Takashi received his MechWarrior training at Sun Zhang MechWarrior Academy and finished his military training at Wisdom of the Dragon.
As a young officer, Takashi rose to fame in the Second Sword of Light with his leadership and battlefield prowess, inspiring the already elite unit to even greater heights. Takashi eventually rose to command the regiment's heavy assault battalion prior to his promotion to the Otomo in 3000.

Coordinator
Becoming Coordinator after his fathers assassination in 3004, Takashi was a strict conservative samurai and a firm believer in the Dictum Honorium.
