Shoto is a moderately tall and rather muscular young man who is well-built for his age. He has quite long hair, though it doesn't pass his neck, and wears bangs, parted twice as to not obscure his vision. His hair is evenly split between two colors: white on his right side and crimson red on his left, this unusual coloring is due to his Quirk. As another result of this, he also possesses heterochromia iridium, which makes his left eye's iris appear turquoise, while his right is dark gray.
