Biography[edit]
Yu-Gi-Oh! GX[edit]
Seven Stars[edit]
Raizou is one of Chazz Princeton's two friends in Obelisk Blue, along with Taiyou Torimaki who were first seen watching the entrance exam Duels into Duel Academy taking place at Kaiba Land. Raizou expressed admiration for Bastion Misawa after he easily defeated the Duel Academy examiner. Before Dr. Vellian Crowler's Duel with the tardy examinee, Jaden Yuki, Raizou was surprised to see Crowler personally Duel an examinee and use his "Dark Medieval" Deck instead of a standard examination Deck. He, along with Chazz and Taiyou, were shocked when Crowler was defeated by Jaden.[1]
As Jaden and his new Slifer Red roommate, Syrus Truesdale explored Duel Academy, they came across the academy's Duel arena where Taiyou and Raizou, along with Chazz were hanging out. Taiyou and Raizou forbade Jaden and Syrus from Dueling in the arena since it was reserved for students of the Obelisk Blue dorm. The two Obelisk Blue students recognized Jaden from the entrance exam. When Jaden introduced himself to Chazz and inquired about him, Raizou explained that he was considered to be the next King of Games. When Jaden confidently told them he would be the number one Duelist in the academy, Taiyou and Raizou laughed, with the former ordering him to learn his place as a drop-out Slifer Red before he was interrupted by Chazz, who reminded them that Jaden defeated Dr. Crowler. As Chazz and Jaden expressed interest in Dueling each other, Alexis Rhodes interrupted them, reminding them of their dorms' welcoming parties before Chazz, Taiyou, and Raizou all exited the arena.
Later that evening, when Chazz challenged Jaden to an after-hours Ante Duel at the arena through his PDA, Taiyou was among those present to witness the Duel. When Alexis warned them about the security guards patrolling the arena, everyone was forced to flee before they were caught and expelled for breaking the rules, including Raizou.[2]
When a new shipment of rare cards was delivered to Duel Academy, Taiyou and Raizou urged Chazz to hurry before they were sold out, but they were already purchased. Later, Chazz and his two friends encountered a figure wearing a black jacket and hat, whom Taiyou recognized as the person who bought the rare cards. The figure revealed himself to be Crowler, much to their surprise, who gives the rare cards to Chazz in exchange for Dueling and defeating Jaden in the practical exams later that afternoon.[3]
Chazz, Taiyou, and Raizou watched the Tag-Team Duel between Jaden and Syrus against the Paradox Brothers, where the former two were nearly expelled for entering the forbidden Abandoned Dorm.[4] Raizou noticed Chazz's growing anger towards Jaden while Taiyou asked him if he was alright. After Jaden and Syrus won their Duel, Raizou noticed Chazz as he stormed out of the arena.[5]
Following Chazz's defeat in his Duel against Bastion, Syrus informed Jaden of Chazz's sudden departure. After Taiyou told Raizou and another Obelisk Blue student that he saw Chazz pack his belongings and run off, Raizou assumed it was due to his recent defeat. He expressed his disappointment with Chazz and laughed alongside Taiyou when the former called Chazz a "loser" and "bad rubbish" before laughing.[6]
Society of Light[edit]
When Chazz returned to the Obelisk Blue dorm after being brainwashed to join the Society of Light, Raizou was one of the first to be defeated by him and join the Society.[7]
