History

In his first tournament of fourth year Elementary school, he heavily injured his opponent Kariya Shun. From then on he wasn't allowed to appear on the stage of Elementary and Middle school sumo.[1]

Synopsis

District Preliminary arc

Along side Kariya Shun they attend the district preliminary bout between Onimaru and Sada Mizuki. Observing the match they discuss each individual's fighting style and the possible outcome of the match.[2]

When Onimaru is declared the winner of the match, Kuze becomes surprised and wonders how much he trained to achieve his Hyaki Nagi move.[3]

Later on, Kuze visits the medical room. Upon entering he knocks over Ushio until picking him up and mentioning he's heavier than he had thought.[4]

Placing him down he asks if he's hurt anywhere. When Ushio mentions about him not taking part in matches. Kuze informs him that he doesn't compete until being irrupted by Kariya calling him. When Kuze calls him over Kariya notices who he's talking with and tells him not to waste his time with people who couldn't win the District Preliminary. Kuze mentions he doesn't mean it and he was moved by Ushio's match. When Kariya is told to stop acting cool when they weren't picked to compete at their own District Preliminary. Panicking, he says his and Kuze's names will echo in the entire country.[1]

Kanto Newcomer Tournament arc

Sat down backstage away from the tournament's action.[5] Kuze over hears about Kariya Shun's match against Ushio Hinomaru from two people walking past, he stands up[6] and heads towards the match.[7] Observing their match, Kuze is taken by suprise. Backstage afterwards, Kariya claims his sumo isn't wrong and he will win next time. Agreeing with him, Kariya throws a lioncloth at him and asks if he will fight. Kuze confirms he will after a moments silence. Asked by Kariya if he's fighting for his revenge. Kuze declines and mentions he wants to fight in a formal match. When Kariya questions if his blood was stirred up by Ushio, Kuze confirms it. Shortly afterwards, Kuze now dressed for competetion heads to the sumo ring and prepares to face Kunisaki Chihiro.[8]
