Himeno is a character in the best-selling manga, Chainsaw Man. Illustrated by Tatsuki Fujimoto, the series was serialized in the weekly Shonen Jump magazine for two years until December 2020. It was adapted into an anime series in 2022 which now premieres weekly episodes on Crunchyroll and Hulu. Chainsaw Man takes place in a world where devils are born from fears. Himeno is a Public Safety Devil Hunter who works for Makima. She is partnered with Aki, and they both take hunting devils very seriously. She has a contract with the Ghost Devil. In exchange for her right eye, Himeno can summon and control the invisible arm of the Ghost Devil.

Bella Hartley is one of the three main characters in Nickelodeon’s H2O: Just Add Water. She appears in the third season following Emma’s departure. She is new on the Gold Coast. As a child, she stumbled upon a moonpool in Ireland, where she became a mermaid. She befriends Cleo and Rikki, and together, the girls must navigate life as a human on land and mermaid in the water. While rather shy, Bella has an amazing voice, so she sings for the band at Rikki’s cafe. Her mermaid power is gel manipulation, where she can turn liquids into a jelly-like substance. Indiana Evans portrayed this character.

Mikaela Hyakuya (voiced in Japanese by Kenshō Ono and in English by Justin Briner) is half of the main character set in the anime/manga Owari no Seraph/Seraph of the End.

While originally starting off the series as a human, Mika has gone through several form changes. Where we see him currently in the manga, he is a vampire, though he prefers not to drink from humans if he can help it. This mainly leads to him feeding off of Yu, his best friend and most important person since childhood.

He has very fluffy blonde hair with a white sheen over top, and his eyes are blue or red, both slitted, depending on the scene. The outfit he wears is the typical vampire uniform, a creamish-white jacket over a black button up shirt, white pants, lots of gold detailing everywhere, and thigh-high black boots.

Oz Vessalius (voiced by Junko Minagawa) is the main character of the anime/manga Pandora Hearts.

He is the oldest of the Vessalius children, and after making a contract with Alice, he has the ability to use the chain of the B-Rabbit (though if you’re caught up with the manga, this is all very changed). Gil, his childhood best friend, is the one person that helps him contain the B-Rabbit powers so that it doesn’t drain him.

Oz has short, fluffy blonde hair, and green eyes. The main outfit we see him wearing throughout the series is a white button up shirt, a red necktie over top, a black layered vest with gold detailing, green plaid shorts, black socks, and brown boots with detail pieces. He also carries around the gold pocketwatch that plays ‘Lacie’.

Enid Sinclair (Emma Myers) is a character in Netflix’s Wednesday. She is a werewolf student who attends Nevermore Academy. She is also roommates with Wednesday Addams. Born in California, Enid is bright, sunny, and cheerful — the exact opposite of the titular character. Although she is unafraid to stand up for those she cares about. Throughout the series, she befriends and supports Wednesday, helping her investigate the murders. For her casual clothes, she mostly wears pastels and pinks.

Everyone is watching Netflix’s Wednesday, a supernatural coming-of-age comedy featuring the iconic daughter of the Addams family. Portrayed by Jenna Ortega, Wednesday is sixteen with a sharp mind and sarcastic remarks. When she gets expelled from school, Gomez and Morticia send her to Nevermore Academy, where they met and fell in love. Wednesday finds herself investigating a murder spree alongside new friends — and foes. Whether you cosplay her collared dress or school uniform, black is a must. And don’t smile, unless Uncle Fester decides to surprise you with a visit.

Carmelita Spats (played by Kitana Turnbull) is a spoiled bully at the Austere Academy in Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events.  Carmelita bullies the Baudelaires, including Klaus, for being orphans.  Carmelita has red hair worn in ringlets with pink bows.  Her wardrobe tends toward pink dresses with white tights and short heels.  To recreate her look, you’ll want to find a pink dress to build your costume around.  Any pink dress can work, though something that is frilly and high-collared will be best, since it will also give you a place to wear her signature brooch, which she eventually gives to Count Olaf.

In season 2 of The White Lotus, Portia is socialite Tanya’s personal assistant, accompanying her on a ritzy vacation to Sicily. This Gen Z’s fashion, or lack thereof, has gotten plenty of notice, with actor Haley Lu Richardson explaining it reflects the character’s own lack of identity. Her colorful outfits feature plenty of knitwear, which makes sense since Haley crochets goods available on her Etsy store, HookedByHaleyLu, on the side.
