The youngest of Tenjou Tenge, he's driven by a fierce competitive streak and a genuine ambition to make the unit the biggest thing around. He's known for being refreshingly direct—he'll tell you exactly what he thinks is good or bad without sugarcoating it.
His personality's got an interesting contradiction: he's usually upbeat, but when sadness hits, he tends to sit with it for a while. He actually prefers being alone when he's down, though the loneliness gets to him fast enough that he bounces back pretty quickly.
His dynamic with Aoi Kakitsubata is complicated—they clash frequently, but there's genuine respect there. Both recognize they're talented, even if they rub each other the wrong way.
Surprisingly mature for his age, his personal tastes lean toward the understated. He's genuinely into Buddhist temples and Shinto shrines, which fans often note as an unexpectedly sophisticated interest for someone so young and energetic.
