Misaki Ayuzawa is the first female president at a school that recently transitioned from an all boys school to a co-ed one. As you can imagine, that isn't the most fun of jobs especially when you're dealing with a majority male population that tries its best to trample you in its testosterone. However, she manages to control them through her Akido techniques and swiftly became known as the Demon President. However, Misaki has a secret. Because of her poor family finances, she works part-time at a maid cafe to help pay the bills. Whilst she has managed to live a double life all this while, it is soon shattered when pretty-boy Takumi Usui walks in on her during a shift. Instead of revealing her secret, he decides to blackmail her so he can get closer to her. The two are similar in the sense that Kyouko and Misaki are both strong female leads that take control most of the time but tend to have vulnerable sides. They also tend to get into random hijinks with a particular guy because they can't stand him at all. And finally, they're both dense blockheads who can't sense when the love of their life is standing right beside them.

If you ask anyone in their school, Ryuuji Takasu is a delinquent that goes around intimidating people with his scary face and Taiga Aisaka is the cute mascot of the school. However, in contrast to their looks, Ryuuji is a gentle soul he spends much of his time helping around his house and taking care of his single mother when she's overworked while Taiga is a fiesty hot-head who goes around attacking people with a wooden katana. They soon discover that the other has a crush on their respective best friends, and form a pact to help the other capture their crushes. Nothing can go wrong, right? While thematically Toradora! and Skip Beat aren't the most similar, they are a very similar type of romance anime that rarely exists nowadays. They both deliver a close to realistic approximation of what romance in real life is actually like, and most of the time you can actually see that the characters really would react that way in a certain scenario. There and ups and downs and all arounds, but they'll eventually find a way.

Shinichi Chiaki is one of the most talented young musicians to ever grace the soil of Japan. He is a first class musician that pushes himself daily to the ever lofty goal of perfection. His dream is to one day play on the stages of Europe and showcase his talent to the world. Unfortunately, he is deathly afraid to fly on planes, so he is stuck in Japan. Megumi Noda is directionless piano student that fails in all aspect of managing herself. She doesn't really know what she wants to do most of the time and ends up playing the theme song for a children's show. When the two first meet, he gets annoyed with her. But when he hears her play, he becomes enraptured by her music. This does not change the fact that Chiaki doesn't want her as his neighbour, nor does he want her to be in love with him! The chemistry between Megumi and Shinichi are extremely similar to that of Kyouko and Ren. Megumi and Kyouko are ditzy, directionless air-heads that seem to move in seemingly random patterns. Ren and Shinichi are cool and skillful players of their art who have the greatest misfortune of being saddled with their respective girls. But what better to melt an icy heart?

Ever watched the movie "The Ring"? Remember that creepy central character that crawled out of the well and scared the pants of anyone who watched it at the time? Unfortunately for Kuronuma Sawako, all of her classmates remember. Though she tries her best to be a kind and sweet girl, she is often mistaken to be a serial killer because of her resemblance to the girl from "The Ring", leading her to be called Sadako by her classmates. However, Sawako doesn't want to give up. She tries her best to make friends and comes across Kazehaya Shouta the most popular guy in class who is well known to be extremely friendly and charming. When he starts responding to her advances, she figures that maybe she actually has a chance at friendship, and maybe something more. If you enjoyed the Shoujo-ness of Skip Beat and want more of that particular feeling, this is the anime for you. There aren't an abundance of similar elements, just the cut and dry ones like being a romance and having a likable guy plus girl to form a relationship. But the romance in both animes are realistic enough and they are both very Shoujo in their execution that you just can't miss this if you liked Skip Beat.

Hikari Hanazono and Kei Takishima met at the age of 6 when their pro-wrestling fathers introduced them to each other. With the assumption that she was the best around, she challenged Kei to a match and was trounced soundly by him. Ever since that point, she has been unable to defeat him in anything, from grades to the most innocuous of things like pole vaulting or fishing. In order to get more opportunities to defeat him, she has joined the same elite school that he did. The school, Hakusenkan, takes its students' rankings very seriously, and rewards the top few students with the distinction of Special A. This grants them privileges and luxuries that other students don't have, provided they can maintain their grades. Kei holds the first place and Hikari keeps trying to beat him from her second place. She'll keep trying, constantly unaware of his feelings for her. If you liked the boyish, dense and blockheaded character of Kyouko you'll definitely love Hikari because she's quite similar in that regard. She does everything in her power to excel and finally defeat him but she's completely oblivious of his feelings for her, just like Kyouko doesn't realise Ren loves her. Ren and Kei will do their best to take care of their girls, but it isn't really an easy task…

