**Hyo Kentaro** is a competitor on Total Drama Winter Games as a member of Team Ig Lun.

## Appearance

**Total Drama Winter Games:** Hyo is a short-statured, scrawny boy who tends to have poor posture. He has messy, short, light brown hair that's longer in the back, almost like a mullet. His ears are heavily pierced, and he has two bandages on his face— one over his left eyebrow and one on the right side of his face under his chin. He has unusually sharp teeth and completely bandaged hands and neck. He is usually seen wearing a light gray hoodie and dark blue, torn up jeans. He also sports a silver necklace with a moon pendant.

**Total Drama Asuka Valley:** In between seasons, not too much has changed about Hyo. His hair is noticeably a tad longer, and he now regularly wears the vibrant pink flannel jacket given to him by Amancio in Winter Games. Beneath the jacket, he sports a black t-shirt and the same silver crescent moon pendant from before. Instead of pale blue jeans, he also now wears dark gray trousers (still with a few rips and tears around the knees.)

## Personality

Hyo is unusually kind, even to people he does not know. It almost seems like he's trying too hard to be a good person. He's awkward and socially inept, prone to saying the wrongs things or clumsily blurting out something strange. However, deep down he *is* a good guy, and just wants to see everyone get alone. Though, he can tend to be a bit naive at times. He sometimes puts misguided faith in others, which has led him into problems before. He's quick to trust others and slow to doubt them.

As nice as he is to others, he frequently talks bad about himself and scolds himself for every mistake, believing he is a total klutz (which may or may not be true.)

Hyo has a habit of underestimating his own strength, which has led him to hurt himself and others many times by accident. This has made his frequently paranoid of causing harm to others, and he tends to distance himself for that very reason. Kind as he may be, Hyo certainly has a limit.

When he's overwhelmed or frustrated, Hyo sometimes snaps and lashes out. He also can be quite stubborn at times and seems to have an unwavering determination when he sets his mind to something. Overall, he's normally a soft-spoken outcast that often winds up in all sorts of trouble.

## Total Drama Winter Games

**Let the Games Begin!:** As the show kicks off, Hyo is wary of the rest of the cast: particularly Roxas and Blake. The challenge begins and he finds himself struggling already. Roxas knocks into Hyo and causes him to trip and hit his head, thus eliminating him.

He's rendered dazed for the remainder of the episode. In the end, however, Hyo is picked by team captain William and ends up on Team Ig Lun.

**Oh Snow!:** The episode begins with most of the contestants outside, inlcuding Hyo. He's hit in the face with a snowball by Kirk, to which Loganchecks to see if he's alright. Soon afterwards, the challenge begins.

Hyo spends the majority of the challenge hiding behind a rock and making snowballs with Vincent. However, near the challenge's midpoint, he leaves the defensive point in pursuit of the other team. He's swiftly stopped by a fox snare placed by Blake. Hyo is then eliminated.

He's able to unearth the snare's stake, which frees him from entrapment. The snare however stays around his ankle for the remainder of the episode. During the elimination ceremony Hyo gains immunity, and watches sadly as Finn is sent home.

**Greenlandic Idol:** Hyo waits outside on the ice along with everyone else. Upon witnessing Olivia injure herself, he recives a first aid kit and attempts to help her. However, after watching medics arrive to take care of her, he instead gives the first aid kit to Milk who had also been injured on the ice.

The talent show begins, and Hyo is up second. He tries to preform a card trick but ends up slipping and falling. He lands doing the splits and injures himself, receiving a total score of 16 before leaving the stage.

Vincent assaults Milk and is promptly eliminated. Hyo is upset by the brutal show, yet can't help but feel slightly sorry for Vincent seeing as he's in apparently dire need for money. He wishes the former teammate good luck and says goodbye.

**Going for the D'oh:** The episode begins with everyone watching a movie inside. Clueless as ever, Hyo attempts to follow along. However soon everyone is summoned outside for a challenge.

After hearing the plan for an homage to the Olympics, Hyo appears a bit uncertain. He's assigned to compete in the bobsleigh challenge along with Amancio. The two share a positive moment, which soon leads to Amancio and Hyo cheering on all of Team Ig Lun.

The challenge begins, with William up first. After falling victim to one of Blake's traps, Hyo is infuriated at the opposing team. He helps William off the ground and to the medic.

The second challenge is Hyo and Amancio's, competing against Logan and Lucy. The two crash the bobsleigh of theor own volition, and Team Ig Lun takes the medal.

During challenge three, Olivia takes the win for Team Pionnsman. With another elimination ahead of them, Hyo still attempts to stay positive and kind.

Isabel ends up going home, much to the rest of her team's dismay. Hyo and Amancio wish her a tearful farewell, and Team Ig Lun is down one more member.

Following the ellimination ceremony, Blake joins Team Ig Lun. Every contestant seems to have a different reaction, but Hyo remains wary of his new teammate.

**A Holiday in Hell's Kitchen:** As the episode begins, Hyo is offkilter following his entrapment of the hare in the bear trap. He doesn't converse with the others much, except in an attempt to settle things down as William begins arguing with Blake. The challenge begins soon after.

Amancio works on the appetizer, Blake on the main course, and William on the dessert. Hyo helps out in the kitchen with gathering materials and setting up the plates.

However, as the challenge proceeds, he's still haunted by his gruesome actions. Especially so when Blake decides to cook and serve the very rabbit he had caught prior.

The challenge proceeds, and Team Pionsmann ends up winning by just a few points. Team Ig Lun sadly prepares for their fourth elimination in a row.

