Leo is a new student who transferred to Katta Kirifuda's school. He constantly repeats the phrase "Ore wa Leo" ("I am Leo"), which is referenced in the card-name of Codename Orewaleo. He was a big fan of Duel Masters and YA.RA.SI band, but he also wanted fame. So one day he got on the stage of YA.RA.SI's concert in order to get the attention of the world.
