Kanate is sarcastic and does not hesitate to voice his opinions about others. He feels no shame regarding his actions. Kanate is highly competitive with Hinohara for Kotoha's affections, a rivalry that Kannagi mocks. Kannagi picks on Kanate, growing irritated whenever Kanate tells Hinohara that they should not allow a sneaky, weaponless shinshou into their group. Kanate harbors bitterness toward his brothers and father for abandoning him and Ginchi during a raid. He desires to grow stronger to seek revenge on his family for their betrayal. Kanate is distressed by his weakness compared to Hinohara and Kannagi; consequently, when one of Kugura's Zokushou offers him the chance to wield a Hayagami, he eagerly seizes the opportunity. However, after becoming a Zokushou, he leaves the group and murders all the members of the thief clan he once belonged to.
