Profile[]
Appearance[]
Sugai is an old man with gray hair standing at average height.
Attire[]
Sugai wears a dark-gray pinstriped suit over a dark purple shirt, red striped tie, dark-gray matching pants and a pair of dark-gray dress shoes.
Personality[]
Sugai is a cunning and vigilant man, apparently having seen the potential in setting fire to Little Asia to profit from. He also seems to revel in having power over others, likely due to his belief of being overlooked in the Tojo Clan in the past. This is shown when he kidnaps Takumi Someya's estranged wife, Kiyomi Kasahara, to force Someya to fight Kiryu to the death in Millennium Tower, and when he (along with Tsuneo Iwami), forces Kiryu to stay still to allow Sugai to beat him to death with a steel pipe while Iwami's men hold Haruka and Haruto at gunpoint.
Background[]
Despite being in service since the time of the Tojo Clan's second chairman, Sugai had not made much of a mark. He only served as advisor to sixth chairman Daigo Dojima in name alone.
Involvement[]
Yakuza 6: 2015-2016[]
In 2015, Sugai becomes part of a pact between Tsuneo Iwami and the Saio Triad's leader Big Lo that enables the triad to build their base in the remains of Little Asia and spread across Kamurocho. He also consents to a fake war between the Saio Triad and the Tojo Clan to remove Daigo from his position. They commit arson on Little Asia and watch the fire from a suite in Kamurocho Hills and pin the blame on Daigo and Majima, leading to their arrests.
By December 2016, he is the Acting Chairman of the Tojo Clan with Someya by his side. Kazuma Kiryu visits them to ask if they were involved in Haruka's hit-and-run, which they deny. Before leaving, he gives them a stern warning. When Kiryu's intention to kill Sugai and Tsuneo becomes known, they kidnap Kiyomi Kasahara and blackmail Someya to kill Kiryu, and leave Kamurocho. They watch Someya and Kiryu fight via video, and when Someya fails to kill Kiryu, he stabs himself to protect Kiyomi. Tsuneo still orders Kiyomi's death and the two of them leave to allow Kanji Koshimizu to shoot her, not knowing of his intentions to betray them.
Sugai later appears with Tsuneo at the Iwami shipyard during Heizo Iwami's funeral. When Kiryu and Tsuyoshi Nagumo arrive to take them down, they reveal Haruka and Haruto as hostages, immobilizing them. Sugai brutally attacks Kiryu with a steel pipe, but is cornered by the Hirose Family. After Tsuneo's defeat, Sugai produces a pistol to shoot the hostages after being ordered to kill them, but his shots are intercepted by Kiryu. Cornered by Kiryu's allies, Sugai uses his last bullet to commit suicide.
