Scott Pilgrim is a relatable character who dresses in casual streetwear. With his awkwardness and fear of heartbreak, Scott takes to situations with a fair amount of realism. That is, however, until he learns of Romona’s evil exes. It’s not exactly something you want to have to deal with when you first meet someone, but Scott doesn’t have much choice. Whether he’s playing in a battle of the bands or casually walking down the street, the exes will set a challenge for him. Luckily for him, he has quick reflexes and is skilled in martial arts, so he’s able to overcome most of the exes in stride. Romona tells him again and again that she’s not worth it, but Scott won’t back down from a challenge or seven.

Once you’ve got your Scott Pilgrim costume on, guitar in hand, and Romona by your side, it’s time to start some epic fights! We’d love to see how this costume turned out by following this Scott Pilgrim costume guide, so don’t forget to submit a photo to annual our Halloween Costume Contest!
