Satoru is a complicated person. He frequently exhibits a carefree and lighthearted attitude with his pupils, close friends, and coworkers. He is harsh and indifferent to sorcerer executives, as seen by his open disregard for Principal Gakuganji and his adversaries.
Satoru considers himself to be unbeatable and is incredibly confident in his skills and reputation as a potent sorcerer. His opinions of people frequently only extend to his assessment of their strength, and he is generally uncaring about those he views as weak. He is also extremely conceited and driven by a strong desire for power. He said, during his battle with Toji Fushiguro, that “throughout the Heavens and earth, he alone is the honored one,” which is true. This is further demonstrated when he was given the responsibility of guarding Riko Amanai, one of the few “weak” persons he actually learned to exhibit sympathy for. However,
Satoru is periodically observed during heated confrontations to enter a frenetic fighting condition, propelled by his desire for triumph and the irrefutable evidence that he alone is the strongest. His dominating and forceful attacks, together with showing off his perfected techniques to his opponents, define his combative approach. Additionally, he has the capacity to become cold-blooded under pressure. When he feels the sacrifice is inevitable, he will put the annihilation of his adversaries over the preservation of innocent people. He will not injure anybody permanently or kill any innocent individuals in order to get the upper hand; however, this only applies to those who were slain by his opponent.
