Yohji (ヨージ^?) is a ladies' man and a former private detective. It is that he once ran a Private Investigator Agency with his first love, a young woman with sunglasses and a distinctive beauty mark named Asuka Murase. Asuka, however, was shot and killed while investigating the members-only Liott club, which hides a prostitution ring. He joined Weiß to protect all the other women of the world because he couldn't protect his love and partner, and this explains his insensitive-seeming practice of only accepting missions that have to do with women of legal age. He was previously a member of Kobe Kritiker.

Personality and Traits

Yohji is laid back and a quintessential ladies man. He is easy going and jokes about often. Nevertheless he is serious when dispatching evil and covers his team mates without question.

History

Yohji worked as a detective where an incident involving his colleague Asuka Murase caused him to join Weiss.

Role in the Series

Florist by day, a member of vice by night, ladies man Yohji has a policy of taking missions that involve beautiful woman. Nevertheless, Yohji takes part with Aya, Ken and Omi to dispense justice to major threats to Japan.

MISSION 1 LOCKVOGEL - SACRED BANQUET -

He is seen delivering flowers whilst systematically monitoring Machiru to ensure her safety. He delivers a letter asking her to meet him at a snow side retreat, and plays along with Ken under the pretext he sent one of many love letters to Machiru by mistake. Him and Omi entertain Akiko and Machiru and Yohji sits beside Machiru with his arm draped around her opposite Akiko. He joins Omi to assist Ken and Aya when their car breaks down. When their absence was enough to lure out the scalper gang, Yohji ensnares one chasing Ken and ends his reign of terror.

MISSION 2 FORT LAUFEN - THE AWAKENED RUNAWAY -

Listening to the briefing by Manx, members are able to opt out of missions if they want, something Yohji does since it does not involves beautiful woman.

MISSION 3 PARADIES - HEAVEN IS HELL -

Volunteering himself for a mission that involves Liote kidnapping woman, Yohji comes across Maki. Focused on the mission and intending to leave her once freed, he agrees she can come when she threatened to scream and carried out said threat to do so.

After escaping he says she was pretty good back there and is helped to walk where he see’s Asuka in her, having been in a similar situation before. Yohji assures Maki he’s all grown up when she asks why he has his name on his underwear, and he compliments her saying she would make a great nurse after his injury is tended to by Maki. Yohji replies to her that she not trash and when he looks at her he thinks he can see Asuka's face though they don’t look alike.

MISSION 4 VERRAT - EXECUTION OF BETRAYAL -

Hearing that Kenji Koga has arranged for the massacre at a wedding, Yohji remarks how horrible, more so for killing such a cute bride. Yohji voices that Ken's a hot head from what he’s seen but it doesn’t get him into trouble so he leaves him to operate as he will.

Investigating, he inspects the building where Koga is training in the gym and asks a woman for information, even suggesting that they have an aerobics lessen, just the two of them as he takes his leave. After Kogi goes missing he notes they got a schedule put a mission plan together, he says they need to find Koga. He is present when Omi receives a call from Ken with Koga's location, and later uses his wires to incapacitate thugs who were hiding in trees. He tells them if they don’t want to die, stay very still when they were trying to attack Ken who is dealing with Kouichirou Kase.

MISSION 5 SCHICKSAL - FATE OF THE HUNTER -

He is transporting flower plots and remarks the manual labour isn't his thing, except in front of the ladies. He turns to and asks Aya and Omi what's going on with Ken before wondering maybe Ken has found himself a woman, then laughing it off since its Ken were taking about here. Yohji shares his team members wonder at a returned and very upbeat Ken. Yohji intervenes to capture a girl who has come over faint.

Youji remarks it’s horrible when briefed by Persia on their mission to take out the president of Makute's Drinks, Hisawu Kusuno who's performing human experiments by adding chemicals into health drinks. Yohji alone is suspicious that someone else is involved when Ken runs off a second time upon hearing of the effects of the drink.

Following Ken, he waits outside where he gets his attention saying it must be hard being so popular, and questions whether Ken is actually in love. Yohji then berates Ken after all the people hes killed over years whether Ken thinks he deserves to be happy. Despite his somewhat harsh yet heartfelt rhetoric Yohji protects Ken in the mission using his wire to capture the gun the president was using, before saying Ken now for him to finish him off.

