Appearance

Three of the four were designed to echo the look of the classic generals. Kalunite mirrors Jadeite, Hematite corresponds to Zoisite, and Hiddenite parallels Nephrite. Kunzite stands apart as the exception, since he alone carries over directly from the earlier group rather than serving as a fresh counterpart.
