Takaaki Kazamoto

A young but well respected executive of the Awakusu yakuza group. Kazamoto is described as having the eyes of a serpent and is incredibly skilled at investigation. As such, Kazamoto is usually the one placed in charge of searching for specific individuals (such as the case with Ruri Hijiribe ) or digging up dirt on others. He was also placed in charge of locating Yodogiri Jinnai until the search ended with many of his subordinates getting killed. He was then placed in charge of the search for Akane Awakusu when she ran away from home. Like many of the other Awakusu executives, he is a fan of Ruri Hijiribe.
