## Appearance

Gakuo is a 30 years old man whose figure seems underwhelming to someone of his position, as due to his injury, he could not develop his body as much as he would have liked to.

He has spiky red hair he doesnt comb nor tries to make more eye appealing any way, considering it as a waste of time. He is usually wearing a green and blue gi, similar to multiple other Masters of Martial arts.

## Personality

Gakuo is a very laid-back individual that doesnt put a lot of importance into things most of the time. He has little ambitions, and follows the minimal effort law, only doing what he needs, when he needs it.

Ever since he met Billy and the others, he gained a new motivation in the form of teaching those kids to be Martial Artist, which currently is the thing he cares about the most, even allowing them to enter the "legendary" training camp of Junomi.

## Biography

### Humble begginings

Gakuo was born on an unremarkable family from an unremarkable city alongside his brother Zype. He learned about Martial Arts very early on, thanks to one time his parents were watching the World Tournament, and the little Gakuo was fascinated by it. Very early on, Gakuo joined a Doojo and quickly learned the basics of martial arts, but he didnt really like what they were teaching him. Due to this, he decided to follow his own training regime instead, but it would turn out a bad way...

### The accident

At first, Gakuo did well. While he still was only a kid, he was very skilled on Martial Arts, and could tell what he needed and what he didnt need to do in order of using his talents to the max. He followed multiple different training methods, with this favourite one testing his balance and endurance by trying not to fall while walking at the side of a cliff. Gakuo was pretty good at it, but one bad day, it seemed he had done that training one to many times, and the cliff fell, making the young Gakuo fall.

Luckily, he survived the fall, but his body never fully recovered from it. Soon, Gakuo would notice that he just was not as good as he used to. His trainings became much harder and could barely give a punch without feeling pain, but he didnt surrender. Even if his body refused to get better, Gakuos soul never stopped trying, and he would find any way to recover he could. Eventually, after a couple of years of failed attemps, Gakuo would finally find a solution for his problems: ki.

### Learning Ki

One day, Gakuo, while still investigating other ways to circunvent the damage of his body, he learned about a way to make your body stronger with the power of your inner strenght: ki. However, it seemed that learning it would be a bit harder than what he planned, as no one around him even knew what this Ki was, but Gakuo had gone to far to stop, so he searched around the world to find someone that could teach him Ki, and his travells eventually made him find the mystical training camp of Junomi, where he found the current owner of it, a kid not a lot older than him named Syrius. He arrived there on accident, but luckily for him, Syrius was aware of Ki, so Gakuo could learn the basics of ki with him, and to his surprise, what he said was true, he could use Ki to make his body stronger even in his state!

### The way to the top

Gakuo stood a long time in Junomi, learning everything he could about Ki, and he even managed to create his own fighting style based on it, a style he managed to use to win multiple tournaments, turning into a minor-celebrity on the Martial arts world, with his story of self-overcoming and will being pretty well known among other fellow martial artist, and after a couple years more, he was given the tittle of master at the young age of 23, and he even participated on the World Tournament once, but was eliminated on the Preliminars. It looked like life could not be better for Gakuo... but ironically enough, all this tryumph would be Gakuos biggest enemy.

### And now what?

After finally managing to become a Master, even surpassing his supposedly unhealable condition, Gakuo had already did everything he could dream. He became a master, participated in the World Tournament, met multiple fellow masters... and now, he had nothing else to do. The Earthling established on a city, unmotivated to start his own Dojo to train others as he didnt see why anyone would want to learn about him. He lived like this for a long time, never gaining the motivation to return to the World of Martial arts... until one day, he met a kid that claimed to be the Demon Lord.

### Legacy

Unexpectedly for him, three teens appeared in front of Gakuo during a huntining session and asked for him too train them. Turns out, someone on the same city he lived in remembered him from his glory days and talked the teens about him, and they decided to make him their trainer. At first, Gakuo rejected this as he believed it would be worthless, but the teens wouldnt stop, and eventually he was forced to agree. As he kept training them, however, the excitement and live of those three kids would re-ignite Gakuos passion for Martial Arts, specially the one that appeared to be the leader, Billy. He was so impressed by him, that he even considered turning the wannabe-demon into the new master of Junomi and his star student, but that story is only beggining.