The team ends up voting out William, and Amancio and Hyo wish him a kind farewell. Following the elimination, Blake promises their prosperity shall increase soon.

**Getting Wild in the Winter:** The episode begins with the contestants watching a scary movie. Hyo, however, is noticeably distant. He isn't given much time to brood as the challenge kicks off shortly: both teams must survive as long as they can in the wilderness.

Team Ig Lun heads off into the woods. Blake hands out supplies to his other two team members, and assigns Hyo on hunting duty. He returns shortly with two hares and an eagle.

Blake starts the fire and explains his plan to the others: leaving a deer-musk-covered taxidermy bust near Team Pionnsman's camp in order to lure wild animals their way. Through some brief hesitation from Hyo and Amancio, they eventually agree and Blake is on his way.

The two are left alone by the fire. Amancio and Hyo share a heartfelt talk, leading to Amancio breaking down and crying in Hyo's arms. The two embrace, and Hyo convinces his teammate he's done nothing wrong. An emotion scene follows, where the two proclaim their unbreakable friendship and  readiness to move forward. Amancio seems to be in better spirits.

Blake returns soon after, announcing the success of their plan. Team Ig Lun feasts on Hyo's catches as the opposing team faces elimination for the first time.

**Who Killed Kirk:** The episode begins with all the contestants being invited to a party in the hosts' cabin. Hyo prepares to attend along with everyone else, putting on what nice clothes he has before heading out.

He arrives arm-in-arm with the rest of Team Ig Lun, and appears noticeably nervous at the sight of all the attendants. Though, the parry seems to be progressing as usual.

That is, however, until a supposed "murder mystery" plot begins to unfurl before the contestants. Hyo is sceptical of it being some sort of prank, yet decides to go along with it for now. Blake, Amancio, and him search for clues in the kitchen.

Their efforts are seemingly amounting to null, when Amancio hears a sound in the other room and disappears. Hyo has a brief confrontation with Blake before he heads after his teammate.

Amancio is gone, and all that remains is a rubber dummy of Colt. Hyo is briefly thrown into a panic, yet manages to keep his head on his shoulders as he searches for clues. He stumbles upon a "prop" revolver, which is actually real, unbeknownst to him.

The killer, cloaked in black, then rushes Hyo and he fires the gun. The bullet merely grazes the attacker, who then reveals himself as Milk. The challenge is called off, and Team Ig Lun declared the winner.

In a fit of panic over his actions, Hyo runs off into the woods.

**Colty the Snowman:** As the episode begins, Hyo is noticeably distant in his behavior. He neglects eating any of the breakfast provided until Roxas encourages him to. The two share a brief yet heart-warming moment until Blake makes an appearance.

The challenge of the day is snowman building. At a loss for ideas, Hyo begins with the basics for his snow creation while heavily studying the others'. He takes note of Roxas's snow sculpture, remarking how stunning it looks.

Hyo soon finishes his creation a bit early— a simple, upside down snowman (the silly). However, just as he steps back to admire his work, he spots Roxas tearing down her sculpture, with Amancio attempting to calm her down. Hyo hurries over to join them. Colt ushers Roxas off, leaving Hyo and Amancio behind.

The judging soon commences. Hyo's snowman receives a 10 from Colt and a 7 from Kirk, amounting to a total of 17 points. However, with half a point more, Amancio is the one to snag victory.

The elimination ceremony commenced with Hyo congratulating Amancio on his win. However, the tension in the air is evident. The reading of the votes begins shortly. Confessionals are shown, betraying each contestant's vote. Hyo is seen reluctanting voting Logan. Two votes are placed for Hyo— Dorian's and Logan's. However, with three votes overall, Logan is the one going home.

**Walking in a Winter Fun-derland:** The episode opens with the final five discussing whether or not Pluto should be a planet. After this lighthearted discussion wraps up, the group is lured outside by the sound of circus music. Hyo exercises caution as he heads outside.

This is where the concept of today's challenge is introduced— the funhouse. Colt and Kirk escort the contestants into the transformed hosts cabin and the fun begins.

First is the house of mirrors. Perturbation is shared amongst the group, and in particular Hyo is having trouble navigating the warped maze. The sound of the others beginning to smash the mirrors frightens him enough to bump into one, and Hyo crashes through one of the mirrors. This sends him into a fit of panic as memories of injuring his brother back home resurface.

Nevertheless, he continues on to the next room. This one is enshrouded in darkness and littered with a myriad of bloodied hooks hanging from the ceiling. Hyo bumbles about through the darkness and barely misses being nicked by the hooks. He briefly manages to run into Roxas and Dorian, as well as share a touching moment of comfort with Amancio. That is, until a mechanical clown decoration scares the life out of him. Hyo rips off a metal bar from the deplorable decoration before bolting into the next room in a panic.

He swiftly falls into a trap door, along with Roxas and— soon after— Amancio. Hyo has at this point reached his wit's end, and has a lapse of panicked judgement that ends with him accidentally hitting Amancio in the face with the metal pole. After realizing what he's done, he runs off into the darkness.

Hyo manages to find the way out of the trap door, soon returning to the safety above and reuniting with Blake through a slew of tears. Upon Blake's command, the two of them head forth into the next room.

The floor is covered in ice. Hyo slides along the edge half-heartedly, mind elsewhere. In the end, Blake's lead gave him the win. Dorian is sadly the one heading home, with Hyo narrowing escaping elimination himself.
