Jigoro is a very blunt and rude guy when speaking who has an overall disdain for the younger generation, and is quick to insult [[Hisao Nakai]] at every turn, such as insulting his sweater-vest. Throughout [[Shizune Hakamichi]]'s childhood, Jigoro was very stubborn and would refuse to learn sign language in order to communicate with his daughter, instead hiring interpreters and making her communicate in writing. He often boasts about his in-progress autobiography, and constantly complains about his biographer. Jigoro's attitude comes off as being harsh and insensitive to his family and others, and there are ample hints that he is emotionally, physically, and possibly sexually abusive of both his children.


Also, he has possibly killed a bear and eaten its liver.
