This puts him in sharp contrast with Ichiban, who passionately defends the people whom Aoki would harm because of their low station in life. Aoki is also a deeply hypocritical person, criticizing the "gray zones" of legality in public, while employing the yakuza as hired thugs and assassins behind the scenes in order to advance his political objectives. Aoki was born to Ikumi and Jo Sawashiro on January 1, in the bathroom of a department store. He was locked in coin locker 99 at Shinjuku Station as a newborn and abandoned by his parents, who were unable to care for him.
Masumi Arakawa retrieved him, unknowingly believing him to be his child with Akane , who he had instructed to hide their baby in a coin locker in order to keep him safe while the two were being pursued by members of Hikawa Industries. However, it was a cold night, and hypothermia set in before Arakawa was able to take Masato out of the locker and bring him to a hospital, resulting in multiple organ failure. He was given the name Masato Arakawa and raised as Arakawa's only son.
Although he grew up in wealth, he appears to have had an unhappy childhood due to chronic illness, which required him to use a wheelchair from a very young age. He experienced a great deal of shame about this, to the point that he was once in such distress about his inability to walk that he had to be restrained from hitting his legs, a sight that inspired Sawashiro to join the Arakawa Family in order to watch over him.
Ichiban Kasuga was tasked with Masato's care some time after his induction into the Arakawa Family. On the day before his 24th birthday, Masato is taken by Kasuga to visit Yumeno's hostess club for her birthday celebration. Taking an illegal Ephedrine injection, he is able to walk for the evening. He meets Juro Horinouchi , a law enforcement official who rebukes Masato's bribe to see Yumeno. That day he learns of Yumeno's true feelings while she talks with Horiuchi, that she sees him as nothing more than someone to squeeze money from.
Dejected, he attempts to go home by himself only for the medication to wear off before he can make it back to his wheelchair. He is attacked by Chikao Suzumori , who believes he was trespassing. Driven by anger and desperation, he murders Suzumori and calls Sawashiro to report the murder that Kasuga would take the fall for.
The events that happened on that fateful birthday make Masato despise the world that he grew up in. With the Arakawa Family's help, he fakes his death and steals an identity to travel to America under the alias of Ryo Aoki and receives a lung transplant that allows his body to function properly. There he meets Hajime Ogasawara and talks of his ambition to end the existence of Grey Zones in Japan. The two form Bleach Japan , a social movement to do so with Sota Kume being one of his most loyal supporters.
He leaves Bleach Japan to enter politics, and ran for the House of Councilors in At some point, he visits Horinouchi and his now-wife Yumeno, who does not recognize Masato and praises him. This perceived hypocrisy deepens his resentment and accelerates his implementation of the Kamurocho 3K plan. In order to obtain the support of the police, he bribes Horinouchi and several other senior police officers into collaborating with him.
In , Aoki becomes the governor of Tokyo with assistance from the Arakawa Family. He threatens his father Arakawa into leaking intel that allows the plan to succeed, unaware that Arakawa is collaborating with Daigo Dojima to allow the 3K Plan to succeed for Dojima's own agenda. By , the Tojo Clan's presence in Kamurocho is no more and the Omi Alliance takes over thanks to the bribed officers allowing it, with Aoki intending to use the Omi to further his ambitions. On like part 3 of this substory where next it says I should find Aoki in theater square but I can't find him at his usual spot, or anywhere else in the theater district.
I don't have any '! I can't find any info about it the guides I've looked at. The only reason I can think that it might not be triggering is because where I'm at in the main game or that I've got haruka rn.
If anyone knows what's up I'd appreciate it. Soo why dont the characters age? Help with extracting story data for speedrun routing. Side Quest. What is MEB and where do you find him? What does the lifestone do? Nishida's "Please Help! Where do I find Officer Majima? However, Sawashiro later claims that after Arakawa left with Sawashiro's son Ryo Aoki , the owner of the local brothel came to pull another baby out of the locker Ichiban Kasuga , who is Arakawa's actual son.
While it is never revealed that Sawashiro was telling the truth, Ichiban still felt as though both he and Aoki were sons to Arakawa.
Beyond being a wild plot twist, this also ties nicely into Ichiban's character arc. Ichiban spent much of his youth in Arakawa's Yakuza family, so its understandable that he would feel like Arakawa had a direct hand in raising him.
In fact, Ichiban spends the majority of game saying that he has always felt like Arakawa is a father to him, so the reveal that he might actually be his father drives that connection even deeper.
Chapter 15 is the final chapter of the game and culminates with a fight against Ryo Aoki , the son of Arakawa and the governor of Japan.
Ryo Aoki rose to power with a group called Bleach Japan, which focused on getting rid of "gray" areas and crimes in Japan, like the Yakuza and brothels. It also has been revealed that Aoki used the Yakuza to help him attain power, which is why the Tojo and Omi were disbanded. Ichiban shows a video of Aoki admitting to his crimes to the police, dooming Aoki's plans. Aoki escapes , leading him and Ichiban to the lockers where they were put as babies.
Aoki admits that he is the one who committed the murder that sent Ichiban to prison years ago. The two reconcile, but before Aoki can turn himself over to the police, Kume, a member of Bleach Japan and a newly elected representative, stabs Aoki. Aoki dies, and it's unclear if Kume is arrested. Aoki's arc is sad, as he spent the first several years of his life wheelchair-bound, feeling like he had no control over his life.
After getting surgery in America, he gained the use of his legs and began trying to gather power, hoping to make up for the years when he felt helpless. During his pursuit of power, he did horrible things and lost sight of the people who were there for him when he was a nobody. He realizes far too late how important his family is. Koichi Adachi is one of the members of Kasuga's party, a former cop who lost his job and pension due to corruption in the department.
