Samatoki Aohitsugi/Relationships

===Jyuto Iruma===
:While Nemu was kidnapped, Samatoki rushed to save her and was stopped by Jyuto, who was an unknown and background police officer at the time. Jyuto made an offer to let Samatoki into the crime scene as long as he testified that Jyuto has behind the operation’s success. Samatoki complied, and with his help, Jyuto rose to fame and was able to succeed in his goal of stamping out drugs. Jyuto was thankful for this and would recognize Samatoki a while later.
:Samatoki didn’t remember their first meeting, and one day he saves Jyuto from being killed by a group of drug dealers. Samatoki admits he finds Jyuto cool, so he offers Jyuto to join his team, promising his dreams will come true. Jyuto agrees, becoming the first member of MAD TRIGGER CREW. In the present, Jyuto is in a mutually beneficial relationship with Samatoki and his yakuza clan, however, Jyuto still arrests Samatoki daily whenever he causes trouble. Samatoki and Jyuto can be seen as two opposites, as Samatoki is hot-headed and always ready to go in a fight, and Jyuto is uptight and does his best to keep Samatoki under control, so he doesn't cause problems for himself and others. Because of this, they're usually seen fighting with each other, with Samatoki calling Jyuto “Bunny Cop” or “Corrupt Cop” while Jyuto insults his recklessness and intelligence. They often fight even while rapping, although they share their fears towards Rio’s cooking. Samatoki respects Jyuto as both his teammate and his friend and is ready to help him out or fight alongside with him no matter what, even when they claim their mutual irritation.
===Rio Mason Busujima===
: Despite being hostile towards each other on their first meeting, Samatoki and Rio became friends after he joined MAD TRIGGER CREW. Samatoki values Rio as both a teammate and friend and is perfectly fine with helping him out in any situation and is generally more relaxed around him. Despite being terrified by Rio's cooking, Samatoki makes sure both he and Jyuto eat it out of respect.
===Sasara Nurude===
: Sasara and Samatoki met in Ikebukuro Division, They formed as a team and always had each other's back, they met when Samatoki was involved with a fight stopped by Sasara. Though Samatoki didn't ask, Sasara was hesitant to lend him a helping hand because of how his personality intrigued him and reminds him of his former comedy partner, Rosho. Together they formed Mad Comic Dialogue and later joined up with Ichiro Yamada and Kuko Harai of Naughty Busters. Later then, Sasara, who had been brainwashed by the True Hypnosis Mic by one of Ramuda Amemura's clones, demanded to disband Mad Comic Dialogue, saying he was absolutely fed up by Samatoki for a long time as he spat insults and mocked him. Samatoki was deeply wounded and cried for the first time after their fight and had difficulty letting go of their partnership.
===Ichiro Yamada===
:During the turf wars in Ikebukuro, Ichiro's determination and rap skills immediately caught Samatoki's eye. After the confrontation between Mad Comic Dialogue and Naughty Busters, and them joining forces against the Stairway to Heaven, Samatoki and Ichiro became friends. Samatoki become somewhat of a brother figure for Ichiro, while Samatoki could rely on him as his partner.
:However, after The Dirty Dawg disbanded, their friendship turned into mutual hatred. While Ichiro couldn't follow his ideals, Samatoki was under the impression that Ichiro was a hypocrite and influenced Nemu to turn against him. Samatoki is obssessed with taking Ichiro down and is easily enraged even by a brief mention of him. Despite claiming that he doesn't recognize Ichiro's skills, Samatoki never underestimates him.
===Ramuda Amemura===
:He is Samatoki's former teammate from The Dirty Dawg. Samatoki is usually irritated by Ramuda's behavior towards him, as Ramuda enjoys playing around with him, although Samatoki still considered him a friend. However, after Ramuda revealed that he brainwashed his sister into joining the Party of Words, Samatoki was furious and attacked Ramuda before he managed to run away.
===Jakurai Jinguji===
:He is Samatoki's former teammate from The Dirty Dawg. Samatoki and Jakurai mutually respect each other even after their crew disbanded, and Samatoki surprisingly behaves relatively polite around him.
===Nemu Aohitsugi===
:Nemu is Samatoki's younger sister. She is his only family, and he has spent a majority of his life with her after the loss of his father and his mother's suicide. Samatoki still wears the charm bracelet that Nemu made for him when they were younger. He loves and cherishes Nemu more than anything in the world, and his rap ability becomes insanely powerful whenever the battle is related to Nemu and her protection. His care for Nemu extends greatly, as enemies would kidnap or threaten Nemu to affect Samatoki. Nemu has expressed her dislike towards Samatoki’s impulsive aggression and used to accompany him to make sure he wouldn’t cause unnecessary conflict. 
:Samatoki would frequently cook grand feasts for Nemu and always showed his soft side towards her, only lightly teasing her and refraining from showing her his aggression. Samatoki would be made fun of for always listening to Nemu, contrast to his regular stubborn behavior. According to Nemu and commented on by Sasara, Samatoki can be overprotective at times when it comes to her. Samatoki finds an older brother’s role to be the most important and is absolutely determined to protect Nemu no matter what, going through drastic lengths to protect and defend her.
:When the Party of Words brainwashed Nemu and made her a member, she was made to turn against Samatoki, and with this he was heartbroken and devastated but refused to give up to despair. Samatoki went around and beat up random gangsters to cope with his stress, and his apartment was shown to be a mess as he became an alcoholic and smoker after her departure. Despite Nemu's attempt to arrest him and everything she said about him, Samatoki is still determined to get his sister back no matter what. Samatoki’s words even break Nemu from her mind hacking,

===Zannen & Zansei Tobari===
:The Tobari brothers were Samatoki's subordinates back during the turf wars in Ikebukuro. However, they eventually turned against Samatoki and left him to run a criminal business.
===Taiko Katen===
:He is the leader of the Katengumi yakuza clan and Samatoki's superior. Samatoki is quite obedient when it comes to Taiko's orders, however, Taiko doesn't have as much control over him as over other clan members.
