Kunigami is tall, fair-skinned, with reddish-brown eyes and bright orange, spiky hair that is styled in an undercut. He appears to be very muscular and broad-shouldered.

Kunigami has a very moral personality. He can be very serious about his football career, training, and lifestyle, but he also knows when to relax and enjoy life. He is considered calm yet passionate when it comes to football and can be very rational and careful at times, but he can also be as stubborn as Raichi, with whom he often clashes. Kunigami doesn't let troublemakers or those who play unfairly get away with anything when he's around; he almost gives the impression of being an older brother. Although he is serious most of the time, he can be incredibly appreciative and somewhat embarrassed when others praise him.

Meeting Ryusei Shido impacted Kunigami's mindset and way of acting. His more aggressive and instinctive play overcame his morals and uprightness, and he left Blue Lock, questioning Shido's words. After returning to Blue Lock, Kunigami is shown to be noticeably cooler and more focused, with a newfound playing philosophy, striving to maintain his dominance on the field. Kunigami barely speaks to Isagi and does not speak to anyone else in the stratum. As the Neo-Egoist League progresses, Kunigami is shown to have become deeply selfish, caring only about scoring his own goals, no matter what he has to do to achieve them. His fellow soccer players describe him as a cyborg due to his deeply serious and expressionless demeanor. He has also become rude and disrespectful, often making offensive remarks to the rest of his teammates and rivals, with the sole exception of Noel Noa, but still maintaining a cold attitude towards him. However, deep down, he is still moral and noble, refusing to teach Isagi how to use his ambidexterity to defeat Kaiser, stating that doing so would destroy all of his stats.

He started playing soccer at the age of 6.
His hometown is Akita.
His foot size is 28cm.
His favorite players are Didier Drogba and Olivier Giroud.
Their sleep time is 8 hours.
He mentioned that his weakness is his inability to handle praise and dislike.
His favorite food is seaweed soup. His least favorite food is cereal soaked in milk.
His favorite subject is Physical Education. His least favorite subjects are Modern Japanese and Classics (he doesn't understand why he has to learn them).
He spends his vacation exercising and running on the beach.
His favorite animal is a polar bear.
His fetish is the nape of the neck, and there he looks at both men and women.
Her ideal type is someone who is gentle and cute.
When you bathe, you wash your neck first.
The last time he cried was when he was watching ET.
If I were to buy something impulsively at a convenience store, it would be batteries.
Received seven Valentine's Day chocolates this year.
His favorite anime is One Piece, also mentioning that he likes the relationship between Zoro and Luffy.
His favorite season is spring.
Her favorite song is Silhouette by KANA-BOON (This song is used for the 16th opening of Naruto).
His older sister stopped receiving Christmas presents when he was 9, and because he didn't want her to feel left out, he declined to receive any more.
When asked what he would do if he received 100 million yen (about $700,000), he said he would spend 30 million on soccer, save another 30 million, and donate 40 million to charity.
His favorite motto is "Fair and equitable."
His favorite movie is Iron Man

Superior Physique: Kunigami is one of the Blue Lock forwards who boast an extraordinarily strong and muscular physique, putting this to good use when driving the ball up the field or marking players for defense. After returning from Wild Card and becoming a regular player for Bastard München of the Neo Egoist League, Kunigami is more able to put his physique to good use by catching the ball in the air with his chest between two defenders and outmuscle them while holding them back so he can set up his own shot. Kunigami also has better control of his core and upper body reflexes, as seen when he was able to keep up with Bachira's improved dribbling ability for a few moments during the match against Barça. Anri also noted that Kunigami's physical specs are almost the same as Noel Noa's, something she calls an astonishing feat for his age. Specifically, his cardiopulmonary function, muscle mass, and overall physical conditioning are all close to Noel Noa's.
Power Shot: Kunigami has a near-accurate power shot, specifically from his left leg, which he uses to score incredibly powerful shots, with a standard range for shooting being within 28 meters.
Knuckleball: Standing nearly 40 meters from the goal, Kunigami shoots with such force that it takes away the spin, leaving it with an unpredictable curved trajectory. Kunigami used this shot in Team V's match against Team Z.
Powerful Charge Shot - When in possession and holding off two defenders, Kunigami can outrun his defenders while opening up space for himself and fire a powerful shot with his right foot.
Impetuous Volley: Kunigami leaps using his physical strength and executes a volley in the air. This shot was performed after Isagi took an inaccurate shot against Manshine City, where the angle of the ball deviated, and Kunigami instinctively dove into the path of the shot.
