He trained under the record label for six months before the rookie group 6REEZE was formed, and underwent another year and a half of training before debut.

His pre-debut history is more public than other members due to his shared past with coworker Scaramouche, as they attended the same high school with a 1 year age difference. Their high school experiences were said to inspire Scaramouche greatly, as Kazuha was well known for his song and dance skills. His personality was described by former classmates as “enchanting,” and that he was very popular amongst the girls at his school.

Although he tends to zone out and daydream, this is because of his immersive creativity artistic mind. Kazuha has an INFP personality type.

## Relationships

#### Aether

Aether and Kazuha are close friends, as the leader and one of the original members of the group. When they were trainees, Kazuha and Aether always remained in the same rookie group, because of their positive chemistry and vocal synergy. They work together to write a majority of all 6REEZE’s released songs, and even mix and produce them together in the studio. On *Li-Idol: StarShow* episode 12, Aether states that Kazuha is “calm and laid-back, and one of [his] favourite buddies to hang out with when life is tough” (2021), showing that they are genuinely close with one another. Aether and Kazuha have been spotted eating out together and live-streaming together.

#### Venti

Venti is Kazuha’s “best friend” (2019) and “soul roommate” (2019) according to Kazuha, as the two of them became inseparable as soon as they met as trainees. Because Venti was in danger of being eliminated from the group due to his lacking Liyuese skills, Kazuha was one of the few to defend his case and convince RES Entertainment to keep him in 6REEZE. Venti and Kazuha were roommates as trainees and continued to live together when they moved out of their RES dorms, which Venti spoke of as “much better than sharing with [the other trainees] when [they] hadn’t yet debuted” (2020).

On a livestream, Venti claimed that Kazuha has written all his favourite songs outside of *Anti-Romantic.* Kazuha responds by saying that Venti has the most impressive voice out of all the members, proving that they respect each other a great deal. Venti frequently helps Kazuha by writing instrumentals on his tracks, and playing harp or flute. They also wrote a collaborative song solely together called *Mannequin,* inspired by their shared troubles with dissociation and the idol industry.

In a Buzzfeed interview, Venti says that he “wish he met Kazuha earlier” (2022) and would have liked to have him there for the majority of his trainee days. Xiao says that it “would have helped” after the loss of his nameless friend four years prior.

#### Scaramouche

Kazuha and Scaramouche attended Tatarasuna Private School, in which they met and ignited a rivalry. Scaramouche admits he was intimidated by Kazuha’s success and saw his kindness as condescending, immediately disliking Kazuha. Although their closeness is unclear from this part of their life, it is clear that Kazuha made an impression on Scaramouche because he dropped out of high school upon Kazuha’s graduation in order to train to be an idol. They met by chance at RES Entertainment a year later, and Scaramouche was placed in 6REEZE’s rookie group. Since Scaramouche struggled to debut because of his anger issues idol image, he almost failed to debut with 6REEZE, but Aether and Kazuha disputed the injustice against Raiden Ei and managed to secure his position. Even after debut, fans noticed some strange behaviour between the two, which Aether labelled as “friendly rivalry.” To this day, fans still speculate whether there was genuine resentment there, even if they have become close since.

Many have noticed their proximity following the first two years of debut, which has drawn attention due to its flirtatious nature and sparked the ship KazuScara. They have never publicly acknowledged their ship, despite joking about others such as HeiKazu and ScarAether in a lighthearted manner. Currently, Scaramouche and Kazuha remain one of the closest friendships in 6REEZE, and have gained notoriety for their public displays of affection. Venti jokingly calls them “soul competitors” as a play on his and Kazuha’s coined term “soul roommates.”

#### Xiao

As the main dancer in 6REEZE, Xiao gets along well with Kazuha and freestyle dances with him on stream. Kazuha often offers his opinion while Xiao is developing official choreography, and Xiao has expressed a gratefulness for his creativity but sometimes declines his suggestions and claims they are too vulgar.

As Kazuha is amiable and gets along with both introverted and extroverted people, Xiao has expressed a closeness with him but still treats him with great respect. Xiao once said that Kazuha is “the perfect image of an idol” (2019) and is always impressed by his work.

#### Heizou

Kazuha and Heizou have a playful relationship, and Kazuha enjoys giving Heizou “senior advice” as his elder, often adopting a brotherly role to him. Kazuha often compliments him on his spitfire rapping abilities and frequently assists him in learning new choreography, as Heizou said that he wishes to be as good of a dancer as Kazuha in the future.