Princess Yona lives your typical princess life; she is enthroned in a palace of decadence and lives a life of luxury that normal people like us could possibly never experience within our entire lifetime. However, that all comes crashing down when her cousin Su-Won betrays her family by plunging a blade into the chest of the King. Yona is soon forced to flee the castle with her childhood friend Son Hak into the outskirts of their land Kouka, but is soon shocked to discover that her country isn't the idyllic land she thought it to be. Kouka seems to be wrought with poverty and and corruption, painting a sordid picture that she almost refuses to acknowledge. With naught but her childhood friend at her side, she must try her best to restore her country, or die trying. While it seems that the two anime couldn't be further apart, they are actually quite similar. Yona and Kyouko both start out with a love interest whom they deeply cherish that betrays them in one of the worst possible fashion. They are then forced to develop from the annoying twits that they were into fully mature women. At some point, they also meet another love interest that they initially dislike, but come to like over the course of the show. So with that said, just watch it.

This is the final evolution of Magnemite.Yes, that curiously looking metallic sphere with magnets as hands. Three of them form Magnezone, linked with a powerful magnetic force. Magnezone has a good level of attack and defense, besides being damaged only by three other Pokemon types. Yet, another evolution would be desirable, right? What makes this evolution so great? In this case, you have to be on a specific place. You can choose either Mt. Coronet, Chargestone Cave, Kalos Route 13, or New Mauville to level your Magnetone up. The you will get Magnezone, a nice ovni-like Pokemon with magnets as hands and with a boost on attack and defense.

Swinub is a lovely looking Pokemon based on a baby wild boar. It is so hairy and fluffy because he needs protection from the cold! Of course that being a baby, his abilities are rather low, being hit points, attack and speed the only ones that stand out. But well, he is also damaged by eleven Pokemon types, so… how can we make it evolve? Well, once Swinub reaches level 33 and becomes Piloswine, we have to train it and teach him new tricks. If it learns Ancient power and levels up, it will evolve into Mamoswine. To be honest, only its attack and defense will be very high, but hey! At least we have a furry and poison-resistant Pokemon.

Here we have another Pokemon from the second Generation. Its first form is the absolutely cute baby Happiny, who resembles a pink egg with a high ponytail that is taking care of a white egg. Let’s remember that these eggs are nutritious ^^ Then we have to make sure Happiny levels up while holding an Oval stone during day time to have the next evolution (Chansey). So, what do we have to do in order to make Chansey become Blissey? Well, it has to have high friendship, which is a measure of how happy is a Pokemon with its trainer. Yes, Chansey is so generous and social that its strength is friendship. Once it becomes Blissey, it has the maximum hit points ability and a decent special defense. Blissey truly is a nourishing Pokemon with an interesting evolution!

We have to admit that Slowpoke is not the most popular Pokemon out there. Just by looking at it, we can tell that it is rather lazy. Slowpoke is damaged or weak against two thirds of Pokemon types and only its hit points level is kinda decent. So, this Pokemon needs at least one redeeming quality. Why evolve Slowpoke into Slowbro if you can get a more interesting Pokemon instead? Just trade him while holding a King’s rock and you will get the regal Slowking. He is a Slowpoke who stands straight on two legs and uses a conch as crown. Plus, he does good avances on his abilities (except speed, of course).

Abra is a bipedal yellow Pokemon with psychic abilities. It has a good special attack and decent speed, but Abra can receive damage from 13 Pokemon types. Maybe it is better if it evolves, right? Abra can evolve into Kadabra when it reaches level 16, but it can still evolve one more time. The detail here is that, if you want your Kadabra to become Alakazam, you have to trade him. Yet, it is worth the nuisances, as his special defense gets better and his overall power naturally increases. Taking into account that this Pokemon is weak physically but mentally strong, making it evolve will help its chances to win in battle. Now he will have two spoons at hand, which as you may know, increase its psychic abilities.

