Personality: Formerly a happy-go-lucky child-like kid, Kenji has changed dramatically over the course of a few months. From happy and ambitious to going on the brink of insanity is the road that the former Konoha ANBU member has taken recently. After the loss of his wife and the separation of his children, Kenji has become increasingly unstable since and at this point in time, doesn't know too much about himself.

In his rather "calm" state, Kenji holds a sort of monotone expression and tone, tending to keep his words rather short and sweet instead of talking too much. He also doesn't like expressing his thoughts through words but rather action, which usually ends in destruction of some sort in his case, for "a picture speaks a thousand words" in his opinion.

In his unstable manner, Kenji has become increasingly dangerous also during his personality change and would not hesitate to kill or destroy things that he views need to be destroyed. Kenji also seem to make a habit out of his destruction and tends to not only do it when it needs to be done, but if it's just within his heart to do so.

Of course, this isn't the real Kenji's way of lifestyle, more of the of his foreignly obtained bloodline, which has become increasingly absorbent of Kenji's life and body, wishing to take it over in order to have its own lifestyle.

History: Kenji doesn’t know too much about his past because he was adopted at birth by Reiji Akira, he doesn’t know who his father is and all he knows about his mother was that her name is Satsuki Kanoshi, which is why he has two last names, and that she died shortly after giving him birth. Even though Kanoshi is his true family name, he always introduces himself to most people as “Kenji Akira” because he would always be made fun of by other clan members.

His adopted father refuses to speak more than two words a day to Kenji (and those two words were only on a good day Kenji spent most of his life self teaching himself the Akira style Kenjutsu. A lot of members tease him a lot by calling him “a fake Akira” which would always anger him, causing fights that he would normally lose due to being outnumbered.

At the age of 8, Kenji was to join the Konoha Ninja Academy (Akira clan tradition). Even though he was bullied at a young age, Kenji still tried to be social, which didn’t usually work. His grades were average, which confused his teachers because he seemed to have the most potential out of the whole academy. Still, he graduated with high credentials, hoping to impress his adopted father, which he didn't as of yet.

Kenji spent the next two years after his graduation from the Ninja Academy doing petty solo D rank mission until he was assigned to a team as a replacement ninja. Kenji was actually somewhat excited about meeting his new team but was still somewhat skeptical about being told that he was to travel in a portal to Kirigakure to not only meet this Team Ikkaku, but to also receive a special gift upon his arrival. Nevertheless Kenji agreed to this and was quickly teleported to Kiri via portal. Upon arrival, the first thing Kenji noticed were that they’re was nothing but two extremely hot girls in this apparent barren wasteland so he decided to introduce himself with the ole Kenji charm.

Upon request for his identity, Kenji quickly told them of his dreams and future, only to get himself slapped by one of the girls named “Katsumi Ryota.” And to gain knowledge that they were of Team Ikkaku. Unable to figure out why she had slapped him for the time being, Kenji assumed that the mute was just crazy. Soon afterwards, he was introduced to and by Ikkaku Madarame and soon knocked out, awakening soon after with blindness. After being taken back to Konoha, Kenji was taken to spend a while staying at Ikkaku’s house, where he was informed of his new Doujutsu Kekkei Genkai, the new unique abilities of his teammates, and the dangers of having the eyes that he had.

Soon after, he escaped Ikkaku’s house and went on his own, even though he was legally blind. Soon, he bumped into Katsumi and at this point, he started developing feelings for her after they had their first kiss which he was quick to explain, but the destruction of their village at the hands of the “former Raikage” put those feelings on hold as the team had to flee. Upon reaching the Ryota Estates many things started happening, Konoha Koga, his other teammate, caught up with them, their new sensei, Zutto showed up, Kenji found out that Katsumi returned his feelings, and their team started to quickly expand.

The team was then transported to Kusa where things didn’t go that much better. Not only did Kenji gain a somewhat insecurity around Katsumi, but Kusa was in a constant uproar as many people came at them to investigate and they were even payed a visit by the old Hokage in disguise. Feeling even more stress combine and come crashing down on her, Katsumi has a breakdown. Upon seeing this Kenji was quick to help her relax by staying a night in an overly expensive hotel. Feeling more relaxed than ever with this, Katsumi more willing to take the next step in their relationship and they both stayed with each other that night.

Soon, they all went back to Konoha and was met with a barren wasteland filled with the few who survived and the many that didn’t. A few members of Kenji’s clan had died also, but fortunately, the majority of the clan were scattered out into different villages that day for a reason still unknown to Kenji. Unfortunately for Katsumi, she had lost her mother in the disaster and, even as he tried to comfort her in the best of his abilities, Katsumi still apart to be in pain. As things continued to get worse, Kenji met with Izual Uchiha that day who disguised himself as Zutto in order to kidnap him and gain control of his eyes. His plan failed though as a new treat came from the village, a treat that threatened our very existence.

