Whether through a striking outfit, an unforgettable attitude, or a mysterious aura, these heroes and anti-heroes have influenced generations of fans.
In this article, we present our selection of the most stylish manga characters , those whose looks remain etched in your memories... and perhaps in your wardrobe too.
Gojo Satoru – Jujutsu Kaisen
Gojo Satoru embodies the new icon of modern manga : powerful, arrogant, funny, but also incredibly classy. With his black headband or glasses, his silver hair, and his unearthly blue eyes, he is visually unforgettable. Teacher by day, the strongest wizard in the universe by night, he exudes an almost divine calm and superiority. His understated attire and casual demeanor contrast with the gravity of his battles, making each appearance spectacular. Gojo is the perfect balance of raw power and pure style.
Sousuke Aizen – Bleach
Sosuke Aizen is the master of manipulation and absolute calm. This character embodies silent power : never a word raised above another, never a wasted movement. His appearance evolves throughout the story, going from a classic captain to an almost godlike entity, all while maintaining a refined elegance. His slicked-back hair, cold gaze, and immaculate clothing symbolize his rise to a form of perfection. Aizen doesn't seek attention — he commands respect simply by his presence.
Levi Ackerman – Attack on Titan
Small, quiet, but formidable, Levi Ackerman is one of the most respected characters in the Attack on Titan universe. His strict military look, his boots, his icy gaze, and his precise gestures make him a symbol of absolute control. An elite captain, he embodies efficiency in all its simplicity. Levi is neither talkative nor demonstrative, but his charisma explodes in every scene. His style is austere, but terribly effective — just like him.
Dazai Osamu – Bungou Stray Dogs
Dazai is one of the most ambiguous and fascinating characters in manga. A former mafia member turned detective, he oscillates between absurd humor and existential darkness. His long beige coat, his bandages, his absent-minded expression, and his cynical remarks create a disconcerting contrast. He never shouts, he imposes nothing, and yet he attracts everyone's attention. Dazai is a character with a melancholic, almost literary style, who exudes a strange and irresistible charm.
Kakashi Hatake-Naruto
Kakashi , the copycat ninja, is a master of effortless style. Permanently masked, Sharingan eye concealed, silver hair ruffled… his design has become an icon in its own right. He embodies the quiet elegance of the experienced mentor. Always in combat gear, he maintains a calm tone, a supple posture, and an understated sense of humor. His restraint and mystery contribute to his charisma. Kakashi is the perfect example of a character whose style relies on simplicity, control, and intelligence.
Light Yagami – Death Note
Light is the epitome of icy charm. A brilliant student, well-groomed, and always impeccable, he hides boundless ambition behind a demure exterior. When he gets his hands on the Death Note, he becomes Kira, a self-proclaimed vigilante and soon-to-be self-proclaimed god. His look almost never changes, and it's precisely this stability that makes him so disturbing. He's always clean, always calm, even when he's manipulating or killing. His style is based on total control, on the perfect management of his image. And that's what makes him so captivating.
Trafalgar D. Water Law – One Piece
Trafalgar Law stands out in One Piece for his rare blend of calm, strategy, and strong visual style. Patterned cap, black hooded coat, visible tattoos, giant saber: he cuts an instantly recognizable figure. Unlike the other exuberant pirates in the universe, Law is calm, methodical, and cold. His gaze betrays little emotion, but every word is heavy with meaning. He is the archetype of the intelligent and feared captain, whose style of dress and quiet demeanor command respect.
Shoto Todoroki – My Hero Academia
Shoto Todoroki is one of the most visually impressive heroes of his generation. The son of Endeavor, he physically embodies the conflict between two powers: ice and fire. His half-frozen face, two-toned hair, apparent calm, and gaze marked by family trauma make him a strong and profound character. He never raises his voice, but his presence is weighty. Even in hero attire, he maintains a certain restraint in the expression of his emotions. His style is based on this inner duality — and he carries it with him at all times.
Future Trunks – Dragon Ball Z
Future Trunks is one of the most memorable characters in Dragon Ball. He arrives in the present with a rare aura of gravity and power : purple hair, a gigantic sword, a short combat jacket... everything about him evokes survival and determination. He comes from a devastated world, which is reflected in his gaze, always focused and serious. Unlike most explosive Saiyans, Trunks remains calm. His unique look blends science fiction, military, and post-apocalyptic, making him instantly cult. He embodies a mature, tragic, and determined style.
Killua Zoldyck – Hunter x Hunter
Killua Zoldyck is one of the most fascinating and contrasting characters in Hunter x Hunter. He's both a smiling child and a highly trained assassin. His appearance is simple: messy white hair, a baggy t-shirt, shorts, and sneakers. Yet, behind this casual look lies an icy violence. Killua can change his tone in an instant, going from gentle to lethal. This constant contrast between his innocent appearance and his extreme danger creates a powerful visual tension. His blank stare when he's in killer mode is unforgettable. He doesn't need armor or an elaborate costume to impose his style: it's all about his posture, his aura... and the feeling that he could take you out in an instant.
Whether they are ninjas, wizards, pirates or assassins, these manga characters all have one thing in common : they exude a unique visual charisma. Their style lies not only in their appearance, but in the energy they exude, in their posture, their gaze, their way of asserting themselves. Whether it is the casual class of Gojo Satoru, the disturbing calm of Aizen, the duality of Shoto Todoroki or the tragic elegance of Trunks, each of them has become a visual icon of manga.
These characters inspire not only millions of fans, but also fashion, cosplay, illustrations, and even some streetwear. At Irosuki, we draw inspiration from these powerful universes to create unique pieces to wear in real life.
