Akatsuki Cosplay 2026: Member Rings, Konan's Wig and the Cloak We Do Not Sell

The Akatsuki look is one of the most recognisable silhouettes in anime, and it is built from exactly three signals: the black cloak with red clouds, the ring on an assigned finger, and a village headband with a slash through the symbol. Most shops will happily sell you a cloak and stay quiet about the rest. We are going to do the opposite, because the fastest way to waste money on this costume is to buy the wrong piece from the wrong place. We do not stock an Akatsuki cloak, and we do not stock a slashed headband. What we do stock is the accessory almost every build gets wrong — the Akatsuki member sign ring at $19.99 — plus the one Akatsuki character we can dress from the neck up, and a shelf's worth of Akatsuki figures. If you want to browse first, the Naruto collection holds 36 items and the wider cosplay costumes collection holds 211.

What Actually Makes an Akatsuki Cosplay Read

Akatsuki is the missing-nin organisation at the centre of Naruto: Shippuden, and its uniform is deliberately plain so the details carry the character. The cloak is the same for everyone — high collar, red clouds outlined in white, ankle length. That means the cloak identifies the group, and three smaller things identify the member: the ring, the hair, and whatever weapon or prop the character is known for. Hidan without a scythe silhouette is just a person in a cloak. Konan without the blue-purple bob is the same.

This is why we would rather sell you the ring than a near-miss cloak. Cloak quality varies wildly between makers, and the two things worth inspecting before you buy one anywhere are the cloud print — screen-printed clouds with a clean white outline hold up, iron-on transfers crack after a few wears — and the collar, which needs enough interfacing to stand up on its own rather than flopping onto your shoulders in every photo. The slashed headband is genuinely easy to make yourself from a plain forehead protector and a rotary tool or a craft knife, and doing it by hand gives you a cleaner, more deliberate slash than most mass-produced ones.

The Ring: What We Sell, and the One Thing the Listing Does Not Tell You

Every Akatsuki member wears a distinctive ring bearing a single kanji, worn on a specific assigned finger, and the ring is the detail that convention photographers and fellow fans actually check. Ours is $19.99, made from zinc alloy with an epoxy sticker face, silver in colour, weighing roughly 9 grams, and the band is adjustable rather than sized — which is the whole reason it is a safe thing to order online. There is no ring-size chart to get wrong. The package contains one ring.

Now the honest part. The listing carries ten variants, and they are labelled "Ring", "Ring 2", "Ring 3" and so on rather than by member name. That is a shortcoming in our own product page, not a mystery about the product, and we would rather tell you here than have you guess at checkout. If you are cosplaying a specific member and you need that member's sign, email mail@magicstories.co before you order and we will confirm which variant carries which sign. That takes us a minute and saves you a return.

One care note that follows directly from the construction: an epoxy sticker face is not the same as an engraved one. Keep it away from acetone, alcohol wipes and hand sanitiser, take it off before you wash your hands, and do not wear it swimming. Treated that way it is a costume piece that survives a full convention weekend; soaked in solvent it is a plain silver band by Sunday.

Konan: the Akatsuki Member We Can Actually Dress

Konan is the organisation's only female member, and her look is unusually wig-dependent — the blue-purple bob is the recognition point long before anyone reads the cloak. We stock the Konan cosplay wig at $33.77 in blue purple, one size, and unlike most of our figure catalogue this one is genuinely in stock rather than made to order. It sits in both the Naruto collection and our cosplay wigs collection, which runs to 51 pieces.

Two things the listing does not include, so you can plan around them: it is the wig only — the paper flower ornament is not part of it, and that piece is a straightforward origami or craft-foam build in an evening. And it is sold as one size, with the cap circumference not published on the page; if you have a larger or smaller head than average, email us before ordering rather than hoping. For styling, washing and cap-fit technique, our wig choosing and care guide covers the method and applies to any wig, wherever you buy it.

Akatsuki on a Shelf: Which Members You Can Actually Buy

If you would rather collect the organisation than wear it, more of Akatsuki is available in figure form than in costume form. At the entry end, the Hidan Funko Pop! is $7.95 — the cheapest Akatsuki piece we carry. Obito Uchiha unmasked, the man behind the Tobi persona, and Madara Uchiha, the name the organisation's origins trace back to, are both $13.95 Entertainment Earth exclusives that ship in a 0.36 mm EcoTek Pop Protector.

There is also a Hidan chase bundle at $41.95, and the maths there deserves stating plainly: it contains two figures — one chase and one non-chase — while two singles would be $15.90. You are not paying for a bundle discount, you are paying for the chase variant's scarcity, which is a real thing in the Funko market but is not a saving. Buy it if you want the chase; buy the $7.95 single if you just want Hidan on the shelf.

Higher up, Orochimaru Seeker of Immortality — a former Akatsuki member — is Bandai's S.H.Figuarts release at $81.99, standing slightly under 6 inches with the Sword of Kusanagi and Hidden Shadow Snake Hands accessories. And at the collector end sits the Megahouse Precious G.E.M. Itachi Uchiha Susano Ver. at $509.99, with an LED-base edition at $559.99. Those are statue-class prices for a statue-class piece, and we quote the manufacturer's own specification rather than inventing dimensions. Our guide to buying authentic anime figures has the box-and-paint checklist if you are weighing a grey-market listing against ours.