We have beautiful Pokemon inspired by fish-like Goldeen and Finneon. On the other hand, we also have Magikarp and Feebas. Just look at the latest, it is comical with its wide open eyes, dark circles and sad mouth. The biggest problem is not his appearance, it is his lack of relevant abilities beyond speed. So, how does this sad Pokemon fish evolve? With the power of Beauty! You will have to feed Feebas with Pokeblocks or Poffins made with dry flavored berries. From Generation V onwards, you can also get Feebas’ evolution when traded holding a Prism Scale. The beautiful Milotic you will get comes with a great increase on its abilities, particularly on hit points, special attack and special defense.

Apparently, the second generation gave us a bunch of interest Pokemon evolutions. Mantyke is a lovely looking manta ray, blue colored with big shiny black eyes. It has a good special defense, but well, being Pokemon experts, we can’t avoid trying to make it evolve. The bad news is that we need another Pokemon for that. Enter Remoraid, a fish like Pokemon with apparently no strong points or abilities. But although it remains as a separate Pokemon, when Mantyke levels up, the Mantyke becomes Mantine. Now we have a better special attack, defense and speed. And we can also go surfing with our brand new giant manta ray :p

Nincada is a bug Pokemon inspired by the Japanese cicadas. At first sight, you might be tempted to believe the poor creature was ran over by the rush hour traffic, as it looks like it is covered in bandages. Nincada’s defense is the only decent leveled ability it possesses, but let’s not judge this Pokemon so fast. If you happen to have an empty slot in your party and an extra Pokeball, you can make Nincada evolve at level 20. Cicadas leave behind an entire shell with their old form when they mature, so Nincada becomes Ninjask and Shedinja, who is Nincada’s shell. You get two Pokemons! And both are more powerful than Nincada. Ninjask is better in Speed and attack, while Shedinja has a good attack only. Well, it looks like you can not get everything in life, but we can’t deny this is an interesting Poke evolution based on a real insect.

Now that we are discussing multiple Pokemon we can get from Evolutions, it is time to mention Tyrogue. This is a fighting baby Pokemon who can be trained in diverse ways. As a baby, Tyrogue really has low stats, starting with 35 in everything. Yes, everything, and it can be damaged by 12 Pokemon types. In short, depending on how well Tyrogue is doing on its stats, he can evolve into three different Pokemon. You can get Hitmonlee if Tyrogue’s attack is higher than its defense. You can get Hitmonchan if your Pokemon’s defense is higher than its attack. Or (and this is tricky) you can get Hitmontop if both stats are the same. In all cases, its abilities will increase considerably. You only have to think of which Pokemon you would like to have and train your Tyrogue accordingly.

We have finally reached the king of evolutions! Who would say that this cutie could be so multifaceted? Its abilities are nothing special as an Eevee, being between 45 and 65 in all the stats. But the great variety of Pokemon he can evolve into is worthwhile. Why not have several Eevees and level them up in different ways?: You can get Vaporeon with a Water stone. Eevee evolves into Jolteon with a Thunder stone. You can get a Flareon with a Fire stone. You simply can get high in friendship by day to get an Espeon, or you can get high at night for an Umbreon (in friendship guys, in friendship). You can get close to a Moss Rock and level up your Eevee there to get a Leafeon. Or get close to an Ice rock for a Glaceon. Or the most cheesy way of evolving ever! Level up while doing a Fairy type move and two affection hearts to get a Sylveon!

The story follows a young and shy schoolgirl who has this fascination with cellphones. She continues to dream about owning the ideal phone that suits her own tastes. One day that dream somehow turned into a strange reality as the very same phone she imagined in her mind started to ring, and someone picks up. Kimi ni Shika Kikoenai was initially a light novel which was then adapted into a manga of the same name, and comes with two short stories instead of three. Two young girls have gone through a lot during their high school years, and now through their pains they somehow have the ability to connect to one another telepathically through the phones in their minds. As they continue to discover more about each other, they realize that neither live in the same time and space which gets even more deeper as you read through. The second story in the manga looks at a young boy who is able to absorb the wounds of other people and take on their pains. To have a better connection to these stories, we recommend not only grabbing the manga, but be sure to pick up the original light novel.

