Ichiban Kasuga, the protagonist ofLike A Dragon: Infinite Wealth, isn’t just a kind person in word, but in deed too. He’ll always try to help someone in need if he can and give them support, no matter what their situation.

It’s his heart of gold that leads him from person to person in Hawaii, though it’s not always as simple as just handling a fetch-quest like in the RPG games he played as a kid. Some of the folks he runs into have some serious problems, but that doesn’t stop Kasuga from reaching out and offering a hand to them.
