* TheArtifact: His wrestling style can be considered such, not only because shoot-style was hugely popular back when Mochizuki became a pro wrestler yet is pretty much forgotten today, but also because Masaaki's usage of it came from being a member of a shoot-style themed stable that disappeared from Toryumon in less of a year. Over the years, he adopted a more lucharesu-inspired approach to fit with the rest of the promotion, but he still stands out for his stiff kicks and holds.
* AscendedFanboy: Was a Wrestling/NobuhikoTakada fanboy, and his moveset and its moves' names are based in Takada.
* BadassGrandpa: He's the oldest guy in Wrestling/DragonGate.
* BattleStrip: Over the years, he has been reducing his attire. He started wrestling in a sleeveless karategi, later changed it to just long pants and finally adopted regular tights. Since siding with BxB Hulk though he went back to long pants.
* CanonImmigrant: Went to [[Wrestling/DragonGate Toryumon]] as a freelancer before becoming a permanent member.
* DoesNotLikeShoes: Wore karate footguards during his gi times, though he later adopted boots.
* EverythingsBetterWithSpinning: His Twister finishing move is a spinning brainbuster. He also created an inverted brainbuster version as a counter to YAMATO's Gallaria, and has also used a spinning Falcon Arrow called the Twister II.
* ExtremityExtremist: His offense consists primarily (though not at all exclusively) of karate-style kicks.
* GrumpyOldMan: Especially when facing the younger talent.
* HurricaneKick: One of his signature moves, the Illusion, sees him throwing a roundhouse kick and transitioning it into a reverse roundhouse kick with the other leg if the opponent dodges the first.
* IdenticalStranger: He and former Wrestling/ProWrestlingNoah wrestler Makoto Hashi could believably pretend to be brothers. The two had fun with it for promotional purposes after acknowledging it, and even teamed up in special occasions as a SimilarSquad before Hashi retired from pro wrestling.
* IKnowKarate: Trained in Shidokan UsefulNotes/{{Karate}} and one of the first trainees of Kitao Dojo.
* RedBaron: "Ontai" ("Boss"), "Saikyo" ("The Strongest", taken from Takada), "Tetsujin" ("The Iron Man"), "Tamashi no Shugeki O" ("The Spiritual King of Kicking", officially translated as "[[TranslationTrainWreck Soul of the King of the Kicker]]").
* RoundhouseKick: The Saikyo (left leg) and Shin Saikyo (right leg) High Kicks are among his most favored moves. As a karate-based striker he'll also throw side roundhouses, and there's also the Illusion mentioned above.
* SomethingCompletelyDifferent: He was the first shoot-style wrestler in [[Wrestling/DragonGate Toryumon]], and technically the only one today, not counting the MMA influenced but otherwise lucharesu trained YAMATO.
* StartMyOwn: He has a personal brand of events, Mochizuki Buyuden ("Mochizuki's Martial Story"), where he used to host matches with other shoot-stylists and wrestlers from other promotions.

** Got fired from Wrestling/AllJapanProWrestling for real when he reportedly lost his temper on another wrestler named Nobukazu Hirai and beat him in backstage. Hirai subsequently suffered a severe stroke. He has recovered, however, and TARU has made amends with him.

* BecauseYouWereNiceToMe: Became a Crazy MAX member after they helped him in a match featuring Kitao Dojo trainees. He had already teamed up once with the gang in Mexico, so they probably clicked then.
* BrilliantButLazy: Usually wrestles in a slow, even lazy brawling style, mostly based in cheapshots and illegal attacks. However, if the occasion requires it, he can be a skilled shoot-style and power wrestler.

* CanonImmigrant: Another Kitao Dojo trainee that went to [[Wrestling/DragonGate Toryumon]].
* TheCasanova: According to interviews with other wrestlers from his time in México, he was often more interested in picking up girls than in training.
* GroinAttack: One of C-Max's trademark moves was for two of the other members to stand an opponent on his head and pull his legs apart into a Y, and then TARU would axe kick him in the groin.

* StartMyOwn: He founded the short-lived Ring Soul promotion, which actually was more of a El Dorado spin-off.
* TheUnfavorite: To the bookers of Wrestling/DragonGate, apparently. Of the four core Crazy MAX guys, CIMA and SUWA were the ones who contended for the UDG title, and Fuji formed a trios team with them, but TARU mostly teamed with whatever newcomer C-Max was trying to add to the stable (most notably JUN) and subbed into the trios team when one of the other three was injured or wrestling elsewhere.