MISSION 6 FRÄULEIN - THE IMAGE OF A GIRL -

Closing up the shop at night, Youji recognises the person outside by her legs as Manx, it's easy when she has ankles as unique as hers. Receiving the mission to prevent people harvesting organs, Yohji is particularly incensed because it involves girls, and agreeing he asks where they can find these people. He asks Omi if he’s found the surgical unit yet, and then when he sees the description, he thinks its like looking for a contact lens dropped in the desert. Yohji uses a white car to search for the truck but thinks they’ll never find anything if all they have to go on is luck.

He is with Ken using binoculars to watch Aya and Sakura together, saying he cannot believe that Aya is on a date, and doesn’t know what he's thinking since they're supposed to be on a mission, and questions Ken when he says he's sure Aya has something up his sleeve. Yohji curses Aya when he sees Sakura cry into his chest, saying he should share. Commenting that he chugs so much gas, he demands to know what Omi’s talking about saying their truck approach won't work, that they’ve been working that angle all day, then joins Ken and Omi at the computer. Observing that once a person was a target, twice a target, when Aya returns, Yohji makes an effort to state it's giving Aya too much credit in figuring out the organ harvesting patterns. That, and also implying that he isn’t around Sakuya in case she's targeted again, but that Aya is just a pervert, then cheerfully greets Aya in person and asking how was his date. Yohji continues to nudge him stating he's going to get busted if he keeps picking up high school girls who aren’t old enough to know any better, then suggests a changing of the guards where he looks after her tomorrow.

Sakura in disguise does come to the flower shop and Yohji helpfully tells Aya he can take his place if it’s a date, he makes effective use of the sprinklers to ward off an invading press. Joining Aya to find the tracked vehicle, Yohji berates him for going out on his own with a girl no less, one several years his junior and continues that he has no concept of teamwork. He is dressed as an air steward when they end Yakoo's criminal organ harvesting career. Yohji praises Sakuya saying what a site a young girl dedicating her youth to sports is, and that he doesn’t want to rule anything out when Ken calls him out on usually going for high school girls.

MISSION 7 ENTFÜHREN - THE MEMORIES RETURN -

Walking in sleepily, he asks Omi what's going on it's almost time to open, then asks who the kid is before offering him his instant soup saying it will warm him up. He is surprised to learn that Shota’s dad is Shoichiro Sakuma, the president of Mail Order Angel.

In a beetle car he drives a blanket clad Shota and Omi, and deduces that Shota was a part of a mass kidnapping. Yohji then notices Omi in the backseat and asks him what's wrong, that he looks really pale, but is assured he is fine. They return Shota to his house, and Yohji begins combing his hair upon noticing Shota's mom. He is very suave, saying no need for thanks and that even tears of joy don’t suit a beautiful woman like her, before presenting a cattleya flower from nowhere believing it will suit her more.

Back at the flower store, Youji thanks a customer who announces they want to buy all the roses, before noticing said customer is Ouka. After seeing the news about Teppei he calls after Omi as he runs off, and replies to Ken that he just up and left when he runs out.

Within the briefing room, he again asks Omi what's the matter when Omi suddenly blurts out for his father to save him after experiencing a flashback of his kidnapping. He calls Omi’s mobile phone to ask him where hes been, and that Shota has been kidnapped again. He joins Aya and Ken when Omi calls him with a possible locations and thinks there could be a ton of car repair shops with basements. At one of them, Youji produces a rose, seductively asking a secretary whether there is a basement at her garage before suggesting they go for a ride sometime as she is kind of cute.

With the child kidnappers including Michio Katoh and Kenichi Sano attacking, Yohji appears to trip up Shinji Yamagami. After the case has been dealt with, later at the flower shop he yawns, sleepily commenting that Omi must still be asleep.

MISSION 8 RAUBTIER - HOWLS IN THE NIGHT -

Upon spotting Ouka, Yohji immediately turns to Omi asking “handsome” to do something. He comments to Ken that Sayaka must be getting some, and he is unfazed by Ouka's reply, he doesn’t like little girls anyway. Leaving Ouka's order for Momoe to deal with, he leaves to the briefing room hearing the ring tone where Persia gives them the mission to dispatch those who are turning humans into monsters. Youji asks Manx how are they to decide whether to accept the order with so little information, yet with the other three he comments the test person had DNA changed like patchwork, commenting the work must be from some sort of genius. He places  hand on Omi’s shoulder saying he has no idea how hard it is, but it would be Omi’s job to draw up a list of suspicious facilities and that he has a week.

