Appearance

Personality
He has been described as arrogant, presumptuous, and active. A prime example of his arrogance was his extreme underestimation of Gaara's skills, believing that Gaara was no match for his technique.

Abilities
According to Akamaru's reaction, he had a very strong chakra. He could use his umbrellas to shoot senbon from above to kill his enemy. The senbon are controlled by Shigure's chakra, leaving no place to escape the technique. He also seems to be confident in close-range combat, as he rushed towards Gaara in a final attempt to bring him down. He was also able shoot a few senbon at a time towards his opponent.

Chūnin Exam Arc
Shigure and his team had the misfortune of confronting the Sand Siblings during the second phase of the Chūnin Exams. Shigure sought Gaara's scroll and underestimated his power. Shigure attempted to use his Senbon Shower technique but Gaara's sand protected him. Gaara then took the opportunity to confine Shigure and his team using the Sand Binding Coffin. Gaara then crushed the Rain Genin, killing them.
