Bio
Goro's mother died when he was 3, and his father is often not home on away games, thus Goro developed an independent personality very early.

When Goro was 5 years old, he met ../Toshi/ and taught him baseball. They became best friends and rivals.

When Goro was 6 years old, his father ../Honda/ passed away. He was adopted by ../Momoko/, his former kindergarten teacher.

At 9 years old (4th grade), Goro joined the Mifune Dolphins, and defeated the Yokohama Little which was the previous year's national champion. Goro visited America at ../Joe Gibson/'s invitation. After watching Gibson's performance at the MLB All Star game, Goro fully made peace with Gibson for killing his father.

At 10 years old (5th grade), ../Momoko/ married ../Shigeno/, who then became Goro's adoptive father. The entire family moved to Fukuoka the same year.
