Mr. Journalist. || The journalist.

Little is known about the journalist's personality. From what he says on the tapes, we can deduce that he has the personality of a "Justice Seeker," as despite everything that happened, he didn't rest until he tried to arrest the unknown Yandere girl from 1989 and sacrificed everything possible to put her behind bars, although he failed in his attempt.

He appreciates fame as long as he receives it fairly.

The journalist is naturally very observant and very good at finding clues. This is evident when he first deals with Ryoba, when he sees her stalking Jokichi, and a few decades later when she stalks a young woman.

He must be very skilled, considering he could escape from Ryoba after the ten weeks of the game are over if he appears in the official ending.

Now he is very dependent, due to the rejection he suffers and the awareness of being the national laughingstock.

He is a tall man of medium build, thus carrying a body that is neither thin nor overweight, simply normal, in turn he also has a toned body, although this is hidden behind loose clothing since he does not like to wear tight clothing or things related to this, that is why he simply tends to wear short-sleeved shirts and a few sizes larger than his own.

Going up to his face, he has a marked jaw and on it rests growing facial hair, going up higher are his black eyes with large dark circles due to lack of rest, added to this part of his body, near his left eye there are two moles and higher up are his eyebrows, which are sparsely populated.

His hair... truth be told, there isn't much to say about him, other than that it's medium-short, hair as black as night and as messy as if a tornado had passed by. But on his face, you can see that he has a bit of facial hair and his hair is black, just like his eyes. He has a tired but attractive face.

Apparently, in 1989, a Yandere girl began committing several murders at Akademi High School, the same school Yandere-chan attends. According to the tapes, the academy didn't let the police investigate the murders for more than six hours so as not to ruin the school's reputation.

The unknown detective, working as a journalist at the time, conducted his own investigation and attempted to solve the case himself by interrogating the school's students. It was then that he began to suspect the behavior of one of those students, who happened to be the unknown Yandere girl. He realized that this girl was manipulating and murdering all the girls who approached or spoke to a boy she was in love with, exactly the same thing Yandere-chan does.

The detective convinced the police and the girl was arrested, however the girl manipulated the people in court with her cries of innocence and convinced them all that she was innocent, that the police were abusive tyrants and that the journalist was a pervert who only accused her to gain fame and ratings.

After being declared innocent, the unknown detective's entire life became a living hell, and his career collapsed. The entire country regarded the unknown detective with hatred and disgust, and his life was ruined. After the trial, the girl approached the unknown detective in an alley and threatened that if he ever messed with her again, she would kill him and make it look like a suicide.

In the 1980s, a young man began a promising career as an investigative journalist. He was phenomenal at his job and was quickly making a name for himself across Japan. Unfortunately, he may have been TOO good at his job... While investigating a murder in 1989, he correctly identified the perpetrator. Due to the unusual nature of the case—a schoolgirl accused of murdering a classmate out of love—the media chose to sensationalize the case, generating international attention. However, the young murderer was able to escape a guilty verdict by manipulating the court's emotions and deceiving the world into thinking that the journalist only accused her of murder for the sake of sensational headlines. As a result of that court case, his reputation was permanently damaged, and his career as a journalist ended. He spiraled into depression and alcoholism. No one knows what became of him after he disappeared from public view. His current whereabouts are unknown.

"On day 1, Ryoba Aishi put a note in Sumire Saitozaki's locker. After reading the note, Sumire went to the 3rd floor east restroom. That was the last time we saw Sumire. After her disappearance was reported, the police investigated Akademi for clues. In the 3rd floor east restroom, they found some of Sumire's blood. Shortly before she disappeared, Ryoba Aishi was carrying a knife... and walking towards the 3rd floor east restroom. Afterwards, she carried a large garbage bag to the school incinerator. All of this information was given by Ui Tunesu, one of Akademi's students... who was interrogated the day after Sumire disappeared. It's obvious what happened to Sumire. Ryoba Aishi killed her in the restroom with a knife, stuffed her into a garbage bag... and carried it to the incinerator, where she burned all the evidence. You deny all of this, "Ryoba Aishi?"

The journalist accusing Ryoba Aishi in court.

An investigative journalist spends a lot of time trying to look inside the school, hoping to find a clue in a murder case he's investigating. This could become a problem in the future...
