How to fold a flat Rayquaza

Rayquaza is an ancient Pokémon with a striking green, dragon-like appearance that first debuted in the third-generation Ruby and Sapphire series.

Prepare two sheets of green origami paper of the same size to make it.

Fold one sheet in half into a triangle twice, then open it once.

Fold from the large corner toward the long edge, and cut along the center crease made in the middle.

From there, create Rayquaza’s horns.

For the other sheet, fold it in half into a square twice, then slightly cut the open side, and fold the corners all around to shape a long, narrow face.

Draw Rayquaza’s face and yellow patterns, then combine them with the horns to finish!

Zenitsu Agatsuma

Zenitsu Agatsuma

Let’s fold Zenitsu Agatsuma, whose signature features are his yellow and orange hair, using origami.

Fold up the two bottom corners, then fold the newly made corners slightly upward to form the face.

Draw the eyes and eyebrows with colored pens.

When folding the hair, the key is to create a jagged, cut-edge look to capture its distinctive style.

Add the orange hair color with colored pens.

Next, after folding the torso, attach the haori (jacket) and draw the triangular pattern with a felt-tip pen.

Finally, attach the face to the torso to complete it.

Try making Zenitsu—he may be timid, but his Thunder Breathing is super cool!

Tanjiro Kamado

[Origami] How to Fold Tanjiro from Demon Slayer (Kimetsu no Yaiba) — kimetunoyaiba tanjirou
Tanjiro Kamado

Let’s fold Tanjiro Kamado in origami, featuring his green-and-black checkered haori and distinctive facial scar.

We’ll start with the face, shaping the outline by folding the corners of the paper inward.

Once you’ve checked the positions of the eyes and mouth and drawn his expression with a felt-tip pen, add the scar on his forehead in brown.

For the hair, create a three-dimensional look by lifting it up while folding so the forehead scar remains visible.

After making the haori and torso with black and green origami paper, attach them to the face.

Carefully draw the checkered pattern with colored pens, and you’ll have a cool Tanjiro Kamado all done!

Let’s make Nezuko Kamado—one of the most beloved characters—out of origami! For this, you’ll use a total of seven sheets: one 7.5 cm × 7.5 cm sheet in light orange, one in pink, one in black; one 15 cm × 15 cm sheet in red and one in black; plus one 3.75 cm × 3.75 cm sheet in pink and one in green.

It’s also helpful to have red round stickers and small white round stickers on hand—you can layer them to create the eyes.

The hair will be expressed by layering black and red, so be careful with how you make the cuts and the direction you fold the tips of the hair.

Inosuke Hashibira

You’ll create each part separately—the face, upper body, lower body, and swords.

The facial decorations may look tricky, but they’re easy to make by layering a white round sticker with a smaller light-blue round sticker.

The cuts and folds on both sides of the face are key points, so be sure to follow the steps carefully as you work.