However, Kenji, his team, and other villagers managed to escape while other shinobi fought this power. Upon their escape, Katsumi was still within mental chaos as Kenji continued to attempt to comfort her, which actually seemed to have been working at this time. Pretty soon after that, Kenji met Katsumi’s father and with his approval, Kenji felt a lot more confident to be with her. But once her father left, Kenji left her for not too long, he went to see her curled up in tears. Feeling the sadness radiating from her, Kenji stayed with Katsumi that entire night, not leaving her side for a second.

Ever since, they returned to Konoha and began to aid in rebuilding the once great village. Katsumi played a good part in this, commanding a good amount of survivors, including Kenji himself and leading them so that things ran smoothly. Meanwhile, the bond between Katsumi and Kenji strengthened. Due to helping out so much with the village and passing certain tests, their entire team soon made it to the rank of Chunnin. Prior to his promotion, Kenji would continue to do mission, some teamed and some solo, and start to complete his Rasengan Training that he had been procrastinating. During these times, Kenji noticed that Katsumi was getting a little too busy for together time, but he didn’t let it affect him too mush. In fact, one day, he decided to just substitute one of her classes. Though it went horribly wrong, Kenji enjoyed it anyways.

Two years passing, the hidden village was in good shape. Katsumi was upgraded to Jonnin and Kenji… Well, Kenji was still a Chunnin, due to the fact that he refused to give any sort of effort into ranking up. .Though Katsumi questioned this, Kenji remained laid back and accepted his rank for the sheer fact that it gave him less work to think about. During those two years, Kenji was finally able to complete master Rasengan and add some unique variety to it. To his disappointed, Katsumi then told him that she was leaving Konoha, not forever but for a small time to have a meeting with her clan, Kenji accepted that though and wished her good luck.


While she was gone, Kenji spent the entire time using the opportunity of her absence to train his new Kekkei Genkai, The Ankoku Manako. Throughout the months that Katsumi was away, Kenji studied and trained this Bloodline to the core of existence. And yes, I did say study, emphasizing exactly how much Kenji was willing to learn by working with his worst enemy, books. Over the time of Katsumi’s departure, Kenji was about to reach up to mastery of the second form of it, which was pretty well on Kenji’s part. During her absence, he also was in deep training of his Akira style Kenjutsu, something that he was feeling that he was getting rusty on. There was also a rumor going around that Katsumi Ryota was the new executive leader of the Ryota clan. That information alone brought a smile to Kenji’s face and it caused him to train even harder.

After the months of training Kenji had endured, Katsumi finally came back to Konoha, much to Kenji’s surprise and relief. During their welcome home date that Kenji arranged at the last minute, Katsumi questioned his Kekkei Genkai. Not being able to let her know of such things about him, Kenji told her not to worry about it. Though he trusted Katsumi with his life and he loved her to a never ending degree, he wasn’t exactly sure how she would react to that information. She also questioned his rank at his level, but she soon let that rest, though she still wondered every now and then but that was quite alright.

Later in life, Kenji would finally build up the nerve to do something that he wanted to do for a long time. During a date at a very expensive restaurant, Kenji took it upon himself to propose to Katsumi. Though he was a nervous wreck at the time, to his surprise, Katsumi accepted his proposal. For the next few months, they would continue to spend all the time they could together, though it was mostly planning on the wedding, which Kenji despised doing, but he was forced into it anyways.

Soon, the day had appeared for their marriage day. Both participants were at the level of nervousness where they almost called it off, but thanks to the support of friends and family, they were able to pull through and later officially husband and wife. After he kissed the bride, Kenji went on his honeymoon with his newly wed wife. Soon afterwards, it was noted that Katsumi was pregnant. At this point, the nervousness appeared on both of them once again as they question their ability to raise a child as newly wed. But again, they felt the support from their friends and family and their bond became even stronger and they were then prepared for this baby.

At the time of birth, they had a boy that Katsumi named Satoshi Akira. Since birth, anyone could tell that, personality wise, Satoshi was much like Katsumi due to the fact that he wasn’t the crying type of baby. They even wondered if he was also mute like Katsumi was until he finally cried a couple of times about a month after his birth. They continued to do their usual routines, except Katsumi would stay with the baby for the first few months until she was off maternity leave and Kenji would always spend more time with his new family.

This continued for three years until they had another child. Since Katsumi named their last child, it was Kenji’s turned so he named her Ayame Akira. Ayame was a lot like Kenji, at least in Katsumi’s eyes as well as others, because of her constant crying and clinginess to her parents. Now with another child, the married couple continued to grow their bond with their entire family. It really seems that everything would be going fairly well for them, almost like a fairytale ending.

