Carbon Costume

The life of Hiyori Iki (Bryn Apprill / Maaya Uchida) first intertwined with Yato’s and Yukine’s when she unwittingly “saved” Yato from being hit by a passing bus. Now, whenever she falls asleep, her soul can leave her body in the form of a half-Phantom with a pink “lifeline” tail. This state won’t last forever, but Hiyori uses the time she has to defend her supernatural friends from matters going on way over her head.

This costume guide combines elements from two Hiyori outfits: her school dress and her outerwear — the latter of which is much easier to recreate from items you’ll likely find in your own closet.

Shinnosuke “Shinno” Kanamura left is hometown 13 years ago to pursue his dream as a musician. He planned to leave with his girlfriend, but she had a sudden responsibility that made her stay. Now, Shinno is heading back to his hometown. The younger version of Shinno from 13 years ago (depicted above) also appears in town while he is there. This younger version of Shinno turns things upside down in Her Blue Sky (Sora no Aosa o Shiru Hito yo).

Smiles wears a mask to hide her front teeth and braces. She is a popular video star that talks about seeking fitness. One day, an incident sparks her friendship with a quiet boy named Cherry. Smile connects with Cherry the way she can’t with others in Words Bubbling Up Like Cider (Cider no You ni Kotoba ga Wakiagaru).

Kugaha was one of Bishamon’s many shinki (soul-weapons), and used his presence in the immense crowd that is her collection to take her down from the inside! Not even Bishamon’s Blessed Shinki, Kazuma, caught on until it was almost too late. Kugaha’s function in Bisha’s “family” of lost souls was that of doctor/healer; he had an arsenal of medicines and poisons to keep his mistress under his control.

Kugaha’s costume is surprisingly easy to assemble using very simple garments. The most complicated part, perhaps, is his headband; it can be recreated using the last three items on this list.

Akashi is an engineering college student, and is a rational girl. Her personality can be stand-offish at times. She occasionally shows friendliness to Protagonist, but won’t hold back on calling him an “idiot”. The only thing she is afraid of is moths. Akashi and Protagonist make the most of college in The Tatami Galaxy (Yojouhan Shinwa Taikei).

Iruma Suzuki (Laura Stahl / Ayumu Murase) walks a fine line between being an adorable sweetheart and the consummate doormat. He’ll do anything to help a person in want or need, if they do so much as say “please.” So when the demon Lord Sullivan asks him to become his adopted grandson (and Iruma’s extremely irresponsible parents don’t object), naturally, young Iruma couldn’t refuse! Plot twist: Sullivan is also the principal of the underworld’s local demon school, where human-eating demons with no concept of friendship will have their first “taste” of human companionship … if they can figure Iruma out!

Death the Kid, or just “Kid,” is a main character in the anime Soul Eater. He is the son of Death and a top fighter at the Death Weapon Meister Academy. As a meister, his two weapons are the Demon Twin Guns, Liz and Patty Thompson. After his father dies, he inherits his position as leader and headmaster of the academy. He takes pride in his title as the new Shinigami, but he is very uptight. He is obsessed with symmetry, so you’ll need two guns and two rings, one for each finger!

In the anime series Kakegurui, Runa Yomozuki (voiced by Mayu Udono and Kayli Mills) is the leader of the election committee, as well as a member of student council at the Hyakkaou Private Academy.  Small of stature, Runa looks much younger than many of her peers and can often be seen eating lollipops to satisfy her sweet tooth.  Runa’s outfit consists of the standard school uniform for Hyakkaou, paired with thigh high striped socks and an orange rabbit kigurumi sweatshirt.
