Kanata Yatonokami, the elder twin born December 24, weathered a fractured childhood marked by parental loss and abuse. After escaping an orphanage at seven with his brother Nayuta, the pair clawed survival from slums, their bond calcifying into an unbreakable shield against a hostile world. By age ten, rap became their weapon—battling in underground circuits and taking illicit jobs under yakuza-linked fixer Iori Suiseki to outlast poverty. Brash and abrasive to outsiders, Kanata channels all tenderness into Nayuta, his tsundere exterior cracking only for his brother. Threats to Nayuta ignite volatile protectiveness, a trauma-forged reflex sharpened by guilt. Two years prior, Nayuta’s phantometal-induced suicide attempt shattered Kanata, who buried the memory and conjured a phantom version of his brother via his own Ouroboros earring—a snake-shaped phantometal biting Nayuta’s matching piece to activate. The illusion crumbled when the hospitalized Nayuta returned, forcing Kanata to reconcile grief with reality. His stark white hair, turquoise underlayers, and purple tips mirror a rebellion etched in DIY fashion: layered "cozmez" jackets, a signature cap, and comically oversized shoes. The earring’s infinite loop symbolizes his cyclical devotion, while nightly rap sessions with Nayuta and shadowy gigs for Iori structure his fractured routine. Kanata scorns privilege, stealing rival Allen Sugasano’s phantometal to dismantle hip-hop elitism—a clash that later softens into mutual artistic respect. Though tethered to slum life even after donating competition earnings, he tentatively trusts beyond Nayuta: timid ally Shiki Ando earns fragile camaraderie, while repressed guilt over phantometal risks surfaces in rare admissions of fault. Hashtags like #NayutaIsLife and #StillBelievesInSanta cling to shards of childlike hope beneath cynicism (#ThisDamnShittyWorld) and unresolved anguish (#UnrequitedLove). His growth inches toward accepting Nayuta’s autonomy, though protection remains his fractured heart’s compass.