Nura appears to be just a normal kid from everyone’s perspective, but in fact he’s descended from Nurarihyon, the grand master of the spirit world. All he truly wants to do is live his life like any other normal young teen, but anytime his friends find themselves in trouble his spirit energy erupts, and he transforms into a godlike yokai that closely resembles Nurarihyon to stop evil. Nura aims to save the world from all of the evil that’s about to create chaos, and so he vows to create a legion called the Night Parade of a Hundred Demons to ensure that no one else goes through anymore suffering. Nura performs acts of chivalry and a gallant effort when it comes to battling these evil yokai, because he knows just how important his life and friends mean to him. He’ll sacrifice everything so that everyone can live the life that he had always dreamed of, and that was to just live a normal human life. This story shares a little resemblance to Ushio to Tora in a way, so if you enjoyed that story then you’ll most certainly love this one.

The kingdom was overtaken by an evil and mysterious group of mercenaries who wanted to control and corrupt the town, and so they blackmailed seven of the kingdom’s most powerful knights and left them imprisoned. Fortunately Meliodas knew something was up and made it his mission to release all the other six knights from their imprisonment, and put a stop to the dark powers that are terrorizing the community. Along with his pal Hawk and his beautiful girl princess Elizabeth, they all band together to ensure that the kingdom is restored, and peace returns to the hearts of the people. This story is hyped up in so many ways because from the moment you’re greeted by all of the seven knights, you know you’re in for a treat. The first season of the series ended with an explosive battle which restored peace into the kingdom, but there are still unknown threats that are still hungry to destroy not only Meliodas and his comrades, but to reclaim the throne as their own and wreak havoc once again. There’s so much action and great dialogue that occurs all throughout the manga, that you’re always glued to what’s happening and never want to miss a beat. With so many characters to choose from, there’s a favorite for everyone, so if you love an action packed thrill ride with crazy supernatural powers, this is the one for you.

Kimihiro can see spirits but he simply cannot stand being around them, as they only seem more as a nuisance to him than anything. Fortunately after being chased by a pack of wild yokai down the street, he manages to stumble across a small eerie shop that is run by a young witch named Yuuko. He admits that he cannot take the stress any longer and requests that she get rid of the annoying yokai. Yuuko accepts his request but under a contract, Kimihiro must now work for her and assist in taking care of her own errands in this comedy driven, yokai adventure. After accepting the offer, Kimihiro is then thrown into a crazy universe far from his own, populated with the very same creatures he desperately wanted to avoid. Yuuko always shows strong concern for Kimihiro on his endeavors, and so she usually summons her Kudakitsune or Doumeki to make sure he’s safe at all times. The yokai are constantly reckless and will do whatever it takes to get under Kimihiro’s skin, so Doumeki ensures to fend them off in very comedic ways. This yokai adventure is full of laughs as we see a young boy trying to overcome the nightmares of yokai ruining his life, while at the same time gaining new friends and learning to cope with his own insecurities along the way.

Chise has had a rough upbringing as her mother passed away, and her father disappearing from her life altogether. She had spent most of her childhood relocating around with relatives, until one day she finds herself on an auction block. Seeing that her family no longer cared for her, Chise is picked up by Elias Ainsworth, a boneheaded being who promises to teach her about magic and mage abilities. What strikes Chise however is not in being his apprentice, but that Elias vows to make her his bride. This romantic slice of life adventure looks at Chise, as her life had started off on a rough road but eventually turns around for the better once Elias is introduced. Elias becomes like an inspiration to her on their travels, teaching her the importance of magic, protection, and building maturity over time. Due to her lack of parenting, much of this was new to her but overtime his ability to woo her over with intellect started to grow on her. Her dark past began to slowly wane as she grew to enjoy his teachings, and realized that despite his demonic appearance Elias came into her life to shed light on the areas which had cursed her for years.

There’s something much deadlier that’s plaguing England and threatening the Queen, and Ciel just might have the solution. After a tragic end that left both the Earl and his wife dead, Ciel is now left with the responsibility of being the next Earl with his butler Sebastian to assist him at his request. Many people are shocked by the decision as they assumed that Ciel was nothing more than a young boy with no purpose, but they eventually come to see the truth that lies behind the youthful exterior as he shows them that he’s no pushover. The story of Kuroshitsuji looks at the life of Ciel and his demon butler Sebastian, as the two must work together to uncover the mysteries behind his parents untimely deaths, but to also understand just what’s transpiring in the underground cities of London. The story feels sort of like a young version of Sherlock Holmes, with Ciel using his clever ways to unravel the clues behind what’s happening, and Sebastian there to use his demonic powers to ensure Ciel doesn’t get caught in the crossfire. Ciel is no slouch either as he has powers of his own and vows to find out everything down to the last drop, to ensure the Queen is safe and bring justice to those who killed his parents.

