Mirajane Strauss cosplay

In her younger years, Mirajane was known as "The Demon", and before Lisanna's pseudo-death, she used to be a very feared person infamous amongst guilds and criminals alike. She dressed in a punk-Gothic style, and was rather temperamental and bad-mouthed everyone especially Erza, whom she had quite a rivalry with from when they were kids. However, due to a past incident involving the apparent death of her younger sister, Lisanna Mirajane somehow lost much of her Magical ability and her will to fight (both of which have since returned), and her personality changed drastically.




Mirajane is a slim young woman of below average height. She has long, white hair which curls slightly at the ends with two bangs framing her face and reaching down to her chest her hairstyle's most distinctive trait is a short upward ponytail obtained by gathering and tying the hair covering her forehead. Due to her always adopting such fashion, her hair seems to have adapted to it, with the hair on her forehead remaining pointed upwards even when not tied.

Lucy Heartfilia cosplay

Lucy takes exceptional pride in her appearance and is very confident in her sex appeal, often exuding a certain amount of vanity. Despite this superficial attitude she is a clever, kind, and genuinely caring person. Lucy is passionate for literature and is in the process of writing her own novel about her adventures with Fairy Tail.




Lucy has brown eyes and shoulder length blonde hair that is usually tied by ribbons in a variety of colors in a small ponytail to the right side of her head with the rest of the hair loose. However, in the year X791 she appears to keep her hair up more often in pigtails. She has large breasts, and a curvaceous body. Her (presumed) measurements are Bust: 91 cm; Waist: 59 cm; Hip: 88 cm (37in, 23in, 36in}.

Erza Scarlet cosplay

Erza is a very strict person, often criticizing the bad behavior and habits of the other guild members causing most of them to apologize fearing that they might invoke her wrath. She is also very impatient disliking people who don't answer her questions quickly enough. This, coupled with her own tragic childhood caused many of her guild mates to avoid her due to her social awkwardness. However, she has a great sense of justice and pride in being a member of Fairy Tail.




Erza is a young woman who has long, scarlet hair and brown eyes. She also has an artificial right eye made by Porlyusica, which replaced the one she lost as a child. She has a slender figure that Lucy describes as amazing, and like most females in the series, she has large breasts. Her most common attire consists of a custom-made armor by Heart Kreuz smiths, a blue skirt, and black boots. Her Fairy Tail stamp is blue and located on the middle of her left upper arm.

Monet cosplay

Monet appeared to have a very flippant personality, choosing to only inform Caesar about the disaster unfolding on Punk Hazard, after finding out that the intruders were the Straw Hat Pirates. Despite all of the uproar, she maintained the thrilled smile on her face, implying she found it amusing. Monet was also shown examples of being quite diligent, like how she explained to Caesar how the Straw Hat Pirates real strength might be above their current bounties being unsurprised by Luffy breaking through her barrier noting an ordinary pirate could not do so recognizing that she couldn't defeat Luffy in battle knowing how to delay him effectively she also did not believe that she could beat Zoro in a sword fight and instead tried to aim for the weaker targets Nami, Chopper and Robin. Zoro commented on this, stating it was pitiful she attacked people who could not even defend themselves due to their lack of Haki.




As a harpy she had white feathered wings instead of arms that fade to light green at the edges, talons instead of feet and a tail. She had the build of an average human, but her long legs made her somewhat taller than average. She had long, wavy, light green hair and brown eyes. In the anime, her eyes are amber. She was also considered very attractive as several Marines commented on her appearance. She wore a green tank top with "HAPPY" written in dark green on the chest and yellow cut-off pants with orange stripes. She had a Baby Den Den Mushi strapped to her belt.

Baby 5 cosplay

Baby 5 is a member of the Donquixote Pirates, yet she has a grudge against her captain for killing eight of her previous boyfriends. She continuously tries to attack him with fatal blows because of this albeit without success. However, Doflamingo does not consider it a rebellion as he assigned her to go to Punk Hazard with Buffalo to assist Vergo right after she attacked him. When she arrived at Punk Hazard she also wore goggles around her eyes which became partially filled with tears after she began to cry.



Baby 5 is a woman of average size. She wears a skimpy, velvet French maid outfit that reveals much of her legs, with her bra partly visible.

Jewelry Bonney cosplay

Bonney is an extremely gluttonous person with very poor table manners. She will, for instance, demand more food even though she has not finished her current meal. She seems to have a particular love of pizza, even eating a slice during her first appearance in the series. While she may have bad manners, she has some common sense. She knows when to fight and when to prevent trouble, particularly in dangerous territories such as the Sabaody Archipelago. When she saw Zoro attempting to attack a World Noble, she orchestrated a scene where in her "older brother" got "killed" from the Noble's initial shot in order to prevent an Admiral from coming to the island.

In this form she has similar, although obviously more childish, facial features, and is not as tall nor as buxom as in her adult form. Her outfit consists of a white low-cut tank top that exposes both her midriff and cleavage, along with a pair of orange-and-black striped buckled shorts with long thin suspenders. She also wears black high-heeled boots which reach up to her calves, with large laces coming from the openings and a pair of hot pink and dark red stockings with a yellow sun-like motif on them (a pattern seen other times in the One Piece world).

