Zenitsu is cowardly, weak-willed, and anxious, He has rather low self-esteem despite his talent and strength, even considering himself useless. Zenitsu claims he wants to live a modest, normal life. Zenitsu is also shown to be something of a wannabe womanizer. This womanizing nature is shown to override his docile and quiet personality, particularly when he believes his fellow classmates are "flirting" with cute girls.
