"Tetsurō is such a refreshing take on the mentor/grandparent figure. He’s rough around the edges in all the right ways, gruff, old-school, but deeply protective. You can feel how much he loves Aiko without him ever needing to say it outright. The way he reads her so well, always one step ahead, made him instantly stand out. I’d honestly read a whole side story just about his past."

What we currently know:

Tetsuro Hoshino, age 65.

Weathered by time and flame, Tetsurō Hoshino is a quiet man of quiet strength. His once-black hair is now streaked with silver, and his skin bears the marks of decades spent near fire and steel. Beneath his soot-stained apron, his movements are steady, deliberate—like someone who’s learned patience the hard way.

He speaks little, but when he does, his words carry weight. Behind his stern exterior is a deep, unwavering care—especially for his granddaughter. Together, they keep to the shadows of their seaside forge, finding purpose in the glow of molten metal and the rhythm of survival.
