Taiga Saejima joined the yakuza and became sworn brothers with Goro Majima.
He was supposed to do a hit in 1985 on a rival gang with Saejima.
Majima didn't show, so he carried out the hit alone, shooting eighteen Ueno Seiwa clan members himself.
He was sentenced to death in 2010, but he escaped and discovered that he was framed. He was given guns with rubber bullets and didn't actually kill anyone.
After his vindication, he was given his own family in the Tojo Clan.
