The first character on this website to be worked on, and the reason this page exists.

- He was named after Issun-Boshi, a Japanese myth about an inch tall samurai.

- Despite being a school teacher, elementary school children scare him.

- His father is Chinese and his mother is Japanese.

- He broke his left leg falling off of a desk, which is why he has an ilizarov frame.

His teeth are messed up because they're too hard to see to operate on them.

90% of his money goes towards medical bills.

His reference image says 7½ inches tall, though he's always been 7.2 and I don't know what happened there.

7 inches is the size of the average hand. For visualization purposes.
