Kisuke Urahara is a tall, lean man with light skin, gray eyes, and messy pale-blond hair. He wears a dark green samue under a black haori with a white diamond pattern, and his signature striped bucket hat often shadows his eyes. He completes the look with wooden geta and carries a fan. Despite his perpetual grin and laid-back demeanor, there is a sharp cunning behind his casual words. Once a captain of the 12th Division and founder of the S.R.D.I., he now runs the Urahara Shop in Karakura Town, acting as an eccentric shopkeeper and a secret ally to those in need. His personality masks a serious, calculating mind that only surfaces in dire situations.
