Japanese ancestry

His name looks like Japanese, but there is no mention of it anywhere in the article. Probably his ancestors might have migrated to Brazil a few generations back. This is purely my guess based on his name. It would be good if somebody finds a reference to know his family background better. - Ravichandra (talk) 05:19, 13 April 2022 (UTC)

I looked around quite a bit, in both English and Portuguese however was unable to find any information regarding his Ancestry, however it's pretty clear that he has some Japanese ancestry.

There could be something written in Books however I do not have a good way of searching in those, if someone else does and is willing to look further into his ancestry that would be great. UfoTheUfo (talk) 17:09, 13 April 2022 (UTC)
