Backstory: [ Manga Spoilers ] Minami Terano was a Japanese child who grew up in the slums of the favelas of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. His mother was ill and young Minami's only source of comfort was an out of tune piano. He became very passionate about classical music.
A man, Dino, took care of his mother and taught Minami how to survive in the favelas even though he was a foreign child. Dino introduced him to violence and soon Minami knew the harsh reality, at only 5 years old Minami had to kill for Dino his rivals using a gun. Dino was like a king in that town.
With his first kill, young Minami bought a pair of shoes and soon learned to survive of the "benefits" of violence.
Dino gave Minami a new name, so he became "South" Terano.
When he was 12 years old, a tragic event occurred: South was covered with Dino's blood, which was beaten to death by South himself probably in the rage of the moment, in tears. He earned the nickname of the "Tyrant" Terano and became the gang leader of the Dino South.
At the age of 14, another tragic event occurred: a rival gang entered his home and shot him and his mother in revenge. South fought between life and death as his mother lost her life. Now without parents, South went to Japan to live with his grandparents.
Japan 2006, South was an inmate at the juvenile reformatory - on Feb. 24 in the same reformatory came former members of Yokohama's Tenjiku; the Haitani brothers from Roppongi, ninth generation Black Dragons ex-leader Shion Madarame and Mochizuki Kanji from Kawasaki. Former Toman member Yasuhiro Muto was also there.
South faced some bigwigs and if he was able to beat them all "he would be the strongest in Kanto", he wanted to create his new "era" in Japan. He defeated them all.
In 2007, South Terano was released after the others. In the same year he created the Rokuhara Tandai with first members the Haitani brothers Ran and Rindo, Shion and Mochi.
South wanted to enlist Kakucho, who was defeated in a fight. He admitted defeat and joined the Rokuhara Tandai under South's command. Kakucho was named the best fighter of the Rokuhara Tandai.

Present 2008, the Toman was disbanded two years ago and this brought huge changes. Because the Toman controlled the Kanto region the bosozoku gang world went crazy. Many gangs were born and others were defeated resulting in a "civil war" which period was called the "Sengoku period". However, three important figures put an end to this period; located in Minato is Terano South who represents Rokuhara Tandai, in Shinjuku is the mysterious captain of Brahman Kawaragi Senju, and Manjiro Sano in Shibuya as the captain of Tokyo Manji. Tokyo is divided into these three gangs and a balance was found called "the era of the three heavens". Unlike the kids from before, these gangs can be hired by companies to solve their problems.
Throughout the manga South talks about the dark impulses and refers to Mikey as someone who can understand him, "only those who love violence can understand these impulses" becoming a man lost in his own darkness.

Personality: South is confident in himself believing in his overwhelming strength. He had a short temper and tend to violently lash out at those who provoked him, no matter who they were. Along with his temperamental attitude, South had an obstructive behavior. He became a misled child because of his savage upbringing in the impoverished sector of Rio de Janeiro, his hometown.
He became a individual blinded by his prideful personality.
South during the childhood became passionate about classical music and he used to play a out of tune piano.He became a cruel individual even victim of a system.
He enjoy inflicting pain on others for irrational reasons and constantly exhibited a superiority complex toward his peers. For these reasons, South had no qualms about killing at all. South tends to say what Italian words or phrases in reference to some classical music terms every time he scores a hit.
Some of the words he shout are “Fortissimo” (ff) which translates to “very loud” (Chapter 211), "Forte" (f), "Vivace", "Allegro", "Vivo".

Apparence South is tall and muscular with slight foreign features who significantly dwarfed his companions. He had light hair often kept in a bun, piercing light round eyes that contributed to his intimidating demeanor, and a wide prominent grin on his face. He bore a Brazilian tribal tattoo design on the rightmost side of his chest that extended up to his neck and a gunshot wound on the left. South was most often seen wearing the traditional Rokuhara Tandai uniform, but would habitually go shirtless from time to time.
At five years old, South had average height and a slender build. He had platinum clean-cut hair and walked around barefoot. As he grew, he distinctly gained more muscle. He shaved his hair at twelve years old, but eventually grew it out to its relatively short length before his death. [ source: Wiki ]

Background and Trivia: Japanese migration to Brazil is celebrated annually on the anniversary of 18 June 1908, the date when the Japanese ship Kasato-Maru arrived in the port of Santos, south of Sao Paulo, carrying the first 781 people to take advantage of a bilateral agreement promoting migration.
Half of them were from the southern part of the island of Okinawa, located about 640km south of the rest of Japan, which had its own distinct language and culture dating back to before the island's annexation by Tokyo in 1879.
Today, Brazil is home to the world's largest community of Japanese descendants outside of Japan, numbering about 1.5 million people. Japanese authorities promoted emigration as a national policy until the late 1960s to alleviate poverty and overpopulation and encouraged people from rural areas in particular to seek work abroad.
There had been earlier policies to send migrants to work as labourers in the Hawaiian sugarcane fields, on the US mainland and Canada's West Coast and, to some extent, in Mexico but they proved short-lived as those countries adopted restrictions on immigration. Tokyo soon started looking for opportunities further south.
Brazil, where slavery had been abolished in 1888, was looking for cheap labour to work in the coffee plantations of its south-east.
Japanese migrants filled that gap but quickly many realised they could earn more by working their own land.
The community soon prospered working the rich, arable lands of Sao Paulo state, where they revolutionised agricultural techniques, growing a variety of vegetables, rice and greens, some of which they introduced to the country.
Unlike in their homeland, where the Japanese authorities banned the Okinawan language following the islands annexation, Okinawans living in Brazil were free to speak their language and celebrate their culture.
Back in Japan, its speakers are few and far between, prompting Unesco to add it to its list of endangered languages.

Brazil now has the largest Japanese-descendant population in the world outside of Japan, and it is at its most visible in the famous Liberdade district of Sao Paulo, with its red painted archways and Japanese restaurants.
But when Brazil's economy hit troubled times in the 1980s, this process went into reverse and descendants of Japanese immigrants began to look to Japan, the country of their parents or grandparents, as a land of opportunity.
Initially some went with tourist visas, but in 1990 Japanese law was changed to allow descendants of Japanese citizens long-stay visas and the right to work.

South had a very rough past with a lot of violence and he was raised in one of the poorest situations. Because the topics may be associated to some realities I don't want to romanticize or stereotyping these realities or victims of a system. If I write something inaccurate I didn't on purpose and I apologize, please tell me politely in DM.
I'm not an apologist neither I want to be hated for the character I decided to portray - If you don't like it or feel uncomfortable with it, just mute/sb me or avoid to interact.
