Akito has been a street musician since middle school. He looks up to Shiraishi An's father, who was a street musician as well. His interest in street music was first inspired by a summer festival he was brought to by his sister Shinonome Ena in middle school. This interest became a passion when he saw RAD WEEKEND.

Together with Toya, he sang at event houses under the name BAD DOGS. While this is not as common following the formation of Vivid BAD SQUAD, sometimes he and Toya will still perform together without Shiraishi An and Azusawa Kohane, mostly if the two girls are unavailable.

At first, Akito appears to be a polite and respectful young man. However, once he gets to know a person or the topic of music gets involved, he drops the act and shows his true personality. He is hot-blooded, passionate, and gruff, and speaks with a rough, casual tone. Akito is very determined about his goals; because of this, he dislikes people who are half-hearted and dispassionate about what they like, and respects anyone who is truly passionate about what they enjoy.

While Akito may act prickly or rude towards his friends, this does not reflect how he truly feels. Deep down, he strongly cares about the people surrounding him.
