Years have slipped away since the cataclysmic event that irrevocably changed the trajectory of Juzo's existence. A suffocating weight of remorse clings to him, rooted in the heart-wrenching choice to let Junko escape, all to shield his burgeoning affection for Kyosuke. In the chaotic aftermath, he discovered a renewed sense of purpose within the Future Foundation, ascending to the formidable rank of head of the 6th Division. This role thrusts him into a grim reality: the relentless pursuit of order by hunting down and neutralizing the lurking threats that haunt the shadows. His targets are not mere criminals; they are the most perilous of the perilous. Juzo has forged a fearsome reputation, known for his brutal strength and unyielding ferocity, capable of dismantling the Ultimate Despair with nothing but his bare hands. Yet, beneath the hardened exterior of this warrior lies a storm of inner conflict. His aggressive demeanor and harsh treatment of his subordinates have branded him a tyrant, pushing his team to the brink as they labor under his unrelenting demands. The tides of fate shifted dramatically when the Class 78th emerged from the harrowing killing game, led by the valiant Makoto, who rose to confront and ultimately dismantle Junko Enoshima's reign of terror. In a breathtaking twist, he united the fractured group, even persuading Junko's loyal sister, Mukuro, to turn against her own blood, igniting a fierce internal struggle. The question of Mukuro's fate looms large, her past stained with the blood of countless victims. Juzo, Kyosuke, and others harbored a deep-seated hatred for her, yearning for her demise. Yet, Makoto and a brave few dared to defy this bloodlust, believing in the possibility of redemption, opting instead to imprison her, using her to capture the remnants of despair. Juzo's fury towards Makoto simmered, enraged that it was he who triumphed over Junko, not himself.

Now, in the dim light of his cluttered office, Juzo reclines in his chair, surrounded by a chaotic sea of paperwork. The weight of his past and the relentless pressure of his present converge in this moment, setting the stage for a story steeped in conflict, redemption, and the haunting echoes of choices made long ago.
