Carbon Costume

Jim Morales (voiced by David Gasman) is the physical education instructor at Kadic Academy in the cartoon series Code Lyoko.  Jimbo is boisterous and clumsy, as well as committed to his students’ success and making sure they follow the rules of the Academy.  In seasons 1-3, Jim wore a red and black button down with matching pants, but switched to a more comfortable sweater and tan track pants in season 4.  Whichever version you choose to emulate, make sure to include a whistle or stop watch to truly embody his gym teacher persona, and don’t forget his signature headband and face bandage.

Asta (voiced by Gakuto Kajiwara and Dallas Reid) is one of the main protagonists of the Black Clover anime series.  Asta is an orphan raised by Orsi Orfai alongside his foster brother Yuno.  While Yuno excels in the magic arts, Asta exhibits no talent for magic despite a strong desire to become the Magic Emperor.  To make up for his lack of skill, Asta trains his body relentlessly, resulting in a very muscular physique for his size.  Asta’s costume consists of blue knickers, a white tunic, and a blue cropped jacket, as well as a headband and, later, a matching cloak.

Major Bedhead (Fred Stinson) is a recurring character on The Big Comfy Couch, a Canadian children’s show from the 90s. He is a clown who delivers the mail on his unicycle. He stops by to give Loonette postcards from her Auntie Macassar or Uncle Chester. However, he comes off as quite irresponsible for spending so much time chatting with Loonette and Granny Garbanzo and not delivering packages. Goofy yet clumsy, Major Bedhead possesses many clowning skills such as juggling and pogo sticking. His pet peeves are lying and dishonesty.

Jeremy Belpois (voiced by Sharon Mann) is a main character in the French cartoon Code Lyoko.  A young genius, Jeremy is a student at Kadic Academy and the unofficial founder of the Lyoko Warriors, which also includes Aelita Schaeffer, Odd Della Robbia, William Dunbar, Ulrich Stern, and Yumi Ishiyama.  Jeremy favors turtleneck sweaters and cropped pants, making his costume an easy and comfortable one to recreate.

Lion is a recurring character in the Cartoon Network show, Steven Universe, whom once belonged to Rose Quartz. When Lion died, Rose was able to resurrect him through her healing powers, resulting in his pink fur and magical abilities. Such magical abilities include a pocket dimension, portal creation, and a loud, powerful roar. Eventually Steven finds Lion and befriends him too, making him an ally of the Crystal Gems. Use the pale pink face paint all over your face, and then burgundy face paint to draw the heart shaped nose. While we couldn’t find a pink lion’s mane, it only requires a bit of DIY. For the mane, get some hot glue and adhere the craft fur around the circumference of the cat ear headband. Attach a tuft of that fur to the end of the cat tail and you’re all set!

Phosphophyllite, or Phos for short, is the main protagonist of the anime Land of the Lustrous. She is part of an immortal, humanoid species called the Gems that inhabit the only landmass left in the world. Her sole duty was to make a natural history encyclopedia, but there’s been very little progress. Phos is the youngest Gem, who is clumsy, yet desires to be useful. For instance, she promised to help another Gem named Cinnabar find a suitable job. She wears a standard uniform and can be recognized by her teal green features.

Abby Cadabby is a character on the children’s TV series, Seasame Street. She is a fairy in training who, like all the other characters, lives on Sesame Street. She first appeared in the episode “Abby Cadabby Moves to Sesame Street,” which introduced the show’s 37th season. Her name is a play on the word “Abracadabra” due to her magical abilities. These include teleporting, floating, — and turning things into pumpkins with her wand! Similar to Elmo and Baby Bear, Abby Cadabby is a child who likes to learn the alphabet and how to count. When she learns something new, she exclaims: “That’s so magical!”

Ulrich Stern (voiced in English by Barbara Weber-Scaff) is one of the Lyoko Warriors and a main character in the French cartoon Code Lyoko.  Ulrich is well known to be the best fighter amongst his friends, including Yumi Ishiyama, for whom he has romantic feelings.  His relationship with Yumi sometimes leads him to clash with Willian Dunbar, who also has feelings for her.  Ulrich’s standard clothing includes cargo pants and a t-shirt all in shades of brown and green.  His warrior costume can be recreated by choosing tightly-fitted compression wear in similar colors and pairing them with a pair of katana swords, which are his primary weapons.