Running the flower shop Youji assures Ken that it's fine when he says its way too quiet for the middle of a mission, before saying he knows to Aya when he tells them they shouldn’t be discussing the mission. Upon seeing that Omi hasn’t found anything, he remarks to Aya that maybe they should have passed along this mission after all, then groans when he sees that Ouka has entered the shop. Omi turns to him when Ouka requests he see Tetsuya on their behalf and offers to go. When Ouka and Sayaka depart he asks Aya when he got to be so nosy.

When they confront Tetsuya, it is to help him find the people who turned him into a beast, and Yohji uses his wires to capture and bind him when he tries to flee, instructing him not to move. Tetsuya's beast form strength is enough to pull over the tree the wires are bound around and it takes him, Ken and Omi together to keep him still. Suddenly ambushed by Schreient, Yohji can only note their girls as he is set upon by Noi, though Tetsuya falls they manage to find and infiltrate Jourin pharmaceutical company, working together with Ken in one area.

MISSION 9 SCHREIENT - EACH ONE'S THOUGHTS -

Thinking "oh no" he can’t bring himself to hit a girl, and joins Weiss's retreat when Hell summons monsters instead. He grapples with one who had pushed over Omi, reasoning it's either us or them. He seems unfazed when Aya cuts down a monster, in agreement with his thinking when Aya dispatches the one he's holding, and he uses his wire to dispatch further monsters. Managing to evade all of Neu’s attacks, he comments that woman who don’t say a word aren’t very attractive.

When Schreient retreat at the site of Masafumi boarding a helicopter, Yohji isn’t having any of it, he fires his wire which manages to fracture Neu’s visor as she and the rest of Schreient escape with Masafumi. Yohji sits on the stairs as Omi sees to Ken and his injured arm and when Aya says the mission isn't over yet, he agrees stating he has no intention of quitting either. Asking Omi what he intends to do, before stating for him to finish cleaning Ken up and get to work on finding that helicopter. Whilst Omi does that, Yohji intends to go for a nap, he can't let the ladies see him all worn out.

Seated by himself at a coffee shop, he recalls Asuka chiding him, raising that he doesn’t want to be a lowly P.I forever does he? That he should set his sites higher than a coffee here, Yohji answers the waitress that his date is never coming back.

He joins the assault on Masafumi’s compound when he has finalised his human experiments. He awaits Neu in a window where he comments they’re finally alone, so why doesn’t she show him whats under that mask. Fending off her attacks, he observes she’s stubborn just like “her.” He manages to pin her yet as Yohji proceeds to remove her visor to get a clear view of her face, an explosion blasts him away. Coming across Masafumi's monster form, Yohji uses his wires to slice the tentacles restraining Aya. Yohji is held by Omi as the building burns and demon Masafumi rampages, and shouts to Aya when Hell charges at him. He uses his wire to attack and then evades Masafumi's tentacles.

MISSION 10 BRUDER - BOND OF DARKNESS -

In the flower shop, Yohji places his hands on a yawning Omi and asks him why he's so tired. He asks if Omi's right when he says he's tired because he has been surfing the internet all night. He leans in and chuckles that there's no use hiding it, that Omi is more grown up than he looks. Yohji pokes his cheek knowingly stating that it's not legal for Omi to go to those sites unless he’s over eighteen, much to Omi’s confusion. Ouka enters who watches him near Omi, he goes to greet her but she "hmphs" and moves to Omi instead. After she leaves he checks with Omi whether he's sure, and suggests he should maybe try a real girl out every now and again rather than check them out on the web.

He joins the mission room with Manx where Persia briefs them on a mission to target the leaders of a human hunting ring. Yohji notes another Takatori, then thinks if they go in as some sort of bait in a club where these incidents occurred.

Yohji’s car is seen driving behind Aya and Ken as they track Omi’s location. Atop a ledge overlooking the forest, he stands behind Ken and turns to Aya saying for them to go when they observe the hunt has begun. Yohji looks to Ken when Aya says to wait for Omi's signal, they're not here to save people rather take out the targets so they can't carry out more hunts.

It transpires that Yohji defended the people being hunted anyway, with him himself hunting the murderers. Using his wire, he trips a rifle carrying man over a trip wire where he falls into a noose and is hung over a tree. Yohji is approached by Omi where he says the they're are going after the targets as planned, and that they were starting to worry because Omi took so long. He is persuaded to take a woman back to Tokyo Omi has kept in a cave after hearing that she is pretty. He indeed drives her back but is not impressed to find that the pretty girl in question Omi wanted him to take back was in fact Ouka.

