Additional Information

General
TURNING PROFESSIONAL
While studying at Ritsumeikan University in Kyoto, Japan, he decided to take a break from his studies and move to Tokyo, Japan, in order to improve in Street Fighter. He ultimately quit university and became a professional gamer. "For me, the first step to becoming a professional and winning tournaments was to live in Tokyo. Competing against those who were better than me was a shortcut to improving my level. At the time all the professional players played face-to-face instead of online, so I made the decision to go to Tokyo." (esports-world, 30 Dec 2022; famitsu, 28 Jun 2019)
