Yuji was originally established to play with the revised Katana powerset, and his character grew as the Tagaki family's backstory developed. His default costume is a palette flip of his sister Kei's original costume, and as a character, he has become increasingly inspired by Hiro from the television show "Heroes". Many of the themes that connect the two characters, however, date back to his original concept: The sword that grants him his power, his bookish nature (and eyeglasses) his wide-eyed naivite, and his otakuishness.

Affiliations
Yuji is the younger brother of the hero Keiko and the villianess Kage-ko. He is a member of the supergroup Quantum Tears, and is a student at Paragon University, where he attends classes with Swift, who he has a bit of a crush on, tho the feelings are both unnoticed on her part, and unreciprocated.
Personality
A bit overly scholarly, and unathletic, Yuji is generally a bit on the timid side, and views the world with a naive perspective. He idolizes his sister Keiko as the epitome of everything he wants to be, and strives to follow her footsteps as a crime fighter. He knew before he came to paragon, however, that he would be horribly out of his league, so he broke the seal on his family's ancestral sword. When he draws his blade, his personality seems to recode. He becomes agressive, warlike, and determined. the spirits of generations of Ko clanlords, a line of warrior princes and princesses, seize control of his body. They are not, however, interested in subverting his will, so much as shaping him to become a future leader for their clan. He does not "lose control", he simply becomes more seasoned and determined until he sheaths his blade, his work done.
He refuses to kill rather steadfastly, and although he has drawn blood and wounded, he tends to use the flat of his sword to disable enemies rather than finish them off.

Abilities
With his sword drawn, Yuji becomes a seasoned and cautious warrior, more than capable of defending himself against even a master swordsman. However, when it is sheathed, he is a bit clumsy and timid. He retains most of his invulnerability as long as he holds or wears the sheath of his sword, however, and his physical ability is boosted at all times, but his talent for using those attributes are restricted to when he has his sword in hand.
Equipment
His ancestral blade was taken from the family temple before he fled to paragon, and contains the spirits and memories of fifty generations of Ko clan leaders. Apart from that, he sometimes wears bits of his clan's armor, but it serves mostly for decoration, as the aura granted to him by the weapon's sheath does far more to protect his life.
He is also very nearsighted, and wears glasses as a result.
Weaknesses and Limitations
In addition to the aforementioned nearsightedness, when his weapon is not drawn, he is nearly incompetent in a fight. His invulnerability also depends on his contact with the sheath of his sword, and if taken from him, would leave him vulnerable.

Trivia
- Yuji is oblivious to the true events that transpired between his sisters, and Keiko refuses to tell him anything.
- He is also a devoted fan of literature, poetry in particular, and composes haiku as a hobby.
