He has a large tuft of hair that he hides under a dark gray beanie with a white band on the bottom right. He has thin eyes with hot-pink prescription color contacts on them at all times. He has thin, pronounced eyebrows that nearly touch his hairline, as well as sharp, shark-like teeth. He also wears earrings stylized after screws; the right one has a plus-sign head, while the left has a minus-sign head. Main Outfit: Wears a white shirt hidden underneath his work clothes: a yellow-green jumpsuit with a dark brown streak on the sides reaching his ankles. He rolls up his right sleeve to his elbow and the left sleeve up to his forearm. It has several pockets and is the type of clothes that can be worn without worrying about minor stains, which is why Kazuichi never washes it. He accessorizes his jumpsuit with two badges on his left front pocket: one featuring a screw logo, and the other depicting a screwdriver and nail. The block and bolt logos of his former high school, Tōshima Industry High School, are displayed on the front right and back of his jumpsuit, and the yellow version of the bolt on his right thigh pocket. It has a zipper down the front and a mini light clipped to the right waist. In his official design sketch, he is seen carrying the traditional Soda family screwdriver, with the family kanji imprinted on its brown handle. He wears bright yellow sneakers that have the block Tōshima Industry High School logo on their back, as well as white laces. Swimsuit: His swimsuit in Danganronpa S: Ultimate Summer Camp consists of bright green swim trunks secured with a white drawstring. He retains his beanie alongside the block and bolt symbols of his former high school adorning his trunks. Backstory: Kazuichi had a rough upbringing due to his family's financial problems. He ran the family bike shop together with his father, but they struggled to sell anything. Their only customers were those who needed a flat tire fixed or air pumped. He claimed his father was "hopeless", so he was the one who always helped out at the shop. Kazuichi's family was so poor that he had to fake being sick and stay home to skip the middle school trip, though he had other reasons as well such as finding his classmates "boring." He received a beating from his father when he found out. Despite the stagnant business, Kazuichi got plenty of practice with his mechanic skills after constantly being surrounded by junk and tools since childhood. He grew a habit of taking things apart and putting them back together, as well as fixing things that need fixing, from bikes, cars, and kids' toys, to household appliances. He tinkered, modified, and invented various things both at home and school. His greatest invention was attaching an engine to the machine that draws chalk lines on soccer fields. However, it escaped through the school entrance at full speed, without turning or stopping.