However, fairytale endings are the least likely thing to happen in the Shinobi World, especially for two shinobi. One day Katsumi go a call from her clan saying that her father had been captured in a mission. Taking it into her own hands, she said goodbye to Kenji and told him to stay here with the children before she made her way to get her father in Bird Country. Understanding Katsumi’s reasons, Kenji wished her luck and made her promise that she would come back while he stayed in Konoha with their two children, Satoshi and Ayame.

Soon after, Katsumi’s father made his way over to Konoha while incredibly injured. Kenji offered to take him to the hospital, but he said it was too late for him. With his final breath, Kenji’s father in law informed him that Katsumi’s been captured. Driven by this Kenji immediately requested that he go after her, but due to him only being a Chuunin, the higher ups told him that it would be more of a mission for an Anbu or a Jounin at least.

Angered by this, Kenji’s eyes turned black as his Ankoku Manako reached its final form. Fueled by the darkness of it and his lack of control, Kenji attacked the advisers, but was quickly stopped by a team of eight Anbu, before he killed them all, Kenji’s eyes returned back to normal and he was taken to a Prison facility, but was let out after an hour due to his father’s status in the village and the fact that he was now a single father for two children. Kenji still offered to go on his own, but his father informed him that he was on the team of Anbu that would be looking for her and he vowed to find her for she was his daughter in law.

Feeling comfort from the words of the Akira clan leader, Kenji agreed to those terms. About a day afterwards he was informed that since it was his wife, he would get to pick the team of Anbu and Jounin to search for her. This brought Kenji even more comfort that at least he could send the people he trust. The team consisted of a team of three Anbu ninja, his 13-year-old cousin Yachiru Akira, his uncle, Kenpachi Akira and his father, Keiji Akira. Once it was time for their S rank mission, the members of the Akira clan reassured him that they would retrieve Katsumi and they set off to find her while Kenji stayed in Konoha with Satoshi and Ayame.

Several weeks later, Kenji would get word from his father that the new Hokage eidhrf to see him. Kenji was confused by this but went with his children to see that the new Hokage was the newly returned Katsumi. After a short reunion, Kenji would then be informed but a day later that he was going to have to fight another shinobi for the rank of Jounin, though he never wished for the fight or even to rank up.

Nevertheless, Kenji was pit in a battle against a shinobi who she constantly called "Hyuuga". Though Kenji tried to put on a good match, he couldn't completely keep his head in the battle due to too many internal conflicts and it ultimately cost him. After what seemed to be a tight situation, Kenji lost all control over himself and everything went completely black for him after that. All he remembered was a voice in his head constantly saying "Kill".

He surprisingly made a speedy recovery for his said to be 2-3 week coma turned into 2 days as he woke up soon after to not only be greeted by his family, but to be informed by Tenchi, a proctor for the battle, that he was now of the Jounin rank. He forcibly spent a few more hours in bed before he was allowed to check out, immediately ready to gain control of himself a bit more.

Ever since, Kenji has met up with Katsumi and realized that he needed to protect her by at least keeping up with her so he asked to be promoted to ANBU black ops as her personal guard and join the majority of his family. He has spent 3 consecutive days training with his ANBU Captain in order to gain better control of himself and get stronger, during which he made a personal goal that he has kept hidden from anyone and everyone around him.

Pretty much after that, things started going downhill for Kenji. Though he's been pretty oblivious about it for a while, Kenji's wife actually started acted quite strange recently to the point where he started questioning her sanity in a way but didn't bother questioning it too much and went on with other things such as training and things of that sort.

It was then recently noted to him that Katsumi was pregnant with yet another child but Kenji didn't know about it. I know what you're thinking at this point on "You idiot, how can you not notice a big belly like that?" Well, Katsumi didn't have a giant stomach and was surprisingly the weight last Kenji checked a month prior to the delivery.

Though the child was his, Kenji never did see him at all, but instead got the news that his wife had died just recently after and that a new Hokage was to be appointed immediately. Kenji couldn't believe that the Konoha government was going to basically ignore his wife's death like that just get a new Hokage like she was just some broken toy.

Furious by this, Kenji picked up his kid and left Konoha in order to hold his very own funeral and decided to drop Ayame off at Kumogakure in order to gain a better life with hopefully a better government, which had saved his life once. After dropping her off, Kenji set out on his own journey. One where, little by little, his sanity was pulling away from him. Over the first few weeks, Kenji came across an old man, this old man just happened to be a former ANBU himself though without Kenji's knowledge. Seeing it as a way to help Kenji, the old man seal away a bit of his memories, making him forget a good majority of things in his life, including his former family, his former life, even a few of his own jutsu in order to keep Kenji from his misery and insanity.

After a bit of going on various and spontaneous rampages little by little, Kenji seemed to have sparked the interest of a certain organization with his abilities and reputation, the same organization that was after him a few years ago in the Akatsuki. He was one day given a call to meet somewhere in order to see this organization for himself in order to become a possible new member.
