He respects his upperclassmen, especially Ushijima. Tends to bicker with first-year wing spiker Goshiki as constantly seeks attention/tries to hold himself to a higher level than he actually is. Though he appears serious & composed, he's very hot-headed & gets annoyed at many counter methods his opponents use. He quickly realizes his mistake & corrects himself. Very studious & hardworking, had excellent grades but became even more dedicated to his studies when he decided to attend Shiratorizawa.
