Takayuki Kimoto (
Biography[]
High school[]
Takayuki was in Class 2-A at Eitoku Academy, when he accidentally angered Tsukasa Domyoji, leader of the F4. On that day, Takayuki was eating an orange and the juice from said orange flew into Tsukasa's eye by accident. He was given a red card soon after. Takayuki attempted to flee upon seeing the red card. Unfortunately, homeroom was called off at the same time, which allowed for the other students to corner him. He was then pelted with eggs, before being brought to the cafeteria as the F4 arrived. Takayuki's best friend was brought forward and Tsukasa tried to goad him into hitting Takayuki. When he refused, Tsukasa punched both of them several times. Takayuki most likely left Eitoku after this incident.[1]
Physical appearance[]
Takayuki was an average-looking high school student with a normal height and build. He had brown hair, which reached to his collar, as well as dark brown eyes. Takayuki was only depicted wearing his Eitoku Academy uniform.
Etymology[]
His surname, Kimoto (樹本; きもと), contains two kanji. The first means "trees," "wood"[2] and the second "book," "origin".[3] Both kanji share the radical (木), which means "tree."[4] It is unknown exactly how he spells his first name, Takayuki, but it can be rendered in hiragana as たかゆき.
