Carbon Costume

Weiss (voiced in English by Kara Eberle and in Japanese by  Yōko Hikasa) is one of the main title characters of the animated series RWBY.

This is the formal dress outfit that she wears in the episode ‘Dance Dance Infiltration’ in Volume 2.

Weiss has long white hair, worn up in a side ponytail and topped with a spiked hair piece. She has blue eyes, one with a light scar across it, and she’s wearing long thin bar earrings. For her formal outfit, she has a white dress with side cutouts and a mesh strap top, and she wears white pumps to finish off the look.

Reim (voiced by Junichi Suwabe) is one of the secondary main characters in the anime/manga series Pandora Hearts.

He serves under the family of Rufus Barma, while working with the Pandora organization, is good friends with both Sharon and Break, and helps the main trio throughout the story. His contracted chain is the March Hare, tying in with Break’s being the Mad Hatter.

Reim has very short light brown hair, with eyes in a similar shade, worn over by gold oval glasses and accessorized by black and gold dangle earrings. He wears the standard black and white robed Pandora uniform, with white gloves, and black boots tipped with metal.

Hawks (voiced in Japanese by Yuichi Nakamura and in English by Zeno Robinson) is one of the main pro heroes in the anime/manga My Hero Academia.

He is currently the No.2 Pro Hero, and has a variety of ties to different groups, both current and former. His Quirk incorporates his wings, allowing him to fly and control individual feathers for attacks.

Hawks has golden messily spiked hair, and golden-brown eyes that he wears yellow goggles over, in tandem with ear protectors. His outfit is built for flight, streamlined for the black and gold underlayer, with bulky and warm tan outer layers. He wears a thick pair of black gloves, black socks, and black boots, and has a large set of red wings coming from his back.

Shino Aburame (voiced by Shinji Kawada and Darek Stephen Prince) is a character from the anime and manga series Naruto.  He is a member of Team 8, under Kurenai Yuhi, alongside Hinata Hyuga and Kiba Inuzuka.  He can control bugs that live inside his body as part of his clan’s special technique.  Members of the Aburame clan are known for wearing dark glasses that obscure their eyes, and Shino is no exception.  In the original series, he also wears brown pants and a grey-green jacket with a high collar that covers his mouth.  When creating your costume, try to find a jacket with a high-stand collar.  In the later episodes of Shippuden, Shino wears a green hooded jacket with a black shirt beneath instead having the collar that covers the lower portion of his face. A cowl neck zip-up can serve this purpose well.  During the Fourth Shinobi War, he also wears a Konoha standard-issue flak vest.  No matter which version you choose, don’t forget your forehead protector, kunai pouch, sandals, and round sunglasses.

Stain (voiced in Japanese by Go Inoue and in English by Robert McCollum) is one of the initial antagonists in the series My Hero Academia/Boku no Hero Academia.

He is a villain known as the Hero Killer, and one of the main antagonists early on in the series, focusing on Iida’s part of the story.

Stain has extremely spiky and messy hair, and tiny red eyes that are framed by a tattered cream mask. He wears a thick red headband, a tattered red scarf, a black and grey tank top/vest combo, black pants, and a large variety of holsters, with spiked boots with knee guards, black bracers, a tan belt with a holster, and cream arm wraps. Also several blades.

Baki Hanma (voiced by Nobunaga Shimazaki and Troy Baker in the 2018 anime) is the protagonist of Baki the Grappler.  Baki trains as a fighter so he can surpass and defeat his father Yuujiro Hanma as vengeance for the death of his mother Emi Akezawa.  Baki has shaggy brown hair and a beauty mark over his lip that resembles Emi’s.  For your costume, you’ll need a pair of red shorts to emulate Baki’s preferred fighting uniform.  While finding an exact match might be difficult, plenty of options exist that are very similar, so choose your favorite.  You’ll also need white hand wraps and athletic tape, and you can use a pair of open-toed grip socks to protect your feet.  Baki is covered in scars from his hard years of training, and you can use scar wax to recreate these.  Depending on how many you decide to wear, you may need extra wax.  Choose a concealer in your skin tone (the one linked comes in many) to conceal the edges.  Finally, use a black eyebrow pencil to add your beauty mark and you’re ready for a fight!

Mr. Compress (voiced in Japanese by Tsuguo Mogami and in English by Kent Williams) is part of the League of Villains in the series My Hero Academia/Boku no Hero Academia.

He is very showy and more of an entertainer oriented criminal, much in the way that Gentle is. His quirk is compressing things into small, tealy-blue marbles.

We haven’t seen his full face in the anime yet, so mild spoiler warning, but he’s got upswept brown hair, and light brown eyes. He has a variety of patterned white masks that he wears over a black ski mask that leads all the way down his collar, a burnt orange button up shirt worn with the collar popped, a green bolo tie, a black vest, black pants, white and black high boots, reddish-orange gloves, and a brown top hat with a red band and a very long white-ish feather sticking out of it.

Garou (voiced by Hikaru Midorikawa and Greg Chun) is a martial arts prodigy who dubs himself the “Hero Hunter” in the manga and anime series One-Punch Man.  Though he spends much of his time as a villain, Bang eventually undertakes his rehabilitation so he can become a hero.  Garou has stark silver hair that he wears styled up into two points.  He wears a tight black long-sleeved shirt, white trousers, and black shoes.  Replaced the sash on a pair of martial arts pants with a yellow one to complete the look.
