Koji tried not to laugh when he saw some new member try challenging Mez. Than just a few minutes later he had almost as much respect for the kid as he did for Mez. When Pterro took away the more "experienced" members, Koji went out of his way to tell the new member that had lost to Mez "Wow, you might be the worst fighter I've ever seen." Koji sarcastically stated. "I mean, you didn't even get a hit in." He joked. The kid seemed to be taking it well, which immediately made Koji like him a lot more.

They chatted for a while and than Koji went over to greet the other new members. He was very friendly to everyone and joked around with some of the more athletic looking ones. Koji was quickly making a good impression on the new members, hoping Pterro would finally notice him for something other than his awesome username.

Koji than went over and signed up to fight in the tournament. He expected to breeze through the competition and than have an epic fight with Mez who although Koji respected him, he didn't like Mez too much and wanted to beat him and earn some respect. He had messed around with Mez before and it just resulted in him getting threatened. Mez was one of the few people that didn't like Koji besides Pterro who Koji wasn't sure about. Koji was a good fighter although he was greatly under appreciated and this made him have a minor disliking to his leader.
