Personality
Leon is a passionate, hot-blooded young man. He often slacks off from studying and baseball training. However, he didn’t encounter any problem with his attitude due to his status as Super High-School Level Baseball Player. Leon is also very determined to change his current title to ‘Super High-School Level Musician.’ In his Free Time sequence, the reason for that determination is revealed: to win a heart of a girl that he happened to meet at the hair salon. Later, Leon himself states that he somewhat missed playing baseball; something that he used to do every time since he was young. He evens invites Naegi to play baseball with him once they get out of their current situation.

Pre-Despair Incident
In the first image that is discovered of the Pre-Despair Incident school life, Leon is shown being in a sort of rough-housing-group-hug with Chihiro and Mondo. In other pictures, he has his arm on Sayaka's chair, he splashes water in Junko's face, he appears to be in third place in a race, he leans over and smiles widely, and he photobombs a group picture.

High School Life of Mutual Killing
Once the mutual killing begins, Leon becomes the first culprit, killing Sayaka with a kitchen cleaver. The manga reveals it was an ancident and he only tried to protect himself when Sayaka tried to kill him.

Execution
Million Fungoes - A chain closes around Leon's throat and quickly drags  him to a batting cage. When it finally stops, he finds himself tied to a signpost by several other chains. Ironic as Leon has stated that he has never went to a practice. Whereas in his execution he is dragged and forced to stay in one location of this "practice". A pitching machine appears in front of his helpless form and shoots countless baseballs in a high speed at him (Monobear joins in and hits a few balls). He is spun around on the signpost and hit from head to toe by baseballs until he dies.
