Character history
Toshiko Kasen was born and raised in Japan, where she met her future husband Kazuki Kasen, later moving to Liberty City in the United States with her husband, who became the leader of the Yakuza in the city. Kazuki, however, preferred to spend his time with his men than with Toshiko who, feeling neglected, hires Leone Family made man Toni Cipriani to ruin and humiliate her husband after he destroys a Yakuza tank. She first has him steal a Yakuza munitions delivery, taking them to Phil Cassidy at a small dock in Rockford/Aspatria. Toshiko, happy that her husband is irate, hires Toni to destroy money being moved from Kazuki's casino before taking her to an opera at the Fort Staunton Opera House, with Toni rescuing her from a Forelli Family ambush. Toshiko, having humiliated her husband and shown her allegiances, has Toni kill her husband. Toshiko, free of her husband, becomes depressed and releases her pet canary into the wild. Toshiko, wanting to be "truly free" commits suicide by falling out of her apartment window and falling on to a car below.
Trivia
- Despite her holding a gun in the concept art, she appears a very peaceful and tranquil woman in the game, even letting her pet canary out of its cage to fly away into Liberty City before committing suicide herself.
- She speaks in a radically stereotypical Japanese accent, in which she pronounces every "L" as if it were "R".