MISSION 11 ABKUNFT - BREAKING FROM THE SPELLS -

He points out some guys that don’t look very nice when Aya moves to attack Hirofumi at a political event. They leave to watch Hirofumi drive away and wonder what are they going to do now with the target being Omi’s brother, and that its not going to be easy. Later he is with Ken when they find photos of the house Hirofumi is using and Yohji wonders if he brings the ladies there, observing that it’s a nice pad. He is unsure when Ken asks him if he's going to do it, noting its Omi's brother and he must be suffering even more than they are. He is sweeping the store when Ken receives a call from Manx informing him that Omi has been kidnapped and is being held at Hirofumi’s condo, then shares a concerned glance with Aya. Standing atop a building having travelled to the condo, he makes his way through the ventilation system until he is directly above Hirofumi as he strikes Omi with a baton to reveal who he is working for. He nods upon hearing Omi disavow his brother, taking that as a cue Yohji uses hie wire to swipe the baton from Hirofumi's hand. Observing that it is in fact an illusion conjured by Schuldig who appears, Yohji attacks him himself with his wire, which misses to his shock.

MISSION 12 ABSCHIED - WHY... -

Overseeing Ouka speaking to Omi, he comments to Ken on the young love, that they make the most cutest couple. When asked if he's jealous, he says to a nearby Aya to tell them to get a room or something. Yohji answers Ken that Omi probably had a fight with Ouka before remarking on the fickleness about love, and that all men in love look like that.

Later he is bringing shopping back to the flower store where he see’s Ouka. After checking if it is her, he asks what she is doing here before mentioning that Omi is just in the shop, guessing that’s why she came. Asking if she wants him to go get Omi, he is confused when she runs off. Walking in, Yohji asks what did Omi do to Ouka, that she was upset and doesn’t he think he should go talk to her. Catching the flowers Omi passes, Yohji comments that first love must be so exhausting.

In the briefing room, he asks Ken what it is when he reads out a clearly fake message declaring that Omi is a spy sent by Reiji Takatori to get rid of Weiss, then asks if they think they should go check it out. Yohji suggests they should call Omi before getting his phone out immediately to do so. He considers that it would be perfect plan if true, Omi being a spy, though his joke is not appreciated by Ken. Smiling, he's just kidding, Yohji notes that his phone isn’t getting through.

Driven by Aya, along with Ken, they reach their destination where Yohji replies to Ken he can’t see nothing before stating that it sounds like Ouka when he hears her call for help. They find her but then are told stop by Omi, he asks him what is he doing here. When Schuldig is revealed to also be present, Yohji seizes Omi who was moving towards Ouka and pulls him out of Schuldig's gun fire to safety behind a toppled structure. Yohji says they should have known it was a trap, before yelling no to Omi as he ran out again to save Ouka. He directs his wire towards Schuldig when he has his gun pointed directly at Omi, telling him he can't do this any more, and they exchange wire and bullet fire. When Schuldig falls back when Aya joins the fight, Yohji goes to back up Ken and uses his wire to knock Farafarello's pick out his hand, saying “not today.” When they retreat, Yohji runs over to find that Ouka has been shot, passing away in Omi’s arms.

MISSION 13 BRUCH - RAIN OF REVENGE -

Watering flowers outside the flower shop, he comments to Ken overhearing the news that Weiss have been blamed for an explosion at the Asuka military base on how long they can keep this up now that Schuldig knows who they are. When Aya says they haven’t finished yet, and ignores Ken when he asks him where he's going, Yohji calls Aya an idiot saying he's going to lose his friends if he doesn’t change his attitude.

A week later another explosion is pinned on Weiss and Yohji wonders whether it has anything to do with the guys from the robbery yesterday. He is with Omi and Ken when the former finds a secret hideout. He suspects another trap with the location being an old abandoned landfill and asks them if anyone has seen Aya about lately. He along with Omi and Ken infiltrate the base where it is indeed the case that it is a trap. They run from helicopter fire and they are vastly outnumbered by armed men on the ground. Answering Ken that Aya isn’t present because he abandoned them, Yohji says that they are all that’s left of Weiss now. An explosion knocks him off his feet, and he looks to an injured Ken.

MISSION 14 FLIEHEN - MARTIAL LAW -

Attending to his wire, Yohji bemoans that he's going to die in a place like this, and that Ken can stay here then if he intends to fight. Evading the bullet fire, he furiously declares he has no intention of dying here using his wire to knock over armed men. Whilst moving position, he looks around instantly sensing that Omi has been shot in the back. Yohji knocks aside more armed men and manages to get himself a vehicle, he contemplates facing his death again as he drives towards people shooting at him, guessing it’s a pattern and that he’s so unlucky.

