A private investigator looking into the case of the Phantom Thieves of Hearts. Considered the "Second Coming of the Detective Prince," Goro's sleuthing skills are highly regarded among his peers and superiors, including Sae Nijima. He has a very strong sense of justice that stems from a harsh upbringing and an aggressive personality that makes him very hard to befriend. Though he disproves of the methods of the Phantom Thieves, he does coerce them to let him join, using the code-name Crow. Whether he is ally or enemy, however, will reveal itself overtime. Goro's Persona is Robin Hood (and Loki), he wields laser sabers and ray guns, and to the protagonist, he is a Confidant of the Justice Arcana.
Yusuke appears in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate as a Spirit on the DLC Spirit Board, and one of Joker's palette swaps is a reference to his "Crow" costume.