Building the Look: What to Spend and Where

A realistic Akatsuki budget from our shelf looks like this. The ring at $19.99 plus the Konan wig at $33.77 is $53.76, and the cloak comes from a costume specialist elsewhere. Adding the $7.95 Hidan Pop brings you to $61.71 — still under our $70 free-shipping threshold, which is worth knowing before you assume it clears. Add the $13.95 Madara Pop instead and you reach $75.66, which does clear it.

Below $70, shipping is a flat $9.99 within the US and $14.99 internationally, and delivery usually runs up to 10 working days, longer on international routes going through customs. Order weeks ahead of a convention, not the week before. If you are building a group Akatsuki — and it is one of the best group cosplays going, because the shared cloak makes a crowd of five instantly legible — consolidate into one order to clear the threshold once rather than three times.

Returns, and Why the Ring Is the Low-Risk Piece

You have 30 days from receiving an item to request a return, unworn and unused, with tags and in the original packaging, plus proof of purchase. Start by emailing mail@magicstories.co; if it is accepted we send a return shipping label, and parcels sent back without requesting a return first are not accepted. Approved refunds go to the original payment method within 10 business days, and EU orders also carry the statutory 14-day right to cancel. We do not do in-place exchanges — a swap means returning the first item and placing a new order.

That policy matters most for garments, which is precisely why the pieces we sell for this build are the low-risk ones. An adjustable ring cannot be the wrong size. A one-size wig has one fit question, and we will answer it by email before you order. The high-return-risk item in an Akatsuki build is the cloak, cut to a chart you have to measure yourself against — and that is the item we are telling you to buy from someone who specialises in it. Our cosplay size guide covers the measuring method so you can judge anyone's chart, and the broader Naruto, One Piece and Attack on Titan cosplay guide covers the rest of the Naruto roster.

Quick Answers

• Does Magic Stories sell an Akatsuki cloak? No. We do not stock an Akatsuki cloak or a slashed village headband, and we would rather say so than sell you a near-miss. What we do stock for an Akatsuki build is the Akatsuki member sign ring at $19.99 and the Konan cosplay wig at $33.77, plus Akatsuki-member figures. Source the cloak from a costume specialist and check the cloud print is screen-printed with a clean white outline, and that the collar has enough interfacing to stand up on its own.
• How much is the Akatsuki ring and what size is it? The Akatsuki member sign ring is $19.99 with an adjustable band, so there is no ring size to get wrong. It is zinc alloy with an epoxy sticker face, silver, about 9 grams, and the package contains one ring. Because the face is an epoxy sticker rather than an engraving, keep it away from acetone, alcohol wipes and hand sanitiser, and take it off before washing your hands.
• Which Akatsuki member's ring will I receive? The listing carries ten variants but labels them "Ring", "Ring 2", "Ring 3" and so on rather than by member name, so the page does not currently tell you which sign each variant carries. If you need a specific member's ring, email mail@magicstories.co before ordering and we will confirm which variant is which. That is a gap in our product page, not a mystery about the product.
• Do you sell a Konan wig? Yes. The Konan cosplay wig is $33.77 in blue purple, one size, and it is genuinely in stock. It appears in both our Naruto collection and our 51-piece cosplay wigs collection. It is the wig alone — the paper flower ornament is not included and is an easy origami or craft-foam build. The cap circumference is not published, so email us first if your head runs larger or smaller than average.
• Which Akatsuki figures can I buy? Hidan Funko Pop! at $7.95 is the cheapest, with a chase bundle at $41.95 that contains one chase plus one non-chase figure. Obito Uchiha unmasked and Madara Uchiha are $13.95 Entertainment Earth exclusives shipping in a 0.36 mm EcoTek Pop Protector. Orochimaru, a former member, is an S.H.Figuarts release at $81.99, just under 6 inches with the Sword of Kusanagi and Hidden Shadow Snake Hands. The Precious G.E.M. Itachi Uchiha Susano Ver. is $509.99, or $559.99 with the LED base.
• Is the Hidan chase bundle cheaper than buying two singles? No. The chase bundle is $41.95 for one chase and one non-chase figure, while two non-chase singles would be $15.90. The premium is for the chase variant's scarcity, which is real in the Funko market, not for bundling. If you specifically want the chase, the bundle is the way to get one; if you just want Hidan on your shelf, buy the $7.95 single.
• What does shipping cost and can I return an Akatsuki order? Shipping is free over $70, otherwise a flat $9.99 within the US and $14.99 internationally, with delivery usually up to 10 working days and longer internationally through customs. Returns are 30 days from receiving the item, unworn with tags and original packaging, started by emailing mail@magicstories.co. Approved refunds reach the original payment method within 10 business days, and there are no in-place exchanges, so a swap means a return plus a new order.
