[[File:Ending 03 KHIII .png|200px|thumb|left|Isa, as he appears after being recompleted in ''Kingdom Hearts III''.]]
[[File:Isa KHBBS.png|100px|thumb|Isa as a teenager in ''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep''.]]
Isa wears a short-sleeved, navy blue jacket with a light blue stripe going along his shoulders to the ends of his sleeves. The jacket's collar is rather high and sky blue in coloration, as are the ends of the sleeves and the bottom hem of the jacket. There is a yellow crescent moon symbol prominently displayed on the left breast of the jacket, referencing Saïx's attribute in Organization XIII.

The jacket's collar is rather high and sky blue in coloration, as are the ends of the sleeves and the bottom hem of the jacket. There is a yellow waning crescent moon symbol prominently displayed on the left breast of the jacket, referencing Saïx's attribute in Organization XIII.


Isa appears to wear a black undershirt, as well as white pants and black shoes with what appears to be a grayish trim on the bottom. He seems to be about the same age as Lea and Ventus. Isa's sky blue hair resembles his Nobody's in style, but it is shorter; Isa's hair is slightly longer than jaw-length and is spiked upward. He lacks Saïx's X-shaped scar, and he has sea green eyes, rather than yellow ones. His ears do not appear to be pointed like Saïx's, but he does have pierced ears.

Upon his revival in Radiant Garden as an adult, Isa appears to be physically identical to Saïx and even wears the [[black coat]] of Organization XIII. After Xehanort's defeat, Isa is once again restored to his human form with his eyes and ears returned to their original state. He wears a long-sleeved, knee-length high-low black jacket with black pants. The jacket has a short front zipper on either side and a column of five buttons on a dark gray flap next to a long zipper down the middle. Isa's jacket, its sleeves, and his pants have gray camouflage patterning along the sides, though it is wider on the sides of the jacket. Like his attire in ''Birth by Sleep'', Isa's jacket has a high collar, a different colored stripe along the shoulders and down the length of the sleeves with a gold star and crescent moon medallion on the left breast, and he wears black shoes with the gray camouflage as the trim along the bottom.

In Secret Report 6, it's revealed that Isa is capable of compassion and selflessness as shown by his offering comfort to his and Lea's new mystery friend whenever they visited her, and his strong desire to save her from her imprisonment as Xehanort's lab rat. When she vanished, Isa's desire to find and save her is so strong that it remains in his adult years, even during his time as Saïx.