Light is hungry for justice and will do just about anything to see the corrupt world he lives in have some balance. He wishes that someday he could become a god and rid his world of all the criminals who bring suffering to the lives of others. Ryuk the shinigami accidentally drops his death note in the real world, and by fate Light discovers the book. Once Light learns of the powers this book holds, his psychotic and manipulative dreams of bringing justice to the world have now come into fruition. Death Note has won many awards and many live dramas have been created, simply due to its extreme popularity. Light’s world changes dramatically as his once boring life as a university student turns into a crazy and deadly game of cat and mouse, as police try to track down who’s behind all of the mysterious murders that are happening. All Light desired was that these criminals be punished for their ways, but now he himself has transformed into a lunatic, filled with this insatiable lust to kill just about anyone who defies him, using his intellect to maneuver out of sticky situations and walk away clean as the true god of justice.

Ginko is a lone wolf and isn’t much of a talker when it comes to meeting new people. However, he has this strange fascination with mushi, who are creatures that exist pretty much everywhere, and are beings that transcend the concept of life and death. The mushi are neither seen as good or bad, only here to serve their own purpose as any other being. The story follows Ginko as he grows to learn more about the mushi species and just what their mysterious roles are in this vast world. Ginko as we come to learn in the manga is a Mushishi, which is an individual who studies the life of mushi, and uncovers information as to why they exist. We follow Ginko as he tries to detail what he can about the various mushi he encounters in the real world, but due to scarce resources pertaining to their origin he finds himself chasing after rumors more than facts. It’s a philosophical adventure as the manga questions the reader’s mind as well, penetrating your deepest thoughts to see if you can wrap your head around why mushi actually exist.

The Jojo series has gone on to sell millions of volumes, with so many new chapters coming out constantly. Since there are so many parts that bring Jojo together, we thought it would be best to focus on one of the better arcs of the series. Steel Ball Run takes place in the 18th century Wild West era, which is around the same period as the first arc. Gyro and Johnny have their eyes set on the fifty million dollar race which is a race that spans across most of America. Their race track becomes a no holds barred land, as racers from across the nation aim to accomplish their dreams, but soon realize there’s more in store for them in the end. Each chapter in this arc is so full of history, action, and over the top excitement, as you get to learn more about America’s past but also develop a strong bond with the characters. You’re always introduced to something freakish and outlandish which keeps you coming back to see what happens next, and the story really draws you in as you’re clamoring for more each time something extreme goes down. If you enjoy the Jojo series and are hungry to know more, then be sure to catch up to this arc as it will definitely entice you.

There’s a reason why Guts and his band of allies have made it this far over the span of 30 years. This manga has sold millions of copies and has become an iconic franchise all across the globe. The story focuses on Guts and his lust for revenge as he’s betrayed by Griffith, and his beloved Casca has been taken captive by him. Now Guts travels all over the vast and demon filled lands in search for Casca, with his curse constantly haunting him at every direction he turns. While we’d love to go into detail about the story in the summary, it would most likely spoil a heavy chunk of the story so we recommend watching the movies, as well as the latest anime to get a feel for everything that’s happening. The manga of course is the best place to get all of the nitty gritty, as Guts is hungry to kill just about anyone in his path to make sure Casca stays alive, and Griffith’s head finds its way on a spike sometime soon. With the tremendous help coming from a variety of characters such as the Skull Knight, there’s always action and blood spillage everywhere in this incredible story driven series. While the manga is on hiatus we insist that you catch up while you can before things start to erupt again.

