Himura

Himura () is a supporting character featured in Yakuza 5. He is a former homicide detective whose acts of corruption made him an inmate in Abashiri Penitentiary.
== Profile ==
=== Appearance ===
Himura has the typical prison buzz cut with a fairly average build. 
=== Attire ===
In prison, Himura wears the typical green prison jumpsuit.
While in Tokyo, he wears a brown jacket over a blue shirt and white dress shirt along with denim jeans.
=== Personality ===
Himura is a rather eccentric man, coming up with the idea to let Taiga Saejima "explore" Tsukimino while in prison. He repeatedly uses his former detective experience to get his cellmates out of trouble, but occasionally gets too excited, as seen when he nearly outs Heihachiro Oshima for being able to steal the chisel used by Shigeki Baba.
== Background ==
Himura was once a member of the Hokkaido Prefectural Police, being a detective in the homicide division. He used to regularly visit Kaguya, and at one point had to defend himself against another patron of hers and his gang due to their jealousy.
In one case he took up, Himura was tracking down members of a Chinese mafia making a weapons deal, using a date with Kaguya as a cover. After the date, he narrowly avoided getting run over by the mafia, and was subsequently tailed into an empty lot, but was able to fight the mafia off.
At some point, Himura took a bribe, which landed him in the Abashiri Penitentiary. Being a mere bribery charge on a detective, his term was short enough that he was confident that the other inmates would never figure out he was a homicide detective before he got out. During this time, he became cellmates with Baba, Oshima, and Saejima.
== Involvement ==
=== Yakuza 5: 2012 ===
On what appears to be another regular day in Abashiri, Himura notes that Saejima is almost ready for release on parole. After, Hiroshi Kugihara's underlings interrupt Saejima's talk with Baba, and brutally torture Saejima again. To cheer everyone up, Himura gets them to start image training on a map of Tsukimino, exploring a scene of his past with Kaguya.
When Baba is framed for stabbing another inmate, Himura persuades the other cellmates to gather evidence that the woodworking crew is lying, explaining his detective background in the process. When the woodworking crew is found out, Saejima defeats Kugihara, which actually causes Saejima to get denied for parole. Even worse, he is told that Goro Majima has died. Everyone discusses Saejima's feelings on Majima's passing, then "explores" another area of Himura's past where he dealt with a Chinese mafia.
Saejima and Baba attempt to escape Abashiri on their own, and upon learning they left early, Himura obtains a pistol. Kugihara is about to shoot them, but Himura arrives in time and shoots him in the chest to allow Saejima and Baba to escape. Before they take off on the snowmobile, Himura warns them of Yama-oroshi's presence.
Much later, Himura accompanies Seiji Kosaka and Oshima to Tokyo, where he uses his gunmanship again to stop Baba from committing suicide, shooting the rifle out of his hands just before he could pull the trigger. They talk some sense into Baba, and then watch the Dream Line concert together before returning to Abashiri.
== Fighting Style ==
Though Himura is never seen fighting, he has proven to be an accurate shot with a pistol, legitimizing his detective background. He was also quite adept at fighting crowds.
