## Personality

Sho Minamimoto is someone that’s incredibly intelligent, displaying his sharp mind on an almost daily basis with his strange phrases related to mathematics, not being able to resist the pull to throw in math terminology to conversations, which most of the time leaves others confused. This intelligence is matched only by his arrogance, wanting to prove his strength and worth constantly, as well as parade about his viewpoints, such as building together heaps of junk that he calls “perfectly calculated art”, which may reflect his opinions that the world is garbage.

He can hardly ever bring himself to work with others, especially not for their benefit, with this arrogance returning to show his antisocial behaviour. He will only join with others when he sees sufficient gain in it for himself, however that doesn’t entirely stop him from helping out with their problems, since if he sees it as a rather minimal roadblock, then he’s fine with spending a bit of time solving it.

He has large goals, loving to control his surroundings and have his targets met. He has goals of reaching the top of the Reaper’s corporate ladder and being the one to control the entire Shibuya Reaper’s Game. He recognises the herculean nature of this task, and is more than willing to put the work in, showing how he can be a dreamer in terms of accomplishments but understands the realism of aiming for them.

## Backstory

Assumed to be a Player of the Reaper’s Game that won, Sho Minamimoto is one of the youngest Reapers in history and THE youngest Game Master at the age of 18, which led to him being the interest of a certain Angel that taught him how to refine Taboo Noise Summoning Sigils, but also kept him as a backup plan in case they weren’t able to stop a destructive plan to erase the entire city of Shibuya.

Eventually setting his eyes upon the role of Composer, he got involved in a very fateful Game that would not only result in his incredible boost in power, but also his downfall. He was the Game Master for the team of Neku Sakuraba and Yoshiya "Joshua" Kiryu, but there was previous history.

Sho had tried to kill the current Composer, believing that he would be weaker in the real world, but was not expecting to find him to still have some amount of strength. The two got into a gunfight where Sho got wounded, with a young boy being inbetween him and the Composer. The boy? Neku. And the Composer? Joshua.

After running an odd Game and achieving his transformation into a Taboo version of himself, he was taken out, presumably by Joshua.

And yet, he came back not long after, thanks to the efforts of Coco Atarashi, a cutesy Reaper that wanted him to be Neku's Partner in a future Game.

And yet he aligned with a group named the Wicked Twisters 3 years later, helping them at first but eventually abandoning them, claiming he had some "equations calling out for him". He met them again after absorbing some Dissonance Noise, being caused by one of the Wicked Twisters, and meeting Neku once again. He backed off, taking a backseat for now as he saw no need to fight The Wicked Twisters.

His last known appearance was at the end of the Wicked Twisters' journey, helping Shibuya by dispersing some Noise and proclaiming that he had regained his original strength and that he was going for the title of Composer once again, with Coco demanding that she be his master, seeing as she's the one that revived him.
