• Akio Touma - This guy forms the third prong of the Yamaguchi-gumi triangle to which Masahiko and Izo seem to belong. He's a joker, but he's fearless. That combination of qualities makes for appealing company -- even if he does have obnoxious taste in music.

• Yisa Taimiev (REVERSED) - She came into Izo's place of work and violently attacked one of its patrons, a fellow member of the Yamaguchi-gumi. She also slapped Izo and, when that didn't produce the desired result, punched him hard enough to draw blood. Both of those things are pretty straightforward. Not much else about the confrontation was.

...As far as Izo can tell, this person is always angry.

• Masahiko Irie - Masahiko Irie appears to be the only contact in Sumaru that Izo had upon his arrival, after being quite suddenly torn from his life in Tokyo -- and even then it was a month before the two met in person. The teen is his junior in years, but also apparently his peer, and -- more privately -- also his superior; Iriesama has decided that Irie-san is responsible for educating Izo about the sudden, strange turn that his life has taken. Whether that burden will bear fruit or merely prove a nuisance to one or both of them is still probably very much up in the air.

• Mariko Ohmukai (REVERSED) - A bit early to tell, but possibly more than meets the eye -- which is really saying something, actually, because Mariko doesn't dress to leave much to the imagination.

She also bought him food. It helped.

• Thora Kobayashi - She hangs around with Masahiko, but she doesn't like Yakuza, which makes her angle something of a puzzle for Izo. Still, she seems alright. She assaulted him in an alley to see whether or not he was 'worthy.' He lost the fight, which probably means the answer to that question is 'no,' but he didn't ask to find out for sure.

There'll be a next time, though. She can count on it.
