Mask - A white mask is worn over the entire face all Anbu members for disguise as well as identification as Anbu members. No two masks are alike, but they are commonly animal shaped with different shapes and patterns drawn on them and two narrow eye holes. It is also common for the symbol of the Anbu member’s village to be carved on the mask’s forehead in lieu of a Forehead protector.

Tattoo - This is a small black pattern worn on the left bicep of all Anbu members as proof of their membership in the Anbu.

Katana - A long sword worn strapped across the back that serves as the primary weapon of for most Anbu Ninja.

Hand Guard - A simple metal plate attached to the Shinobi’s gloves, very useful for blocking and deflecting attacks.

Arm Guard - A larger metal plate worn along the arm(s) of Anbu members for defense.

 

Cloak and Hat -  This is the standard dress of all Akatsuki members, a black coat covered with red clouds that goes down to the wearer’s knees and a straw hat with long white threads hanging from the edges to help hide the wearers face.

Forehead Protector - Each Akatsuki member still wears the forehead protector of their old village except they cut a long horizontal scratch through the village symbol.

Rings - Each member of the Akatsuki wears a ring with a different kanji symbol on it. Each is a symbol of one of the nine mythical beasts of Japanese mythology or the four Kyoto gods. It is thought that a member’s particular kanji also represents some type of codename. There are 10 rings in all and if an Akatsuki member dies his/her ring is recovered and given to whoever takes his/her place. Each member also wears his or her ring on a different finger than any of the other members. Thus far we only know the symbols from 7 of the 10 rings:.
- Itachi Uchiha = Shu – “Scarlet/Bloody,” worn on his right ring finger
- Kisame Hoshigaki = Nan – “South,” worn on his left ring finger
- Sasori of the Red Sand = Gyoku – “Jewel/Ball,” worn on his left thumb
- Deidara = Sei – “Blue/Green,” worn on his/her right index finger
- Zetsu = Gen – “Mysteriousness” or Kai – “Boar” worn on his right pinky finger (note: Both of the above symbols are very similar looking, so there might be an error in the translation/drawing of this symbol. The official character list says it should be Gen, but many experts and translators alike say the symbol really is Kai)
- Orochimaru = Kū – “Sky” formerly worn on his left pinky finger (even though he’s not an Akatsuki member anymore, he took his ring with him upon leaving and thus it has not been passed on to anyone else)
- Akatsuki Leader (name unknown) = Rei – “Zero/nothing/overflow” worn on his right thumb.
