Biography
Early Life
Kenji, during the series, never talked much about his life before his acquaintance with Castle. He mentioned how he first discovered his ability to disappear and struggled to reappear for the next few days, but that is the most he has told Juliette Ferrars. When he was found by Castle, he was in a poor state with only a shopping cart in his possession. He was in the area of the current-day Omega Point and Castle had taken pity on him and they stayed together ever since, forming a strong bond.
Shatter Me
In the first book, Kenji is introduced as being Adam Kent's friend. As Adam and Juliette were in Juliette's room, Kenji had asked to see Juliette, but Adam had gotten extremely offended and slammed the door in his face, exclaiming how Juliette was not something to just show off. Kenji treated her like this much throughout the rest of the book, as well as commenting on how attractive she was to provoke Adam.
When Adam and Juliette escaped from Warner's mansion, Kenji later caught up with them at Adam's house. Adam grew very suspicious that Warner sent him since no one knew where Adam lived and Kenji's story seemed very ridiculous. Kenji claimed that he had woken up in a shack after a man carried him there when he blacked out from bullet wounds. But despite the fact, he allowed Kenji to come with them in search of a safer place to hideout.
Adam showed more trust in Kenji, despite it being very reluctant, by putting James Kent into his hands when Warner and his men showed up at Adam's door because of the radiation Kenji accidentally brought back on his way to Adam's. Against Adam's warnings, Kenji had drugged James in order to keep him calm. Adam grew furious with Kenji when he realized this, and Kenji claimed it was for the best.
Kenji leads the four to Omega Point, a sanctuary for those with special abilities. He revealed that he could turn invisible and this was how he knew where Adam lived; he followed Adam home, tracking the path.
