He has a scar on his back, a reminder of when Kiku attacked him when they were younger, and a panda-shaped birthmark above his buttocks.

Personality And Interests
One of the oldest nations, he happens to be an extremely superstitious and religious type. He tries to act as an older brother to the other Asian nations, but fails to be treated as one. He tends to end his sentences with the suffix "-aru", though sometimes he ends then with "-ahen" (opium) when conversing with Arthur. He has a companion named "Shinatty-chan", an old man in a Hello Kitty knockoff costume.
