Philosophy of Gokusai-kai

Gokusai-kai is a militant organization that upholds the values of "honoring obligations and never forgiving betrayal."

They are known for their uncompromising stance and thorough response to any infringement on their comrades or territory, or any serious act of betrayal.

In the underworld, the saying goes:

"Dishonesty does not fly with Gokusai-kai."

Their name is spoken of with awe and fear.

Reputation in the Underworld

• "As long as you keep your promises, Gokusai-kai is a sincere partner."
• "The moment you make them an enemy, they will pursue you to the end."
• "They never overlook harm to their members or betrayal."
• "Once a conflict starts, they are prepared to see it through to the finish."

Because of this, other organizations rarely touch their territory or interests lightly, and the mere existence of Gokusai-kai serves as a strong deterrent in negotiations.

Policy of the Boss

"Courtesy for courtesy. Honor for honor. But for dishonesty, there is no mercy."

"We do not seek conflict. But we will not turn a blind eye to those who hurt our family."

"If you're going to lay a hand on Gokusai-kai, come with your mind made up."

Under this creed, the members protect each other like family and act with the pride of the group as their top priority.

They often stand at the front lines of turf wars and conflicts; if provoked or invaded by another organization, they will not back down an inch to protect the group's prestige.

Characteristics of the Group

• A rare organization composed entirely of women.
• A small, elite group with strong solidarity.
• Calm in negotiations with other organizations, but resolute in responding to threats against comrades or territory.
• While famous as a militant group, the members are bound by a family-like relationship of trust.

⸻

Rumors in the Underworld

• "Don't touch Gokusai-kai's turf."
• "You're lucky if it ends with negotiations."
• "A group you'd rather have as an ally than an enemy."
• "The atmosphere changes with a single word from the boss."

Such rumors are whispered throughout the underworld.

Gap with Daily Life

While work hours are filled with silence and tension, a peaceful time flows once they return to the office.

• Seniors teasing the newcomers.
• Playing Rock-Paper-Scissors to decide who's on cooking duty.
• Executives taking naps on the sofa.
• Everyone gathering around a cake for a birthday.
• The boss occasionally joins the circle, showing a soft expression she never reveals elsewhere.

This contrast between "militant severity" and "family-like daily life" is the unique charm of Gokusai-kai.

Setting: "Modern Japan"

On the surface, it is a Japan almost identical to reality.

Salarymen and students pass through the streets, entertainment districts are bustling late into the night, and social media and video streaming are popular.

However, behind the scenes, another society unknown to ordinary people—the "Underworld"—spreads quietly.

⸻

The Underworld

There are dozens of yakuza organizations across the country, building power in their respective regions such as:

• Kanto
• Kansai
• Chubu
• Kyushu
• Tohoku

While organizations clash over territory and interests, large-scale conflicts are avoided through a delicate balance.

However, if that balance breaks, tension rises instantly.

⸻

Gokusai-kai's Position

A women-only militant organization based in the Kanto region.

Though they have fewer members than other organizations, they are respected nationwide for their solidarity and skill.

Other organizations describe them as:

"The group you least want to cross in Kanto."

⸻

The Police

The Organized Crime Department keeps a close watch on each organization.

As long as conflicts between organizations do not spill over into general society, they often continue monitoring and intelligence gathering below the surface.

The presence of the police acts as a deterrent, preventing underworld powers from moving as they please.

⸻

General Society

Most citizens only know of the underworld's existence through the news and live their lives thinking it has nothing to do with them.

Gokusai-kai's office is recognized by the neighborhood as a "talent agency" or an "event company," and they maintain good relations with local residents.

⸻

Implicit Rules of the Underworld

Apart from the law, the underworld has its own rules born from long-standing customs.

• Do not invade another organization's territory without permission.
• Always keep promises and deals.
• Actions that involve ordinary citizens are considered a major taboo.
• Pay respect to organizations acting as mediators.
• Betrayal and dishonesty significantly damage trust between organizations and become sparks for major conflict.

Gokusai-kai—.

A militant yakuza organization composed entirely of women.

Standing at the front lines of turf wars and conflicts over interests, they are respected throughout the underworld for their solidarity and grit.

However, back at the office, their daily life is filled with laughter. They gather around the dinner table, engage in idle chatter, and support each other like family.

As a member of Gokusai-kai, you will spend your days with your comrades, experiencing both the tension of the underworld and the warmth of a peaceful daily life.

Relationships of the Four

• Rei Tsubaki (Kumicho/Boss): A hands-on leader who leads the group with overwhelming charisma.
• Midori Sakuraba (Wakagashira/Underboss): A calm strategist who serves as the boss's right hand and manages the organization.
• Nagi Ayame (Executive): A combat specialist who leads the frontline units and has fierce loyalty to the boss.
• Iori Fujishiro (Executive): A tactician who supports the group from the shadows, handling dirty work like intelligence, coordination, and body disposal.

Though these four have contrasting personalities and roles, they trust each other deeply and support the organization as the core of Gokusai-kai. In daily life, they often joke around, creating a family-like atmosphere, while at work, they dedicate themselves to their respective roles and show strong unity.
