Namikawa is the Vice President of Sales at Yotsuba, the "most talented" of the board members who has the potential to "make it to the top" without Kira. However, he shows no noticeable qualms with partaking in the murder of Yotsuba's competitors, and sides with Kira until contacted directly by L. One of Namikawa's most notable features is his intelligence. 30 years old.
