Kabe-Taijin rose to prominence in the underground rap scene at a young age, making waves with his sharp lyricism, flawless rhythm, and dominating stage presence. His reputation grew rapidly, and he became known as a genius-level rapper, sweeping the DRB Rap Battle Competition three years in a row.

Despite his external success, Kabe was suffering internally. The pressure to maintain his image and continue winning took a heavy toll on his health. He developed a stomach ulcer, a condition exacerbated by stress and anxiety, which made it increasingly difficult for him to perform. Ultimately, he decided to step away from the spotlight, choosing to protect his health over his fame.

His life took a turn when Zhuge Kongming, a brilliant strategist from the Three Kingdoms era mysteriously reincarnated in modern Japan, sought him out. Kongming recognized Kabe’s potential and extended an invitation to help Eiko Tsukimi, an aspiring singer, achieve musical success with a higher goal in mind promoting world peace through music.

Kabe-Taijin is a slim, youthful male with sharp features and a modern urban look that complements his identity as a freestyle rapper. He typically wears streetwear-style clothing, including hoodies, caps, and sneakers, embodying the classic aesthetic of underground hip-hop culture.

His expressions often carry a serious or contemplative tone, hinting at his inner conflict and lingering trauma from his rap battles. However, after joining Eiko and Kongming’s group, his demeanor softens, reflecting a more relaxed and hopeful outlook on life.

Kabe is intelligent, articulate, and fiercely passionate about rap but beneath that lies a young man deeply affected by anxiety and pressure. His perfectionism and fear of failure led to the deterioration of his health and his withdrawal from the competitive scene.

Initially reserved and even reluctant to re-enter the world of music, Kabe is gradually reawakened by the sincerity and emotion in Eiko’s singing. Once committed, he becomes a loyal and enthusiastic team member, bringing not only his lyrical prowess but also a newfound emotional maturity.

Kabe is a perceptive and thoughtful individual, often analyzing situations carefully before acting. Despite his talent, he remains humble and strives to support Eiko’s dream rather than dominate the spotlight.

• Former Champion Turned Recluse
  After reaching the top of the rap battle scene, Kabe becomes a recluse due to health issues and psychological strain. His withdrawal is marked by a desire to escape the toxic competitiveness and mental stress that once defined his career.

• Kongming’s Invitation
  Kabe’s talent catches the eye of Zhuge Kongming, who sees in him a powerful ally capable of contributing to Eiko Tsukimi’s rise in the music world. Kongming confronts him not with pressure, but with understanding and strategic wisdom, slowly drawing Kabe out of his shell.

• Inspired by Eiko’s Song
  The turning point for Kabe comes when Eiko performs “Find the Way”, a song that holds deep personal meaning for him. Her heartfelt rendition resonates with Kabe, reviving his passion for music in a way that feels pure and purposeful. Moved by her voice and Kongming’s vision, he chooses to rejoin the world of music, not to compete, but to support a cause he believes in.
