the most important parts of the costume. After that you’ll need gold stud earrings and a gold bead necklace. Finish off the costume with a black bobbed wig and you’re good to go!
