As the younger brother of Team Touge's former leader, "Yarehasu" Yoshida Shima, Sakon should have been the logical successor to the team's top position. However, his brother often threw logic to the winds in favor of whatever impulsive feelings he had at the time. That's how he ended up dating one Sally Russo, and also how she ultimately ended up managing to steal away control of the team for herself when he graduated. Yoshida was just too caught up in his own whims to see what was happening right in front of him.

Now, a year after the fact, Sakon has found his patience is quickly reaching its end. Family and cultural concerns dictate that he follow the orders of his upperclassman and team leader without question, but with Sally intentionally doing things meant to ruin the team's good name and even that of his own brother, he's finding it extremely difficult if not impossible to hold true to those traditions. Only the threat of being disgraced by his family and the help of his friend Kelly O'Hara have kept him from doing something he'd regret, but even that may not be enough if things reach the breaking point...


(Yes, I'm aware his right leg is up too high. Yes, I'm aware there's a lot less detail than some of my other pictures. Yes, I do think I may redo this one someday. :P )
