Deidara from Naruto

Deidara (voiced in Japanese by Katsuhiko Kawamoto and in English by Roger Craig Smith) is part of the main group of antagonists in the latter half of the Naruto franchise.

He is the youngest member of the Akatsuki, and specializes in clay creations and explosives, in combination. Throughout his involvement with the Akatsuki, he was partnered with Sasori, and later on, Tobi.

Deidara has long, golden hair, worn partially up in a very high ponytail, with the bangs parted heavily over one side, draping all the way down to his chin, over his missing-nin designated slashed Iwagakure headband. His visible eye is a light blue, and the other one is often covered by (in addition to his hair) a long-range scope. He wears the standard Akatsuki cloak, as well as a dark tank-top over a mesh one, elastic cuffed capris in the same shade, white spat wrapped ninja sandals, and a blue-ish teal ring with the kanji ‘sho’. Around his waist he wears pouches filled with clay that he uses with the mouths on his hands and chest, and the look is finished off with black nail polish on his fingers and toes.

Itachi Uchiha from Naruto

Itachi (voiced in Japanese by Hideo Ishikawa and in English by Skip Stellrecht) is a major character in the Naruto franchise.

He is Sasuke Uchiha’s older brother, a former member of the Anbu, and a prominent member of the Akatsuki after defecting from the village of Konoha. While part of Akatsuki, he is partnered with Kisame Hoshigaki.

Itachi has long black hair, worn down in the front in long side-draped bangs, and his eyes, with deep set bags underneath them, are a dark greyish black, though more often he’s shown using the Sharingan, turning his eyes red. He wears a slashed version of the Konoha headband, signifying his status as missing nin, as well as a metal circled necklace, blackish purple nailpolish, and a ring like the rest of the Akatsuki, with his being red with the kanji ‘shu’. His under layer is typical ninja wear like the majority of the rest of the cast, with a slightly meshed dark top with elasticized matching capri pants, as well as typical ninja sandals with white spats on top. He wears an Akatsuki cloak over top of all of this.

Riza Hawkeye from Fullmetal Alchemist

Riza (voiced in Japanese by Michiko Neya [2003] and Fumiko Orikasa [2009], and in English by Colleen Clinkenbeard [Funimation Dub] and Muriel Hofmann [Animax Dub]) is a major character in the Fullmetal Alchemist series.

She is Roy Mustang’s closest confidant and personal bodyguard, as well as the military’s best sharpshooter specialist, in addition to her rank as Lieutenant. She also has a pet dog named Black Hayate that she acquired after he was brought in by Fuery, being the only one suitable in the crew for taking care of him.

Riza has long, golden hair, usually worn up in the back with a flat brown clip, and her eyes are a deep chocolatey brown. She also wears silver stud earrings. The main outfit we see her in is a rank-specific Amestrian military uniform, all in that shade of medium blue, with silver detailing everywhere. She also wears black, shin-high boots, and is generally seen carrying some sort of firearm (she has a few, up to you which one would work best for your cosplay purposes, please keep in mind that cons generally have peace-bonding restrictions on prop guns!).

Homura Akemi from Puella Magi Madoka Magica

Homura (voiced in Japanese by Chiwa Saito and in English by Cristina Valenzuela) is one of the major main characters in the anime/manga series Puella Magi Madoka Magica.

She is a very diversely written character, treading a fine line between being the protagonist and technically being the villain, due to the constant wearing down on her mental state from every new time iteration she goes through to keep Madoka safe. For this one, I’ve chosen to do her main magical girl outfit.

Homura has very long black hair, that she wears a dark headband on, and greyish purple eyes. Her magical girl outfit consists of a white, grey, and black top with a purple ribbon on the neck, a grey and white skirt, and black tights with purple diamonds down the sides, which lead into a sort of high-heel end (I included some flats if you want it to blend in better with the tights, but high heels of choice are also an option). She also carries her reality warping shield while in combat.

Reimi Sugimoto

Reimi Sugimoto is a character in Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure. She appears in the fourth part, Diamond is Unbreakable. She roams the hidden streets of Moiroh as a friendly ghost, seeking help to bring her killer, Yoshikage Kira, to justice. She later meets Rohan Kishibe and Koichi Hirose, who vow to catch Kira. Reimi recognizes Rohan, for she saved him from Kira when he was a baby. Although trapped in the alleyways, Reimi is a friendly, playful girl. You can usually find Reimi accompanied by her dog, Arnold, who was also Kira’s victim.

Olivier Mira Armstrong from Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood

Olivier (voiced in Japanese by Yōko Sōmi and in English by Stephanie Young) is an important character in the later half of the Fullmetal Alchemist series, only seen in the manga and Brotherhood.

Like her younger brother Alex, she is part of the army that the majority of the rest of the cast report under, and is a high ranking Major General, stationed at Fort Briggs of Amestris. While known for her steady and unrelenting leadership, leading to her having the nickname of ‘Ice Queen’, she also cares very deeply for her subordinates, giving them unexpectedly leeway while still maintaining a front of control.

Olivier has the same light golden hair as the rest of her family, worn long and down over one eye, with her other visible one a very pretty blue. Her lips are also very full and glossy. The uniform she wears is a slightly different version to the regular Amestris army one that we see, as she’s stationed in a much colder place. The base uniform is still the same, in those specific shade of blues and silvers, but she wears a thick black coat with a white fur trim over top, with white gloves, and shin-high black boots. Her weapon of choice is a sword that she keeps on her person.

She has horns, fangs, pointed ears, and a spade-shaped tail, but she can conceal them at will behind her human form.
