Gyomei is a hulking figure in the Demon Slayer Corps, standing as one of the tallest characters in the series and easily towering over his fellow Hashira. He is a powerfully built, extremely muscular man, with a slightly tanned skin tone. He has a medium, spiky, black hair that is shaved along the sides of his head and a prominent scar running horizontally across his forehead. Having been blind since childhood, he has white eyes with no visible irises or pupils. His eyes frequently tear-up when he gets emotional. Gyomei wears a standard black Demon Slayer Corps uniform, tinted dark gray in the anime. His uniform consists of a button-up jacket with a stand-up collar and long sleeves, featuring gold buttons, a left breast pocket, and the kanji for Destroy (滅めつ, Metsu?) engraved on the back of the uniform. However, Gyomei’s jacket is heavily customized; it is worn with only the last button fastened, and the sleeves of his jacket and undershirt rolled up. His uniform is secured at the waist with the standard white belt and paired of matching tattsuke-hakama pants. Beneath the uniform, he wears a purple kimono, complete with a prominent white yuban collar. Around his lower legs, he wears a white bandages wrapped around his shins in place of traditional kyahan. For footwear, Gyomei wears white zōri sandals with gray straps, notably without tabi socks. Draped over his shoulders is a distinct olive-green happi, which features religious iconography. The collared frame of the happi bears the kanji for the Japanese Nianfo/Shin Buddha chant (南な無む阿あ弥み陀だ仏ぶつ, Namu Amida Butsu?) from the top-down, along with the separate kanji all over at the back. Around his neck, he sports a large red-beaded necklace and carries a set of red ojuzu beads when not in battle.
