## Early Life

Arata comes from a poor family. However, he had a loving home, so his financial situation wasn't something terrifying for him. His financial situation made him rather a loner. He didn't have almost any friends. People treated him like a freak. He had two friends: his brother and Io. He is very close with his brother. But Arata never understood why Io wanted to be his friend. She was from a wealthy family, she surrounded herself with beautiful things. She could have better friends, but for some reason she liked him. She made him interested in wrestling. As a kid he sneaked in, to watch a group which was training every Friday and Saturday. He knew what he wanted to do in his life. Since then, he has begun doing everything to live his dreams. Despite his success, he likes to come back home . Despite wearing elegant suits and expensive watches, he still remembers the place he comes from. This is the same boy, just better dressed and having purpose in life.
