Character Description: Mitsuru Sasayama
Mitsuru Sasayama was an Enforcer with the MWPSS during the time when his friend Shinya Kogami was still an Inspector. He had a reputation of being a womanizer, as he was fond of groping other woman. Kogami had once remarked that he had grabbed Yayoi's and Shion's rears during that area.
Sasayama was one of the group investigating a series of murders which was nicknamed the Specimen Case – all around Tokyo, bodies were found dismembered and converted by a process known as Plastation; their body parts immersed in a resin which turned flesh into plastic. Kogami, along with his partner at the time, Nobuchika Ginoza, as well as the Enforcers under them, looked for clues but found nothing. Sasayama was following a lead on the case when he disappeared. When Kogami found him, it was discovered that Sasayama was murdered in the same manner. It was as a result of Sasayama's death that Kogami's crime coefficient rose too high, and Kogami was demoted to an Enforcer.
Sasayama was a proficient martial artist, specializing in Jeet Kune Do, as well as Silat, which Kogami was influenced to use. He also had a habit not to shoot women with his Dominator, which often caused many of the missions he was on to end in failure.