The release of Pokémon Go has been one of the highlighting events to shake this year. As it is one of the most downloaded and profitable apps to date, it is fitting that we include one of the original characters on this list to cosplay. Pokémon, at its infancy in 1997, includes Misty, a sassy gal, determined to be the best water-type Pokémon trainer. Misty throughout the series, with Ash and Brock as her companions, acquires more knowledge of Pokémon and progressively develops as well. We believe that her outfit reflects her intrepid and cheeky spirit. Misty’s trademark outfit includes a yellow crop top tank, red suspenders, jean shorts, red sneakers, and an orange pack. As she is continually active with capturing Pokémon, battling various trainers, and traveling with Ash and Brock, what she wears encompasses ease and is acceptable for her active life. Misty is a great choice to cosplay because of her namesake in a highly classic and acclaimed series in the world of anime!

Hell Girl, for the most part, surrounds the concept of revenge, watching people reap what they sow and essentially getting their “just deserts.” Imagine if inflicting this punishment was possible by simply accessing a website to send your intended victim straight to hell. The concept in and of itself is extremely scary. This “Hell Correspondence” will call up Enma Ai, whose sole task is to ferry the chosen target to hell. As this is only the half of it, the remainder of this contract must be completed when the requesting person submits payment of himself or herself into hell as well. Yikes! Enma is a great choice to cosplay for this Halloween because of the swift and unforgiving nature of her job. The fear of death and damnation is something one does not look forward to when their time is up. This circumstance is heightened when someone as sinister and creepy looking as Enma is the one to bring you to your doom. Often seen with a floral kimono and piercing red eyes, she may appear harmless, but don’t be fooled, she is far from friendly.

Tomoki Sakurai’s peaceful life is forever changed when a strange, bright, white, meteorite-like object falls from the sky. As this entity lands on the surface, its appearance is angelic and adorable. The purpose and function of Ikaros, as she is called, is to find a being to call her master. As she gazes upon Tomoki, from that moment forth, servant and master experience a ton of craziness and shenanigans. As Heaven’s Lost Property is recognized for providing a great deal of fan service, Ikaros for cosplay, Halloween 2016, is no doubt an eye-catching and sexy choice. Her ensemble includes a white revealing bustier dress, thigh high socks, knee high boots and a set of angel wings. In combination with a look of innocence, Ikaros redefines the description of what a virtuous angel should look and act like.

Can you keep a secret? Misaki Ayuzawa’s part-time job as a café maid may seem embarrassing to her, but place the utmost confidence in Honey’s, as we are certain that this outfit is the one to choose for cosplay. As Misaki’s character in Kaichou wa Maid-sama! reflects her strong and stern demeanor, her maid attire contrasts this completely. The concept of maid cafés allows for patrons to be serviced at their whims and desires by loveable and charming maids, willing to please their “masters of the moment”. Maid cosplay is a common and timeless choice and we can think of no other maid to choose from than our favorite, Misaki! As maids have a reputation for alluring, with a short black dress, white apron, white headband and a “can-do attitude”, this maid ensemble is perfect because it is an enticing idea to have someone do whatever you want, so you can kick up your feet and relax. Ahh, this is the life!

Attack on Titan focuses on humanity’s struggle as they face these monstrous beings called titans, destroying and devouring the human race without reason. In an attempt to blockade the titans, mankind has built three enormous walls, where for a century, people have been able to live without trouble. One day, the peace is disturbed and the outer wall is breached. The people living within these walls are scared, as everyone scrambles to safety towards the center. However, there are those that believe their existence is worth fighting for and train to face the threat on humanity. As one of the three main soldiers in this anime, Misaka Ackerman is a very quiet and stoic individual. She has a very close bond with Eren because as children, he saved her life. As she is loyal to him, Mikasa joined the ranks to fight alongside him. She is extremely skillful, graduating at the top of her class and essentially is a paragon. Dressed in her combatant uniform, which includes a khaki jacket, white cargo pants, white button-up top, combat boots and her equipment, she sets herself apart from the others with a lovely feminine red scarf. Misaka is a great character to cosplay because of how awesome and ass kicking she is.

