< EVERYBODY HAS TO LIVE A LIFE THAT THEY DIDN'T WANT, WHY? >

Origin: (slight mentions of abuse)
- Kenji has had it ROUGH for a majority of his life. He definitely is spiteful to his family for many reasons. For one, his mom and dad always fought. It was constant in his life, and it was always physical a majority of the time. Whether it be accusations of cheating, or just because, it was always so severe.
- One night went down that caused him to move in with his aunt, that being the fact his mom was killed by the dad. Kenji witnessed the entire thing go down when he was 8, the boy quoting it as horrid. 
- Kenji's aunt decided it'd be best that he lived with her while they figured the situation out. However, it wasn't even much better over there, and Kenji's aunt was known to get around with many boys. There was a new boy over almost every week or so.
- However, there was a boyfriend that stuck in her life for a particularly long time, this was Kenji's lowest point in life.
- He was known to be rather abusive to Kenji, mostly for next to no reason. He was mean, and very cruel to the boy.

- At school, things were slightly better. He was popular, but definitely the one that all of the boys would make jokes about. He was always bullied around by them on the sports teams he joined despite how amazing he was.
- Sports became his passion come middle school, and this man was a total exercise junkie. He'd be out late with his friends doing every sport in all honesty, and this lasted out a long time.
- In highschool, things got rough for him. He realized he likes boys, but it was difficult considering almost every girl threw themselves into him due to being well known in sports.
- He started failing school, and did sports outside of the school rather than in connection with it. He luckily managed to grab himself some scholarships, and eventually went to college. From there, he became a very famous gymnast. He's very well known for it.
- His step-uncle was eventually put in prison for aggravated assault on the boy when he was found out to have a boyfriend for the first time. Which also took a toll on his mental health.

< WHY CANT YOU BE GOOD FOR SOMETHING ? >

- Usagi - They're simply mutual friends
- Kuina - He loves how genuine this girl is !!

Enemies:
- Niragi - Niragi tried to manipulate him in the very start. Shockingly, Kenji is apart of the militia, he just ranks very low due to his fear of hurting people. He hates Niragi, and how that guy always torments him for his empathy.

Love interest: Kazuaki shouta
- He found this boy to be so incredibly admirable. He loves how smart and kind he is, even if it's a lie. He feels like this is almost the first guy to actually defend and care about him in the beach.

< HAVENT I GIVEN ENOUGH ? >

Trivia:
- Kenji has a severe fear of harming others. He hates betraying people with all of his heart.
- His first game was actually a 8 of hearts. Let's just say this traumatized him beyond belief, as he was the only survivor. It was a game of judgement, a whole why should you live over everyone in that room. Then you had to vote. He watched everyone die in front of his eyes.
- He always has the bare minimum visa days. He forgets, and he doesn't really care much.
- Kenji still loves doing gymnastics. Some people find it funny, as he's always doing his practices around the beach.
- Niragi forced him to shoot one person when he got there, and this boy was absolutely mortified of holding a gun. He refuses to now.
