KEN is an Ultimate Sonic player with a Sephiroth secondary from Tokyo, Japan. He is considered the second best Sonic player of all-time after Sonix but was the definitive best from 2019 to 2021; he was also the best Sephiroth player in the world in 2022. KEN is currently ranked 6th on OrionRank 2022 Japan and 16th on the LumiRank 2023; he was also ranked 12th on the old Experimental Smash Player Rankings.
In Smash 4, KEN was also a Sonic player, and was considered the best Sonic player of all-time. He began his competitive career in Japan's online metagame, mainly through Tamisuma and Smashmate. He made his first offline appearance at Umebura 15 and slowly climbed to the top level, culminating in his victory at Umebura S.A.T., the first and only major victory for a Smash 4 Sonic player. Since then, he became known as one of the best Smash 4 players of all-time, ranking 9th on the Panda Global Rankings 100.
On October 14th, 2020, KEN announced that he was signed by SBI e-Sports as their first Super Smash Bros. player.[1]