Nefertari Vivi cosplay

Her bangs started out at about chin-length, but were past her shoulders by her last appearance before the timeskip. She most often has her hair pulled back into a ponytail. She is also very slender-bodied having long thin legs and arms and prominent large breasts. She tends to wear less revealing or alluring clothing than the women in the Straw Hat crew (Nami and Robin).

A princess of Alabasta. She is the daughter of Nefertari Cobra and Nefertari Titi. She is one of the main antagonists of the Reverse Mountain Arc, but shortly after traveled with the Straw Hat Pirates for most of the Alabasta Saga.

Many of her shirts feature four-letter words, such as "MODE", "GOLD", or "EVIL", similar to a shirt that Bell-mère once wore that had "MACE" on it.

Nico Robin Cosplay

She has no trademark looks like the others though her all-purple cowgirl look from when she was first introduced is often associated as her trademark look. Like Nami, she seems to be fond of revealing outfits, as she is frequently wearing somewhat revealing clothing that are either dark in color (often black or purple) or consists of leather. She is also fond of high heels, and they do not seem to affect the way she walks or her speed.




She is the seventh member of the crew the sixth to join and like Nami and Usopp is the second to rejoin, doing so near the end of the Enies Lobby Arc. Robin is also the first member to have once been an antagonist. She ate the Hana Hana no Mi. During the Post-War arc,she became involved with the Revolutionaries for two years. Her dream is to find the Rio Poneglyph which tells the True History. She currently holds a bounty of Beli80,000,000.

Ichigo Kurosaki cosplay

Despite claiming not to care about what other people think about him, he attempts to maintain a detached and "cool" image.

His outspoken, hot-headed demeanor is a trait Ichigo himself has acknowledged, and if somebody picks a fight with him, he cannot help fighting back. He coldly refers to his teachers as "instructors".

Sasuke is the second and youngest son of the Konoha Military Police Force captain and Uchiha clan head Fugaku Uchiha, and his wife Mikoto. Mikoto named him after the father of the Third Hokage in hopes that he would grow up to be a great ninja like his namesake.

Gaara was once a kind child who, despite their fear of him, tried desperately to be friendly towards others. His uncle's actions twisted his personality. Misled into believing nobody cared for him, Gaara used his sand to create the kanji on his forehead for "love" as a symbol of his resolution to be a "demon loving only itself" and to live up to the name his mother gave him. Gaara became emotionally withdrawn and strangely silent, as he was consumed with loathing towards everyone but himself and "Mother", the voice of Shukaku in his head.




A major supporting character of the series, and originally introduced as an antagonist. Gaara was the third jinchūriki of Shukaku: the One-Tail and by Part II, he became the Fifth Kazekage of Sunagakure, and had his tailed beast extracted from inside him by Akatsuki.

Hinata Hyūga cosplay

Back in her childhood, as a result of her clan's high expectations as their heiress and her father's grueling training and him deeming her as a failure, Hinata had become very timid and lacked self-confidence.However, she has shown to be a very hard worker (something that her father initially failed to notice) as she continuously strive to change herself for the better, though initially this lack of self-confidence would hinder her on even missions. As the series progressed, Hinata became more open about her opinion and confident overall, as she demonstrated a willingness on occasion.

                                               



Hinata growing self-confidence mainly comes from her long-standing admiration for Naruto, as she was inspired by his enthusiasm and his unyielding determination to never give up no matter what the odds. As the series progressed, her admiration towards him grew into genuine care and affection eventually leading her to fall in love with him.

Sai Cosplay

Sai's social awkwardness tended to get people angry, because he would often speak without considering his words and their effects on people. This was due to his inability to realise the difference between a rude statement and a true statement. Sai had read somewhere in a book that giving somebody a nickname would bring you closer to that person and develop your friendship, this resulted in Sai hurting Sakura Haruno's feelings, because he called her ugly, stating the first true character trait that came to his mind. This also nearly led to enraging Chōji, while eating barbecue with Team Asuma and Team Kakashi he nearly called him "fatso". Luckily Naruto covered his mouth before he could finish.




Sai is an ANBU-level shinobi of Konohagakure and is from the disbanded faction: Root. He later became one of the main supporting characters of the series, and is a member of Team Kakashi, having replaced Sasuke Uchiha.

Pain Cosplay

As a child, Nagato was a sensitive, kind boy, prone to crying, and was traumatised by the idea of killing others, even if it was to save his friend Yahiko. Scared and unsure of his place in the world, he desired to help those he cared about, but never knew how. He was consistently respectful and kind to Konan, who he claimed to be his "angel" in Amegakure. He was shown protecting her, without request or hesitation from Jiraiya before his battle with his former teacher. Apparently, she was the only Akatsuki member that addressed him by name. He was aware of Konan's feelings towards Yahiko and left them alone to have personal time together.





 Pain also known as Nagato, was the recognised leader of Akatsuki and Amegakure as well as a major antagonist of the series. Referred to as "Leader" by all Akatsuki members (except for his partner, Konan) he directed the actions of the rest of the members and maintained authority over them. It was later revealed that he had secretly collaborated with Tobi, who was the real leader of Akatsuki. Nagato is also a descendant of the Uzumaki clan, who are distantly related to the Senju clan.