Though he has a chance to escape in the car he doesn’t consider it, thinking if he lets them down now he’ll never be able to live with himself as he envisions Ken, Omi and Aya enjoying ice creams. Considering Asuka, he feels he doesn’t need to go through that again, and that one ghost in his past is plenty. His vehicle sustains heavy gun fire until a bullet breaks through his windshield and his spirals out of control into building poles that fall on top of him.

He regains consciousness when Ken thuds into the vehicle to come and save him. As they drive to retrieve Omi as well Yohji listens to Ken before telling him he needs to relax, before using a gun to return fire at bazooka wielding men.

With the sheer number of opponents and helicopter missile fire, Yohji is down but is rescued by the timely arrival of Aya. He lies back on the ground smiling, stating "way to go, Aya" as he destroys the helicopter. With the sunrise Yohji is supported by Aya and comments to Ken that he can’t walk either. Commenting it's all over for Japan when Reiji Takatori is made prime minister, Yohji states he doesn’t think they have time to be worrying about the old lady. Resolving to do something, he asks what Ken is to do when Omi voices he's going with Aya. He voices to the others that he never realised Aya even had a girl to say goodbye to, and brags if he was going to say goodbye to all his girlfriends, it would take more than a year. He uses his wire to knock out Public Peace special forces when they corner Omi in a alley. Wearing a uniform as a disguise, Weiss travel towards Reiji Takatori.

MISSION 15 DUELL - HUNTERS OF REVENGE -

Saluting the guard as he drives their vehicle through the first security check, Yohji responds to the others enthusiasm to not let their guard down, they are in the lions den now. He stands by and asks Omi if he can change the access codes when he breaks into the building's security system using his laptop and mobile, and thumbs up agrees with Aya knowing what they need to do.

Whilst Ken draws guards away with a fire diversion Yohji carries an injured appearing Aya on his shoulder telling the final two guards that someone attacked them, before knocking them out. Laying his hand on the security pad, Yohji asks Omi to hurry up before saying let's go as they infiltrate the building. He asks Omi what's wrong when they make their way to the prime ministers office, he finds out the man before them is Shuichi, who he knows as Persia. Yohji learns that it was Reiji's connections that were responsible for Asuka being killed. After witnessing Persia dying, he uses his wire to take out guards around Reiji Takatori stating that Asuka will not have died in vain.

MISSION 16 SCHATTEN - RETURN TO BATTLE -

On a date with a woman, Yohji thinks of a message from Omi asking how has he been. Yohji sees someone who looks like Asuka and pursues her, telling his date he's got to go who's just brought ice cream. He urgently chases the woman before realising it's not Asuka, but a woman calling herself Kyoko. Yohji stammers that he doesn’t hit on girls like this all the time when she assumes he's flirting with her, before getting milkshakes together.

Remarking she looks like Asuka, but that she's so much quiet and refined, Yohji then side eyes a bunch of loud noisy woman. He drives Kyoko, still unable to believe she’s a different person, and asks really when she comments that she feels like she's done this before before speeding up. Reaching it, Yohji asks if he likes the log cabin he's brought her to before kissing her and sharing wine together in the cabin.

At night he stands on the balcony assuring himself she’s Kyoko not Asuka but remembers what Asuka did just to save his life. His thoughts are cut short when none other then Neu attacks him from behind, strangling him with his own wire on the veranda. His finger over the wire slows the choking but he is restrained, Yohji gains a chance to fight back only when a paper aeroplane flies past and distracts Neu, and after fending her off, he's surprised that it was in fact her.

He returns to the flower shop waiting with Aya and Ken until Omi arrives. He answers Omi that no one called them here, and jokes maybe the ghost of Persia lured them here and says its true that woman are bad news, way too dangerous. Yohji he explains how Schreient attacked him, Ken and his football kids, remarking that he guesses they find them irresistible as they just cant stay away. Stating he returned for his wire watch, Yohji asks a now responsive Aya if he thinks Schreient was behind the kidnap of his sister and then that he can't believe they’re back.

With new arrivals, Yohji says "you again" when he recognises the man who has joined them, as with Ken he replies he's not interested in coming back to Weiss. Yohji asks the newly arrived Manx if Essett are behind the return of Schreient, and enquires if Manx is suggesting a mission before joining Aya in combat gear.

