Tamaki's hero costume consists of a black bodysuit decorated with gold plating around the arms and shoulders.
When wearing his school uniform, Tamaki wears his tie slightly loosened and his shirt only partially tucked in. His shoulders are usually hunched, and he avoids making eye-contact with people.
He has messy, indigo hair, which sticks out behind his head, and thin, tired-looking eyes, partially covered by his bangs. His ears are longer than most, their tips pointy and somewhat elf-like.
Tamaki is a tall young man, with rather pale skin.
