Chizuo

Chizuo (千津夫) was the maternal grandfather of Tenko Shimura and Hana Shimura, the father of Nao Shimura and husband of Mako. Not much is known about him currently, except that he died when his grandson’s Quirk went out of control.

Appearance
Chizuo was a relatively chubby and large elderly man. He had the same hair color as his daughter.

Personality
Chizuo was a family man, as he loved his whole family. He was disgusted by the abuse his son-in-law put on his own child but did not intervene on it. However, he joined his wife and daughter in confronting Kotaro on his behavior.

History
He and his wife lived in the house of their daughter and son-in-law, which permitted them to have an everyday role in their grandchildren's lives. Although Chizuo spent everyday with his family, he was disgusted by the abuse Kotaro subjected his son to for liking heroes.

One night, Tenko's Decay Quirk manifested and he ended up killing the family dog and his sister. Chizuo, his wife, and daughter appeared and are horrified with his acts. Begging for help, Tenko tries to reach his mother, but he touches the ground and his decay spreads, accidentally slaughtering them. All that remained of him was his hands, which were recovered by All For One and Tenko added them to his villain costume after he became Tomura Shigaraki.

Paranormal Liberation War Arc
As Tomura laid unconcious after his procedure was interrupted, he experienced a warped version of his past, culminating in a shadowy version of All For One appearing before him. Constructs of his family desperately try to stop him from following in All For One's footsteps, but Tomura destroys them without hesitation, telling them not to reject who he is.

Trivia