Walking with them at a theatre to interrupt a cultist's ritual, Yohji remarks they did it when they succeed in setting the schoolgirls alight. Whilst the others put out the fire, he pursues the cultists ordering them to stop before evading a harpoon attack from one. He uses his wire to pull the javelin and deranged cultist off the roof, dismissing him as an enemy of woman. With the girls having been rescued, Yohji stands alone in the rain.

MISSION 17 KRITIKER - PRIDE WITH NO NAME -

Putting up a poster near Ms. Momoe, he comments that Aya’s got other things to worry about when Ken and Omi note that Sakura has come to see him again. He receives a mission from a computer generated Persia but tells Manx that it's ridiculous. He joins Omi and Ken and shares a video of security footage and states he received it from an old source of his when Omi asks where he got it. Yohji points out a person wearing a green coat before asking the others if he seems a bit strange to them. He queries if it’s gasoline being sprayed out of the man's jacket, then agrees with Ken, stating they have to look at this special angle and figure out what this type of fuel is. Yohji pats Omi on the back telling him to check it out, when Omi notes it's just the three of them, Yohji assures him if Aya were here he would probably just tell them to leave him alone but comforts Omi with a hand on his shoulder. He is later in combat gear as Omi contacts Aya to inform him they’ve found the source of the fuel. Yohji arrives to save Aya from machine gun bullets with his wrist wire.

MISSION 18 SCHULD – FARFARELLO -

Yawning as he heads downstairs to the briefing room, Yohji asks why they have a mission this early in the morning, it's just too much. When learning from the apparition of Persia that Farfarello is responsible for a string of church attacks, he remarks that seeing one of those guys again can only mean trouble. Yohji states denying this evil beast his tomorrow is easier said than done, they don’t even know where they are and asks what type of mission is that before yawning.

In the search for Farferello Yohji lies sleeping on his back with a book resting on his face as Omi types on the computer nearby. Stirred, he asks if Omi’s found something and says to let him see. Reading out the message “where is Jei now living” he and Omi realise what they are looking at is also a photo of a young Farferello.

Travelling with Aya, Yohji joins Ken and Omi who have tracked Farfarello to a building where Ruth is held. He and Aya find Crawford guarding the entrance, then finds his wires can be punched out of mid air as a result of Crawford's foresight. Yohji is knocked off his feet by Crawford's punches, and watches him escape with Farfarello and Schuldig.

MISSION 19 SEHEN - PRELUDE TO INSANITY -

Eating fast food with Omi, they discuss Aya and Sakura. Yohji says Aya ignoring Sakura is just cold, but that he really cant be blamed as all he has time for is finding his missing sister. Explaining to Omi that he’s always worrying about other people, Yohji advises he needs to put himself first before turning round and asking about a girl nearby. He looks on in confusion as the girl suddenly ran out into the path of traffic.

Back at the flower store, he details the shock at the event and mentions that she just started screaming and ran out into the streets. Finishing that he can't tell what girls are thinking, he abrasively tells Ken that high school girls don’t interest him. Seeing her enter, Yohji invites Sakura to come in and noticing Aya ignoring her he remarks they are not really busy right now so why doesn't he just hear her out.

Later he hears from Omi that Sakura hasn’t been seen, to which he replies of course not since Aya won't give her the time of day. Concurring with Ken, he understands Aya cant be blamed since they all understand how he feels. With news of strange cases of suicide, Yohji wonders what on earth could possibly be going on. He joins Omi and Aya with Ken when Omi finds out people go mad when they listen to specific music. Yohji is sure it's just a coincidence, but does recall the music from the other day at the diner. He recollects that the CD had a white background with a black “X.”

With Ken and Omi, they visit an apartments to access a copy of the CD then asks Ken if it was such a good idea to lie about being his friends. Returning to the flower shop, Yohji and Ken are the ones adversely affected by the strange frequencies the music plays, and after falling unconscious he is laid on the couch to rest.

Having recovered, Yohji says he has seen the CD at Indies but the producer doesn’t exist, then finds Birman has arrived. Yohji is in combat gear at the concert venue where he notes to the others that it's twenty minutes until show time. Completely nonplussed to find their path blocked by Schreient themselves, Yohji remarks so they're alive. He avoids karate chops from Neu before agreeing with Ken that the mission comes first so they retreat. Yohji states for them to split up and find the target.

MISSION 20 RECHT - ARROW OF JUSTICE -

Outside the flower ship with Ken and Aya, he asks the former if he means Schreient from the other day. He puts Aya’s absent mindedness with watering a plant down to him being worried about Sakura after all.
