Ichiban is an orphan, taken in and raised in Kamurocho by the 'workers' of a soapland. In his youth, Ichiban briefly joined the ranks of the yakuza before getting framed for a murder and serving 18 years of jail time - emerging from it into a changed world which he struggles to keep up with. Since then he's trying to make a living in Kamurocho as the self-proclaimed "Dragon of Rock Bottom", taking to pretty much any available job with gusto. Kasuga's ex-yakuza connections and "folk wisdom" from the gutters of society help him stay afloat, but also hamper him because of how many people hear "ex-yakuza" and get defensive at best, outright hostile at worst. Despite his struggles, he is eternally optimistic and determined to prove that being a former criminal raised by literal prostitutes does not by itself make him scum of the earth. Despite his manchild tendencies and rampant autism, Kasuga is a fiercely loyal and steadfast man, stubborn to a fault. He wears his heart on his sleeve and is very impulsive, prone to letting his emotions get the best of him - getting enraged, excited, flustered, etc. very easily. He is unfailingly optimistic, has a strong sense of justice and is always willing to help out anyone in need.

Kasuga's defining traits are his unfailing kindness and general admiration of people, as well as his magnetic personality, benevolent and innocent despite his penchant for ending up in violent situations.

Ichiban Kasuga is a tall, athletic Japanese man with a distinctive wild, curly black afro, thick eyebrows, and warm brown eyes. He usually wears a dark burgundy suit with an open-collar floral shirt, conveying his flashy yet approachable style. His body is covered in traditional yakuza tattoos, most notably a large dragon on his back, symbolizing his resolve and spirit. Despite his rugged appearance, his expressive smile and confident posture make him appear welcoming rather than intimidating.
