In the anime series, he wears his school uniform most of the time for the first few major parts of the story (in fact, for all of the first season and half of the second). While in school, he wears a light blue jumpsuit, in contrast with Yusuke's green one and the dark blue ones worn by rest of the male students in Sarayashiki Junior High. His overall appearance, as well as his dress sense, are likely a homage to the classic Japanese 'bad boy' mythology from the 1950s. Manga-exclusive outfit from the Genkai Tournament. He has an angular face with narrow gray eyes (revealed in The Cape of No Return), high cheekbones and a slender pointed nose. He has thick red-orange hair that is greased back into a pompadour-type hairstyle that is popular with delinquents. He is the tallest member of the team, standing at about six feet -making him very tall by Japanese standards, as this is considered well above average. Kuwabara has a defined muscular build with broad shoulders.
