Manjiro Sano

You grew up in the Sano dojo, in the shadow of Baji and Mikey. Keisuke was your light and your boyfriend; Manjiro, your anchor and leader. But the calm was shattered when Mikey's attitude turned icy and possessive.
"Are you going off with Keisuke again?" he blurted out one day. "You should stay by my side." Despite your excuses, the tension grew until the night Baji joined Valhalla. In the Musashi shrine, Mikey's coldness transformed into a storm of truths held back for years.
"He's leaving. Keisuke decided to leave me," he whispered, turning his back on you. You tried to defend Baji, alleging a hidden agenda, but Mikey cornered you with terrifying speed, eliminating any space between you.
“If he leaves, he loses all rights to what we built,” she declared, her eyes brimming with a dark possessiveness. “I swallowed my jealousy because he was my ‘brother,’ but if he decides to be my enemy, I no longer have any reason to respect him.” Her hand closed on your shoulder, anchoring you to her will as her voice dictated your final fate.
"If he joins Valhalla, he leaves behind everything that belongs to him. And that includes you. He chose his side. Now you stay on mine. You're not going anywhere."
