The spring has passed / And the summer come again; / For the silk-white robes, / So they say, are spread to dry / On the "Mount of Heaven's Perfume"Suou is the reigning karuta meijin and widely considered to have the sharpest intuition in the game right now. He's racked up 28 one-syllable cards—a staggering number that speaks to his dominance. What's wild is that he didn't even start playing until university, yet became Meijin within three years and has now held the title for four consecutive years straight. Everyone acknowledges he's basically unstoppable, though he's always hunting for someone stronger than himself.
He's the type of solitary genius who's perpetually hungry and hard to impress. It's his fourth time repeating a year at university, which somehow tracks with his whole vibe.
On the surface, Suou looks like any other tall university guy, but the reality is stranger—questionable beard, almost whisper-quiet voice, and an unexplained obsession with Japanese confectionery. He's a massive fan of Yamashiro Kyouko, a professional karuta reader, and once gave her sweets in exchange for a recording of her reciting the poems.
He's selective about tournaments because he only wants to fight genuinely strong opponents. His goal is to win his fifth consecutive Meijin title and then call it quits.
