Description
Yoshiaki has always been extremely friendly and physical with those he considers close, a man of hugs over handshakes.
He's is also much enthused in the arts, considering himself a triple threat in not only Singing, but Poetry and also Painting.
Much to his unawareness however, he was probably the most terrible artist to every pick up a paint brush in the history of man.
But the constant critiques never stopped him, for he would always continue and strive to become a better artist each day.

After Tarō's death, Yoshiaki ended up taking an almost two year leave not just to mourn his family, but to discover himself.
He spent most of his time thinking and meditating on the south side of Maguro bay, a place he once fought a great battle.
Once in a while, the Uranami compound from across the bay would bring him food and check on him, but he refused to leave.
During this time, Yoshiaki found the will to do nothing but paint, creating what he would name "The Collection of 600 Sorrows,"
a massive series of 600 paintings exactly, each painted during a single day of his almost two year retreat from the village.

Somewhere in his grief, he had gone from being terrible, to becoming perhaps the greatest painter in over 1000 generations.
The landscapes in his pieces are so beautiful than even the world around his canvas looks dull and uninteresting to the eye.
But tragically, he is cursed - For he does not see beauty in his paintings, often lamenting his work compared to his old art.
To this day, he sometimes visits the south side of Maguro Bay, where he hopes inspiration will come to him once again.
