Tsuwabuki is an upperclassman kunoichi in the all-female Akane Class village, serving within the Monkey Squad. Her name, adhering to the village's floral theme, references the leopard plant.

She possesses fair skin, brown eyes, and blonde hair typically worn in two ponytails. Her outfit features a red kimono top left open to reveal a black fishnet top beneath, exposing her midriff. She pairs this with gray shorts tied at the waist and knee-length underpants, consistently appearing barefoot.

Her personality is rough and coarse, with a pronounced tendency to resolve conflicts or challenges through physical force. This aggressive approach is particularly evident in her interactions with her youngest teammate, Hōsenka, whom she frequently chases or confronts. As part of Team Monkey, she operates alongside Mokuren and Hōsenka, participating in group activities and missions typical of the squad-based structure.
