Best Orochimaru Costume Guide

Orochimaru is a power-hungry Sannin from the Japanese anime series, Naruto. His lifelong goal is to learn all of the secrets the world has to offer. If you think no one could accomplish this in their lifetime, you’d be right. That’s why Orochimaru is trying to find the key to immortality.

He’s often referred to as twisted. He experienced his parent’s death as a child and also observed how other people were affected by the loss of a loved one. His exposure to death is probably where his desire for immortality began. He is charismatic. But, this has led him to gain a following and develop somewhat of a god complex. Through his many experiments, he can transform himself into multiple forms. To obtain the power of immortality as Orochimaru, you will need to look the part. Dress up in an Orochimaru Wig, Face Paint, Orochimaru Costume, Akatsuki Cloak, Bandage Roll, Ninja Shoes, Rubber Snakes, and Itachi Ring.

Orochimaru Cosplay Costumes

Orochimaru has several layers of complexity to his character and his look. His clothes aren’t overly challenging to find, but there are some subtle details to it. Most of the time he’s seen wearing grey garbs and then a robe or tunic over the top. These are often tied together with some rope and bandages. Wear a simple pair of sandals for the shoes, as well as some blue-stone jewelry. 

The key to Orochimaru’s aesthetic, though, is his snake-like look and sickly pale skin. His eyes have slitted pupils with purple marks around the edges. He also has fangs. If you manage to pull his creepy look together, the simple tunic or kimono will have an even better effect! We’d love to see how you manage to capture the look of Orochimaru from Naruto, so submit us a photo or two to Costume Wall’s Halloween Costume Contest!

About Orochimaru

Orochimaru is a fictional character from the anime series, Naruto. From a young age, he stood out as a genius and prodigy. His lack of humility came with the negative impression of being a little sadistic. Most assumed this was just because of the death of his parents and thought nothing more of it. However, it pushed him to want to study kinjutsu and gain the knowledge and power that came from it. The problem is, no one can learn it all in their lifetime. Orochimaru decided the only way he’d be able to accomplish his mission was to be immortal. And to achieve that, he began conducting many dangerous experiments.

Orochimaru’s goal is to become the “ultimate being,” the most powerful of all. His goal quickly turned into an obsession. His selfishness and hunger for power have led to many deaths. His physical and mental wellbeing hurt both others and himself.
