Mitsunari comes across as sharp-tongued and unsentimental, the kind of guy who won't soften the truth for anyone's sake. Some call him the "Fox of Mt. Sawa"—a nickname that captures both his cunning and his reputation for cutting people down. He's genuinely indifferent to people who don't capture his interest, quick with an insult, but takes his responsibilities seriously and knows how to think his way through a problem. His passion doesn't always show on the surface, but don't mistake that for a lack of conviction. Righteousness and loyalty matter to him above almost everything else, and his loyalty to Hideyoshi and the Toyotomi family runs deep. Cowardice is simply beneath him, even when it might actually make practical sense.
The flip side is that his bluntness and selective empathy can backfire hard. He'll stand by his principles even when it costs him allies, sometimes without fully grasping why people are leaving or what he did wrong. There's a kind of blindness there—his righteousness can look hypocritical or tone-deaf when you're on the wrong side of it. Still, the people who stick around find someone genuinely committed to protecting and valuing them.
