==Biography==
===Early Life===
Due to being the son of a high ranking Arasaka executive, Katsuo was able to attend the expensive Arasaka Academy, where he would eventually meet David Martinez.
===Cyberpunk: Edgerunners===
During one day at school, David's outdated braindance wreath spiked the rest of his class due to a faulty software update, angering Katsuo.
The next morning, Tanaka and his friends ambushed David. They took him to a back-alley in Memorial Park, where Tanaka verbally antagonized him, and then beat him up with a martial arts chipware. Later that day, Katsuo called David and mocked him about his mother's death.
Katsuo's bullying would be the inspiration for David Martinez to implant himself with the black market Sandevistan he had found among his mother's belongings.
The next day, David went to Arasaka Academy and beat up Katsuo using his recently installed Sandevistan. Due to David's high compatibility with it, Katsuo's father tried to make David to go back to the Academy so that they could use him as a test subject for cyberware. The plan was to offer him free scholarship, however David refused their offer. David worked on the assumption that Katsuo was out for revenge, rejecting all of Arasaka's Academy's offers for reinstatement on the assumption that they were part of a revenge plot by Katsuo.
