Biography
The Fighter
Hiro repairs delicate scientific instruments and grows miniature ferns. His stillness creates sudden countering windows, but emotional reserve leaves teammates guessing when he most needs a clear encouraging word.
Personality
self contained, attentive, avoids asking for reassurance
Ring attire
Navy satin trunks with cream side panels and trim and a gold WCBC crest. The black waistband reads “SILENT STEEL” in white, with black gloves bearing the gold crest and black-and-cream boots with white laces — quiet, polished, unyielding.
Physical appearance
Athletic adult male anthropomorphic canine boxer; Dense red coat with white urajiro cheeks and chest, broad wedge muzzle, small erect ears and compact muscular adult Japanese Akita build; no black mask. Bare torso and professional boxing shorts.

Jun Narusawa
Head coach
Jun NarusawaTraining approach
Proposed regular Osaka camp timetable, including a private pre-session check-in rather than expecting reassurance requests in a group.
Development focus
Keep the countering stillness while making an explicit request for support.
Why this gym
Hiro’s still high guard and sudden straight counters suit precise cue reading, but his emotional reserve needs more than a quiet room.
Compatibility
Jun asks directly whether reassurance is needed instead of rewarding unreadability as strength.
