Kisuke Urahara coloring pages collect 16 printable designs of the striped-hat shopkeeper from Bleach, from face close-ups and fan portraits to action poses, full-length standing views, and one chibi.
What’s Inside This Collection
Face Close-Ups
Three pages fill the frame with his face and hair, all without the hat. One shows tousled hair and a calm stare, one is a profile view with a faint smile, and one is a head-and-shoulders portrait with the edge of a striped fan at the bottom.
Hat and Fan Portraits
Five pages feature the striped bucket hat. He holds a folding fan in front of his face on one page, a cat sits on top of his hat on another, and he forms a heart shape with his hands and closes his eyes on a third. A close-up of the hat sits in front of a window frame, and the last is a chibi version holding a fan.
Action Poses
Five pages show motion. He crouches with a long blade held upright, raises an arm to his hat beneath a flowing cloak, and drops into a low crouch with a sword across his body. Another has him leaping in a hooded cloak, and the last is a wide lunge with a blade.
Full-Length Standing Views
Two pages show his whole figure. One has him standing with a sword and a coat patterned with diamonds, and the other has him resting both hands on a cane in front of him.
Urahara Versus Reigai
One wide page places two faces side by side, one with the striped hat and one without, with crossed blades between them.
What Kisuke Urahara Coloring Pages Do
Fine motor control is a core benefit of structured coloring for ages 2 through 7, according to the American Academy of Pediatrics, and while Bleach appeals more to older fans, the thin vertical stripes of the hat and the diamond pattern on the coat make these pages a precision workout at any age.
Anxiety fell measurably after structured coloring sessions in a 2005 Art Therapy Journal study, and the face close-ups, with their large calm areas of hair and clothing, suit the slow, even shading that goes with that result.
Kisuke Urahara is a character from Bleach, the manga by Tite Kubo that ran in Weekly Shonen Jump from August 2001 to August 2016, with an anime that began in October 2004. He is a former Soul Reaper captain who runs the Urahara Shop in Karakura Town, and he is easy to spot by his striped bucket hat and wooden sandals.
How to Color Kisuke Urahara Pages Well
- Hat: alternate green and white stripes and keep each stripe the same width all the way around the curve.
- Coat: a deep green coat with a lighter diamond pattern gives the figure a clear shape against a light background.
- Hair: a warm blond with a slightly darker shade near the roots makes the tousled strands stand out.
- Cat page: a black or gray cat shows clearly against the striped hat and keeps the face in view below.
- Backgrounds: pale gray or cream keeps attention on the hat, the fan, and the blade.
5 Creative Craft Ideas With Kisuke Urahara Coloring Pages
1. Striped Hat Bookmark
Color one of the hat portraits, trim a tall strip that keeps the hat at the top, and cover it with clear tape.
2. Fan Greeting Card
Color the portrait with the folding fan, glue it to the front of a folded sheet, and write a short message inside.
3. Chibi Desk Tent
Color the chibi page, glue it to a card folded into a tent, and set it beside a monitor or a shelf of manga volumes.
4. Face-Off Poster
Color the two faces on the Urahara versus Reigai page, mount the sheet on black paper, and add a thin border of silver.
5. Three-Tone Shading Study
Color a face close-up using only three shades of one color, from light to dark, to practice smooth shading.
