Personality

Chizuo was a loving and caring man who loved all of his family dearly. He was kind-hearted, as he is shown offering his grandson sweets to try and cheer him up. Despite this, he did not step in to stop his son-in-law from cruelly punishing his grandkids whenever they mentioned heroes. While he did not intervene, he did join his wife and daughter in confronting Kotaro, wanting to end the abuse for good.

History

He and his wife lived in the house owned by 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 extremely uncomfortable by the abuse Kotaro subjected his son to for liking heroes but when Tenko would cry to them, him and his wife would only tell him to not cry choosing not to intervene with the recurring situation.

One night, Tenko's Decay Quirk manifested and he ended up killing the family dog then his sister in an accident. Chizuo, his wife, and daughter arrive because of Hana's alarming scream and are horrified by the bloody sight in front of them, almost causing Mako to collapse in shock but Chizuo catches her even though he was just as much shock as her. 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.
