Appearance
Kankurō wears a black, baggy, full body suit. He also wears a black hood which covers his head completely, and has cat-like ears and a forehead protector on his forehead. Both this and later outfits are derived from traditional bunraku puppeteer costumes; bunraku puppeteers usually wear black outfits and hoods so as not to distract from their puppets.
Personality
One noticible personality trait Kankuro displays is his apparant hatred of children. However, unlike the main series, this is not as clearly defined. It is also shown that he dislikes needless fighting. Kankuro is very loyal to his siblings: Gaara and Temari.
Abilities
Kankurō is a highly talented puppeteer, able to wield three of his puppets at once.
