After his father passed away, he doesn't have a funded background, much like Yuuichi Katagiri. He can't go to college unless he obtains a scholarship. He is planning to apply for the Law department in T University, and is aspiring to become a lawyer.

Personality
Tenji is a very spirited guy, and a top student. He does what he believes is best, going as far as lying to his friends for the sake of truth. He's known for being good at communicating with people, and is very sociable despite seeming stern. Spoiler Tenji's driven force is to disclose the truth of his father's death. He initially shows an unhealthy obssesion with Shiho Sawaragi doing everything in his power to destroy her personal relationships and making her trust him and no one other than him. He appears to be a very manipulating and cunning person. However, he does have some regrets for lying to his friends.

The truth about his obssession with Shiho dates way back in the past, between 3rd grade middle school and his freshman year at high school. His two best friends fell with her and compited to ask Shiho to hang out with her, with one of them forcing their group to a dept. Furthermore, Tenji's father died after he told him everything about the Tomodachi Game and went to see Shiho's father. This made Tenji be convinced that Shiho is behind everything happened to him and will do whatever it takes to prove it.
