Overall, his expression appears ominous and intimidating. In the anime, Carne is about 160 cm (5 ft 3 in) tall, 170 cm including his hair.↗↗
Carne wears a stylized dark jumpsuit, on which shoulder-pads are added. He also wears saggy open-crotch pants and sports a large dark headband with the same symbols that pattern Bucciarati 's suit.
