Kanji and his friends defeated the source of all the shadows and saved the 'TV world', thus leaving it a peaceful world. However, after everything, Kanji suffers with PTSD and is often triggered by the occasional rainy weather.
Kanji battles shadows in the 'TV world' with his Persona and his friends each time someone gets thrown in.
Kanji is tasked with having to save Elizabeth from her unknown imprisonment and bring her home in order to clear his debts. He manages to fabricate a promise, telling her he'd take her to Paris if she went with him. However, she soon discovers he lied and that he's taking her to his hometown rather than Paris and escapes him after knocking him unconscious. After Kanji is back on his feet, he seeks her out, finding her trying to flee but after some chasing and a near-death from being thrown from a dock by a Handyman, Kanji suggests they work together again, despite having lied. They attempt to escape after Elizabeth kills Fitzroy, but are stopped when Songbird takes down their ship. When they come across the Comstock House after recovering from the crash, they discover that they need Lady Comstock's fingerprints to get through the gates, however, when they try to get her hand from the casket, Comstock left a trap that siphoned some of Elizabeth's power and using it to revive a foul and ghostly version of Lady Comstock called the Siren. Kanji and Elizabeth then follow the Siren around Emporia, to various Tears that she wishes them to see. Through the Tears, Kanji and Elizabeth discover that Elizabeth is not the child of the Comstocks, but rather a child stolen from another reality. After confronting the Siren and heading for the house, they're stopped by Songbird, who severly injures Kanji, thus leading Elizabeth to sacrifice her freedom for his life. When Kanji finds Elizabeth, she has aged decades, and has become the indoctrinated heir to prophecy that Comstock wished. She shows Kanji his hometown of 1984 under attack by Columbia, the mountains of men being drowned in flame. Kanji weakly objects, saying that he was always going to come for her. She explains that he did, many times, but Songbird always stops him. Regretting her fate, Elizabeth gives Kanji a card to deliver to her young self, and opens up a Tear, sending Kanji back to the right reality and time. Arriving in the Comstock House laboratory, Kanji follows Elizabeth's screams until he finds her being operated on by Comstock's scientists. Filled with rage, Kanji shuts down the Siphon cancelling out Elizabeth's power, at which point she opens a Tear to a field beset by a raging twister, where the scientists are blown away. Kanji then carefully releases her from her restraints and spinal tap, delivering the message from Elizabeth's older self. When Elizabeth says she intends to kill Comstock, Kanji refuses to let her, saying he plans to do it himself for what Comstock has put her through. When they find Comstock, Comstock accuses Kanji of being the reason Elizabeth's life is the way it is, thus leading Kanji to bash his head in, revealing that Comstock is the reason Elizabeth is missing her pinkie finger. Momentarily putting aside the explanations, they try to leave Columbia through Tears but can't due to the Siphon that's still in the remains of Monument Island. Using the Whistler to control Songbird, Kanji destroys the Siphon. However, the Whistler breaks and Kanji loses control of Songbird, who turns on them. Elizabeth transports them to Rapture, where Songbird is killed by ocean pressure. Elizabeth reveals to Kanji that with the Siphon gone, she can see and open Tears to "infinite" worlds, perceive all alternate realities at once. She also reveals that Comstock is not truly dead, because in other worlds, he is still alive. On a quest to stop him for good, Elizabeth and Kanji go through Tears manifesting as doors, which reveal Kanji's true history. Kanji, reluctant and anxious, asks Elizabeth to leave with him, telling her to open a Tear to Paris for them. Elizabeth, however, is intent on revealing the truth to him. With his memories returning, Kanji soon realizes that Elizabeth is actually Anna. Kanji realizes that the only way to erase the atrocities committed by Comstock (himself), and the harm visited upon Elizabeth, is for him to die before he can accept or reject his baptism, thus cancelling out either outcome. Several Elizabeths drown Kanji, and all realities in which Comstock exists are erased.
Kanji looked down at the plush elephant
in his hands, biting his lip a little.
❛ You think so ? ❜ He asked softly, heart swelling
happily in his chest at the compliments to his
plushies. Despite his FEAR of showing his
sensitive side too much, he still took pride in
his creations.
❛ Thanks, man. It means a lot to me. ❜
He smiled a little.
1. How does your character think of their father? What do they hate and love about him? What influence - literal or imagined - did the father have?
He doesn’t have a father, his father died when he was pretty young, so he doesn’t remember much about him. All he knew was that his father was ‘a good man’ as his Ma told him so often whenever he asked. But he knew his father was a touchy subject, so he avoided talking about him as much as he could.
2. Their mother? How do they think of her? What do they hate? Love? What influence - literal or imagined - did the mother have?
Oh he loves his mother. She’s his life. He cares about her happiness and her well-being. Her age tends to worry him and he’s honestly scared of losing her because she’s the only family he has. He loved everything about her, her gentleness, her acceptance of him. She never judged him for anything he did, not when he changed his look and his attitude, nothing. Of course, she didn’t let him get away with talking back whenever he was in a bad mood, she would scold him for it, but she knew how tough it was for him to deal with the bullies and that he was only reacting to what they did and took it out on everyone around him. She never really taught him how to control his anger because by the time he started showing genuine fury, he was already in his teens. However, due to her not judging and her being really accepting, she was the first person he came out to and she’s intuitive as hell, so she already knew but she waited for him to tell her. As for influence, she’s why he’s genuinely sweet and caring, if you manage to get past his tough walls. She inspired him to be respectful and loving.
6. Did they feel rejection or affection as a child?
He did feel rejection, not from his Ma, but from his peers. A lot of kids didn’t like the idea of boys liking cute ‘girly’ things, so they made it a thing to purposely tease him and push him around until he almost didn’t want to go to school anymore. And kids tend to follow other kids, so if some didn’t like him, the rest didn’t like him. He still feels rejection now, and he’s honestly scared that he’s never going to find someone that will truly love him for him. As for affection, his Ma gave him as much affection as she could, and she was his only source of it. That, and she was the only one he trusted to even approach him. When he started getting bullied, he went to her instantly and all she had to do was hug him and tell him that he was her perfect angel and that no matter what those kids said that she would always love him. Hell, he still went to her when he was in his teens. She was his only source of affection and that’s honestly all he needed. Sure, he would like more, from friends or lovers, but he’s too scared to try.
14. Were they involved at school? Sports? Clubs? Debate? Were they unconnected?
After all the shit he went through in elementary school, he honestly started giving up on school. He started slacking off in middle school and then started ditching in high school, so he was never involved in anything. He was very unconnected in school. The only reason why he started attending school again is so he can graduate and get another job to help support his Ma.
