Description[]
As a toddler, he is very timid and shy. He is quite fearful of the outside world and is usually seen hiding inside or behind his sister. His personality is the polar opposite of his older sister Yuki's personality. He is introverted, sweet, and somewhat cowardly. He seems to have a very difficult time connecting with humans and is seen being bullied as a 7 year old.
As a tween, his view of the outside world notably changes. While still being rather shy, he is now more bold, outgoing, and wild, and now embraces his wolf side. He is now even more wild and distant from humans, and only seems to wish to be with nature and the animals. This may be due to being taught by Sensei, and elderly fox, whom he later takes over as caretaker for the mountain.
