His parents and sister died in a car accident when he was young, and his father's friend Masachika Kōda, a shogi professional, takes him in after noticing his talent. Rei does not get along with Kōda's children, Kyoko and Ayamu, and when Kōda makes them give up shogi after losing to Rei, Rei moves into a one-room apartment in Rokugatsu-chō. He skips a year of school before enrolling in high school. Guilt over beating his adoptive father in a professional match sends him into a panic, and he collapses in the street.
