### Early life

His father, a veteran chess master taught him from a young age how to play, becoming an adept at the age of 12 and participating in various competitions, winning almost every single one. At the age of 15, he participated in the World Chess Championship , winning the 2002 FIDE chamption Ruslan Ponomariov, and becoming a chess grandmaster. This caught the attention of the Academy, which sended Koichi Kazikura to recruit him the Academy. Young Hideyoshi was sceptical at first, but was convinced to join by his family.

### Prior to the Tragedy

He, along wioth Toshinori combined their tactical thought in an effort to save the classroom from the mad students. He, along with the rest of the class went into hiding till the mututal killing game ended.

### Post Tragedy

Hideyoshi was originally going to head for his home to reunite with his family, when one day he noticed an envelope next to his sleeping bag that he used in the shelter that he and the rest of class 67 were hiding. Inside of it was a picture with his father and mother, having been hanged from the maple in their garden. Hideyoshi freaked out but was calmed down by Zuko Midorya, the Ultimate Movie Director, who told him that whoever sended this envelope, wanted to cause despair to them. Hideyoshi though rationally about it, and soon enough got two objectives in his mind: Combat the Despairs and find his little brother, who he pressumed missing as he wasnt seen in the photo. He wished to see a betetr future, thus he along with Kazuko and Toshinori formed the Counter Monobeast Regiment, a militia tasked with destroying the Warriors of Hope and saving the despair brainwashed students.

Hideyoshi is a relaitvely tall man, standing at 5'9 (175cm). He is skinny with messy white hair, due to his albinism, that he dyes pink. Both of his eyes were once hazel, but now only the right one remains, as the left one became white after losing it by being injured by a beast monokuma. He wears split black/white sweatpants with a black Bishop on the white sides pocket and a white Rook on the black sides pocket. He wears a blakc and white checkered cotton t-shirt and a black zip-up hoodie with Hope's Peak's logo on the back. Around his neck, he wears his father dogtags from the war.

## Trivia

* He has a weird obsession with checkers, constantly wearing the black and white checkered t-shirt, to the point that he has 7 identical t-shirts reserve, should one of them get dirty.
* He was originally goign to be called the Ultimate Chess Master, but after constant thinking we (me and the other Joyful Massacre author, DafurryQueen) thought that to be an Ultimate, you would need to be top of the top, thus I gave him the biggest rank withtin the chess community, the Grandmaster title.
