Description

Personality

Akashi's personality is complex, characterized by a duality. His original personality is respectful, valuing teamwork and appreciating his fans. However, a second, more ruthless personality emerged due to immense pressure and the loss of his mother. This alternate personality is domineering, intolerant of failure, and views victory as absolute. The two personalities are aware of each other and can even converse, with the original personality eventually regaining dominance and becoming more approachable after experiencing his first defeat. Key moments include his split personality's emergence and his eventual reconciliation with his original self, leading to a more balanced and mature approach to the game and life.
