Shoto is a tall and rather muscular young man who is well-built for his age. He has short hair and wears bangs, parted twice to avoid obscuring his vision. His hair is split between white on his right side and red on his left, this unusual coloring being due to his Quirk. He also possesses heterochromia iridium, which causes his left eye's iris to appear turquoise, while his right is a dark gray.
