Summary
A mission gone awry sets the tone for Hanzo’s time in Overwatch: poorly managed tensions and thwarted reconciliation.
Before he gets things under control, a segment of the past arrives to bring warning of Talon's hunt for the Shimada brothers. Hanzo’s days grow increasingly difficult, as he tries to embrace a future that moves further and further out of reach.

Summary
Hanzo Shimada doesn’t impress easily; not with food, not with art, and certainly not with the flood of amateur commentary passing for journalism these days. So it catches him off guard when a series of sharp, unflinching opinion pieces by an independent journalist named Joel Morricone start becoming the highlight of his nights.
Or, Hanzo falls in love with Cole Cassidy’s writing persona.

Summary
When the oldest Shimada brother enters the fold, Cole doesn’t think much of him. Just a ‘holier-than-thou’ rich guy with a stick up his ass. He's known a great share of them throughout his years, and surely, this time is no different. Cole has come to terms with his past, but Hanzo can’t say the same. His first impression is none better. He finds Cole loud, talkative, and disingenuous. Only when they see each other for who they truly are do they find common ground.

Summary
“You wear the mask for too long and you start to forget what your face looks like underneath,” Ana had told McCree once, and McCree, seeing Hanzo wander the base like a ghost, keeping his face composed and controlled at all times, saw fit to pass on that bit of advice.
After learning his brother was alive, Hanzo tried to join him in Overwatch but found the people there unpleasant and unwelcoming, so he returned to his life as a hired assassin until a year later when Genji is injured on a mission. He comes back to Gibraltar and decides to give trusting the people of this organization another chance.
