relatively happy, if not refined, in his childhood, keisuke did not mind making friends even during the time of war. he cherished his comrades and did everything in his power to protect them, unbending in his devotion to his village and its people. however, following atsuya's betrayal, keisuke turned bitter and spiteful toward the very place he once considered his home. he allied with konohagakure more out of vindictive grief than an initial desire to turn against his homeland. he was not exempt from pain upon facing his former comrades in battle, however, and apologized profusely to the memory of the fallen amoungst their corpses after the fact.

following the end of the war, keisuke experienced an early life crisis, unsure of who he was supposed to be or what his purpose was. the third hokage consoled him on this and explained that he was a victim of war who had been mistreated by those he had trusted, to which keisuke responded with philosophical, introspective thought for some time. up until his promotion to the rank of jonin, keisuke acted without conviction. he was often and continues to be, on occasion, shunned and persecuted for his previous affiliation with sunagakure, though that treatment did not seem to affect him so much as the thought that he had nowhere to truly belong. it wasn't until he was assigned a squad of genin that he realized that hiruzen had fully entrusted him with protecting and nourishing konohagakure as his own village, unlike the many who still viewed him as the enemy.

steeling his resolve, keisuke made efforts to regain his sense of self and identity. he gradually became more carefree and took on relaxed, joking mannerisms that eventually allowed others to become more comfortable around him. he proves to be rather shy in some subjects such as the true capacity of his abilities, as well as comments made toward his physical appearance. he still shows hesitation at times when it comes to acknowledging his self-worth and deciding what is best for his team, but he strives to be a role model for his pupils and encourages them to find their own identities.

(27) keisuke is the team leader of seiki, eisen, and miki and has come a long way from being the detached turncoat from sunagakure who was looked down upon by the citizens of konohagakure. he has proven himself to be a worthy leaf shinobi and has since come to mend the wounds of his past with his former village thanks to gaara's influence.

(25-26) TBA

(10-12) keisuke is little more than an experimental pseudo-jinchuriki created by the sandaime kazekage to be used as a weapon in the third shinobi world war. after being captured by konohagakure following the destruction unleashed by his eye of ra seal at the hands of his best friend, atsuya inoue, keisuke is given a second chance at life in a new village, albeit he doesn't have great standing with the other citizens. he returns to the battlefield on the opposite side of the war, killing atsuya in the process, and returns to konohagakure a war hero, though his esteem has only marginally improved.
