Kinji is a tall young man with tan skin and a muscular build. He has small magenta-colored eyes with thin slitted eyebrows and a thin mustache made of stubble. While at Jujutsu High, Hakari had black hair styled into short twisted locks with a fade below his brow line. His hair is currently dyed blonde and in the shape of a puffy, tapered afro that slicks back toward the rear of his head. Kinji dressed the part of a bookie. He sported a white tank-top beneath his dark fur coat along with gray pants and light-colored boots. Hakari is a self-absorbed individual who cares little for the rules and regulations of Jujutsu High. Yuta Okkotsu describes him as moody, and most students around his age consider him a good-for-nothing. Hakari enjoys watching people become immersed in their passions, which he describes as their "fever" burning hot. He is clever and channels his own fever into manipulating others. Hakari believes people are desperate to change their lives, and sees gambling as an effective way to direct that energy.
