Headcanons

His birthday is February 3rd, he's an Aquarius and his blood type is B+

He's the tallest member after Kabeyama, just beating Tsunami and Desarm by a few inches.

He's actually 15 and should be in 3rd year but due to certain personal circumstances, he was held back one year.

He has green hair and gold like eyes, which jus like Ryou, he would wish to have the same color as his own mother, instead of his father's.

He's originally from Nara, and lived there until he was 2, then he moved to Inazuma with her mother, father and baby sister.

His family is quite a mess.

His parents never married, and it was later revealed to them that Ichirou already had a family, where he has 3 kids: Takato, the eldest one; Kiba, who has the same age as Tezuka; and Mio, a young girl who has the same age as Mirai.

Tezuka began playing soccer by the age of 4, and started as a GK, but as he grew up he decided to change to FW in order to prove that he was better than Takato and Kiba.

He's considered a top tier GK and a prodigy FW, compared to be on the same level as Gouenji.

Aside from soccer he's a talented drummer and also pretty skilled on boxing and tennis.

Asides from sports, Tezuka is also pretty skilled in the kitchen. He and his sister Mirai work as helpers at RaiRaiKen, but he ends up quitting when Hibiki becomes Raimon's coach.

Due to his friendship with Ryou, he has also been dragged to some of the few runways and modeling works that Ryou has done along with some music gigs with and without him.

Due to a falling out with Ryou right before starting junior high, Tezuka becomes Kojou's captain, guiding them during their first Football Frontier all the way to the quarter-finals, where they lost against Seishou Gakuen in OT 4-3.

During their second year, they had the misfortune to cross paths with Zeus after they eliminate Teikoku. They also end up losing but the match ends just 2-0, due to Tezuka being the substitute GK, becoming the first one to stop Aphrodi's shoot.

He officially joins Raimon just after Someoka gets cut from the team due to Ryou challenging his old mates to a match when he found out they also had succumbed to the power of the Aliea meteorite, just like Sakuma & Genda.

At first, Aki and Endou were the only ones open to give him a chance.

The remaining members still hold a grudge against him. Toukou went far enough to give him a jersey with the number 42 (which pronounced as shi ni sounds a lot like shine or "to die")

Just like Ryou enjoys teasing Natsumi, Tezuka has a thing for getting on Toukou's nerves, but as a teammate he's willing to take the risk himself to protect her.

Unlike Ryou, he's more of an aloof person, and tries not to mingle with the rest of the team due to some personal issues.

He's in not very good terms with almost everybody but still manages to become best friends with Fubuki, Tsunami and Tachimukai, the last two due to not having experienced the game against Kojou.

His love interests are... oh boy how do I put this? He's just as a womanizer as Fubuki was at the beginning, but in the end his interests are Aki and Toukou. Aki because he has repeatedly told Izumi that he thinks she's really pretty, and he also liked how she didn't judge him for his mistakes, and Toukou due to the fact that she's not scared of him and has no quarrels to "fight" him.

He finds annoying the habit of Ryou wanting him to make all his techiniques based on techiniques from the Guilty Gear saga, but still created a couple paying homage to Zato-One/Eddie due to ther themes being shadows and "spooky things".

He always wears long sleeved clothes under the uniform due to not wanting anyone to see the scars on his body.

Said scars were made by his half brothers. Tezuka tried to approach them in order to see if it could be possible to have a nice brotherly relationship, but instead those two were complete a*holes with him.

Bonus pic: Tezuka after being "cleaned up" by Aki (A.K.A. He found out he liked Aki so he kinda stepped up his game for her. Ain't he cute 🫶🏽?