Tokyo Ghoul takes place in a time where humans and human-like beings called ghouls coexist. These ghouls possess superhuman abilities. As they can only eat human flesh, the ghouls are mercilessly hunted down by a government agency called CCG. Consequently, humans constantly fear becoming prey to these ghouls. In contrast, the ghouls face the challenge of living among humans, attempting to blend in. Engaging in the internal fight against instinct and external issues of avoiding capture by the CCG, Ken Kaneki, being from both worlds, demonstrates the difficulties and ease of each species. Touka Kirishima is a ghoul in the series, who can successfully balance living as herself among people. She is a significant character because of her accessibility to the ghoul community; as an informant and food supplier. Touka works hard at protecting her kind as well as establishing harmony with humans. However, don’t let her appearance fool you! She possesses superhuman abilities, in addition to her smart and perceptive attitude. Dressed in a school uniform, with her dark black eyes and piercing red pupils, her ominous look is fitting for Halloween. Touka’s sinister looks will definitely scare you off, as she is someone you would not want to run into in a dark, cold alley!

Cyan Hijirikawa from Show By Rock!! has a tremendous passion for music. Cyan is incredibly shy, but wants to join her school’s music club because of her love for music. In one attempt to sign up for the music club, she backs out, hanging her head low and burying herself in her phone app, Strawberry Heart. Harboring such musical talent, all of a sudden, Cyan is sucked into an alternate world called Midi City. Through her phone, Midi City is where music is profoundly critical to one’s life. Tragically, Midi City is faced with the problem of shadow monsters taking over musicians and music, where eventually they will become monsters as well. Cyan was intentionally sent to help destroy the shadow monsters for good. With the help of her Plasmagica bandmates, they set out to complete this mission, restoring musical bliss to Midi City. Cyan’s outfit is absolutely adorable! Cyan is a great choice to cosplay because her whole look is super cute. She wears cute cat accessories, a long sleeved navy dress, striped thigh high socks, and black mary janes. Additionally, she has her guitar/weapon, Strawberry Heart. Moreover, who wouldn’t want to be a rockstar and a hero in one?!

Overlord follows Momonga, a powerful wizard who is a part of a guild called Ainz Ooal Gown. As Momonga’s coveted virtual reality game comes to a close, due to it being shut down, he spends his final moments remaining in the server. As he observes the final countdown, something unexpected happens. Although the time is up, Momonga still remains in the game. However, the setting has vastly changed and the NPCs are fully involved with him, with developed consciousness as well. Eager to figure out this new development, Momonga tackles on this new adventure! In Overlord, Albedo is the highest-ranking NPC in the game and Overseer of the Floor Guardians of the Great Tomb of Nazarick. Albedo was not always as she was programed to be. As they were transported into the new world, Momonga made some administrative changes to her character, so that Albedo is now unconditionally in love and devoted to him. In appearance, Albedo wears a strapless, cold shoulder, cut-out dress, has black angel wings, and horns that kind of resemble a crown. Albedo is another fantastic choice for cosplay because of her otherworldly look paired with a touch of feminine elegance.

Dimension W is an exciting sci-fi, futuristic, action anime. Dimension W is a newly discovered fourth dimension. With a newfound technology called coils, humanity can now use an inexhaustible source of energy to power up robots that closely resemble people. However, our lead character, Kyouma Mabuchi, is skeptical of the usage of coils because of his affinity for classic and old school technology. As he is an independent contractor, his job entails retrieving these coils. Upon one of his missions, we run into Mira Yurizaki, an android. Mira is an interesting character that has been sheltered for more of her existence and must cope with learning how to interact with humans. Mira insists that she is human, despite having robotic mechanisms and equipment attached to her body. After a tragedy occurred in Mira’s life, she decides to join Kyouma and help him retrieve coils. As such, Mira’s look includes an interesting looking headpiece, yellow frill tank, pink biker shorts, and thigh high white boots. She also has a tail and technological markers all over her body. Mira would be an attractive pick for cosplay, adding a twist to the robot getup.

Bananya is a cute and carefree, optimistic, kitty in a banana. Bananya wants to become a chocolate covered banana and is obsessed with this idea. As many of us are guilty of watching kitty videos on YouTube, watching cats doing absolutely nothing but groom and play with random things, we can observe Bananya doing just as much; doing cute kitty things, all the while being in a banana peel. We feel that Bananya for cosplay for this Halloween is a simple and cute look to create. As there are various colors and characters of cats to choose from in Bananya, all that needs to be done is to choose your breed and pair this with a long yellow skirt or pants with some fabric that folds over! Silly and adorable, Bananya is so cute we at Honey’s “CAN’T EVEN!!!” Furthermore, Bananya is a choice that will definitely stick out!
