Like Guy, Lee's appearance remains largely the same over the years, though he adds a standard Konoha flak jacket as a chūnin in Part II, and its redesigned version in The Last: Naruto the Movie. He has bandages around his forearms up to his fingers, covering a set of stitches on his hands that were caused by his rigorous training. Lee later changes his appearance considerably to emulate his idol and sensei, Might Guy: his hair is now in a bowl-cut style he wears a green jumpsuit, orange leg warmers, and a red forehead protector worn as a belt.
He also sported a forehead protector and shinobi sandals. Lee originally wore a white, short-sleeved kimono-shirt with a martial arts belt and dark pants, giving him a more traditional Chinese appearance. As a child, his hair was quite long and fastened in a braid, though he cuts it short by the time he joins Team Guy, letting it curve out and upward. Lee has shiny black hair, round eyes with prominent lower eyelashes, and very thick eyebrows as a result, Naruto calls him "Centipede Brows" (ゲジマユ, Gejimayu, English TV: Bushy Brows). These feelings apparently have changed by adulthood, as Lee ended up marrying someone else and had a son named Metal Lee.
However, Lee's Infinite Tsukuyomi dream was of winning Sakura's affections, implying he still had romantic feelings for her. After the exams, Lee's interest in Sakura went largely unaddressed in the manga, though it is sometimes referenced in the anime while having a match with Lee, Naruto transformed into Sakura, distracting Lee long enough for Naruto to attack him. Although she did not reciprocate his feelings and even considered him weird, she later become more appreciative and friendly towards him after he helped saved her from the Otogakure genin during the Chūnin Exams. When Neji himself was defeated by Naruto Uzumaki, another so-called "failure", he rejects his belief in fate and now holds great respect for Lee, believing that he will surpass the gifted with enough work.ĭuring Part I, Lee revealed he had feelings for Sakura Uchiha. As such, Lee became determined to defeat Neji in order to prove him wrong, though was met with defeat every time. Neji Hyūga, Lee's more talented teammate and rival, found Lee's efforts to be in vain, believing a "failure" could never defeat a "genuis". He can be prone to depression when faced with setbacks.
#NARUTO SOUNDTRACK ROCK LEE SERIES#
One of Lee's recurring themes throughout the series is his drive to succeed, believing with enough hard work and perseverance, he can surpass a natural genius. Lee feels others should show the same respect towards their opponents, and is disgusted whenever someone is unnecessarily cruel to their enemies. This was shown by his befriending of Gaara, forgiving him for crushing his arm and leg - injuries that nearly ended his career as a shinobi. He has a keen sense of honour and respects his opponents, refusing to hold grudges against those who have defeated him, and returning favours to those that have helped him. He also carries a small book and pencil to recall advice that Guy gives him over some time.ĭespite his passionate nature, Lee has also shown strong instincts, staying focused at the task at hand and rarely losing his composure. Lee speaks respectfully to others, never using contractions or swear words and always addressing people with appropriate honourifics (except his teammates, since Lee feels they are close enough to be spoken to informally). He believes that one cannot dislike food and shows strong dedication to his promises when this promise is broken, just barely, he assigns himself arduous training to prevent it from happening again. Under Guy's leadership, Lee has acquired a number of his sensei's personality traits: he is energetic, optimistic, and hot-blooded, and shows the epitome of a "nice guy". He encouraged Lee to keep at it and, in time, began teaching him powerful forms of taijutsu. Neji laughed at him, but their sensei, Might Guy, took a special interest in Lee. During the team's first meeting, Lee vowed to become a powerful ninja without using ninjutsu or genjutsu. After he succeeded in graduating he was added to Team Guy along with Neji Hyūga and Tenten. When he was mocked by his peers because of this, Lee persevered, focusing on taijutsu. During his time in the Academy, Lee proved to have no talent for ninjutsu and genjutsu.
