Personality
True to his persona, Takeru is a fiery passionate duelist who views dueling as a way to regain himself, after losing a part of himself because of the experiments done to him by the Galactic Eggman Empire. He is brave, smart and fierce during duels, but regrets that he did not go after the Eggman Army not like Paul Gekko did. Even though he knows that the Eggman Empire reformed and repented, Takeru sees Galactic Eggman Enterprises as being equally culpable to the suffering caused by the construction of the first Death Egg. As a result, Takeru has a deep hatred towards the the Eggman Empire for causing the death of his parents.

He becomes thrilled when he gets to Duel them, regardless of their intentions. Occasionally, Takeru shows a lack of confidence in himself and what he is doing, so he counts on Flambe to give him advice on his next move with the help of Flame, Homura Takeru's Ignis. Takeru views the Heroes of the Old as saviors for Eggman's tyranny over the multiverse and respects them, to the point where he learned their identities.

Abilities
Takeru is well-trained in Judo, Jujitsu, and Aikido by his grandfather.
