* LooksLikeOrlok: Barely looks human.
* InformedAbility: Mufu can't believe somebody managed to defeat Mozuku, which clearly doesn't go with him being quite obviously one of the weakest characters in the series.

* BerserkButton: Harming Shigure.
* BalloonBelly: His special technique enables him to expand massively his frame, turning into something resembling a slug, as well as fusing his flesh together to form a wheel.
* BigEater: Almost to HorrorHunger levels. He eats any thing edible and many things which are not, like rotten rice, which utterly disgusts Shigure. It seems, in his first encounter with Jubei, that he cannot work his techniques without having his stomach very filled up, but he later uses them anyways.
* BigFun: He is quite jolly.
* DoesNotLikeShoes: Possibly due to BarefootPoverty or because he was imprisoned on the Hiruko headquarters until that point.
* DumbMuscle: Rather dim-witted, but very strong and with surprising physical abilities.
* TheFriendNobodyLikes: It's never revealed why was he imprisoned in the Hiruko cave, but it gets quite implied that it was for being an annoying simpleton.
* TheHeart: He is actually very good natured, and desperately wants Shigure to know that not all the Hiruko ninjas are vicious fiends. His focus episode is even named “The Heart of Hiruko.”
* HeroicSacrifice: Gives his life to shield Jubei from Yamidoro’s attacks.
* {{Kevlard}}: When in wheel form, kunais rebound harmlessly against his skin. He later takes an impressive effort by Yamidoro to be finally felled.
* LetsGetDangerous: When he gets angry, he turns ''scary''.
* LightningBruiser: After turning his body into a wheel, he becomes a unstoppable force.
* LoonyFan: Towards Shigure.

* SuperSenses: Has an incredibly sense of smell.
* RollingAttack: Turns into a human wheel to reach Shigure's captors and rescue her. Subverted in which he doesn't use it offensively, but only for defense and mobility purposes.
