Each member of the team has its own story and distinctive features, they all wear costumes and masks, and do not call each other by their real names, but use pseudonyms.

2016 – Today
The Phantom Thieves of Hearts logo was designed by Shigenori Soejima, who obviously was the best candidate for this. So the badge he introduced in 2016 is a perfect representation of the passion and power of the team and their dedication.
The centerpiece of the red, black, and white emblem is a tall black hat with a curved brim, which magicians wear for their tricks. In a way, all members of Phantom Thieves of Hearts are also magicians.
At the bottom of a black cylinder hat, there is a red heart-shaped leaf shrouded in white flames. The two upper two segments are rounded and curved, looking like the horns of Satan.
As for the lettering, which is sometimes used along with the graphical emblem, it is executed in a bold custom sans-serif typeface with the letters jumping above the line. Three letters of the wordmark, “E”, “U” and “H”, are set on solid black squares and written in thin red lines.
The original colors refer to the classic scheme: red and black. It is a passionate fatal color scheme, which evokes a sense of high tension and emotionality.
