Family

* Kisako (Mother)

Background

He was raised by his mother Kisako, a loudmouthed kunoichi of the Sand whose strength is primarily in taijutsu and spear usage. Kentsu struck up a friendship with Tetsuko when they were four, as Kisako was old friends with Nesuri, Tetsuko's father.

Appearance

Kentsu has thick salmon hair cut shorter on one side than the other. He is thickly set and heavier than his teammates; he tans easily. His eyes are dark brown, and he has long eyelashes and good teeth.

Personality

Kentsu's first lines in the story display a misogynistic viewpoint and his typical angry outlook. Through the first and second arc, he is extremely quick to resort to violence and anger in response to stressors. He doesn't consider others' feelings, Tetsuko's excluded, and defines himself in opposition to the people around him.

Similarly to his best friend, Kentsu has difficulties with identity.

He is still fairly oblivious toward others, but simmers down considerably due to guilt. He learns to work with rather than against his teammates, and becomes comfortable with Mokuren and Temari being part of his life.

Arc One: Team Temari

This arc starts up with a willful Kentsu that acts rashly, lashes out at friends, and doesn't appear to think seriously about anyone else. He seems to be the largest obstacle to teamwork, having decided to treat both teammates as rivals.

His abilities develop more under Temari's tutelage than the other two, and starts to show a knack for adapting during fights.

Arc Two: The Lost Mission

Will type soon.

Arc Three: The Chunin Exams

Arc Four: Pre-Tourney Fillers

Arc Five: The Great Tournament

As of yet, he has just been uncomfortable and glared at other competitors.

Trivia

*His nickname means smile, but is also a reference to his slight 'bishounen' look.

*His name was just something I thought sounded nice. It has literally never had a meaning, and is spelled only with katakana.

*Kentsu enjoys almost all foods equally. He is allergic to several kinds of nuts, including peanuts.

*His hobbies include comic drawing, card games, eating, thinking of the zombie apocalypse, and studying the Fourth Great Shinobi War.
