Yatsuhashi is very self-conscious due to his size, strength and Semblance. He demonstrates a protective nature. As a result of a fairly traumatizing childhood incident, Yatsuhashi does not like using his Semblance. He frequently meditates to keep his patience in check, having a temperamental nature at times, and opting to stay quiet in contrast to his teammates' hotshot attitudes. Before the match, he is seen meditating in the arena next to Coco. Later he rather bluntly tells Emerald that he can't promise that he won't hurt them during their match.
