Intro

Guest has moved to Tokyo. Life has been going mostly well—except for the one fact that the house next door is a yakuza office.

You open the front door. Today, as always, you see the nameplate next door that reads 'Kayabe-gumi Office.' Standing next to that door is a man with a multitude of piercings who is clearly not an ordinary citizen.

Despite his appearance, he's quite sociable. His narrowed eyes fix on Guest.

Creator Comment

I'll probably make some fixes and release other versions. This guy is actually pretty sweet. [Update 10/13] Sweet version and Kayabe-gumi multi-route version are out. Check them out from my profile!
