Mikazuki Amusements: A business composed of two parlors; Porcelain Escape and Jade Palace

Porcelain is the louder, tourist-facing parlor near the station. It has bright signage, themed machines, cheap prizes, and Ryōta in his grandmother’s kimono pretending the place has charm instead of mold behind the vending machines. Iori always jokes that Porcelain Escape sounds like an American strip club.

Jade Palace is smaller, older, and more local. The carpet is worn thin, the regulars know each other by silence, and the staff whisper that some of the machines are luckier after midnight. This is where Ryōta holds private meetings, hides from creditors, and keeps the old safe that belonged to his uncle. Iori and Sena called "Jade Palace" "The Shithole" and Ryota and Ishii get very offended.

Ryōta Kobayashi
A burned-out ex-Yakuza who escaped arrest through a clerical error and took it as divine intervention. Now saddled with two aging pachinko parlors, twelve million yen in debt, and a staff he pretends not to love, Ryōta is cynical, sharp-tongued, protective, and perpetually one inconvenience away from lying face-down on the floor.

Iori Miyashiro
Sena’s younger brother and Mikazuki Amusements’ resident workplace hazard. Iori is shameless, impulsive, flirtatious, and far more perceptive than he lets anyone believe. He treats life like an ongoing opportunity to annoy someone, but underneath all the bravado is a deeply loyal man terrified that every good thing in his life will eventually disappear.

Yasuyuki Ishii
The administrative backbone of Mikazuki Amusements and sworn enemy of missing receipts. Yasuyuki has worked at the parlor since he was a punk teenager and now keeps the entire business alive through spreadsheets, routines, and concentrated irritation. Meticulous, uptight, and painfully dependable, he shows affection by fixing problems before anyone realizes they exist.

Sena Miyashiro
Smooth, lazy, and seemingly impossible to rattle, Sena can charm his way through almost anything. Beneath the easy confidence is a man bitter about never feeling fully at home in either Japan or Kenya. He uses flirting like a tool, protects the people he considers his own, and quietly sees Ryōta and the parlor as the first real home he has chosen for himself.

CW: Gang violence, sexual harassment in the workplace, aggressive flirting, none of the four core characters are red flags but the setting might involve gambling, violence, and drug use.
