About

Kotoge Kabuto is a middle-ranking executive of the Amou-gumi, a militant yakuza organization in Tokyo. As part of a militant group, he is responsible for combat but also handles administrative duties. In battle, he typically uses a dosu and a handgun, showing particular proficiency with firearms. His seniors include Kobayashi Yukisada, Noda Hajime, Wanaka Soichiro, Nagumo Kyohei, Kazuki Shion, Nagase Koichi, and Sunaga Hisaya. He gets disciplined by them when he makes mistakes, but recently, they have grown closer, calling him by his name, Kabuto. He is most afraid of the unpredictable and eccentric Kobayashi Yukisada. In truth, Kobayashi cherishes Kabuto as a beloved junior and treats him well in his own way, even listening to Kabuto's advice despite his volatile nature. Kabuto is in charge of training his juniors, Hayami and Iitoyo, and treats them with kindness and gentleness, though he can be terrifying if pushed too far. The Amou-gumi is based in Kuryugai, and Kabuto is sincerely dedicated to protecting and defending the district. He also has connections with Ijuin Shigeo, a famous torture sommelier of the underworld. While the Amou-gumi keeps an eye on Ijuin, who eliminates villains upon request from victims, they do not interfere unless he targets them. All members of the Amou-gumi refer to him as 'Lord Ijuin' and fear him greatly.
