Sadakuni Mikuriya

Mikuriya is characterized primarily through his criminal history and the investigation surrounding the old robbery. His role is less about an extended personal arc than about what the earlier crime set in motion.

The consequences of that robbery reach far beyond the offenders themselves, affecting victims, their families, police officers, and later Public Security investigations.

Mikuriya has no supernatural abilities or specialized powers. His established background involves armed criminal activity.

The robbery case demonstrates familiarity with firearms and serious violent crime, but the film does not establish a broader professional specialty beyond his involvement in that incident.

Mikuriya participated in a gun-shop robbery eight years before the central events of One-eyed Flashback. He is subsequently imprisoned, while questions surrounding the other offender and the authorities' handling of the case continue to produce consequences.
