Physical Description: Yoshito is fairly tall, standing at 6'1”, with a build that – while still slender – is far more muscular than his older brothers' (Isamu not included), and even than many Tensei males'. His black hair has been dyed red at the tips, and is worn in a sort of poofy, spiky style. These spikes bounce up and down when he moves enough, lending a rather interesting visual effect to his performances with Crimson Phase and his Taijutsu during combat. His skin is fair and his eyes the same dark, steely blue as his siblings', and he is constantly smiling. He knows darn well he isn't bad-looking, and carries himself with a sort of confident swagger. He wears a black sleeveless vest-type garment over a red sleevelss turtleneck, with three metal plates on the upper left of the black outer garment. His slightly baggy pants are black with a red stripe down the outside of each leg. Black fingerless gloves with metal plates on the back and either black ninja sandals or black boots complete his daily attire. His forehead protector, like Hideki's and Akihiko's, is worn around his waist like a belt.
Picture Here!
Personality: Energetic, charismatic, and enthusiastic, Yoshito is just what you'd expect from the hyperactive younger brother in the group (he is, after all, the youngest – if only by 54 seconds). Even at 17 years old he is noted to be in almost perpetual motion – whether it's practicing, performing, training, or going on missions, this energetic Tensei is always doing something. His high energy tends to make him want to jump from one thing to another in rapid succession, making having a conversation with him rather challenging as he tends to hop from topic to topic in such a way that only makes sense to him, or those who can keep up with him. He can, actually, focus on one thing for an extended period of time, though one might not be able to tell by watching him. I is, however, more difficult for him to do so while sitting still. He is, however, quite friendly, though he can come off as almost pushy because of his overly enthusiastic nature.
Likes: Music (duh), the color red, sweets, his family (especially his twin Isamu, with whom he shares a particularly close bond), jokes
Dislikes: Sitting still, being bossed around (outside of taking orders on missions), people with no sense of humor
History: Yoshito has ever been a legendary troublemaker in the Tensei clan. Sometimes his antics are caused by a desire to play jokes or goof around, and sometimes just from an inability to stay still. He has gotten better about this over the years, but still gets into trouble now and then – especially when let loose with his older cousin Eiji, whom he practically idolizes.
Even from childhood, music has been one of few things that's been able to soothe Yoshito's tendency to bounce off the walls. Practicing and performing give him a positive outlet for his energy, and an adrenaline rush to boost. Unlike his other siblings he doesn't plan an instrument – but he does, however, have a fantastic singing voice; a strong, resonating tenor that suits Crimson Phase's music perfectly.
One particular incident got Yoshito and Isamu in more trouble than any other scheme before or after. While many Tensei “duplets” (muptiple-birth siblings) are assigned to the same team – the primary example of this being the practically infamous Triplets – Yoshito and Isamu were actually split up and assigned to separate teams, much to their dismay. It did, however, afford them a unique opportunity. While both of them were completely open with the fact that they have siblings, both of them – on purpose – failed to mentioned that they're each one half of a set of twins. This ruse established the basis for what the Twins dubbed the Great Switch. Every now and then, Yoshito and Isamu would switch places – Yoshito would beet with Isamu's team, and Isamu with Yoshito's. They did this for training, outings, even missions – until, that is, their siblings found out about it. Hideki, Akihiko, and Akane went to the Hokage, explained the situation, and requested that those two teams be assigned a mission together. The Ninth, of course, was only happy to oblige, and promised to grant their request as soon as practically possible.
The Twins – and their respective teams – never saw it coming. Their reactions have reached almost legendary status in the Tensei clan and amonst the teams' peers. The Twins, of course, got in major trouble for the stunt they pulled, and it took some time for anyone to believe them when they said who was who.
The Twins were 13 when Crimson Phase formed, with Yoshito as the lead singer. His natural charisma and energetic attitude made him a natural frontman for the band, though it was – and still is – Hideki's leadership that keeps everything together. At the age of 15 the two were promoted to Chuunin, and continue to perform and to serve the Village to this day.
