Character Profile

Yukari Takeba is one of the central characters in Persona 3 Reload and one of the earliest members of S.E.E.S.

She appears cheerful, attractive, sociable, and confident, but beneath that bright exterior lies a lonely and sensitive personality. Yukari deeply values human connections yet struggles to trust others completely, fearing that people may discover the pain she carries from her past.

The protagonist is one of the few people who truly understands her, as both have experienced the loss of a parent. Throughout the story, multiple scenes imply that Yukari develops romantic feelings toward the protagonist.

Yukari greatly admires her father and almost idolizes him, but her relationship with her mother is strained. After her father's death, her mother's lifestyle left Yukari feeling hurt and disconnected. She eventually lived on her own for several years before moving into the S.E.E.S dormitory.

These experiences made her independent and responsible, but also cautious and emotionally guarded.

Following the protagonist's sacrifice, Yukari becomes impatient, vulnerable, and emotionally exhausted. Unable to face her grief, she withdraws from others and focuses solely on returning to normal life. Through Mitsuru Kirijo's support and guidance, she gradually accepts her feelings and moves forward.

By the end of the story, Yukari becomes more open and optimistic, inviting Aigis to live with her and beginning a new chapter of life.

Size Buying Guide

How to Choose the Right Size

This costume follows a standard fit, but the fabric has very little stretch.

When viewing the product page, click:

Size Guide

The measurements shown represent finished garment measurements rather than body measurements.

Before ordering, measure:

  • Height
  • Shoulder Width
  • Bust
  • Waist
  • Hips

using inches.


Size Example

MeasurementExample
Height71 in
Shoulder Width18 in
Bust45 in
Waist35 in
Hips46 in

For example, Women's XL typically fits:

RequirementWomen's XL
Height69–71 in
Shoulder18–19 in
Bust43–45 in
Waist35–37 in
Hips45–47 in

In this case, Women's XL would provide a comfortable fit while allowing room for movement.


Important Sizing Notes

If your measurements fall between two sizes:

  • Choose the larger size
  • Especially if you plan to pose frequently at conventions or photoshoots

The pink top and black jacket are designed with a more fitted silhouette. Sizing up generally improves comfort and mobility.

If only the jacket requires adjustment while other measurements fit correctly, you can choose:

Custom Size (+$29.99)

and specify the required modifications when placing your order.

Choosing a smaller size for a tighter appearance is generally not recommended.


Wearing Guide

For the most accurate Yukari Takeba appearance:

  1. Put on the white shirt and fasten the collar.
  2. Attach the neck accessory and oversized red bow.
  3. Wear the pink vest and smooth out the sleeves.
  4. Put on the pleated skirt.
  5. Wear the black stockings.
  6. Put on the glove.
  7. Secure the thigh holster to the outer side of your right thigh.
  8. Wear the black jacket naturally open without buttoning it.

The overall look should feel:

  • Neat but not overly formal
  • Tactical but youthful
  • Energetic yet practical

Will the Stockings Slide Down Easily?

The included stockings rely primarily on elasticity and do not feature built-in silicone grip strips.

If you choose the correct size, most users report no major issues.

For extra security, many cosplayers recommend:

  • Fashion tape
  • Double-sided body tape
  • Adjusting the stocking tension before wearing

If the stockings begin to slide during an event, simply reposition and tighten them as needed.


How Should I Choose My Size?

Always refer to the product-specific size chart.

EZcosplay sizing differs from standard US, UK, and EU sizing systems.

For finished garment size charts:

  • Compare your actual body measurements
  • Leave a small amount of extra room
  • Size up if between sizes

Custom sizing is available and requires:

  • Height
  • Weight
  • Bust
  • Waist
  • Hip measurements

Please note that custom orders generally require 20–35 business days and are not eligible for unconditional returns.


Is This Costume In Stock?

Except for products labeled:

24H Ship

all costumes are made to order.

Average production times:

Product TypeProduction Time
Costume7–35 Business Days
Wig5–20 Days
Shoes5–20 Days

Average shipping times:

Shipping MethodEstimated Time
Economic Delivery10–16 Days
Standard Delivery6–10 Days
Express Delivery3–5 Days

For this particular costume, the average production time is approximately:

20 Business Days

because it is no longer a newly released design and has a relatively straightforward construction.


How Far In Advance Should I Order?

For conventions, cosplay competitions, and seasonal events:

Order at least 1–2 months in advance.

This is especially important during:

  • Convention season
  • Holiday periods
  • Halloween season
  • Custom-size orders

Can Coupons Be Used?

If the product page states:

"NO coupons can be used for this product"

then discount codes and coupons are not applicable because the item is already offered at the maximum promotional price.

Cosplay Tips

Style the Wig Correctly

Yukari's signature brown hair has a soft, layered appearance.

For maximum accuracy:

  • Add a slight inward curl at the ends
  • Use minimal hairspray
  • Maintain natural volume

The goal is to create a relaxed and lively appearance rather than a heavily styled look.


Position the Thigh Holster Properly

The tactical thigh holster is one of Yukari's most recognizable accessories.

For the best proportions:

  • Position it roughly one-third down from the top of the thigh
  • Avoid placing it too low
  • Adjust the straps for comfort

Proper placement significantly improves the overall silhouette.


Join a Full S.E.E.S Group Cosplay

One of the most popular trends within the Persona cosplay community is building a complete S.E.E.S team.

Recommended group members include:

  • Makoto Yuki
  • Mitsuru Kirijo
  • Akihiko Sanada
  • Aigis
  • Shinjiro Aragaki

Group cosplay content consistently performs well on:

  • Instagram
  • TikTok
  • Reddit
  • Convention photography communities

Real Customer Reviews

Overall Feedback

Customers consistently praise this costume for its balance between accuracy and wearability.

The combination of:

  • Shirt
  • Vest
  • Jacket
  • Skirt
  • Bow
  • Stockings
  • Tactical Holster

creates a highly recognizable Yukari Takeba appearance.

Unlike many complex cosplay costumes, this design remains comfortable for extended convention use.


Customer Review – @Jasmine

"I chose a medium size to avoid the jacket being too tight, and everything fit perfectly, from the skirt to the shirt."

She especially praised the tactical holster design.

The holster not only includes adjustable straps but also connects directly to attachment points inside the skirt, helping prevent it from slipping during movement.


Customer Review – @Jolyne !!

"The fit was excellent and surprisingly comfortable."

She noted that many cosplay costumes can be difficult for people with more pronounced curves, but this costume fit well overall.

She also highlighted the thigh holster design, noting that it remained comfortable even for wearers with fuller thighs.


Customer Review – @outono.cosplay

Outdoor convention full body cosplay shot of Yukari Takeba worn by customer outono.cosplay

"The overall quality is great and very comfortable. The jacket is something I would honestly wear outside of cosplay."

She also appreciated that the jacket features real, usable pockets.

However, she mentioned one minor issue:

"The thigh holster on my medium size was slightly loose for my leg, so I made a few simple adjustments."

Aside from that, she reported that the rest of the costume fit very well.
