Tokyo

Tokyo is the capital city of Japan.

1900s-1988
Saikou Corp is established in the late 1940s by Saisho Saikou, a year after the end of World War Two. Saikou corp grows to become Japan's biggest conglomerate, as of 2019.

In the 1960s, The Journalist is born.

In the 1980s, The Journalist begins his career, and moves to Buraza Town (which is a town next to Tokyo) mid-decade.

In 1985, Saisho Saikou opens Akademi High School in Buraza Town.

1989
In 1989, The Ryoba Aishi Court Case begins. Ryoba convinces everyone, including James Smith, that she is innocent and The Journalist only prosecuted her for fame. James attempts to kill him, but backs out at the last moment.

2019
Saikou Corp is still funding Akademi High. Several rumors have floated around about why, but none have been correct. Saikou Corp's current intentions are still hidden from the public, and it is likely that (without someone leaking the information) it will remain so.
