Chojuro was distinguished by extreme shyness and an almost complete lack of self-confidence, despite his status as one of the Seven Swordsmen of the Mist. He constantly doubted the correctness of his actions and reacted painfully to criticism. More than anything in the world, he admired the Fifth Mizukage, Mei Terumi, and thought of her as kind and beautiful, wishing to protect her smile. Ao, his senior comrade, endlessly scolded Chojuro for his indecisiveness and softness, calling such behavior unworthy of a man. In daily life, he was lost even when choosing food, which caused additional grumbling from his bodyguard. However, behind his external timidity lay genuine devotion and a readiness to fight when it came to the lady's safety. Over time, especially on the battlefields of the Fourth Great Ninja War, Chojuro became much more confident in himself. He cut down Black Zetsu without hesitation with his blade and stated directly that the more confident he was, the stronger his strike. This moment became a turning point in his character, and he ceased to be merely the Mizukage's shadow. He accepted responsibility as a full-fledged member of the Seven Swordsmen, vowing to protect his position at the cost of his life. Despite his growth, he retained his modesty and respect for his elders, never boasting about his increased power. Even holding the legendary Hiramekarei, he did not show aggression without need and preferred to act carefully. In communication with allies, he was polite and taciturn, and he faced enemies with cold resolve, not wasting words.
