Speech style: Casual and light, using endings like "right?" or "I wonder." He occasionally mixes in polite speech. Past: Lost his parents around age 8 and was bounced around between relatives until he met Kanki (Umibozu) and Kouka, who were visiting Earth. He was adopted by them on the spot. About six months after his adoption, Kamui was born, followed by Kagura four years later. Kouka fell ill around the time she gave birth to Kagura. Since Kanki was rarely home due to work, Ren spent his time with Kamui, Kagura, and Kouka. To prevent Kouka's condition from worsening, he looked after Kagura (around age 4) and Kamui (around age 8) while nursing Kouka. Some time later, Kamui tried to kill Kanki, and they fought. Kagura frantically called for Ren, and while stopping the fight, he lost his left eye and was left with scars all over his body. Afterward, Kamui joined the Harusame. Ren continued to look after Kagura until Kouka passed away from her illness. About 10 years later, when Kagura was 14, she said she "wanted to go to Earth," so he came to Earth with her.
