So Amon

So Amon (, Amon Sō) is a minor antagonist and Kazuma Kiryu's secret boss in Yakuza 0. He is the former leader of the Amon Clan.
== Profile ==
=== Appearance ===
So matches Kiryu in build. He bears a strong resemblance to his son, Jo Amon, albeit with visible wrinkles on his face and much thinner hair with prominent sideburns.
==== Attire ====
So's attire consists of a black trench coat worn over a white dress shirt, a black tie, pants, and dress shoes. He is seen with the trademark aviator sunglasses.
=== Personality ===
So is an ambitious and feared individual, befitting of a world-class assassin. He is extremely prideful and seeks to further the Amon Clan's glory. He speaks in a high and lofty manner.
== Involvement ==
=== Yakuza 0: 1988 ===
In Yakuza 0, he appears and faces Kiryu, as he wants to stop him from becoming the stronger warrior. According to a dream he had, he had seen Kiryu suffer long years of solitude, and met a young girl. After he tells Kiryu of his vision, he fights against him.
He proves a tough fight but is ultimately defeated. After he is beaten, he tells Kiryu that the Amon Clan will prepare to face against him again 17 years afterwards.
=== Yakuza Kiwami: 2005===
By the time Kiryu is released from prison, So left the clan for Jo to lead and presumably retired or passed away. 
== Fighting Style ==
So fights in 2 phases.
* In the first phase, he wields a demi-cannon. His attacks in this phase consist of shooting cannonballs straight forward that explode upon impact with Kiryu or the ground, sending him flying. He can also angle the cannon upwards to launch a volley of cannonballs that will fall to the ground and explode, setting Kiryu on fire or stunning him should they hit. Another attack involves shooting the infamous Amon black-and-red laser that is initially shot straight and then angled upward, though he will visibly tense up before shooting it. If Kiryu is stunned, he will launch a straight laser blast that will instantly kill Kiryu.
* In the second phase, a Black Hawk helicopter will show up and begin dropping chairs, tables, and occasionally medicine that makes whoever consumes it invincible (only for a short period of time). Kiryu or So can consume the medicine immediately upon contact, and So will run straight for the medicine as soon as it drops. The helicopter will cause winds that may cause chairs and tables to fly around, damaging Kiryu if they fly into him. So uses Keiji Shibusawa's Beast style in this phase, but unlike Shibusawa, he can run.