* ButtMonkey: In Wrestling/DragonGate. Not to the extent of Raimu Mishima or Akira Tozawa's early days, but he spent a good portion of his career trying to convince people to team with him or let him join their stables, only for them to turn on him at the last second.

* NonIndicativeName: His ring name in Toryumon, Chocoball KOBE was likely inspired from Chocoball Mukai, but he didn't sport the same gimmick (or any in particular).

* StartMyOwn: Founded Wrestling/DragonGate when Wrestling/UltimoDragon left Toryumon for WWE and taking all the trademarks he owned with him.
* {{Yakuza}}: He has some of their mannerisms when he's suited up and conducting business. This is likely a subtle reference to his martial background, as Shidokan has a reputation to be the yakuza's favourite martial arts gym franchise in Japan.

* {{Yakuza}}: He has some of their mannerisms when he's suited up and conducting business. This is likely a subtle reference to his martial background, as Shidokan has a reputation to be the yakuza's favourite martial arts gym franchise in Japan.

!!!Yoshikazu Taru
* TheApprentice: To Wrestling/KojiKitao.
* AscendedFanboy: Was a fan of Wrestling/HiroyoshiTenzan, and his visual style sometimes reflects it.
* AxCrazy: Has (kayfabe) attacked fans and ring crew ForTheEvulz.
** Got fired from Wrestling/AllJapanProWrestling for real when he reportedly lost his temper on another wrestler named Nobukazu Hirai and beat him in backstage. Hirai subsequently suffered a severe stroke. He has recovered, however, and TARU has made amends with him.
* BatterUp: His reliable baseball bat, decorated with the Crazy MAX's "Flower of Evil" logo. After leaving Dragon Gate, he replaced it with a simple [[PipePain lead pipe]], perhaps symbolizing his bygone era or something.
* BecauseYouWereNiceToMe: Became a Crazy MAX member after they helped him in a match featuring Kitao Dojo trainees. He had already teamed up once with the gang in Mexico, so they probably clicked then.
* BrilliantButLazy: Usually wrestles in a slow, even lazy brawling style, mostly based in cheapshots and illegal attacks. However, if the occasion requires it, he can be a skilled shoot-style and power wrestler.
** Quite literally, as he said in an interview that the first time he went to Mexico, he spent more time with local females than training, which made Wrestling/UltimoDragon scold him.
* CanonImmigrant: Another Kitao Dojo trainee that went to [[Wrestling/DragonGate Toryumon]].
* TheCasanova: According to interviews with other wrestlers from his time in México, he was often more interested in picking up girls than in training.
* GroinAttack: One of C-Max's trademark moves was for two of the other members to stand an opponent on his head and pull his legs apart into a Y, and then TARU would axe kick him in the groin.
* TheFace: During his time in Crazy MAX, he served as their manager and mouthpiece.
* {{Heel}}: Actually has it printed on his shirt.
* IKnowKarate: Trained in Shidokan UsefulNotes/{{Karate}}.
* LightningBruiser: His moveset contains moonsaults and diving leg drops along with power moves and karate kicks.
* ManOfWealthAndTaste: When not wrestling he generally wears tailored suits.
* OnlyOneName: In Wrestling/DragonGate as TARU.
* RealMenWearPink: Despite his nasty character and personality, he is famously a fan of girly J-pop bands and female idols like Morning Musume, Q.T.Honey (not, not [[Anime/CutieHoney that one]]) and Misato Watanabe.
* SpinningPiledriver: His finisher, the TARU Driller. He inherited it from Kitao, who used it as the Kitao Driller.
* StartMyOwn: He founded the short-lived Ring Soul promotion, which actually was more of a El Dorado spin-off.
* TheUnfavorite: To the bookers of Wrestling/DragonGate, apparently. Of the four core Crazy MAX guys, CIMA and SUWA were the ones who contended for the UDG title, and Fuji formed a trios team with them, but TARU mostly teamed with whatever newcomer C-Max was trying to add to the stable (most notably JUN) and subbed into the trios team when one of the other three was injured or wrestling elsewhere.
