[Background]

[Personality]
Fresh out of university, Youji decided to become a freelance detective. He and his partner Asuka Murase, whom he was in love with though never let on, started a private investigation agency. When Youji was about twenty, they took a case in case investigating Riot, a prostitution ring. Unfortunately, they were found out and Youji was left shot four times in the chest. Youji told Asuka to leave him and make a run for it but was cut down in the street in front of his eyes, presumably killed in front of him.

He was found by a woman, codenamed Manx, who worked not only with the police but also with a secret, quasi-government organization called Kritiker, which oversaw an investigation and assassination group known as Weiß. Seeing that he would be able to do what the law could not by punishing powerful people with death when they eluded the police and court systems around the world, he joined up under the codename Balinese. Filled with pent up rage over the treatment he saw of women and his loss of Asuka, Youji realized he could now take revenge for them by accepting missions aimed at murderers and rapists of women.

Though Weiß is a secret organization, the members of the group have 'day jobs' at a florist shop called Koneko no Sumu Ie (translated to House of Kittens, it pokes fun at their codenames, all of which are names of cat breeds).

Two years later, after the addition of the fourth member of Weiß, Fujimiya Aya, a mission came up to once more tackle Riot. Youji immediately took the case and met a woman named Maki that reminded him physically of Asuka. With the help of his teammates, he was able to rid the world of Riot, but in the process, he nearly got Maki killed.

Not long after, Weiß was met by a female assassin group, Schreient. Youji had difficult meeting them in combat due to his code to protect women from harm. During one of their skirmishes, a member of Schreient known as Neu was injured and her mask broke. Though Maki looked similar to Asuka, Neu was the woman's clone and Youji immediately believed her to be his long thought dead love. He nursed the injured woman back to health despite the reluctance of his team. He desperately tried to make Neu remember Asuka's memories, thinking that she had not died in front of him but was only gravely injured and brainwashed by her new employer.

Unfortunately, Youji's obsession nearly got his entire team and himself killed with Neu revealed that she had been acting to get information for Schreient. Youji was forced to fight Neu and she confessed that she loved her employer, Masafumi, and no one else. Youji ended the fight by strangling Neu to death with a garrotte wire, seemingly both out of jealousy and a need to finish his mission while protecting his team.

After nearly dying at the hands of a super powered team of body guards called Schwarz, Youji traveled with Weiß across the globe at the direction of Persia, their liaison and mission giver. At each step of the way, Youji was offered redemption in the arms of a woman only to have that woman die or be seriously injured, usually because of him. He became more jaded and shallow as a result.

While in Kyoto on another mission, Youji learned just what his depression and guilt of becoming a murderer had done to him when he started sleep-strangling his one night stands.

[Specialties/Abilities]
Youji is extremely agile, fast on his feet, and silent when he wants to be. Despite his constant drinking, he doesn't seem to have any nervous ticks that might make his job as an assassin difficult. He speaks Japanese and English fluently and is conversational in German. He is also accomplished at picking locks.

Youji can use guns but his weapon of choice is the harigane -- a monofilament wire that he keeps spooled inside of his watch. He is strong enough to string targets up with it, keep them entangled, and strangle them to death silently.

He is also mildly capable of hacking computer systems.

[Fighting]
Youji is an incredibly agile and capable fighter but that said, he's still just human. He can be hurt and injured.
