Yūichi Haga

Yūichi Haga, also known as Yu-Ichi, is a member of the Spookies.
==Appearances==
*Devil Summoner: Soul Hackers
==Personality==
Youthful and friendly, he can sometimes be viewed as annoying by others. Six tends to yell at him, seeing him as childish and clumsy. Despite his cheerfulness, he is more sensitive than he appears.
==Profile==
Even though Six is a year younger than Yu-Ichi, he treats him like a child most of the time. As the only one in the group without a codename, Yu-Ichi is quick to point out that his name is "cooler" than any nickname. He grew up in a wealthy family and is a single child, making him wish he had a sibling.
He gets into an argument with Six at the Leon Automotive Plant, where Six tells him to get his act together and stop being a klutz, causing him to leave the facility. When he arrives back at HQ, he reads Finnegan's post on Summoner Net and, in order to prove himself, heads for Amami Float. He is subsequently captured by Finnegan and loses his hat, which is later found by the protagonist.
After the battle against Finnegan, they find Yu-Ichi safe and sound. However, he is acting strange and far less emotional than usual, not caring that Six is insulting him or when Spooky is trying to advise him not to act recklessly. He goes home after the incident.
He later follows the Spookies to Algon Microelectronics. After Lunch and Spooky crack the main computer's defenses, they discover the true purpose of the Krypto Chip installed in every computer in Amami City is to collect souls for Manitou. Luckily, Lunch replaced the Krypto Chip inside their trailer's computer with the prototype he stole from his father earlier in the game.
Yu-Ichi later devises a plan to reveal their new-found knowledge to Amami City via Algon's news network. This backfires, leading to every member of the group save for Spooky and Hitomi being branded as hacker terrorists. Yu-Ichi comes to the conclusion that Spooky is a traitor and ratted them out, citing Kadokura's congratulatory message to Spooky as additional proof. Yu-Ichi, Six, and Lunch then leave Spooky, with the option for the protagonist to do the same.
After Malsum is defeated, it is revealed that Yu-Ichi was brainwashed to secretly work for the Phantom Society as their messenger and was the real traitor. He is kept under watch by Rei Reiho while the protagonist and Nemissa head off to the Amami Monolith to rescue the others. In a New Game Plus on the PlayStation/3DS versions, if the correct choices were made to save Spooky, Rei and Yu-Ichi later head to the Amami Monolith where they recover him from the roof.
At the end of the game, Yu-Ichi leaves the Spookies and vows to become a "super hacker" like Spooky was, and Six supports Yu-Ichi, showing their rivalry has somewhat cooled.
