Godfather/History

==Early Years==
Godfather's early days before the nation's acknowledgement of his achievement are still relatively unknown. It was stated that he wasn't always the perfect super idol everyone pictured him to be. Before he reached that title himself, he made a lot of mistakes in his young days. The child born from that mistake had a child, who then had a child as well. It was eventually revealed that the last child is Ibara Saegusa.
==Super Idol Era==
After finding success, Godfather was named as the first— the original super idol in Japan. His biggest achievement was turning the year-end large scale festival that used to center mostly on general celebrities and musicians, where idols used to merely be included as accessories, into an event that was completely by idols and for idols. This event is now known as SS.
SS was only the beginning of his achievements. After that, Godfather also caused countless other revolutions, both large and small ones. He changed the image of idols that used to be nothing more than just part of the broad definition of musician into its own prosperous genre. He redefined the concept of idols into a special presence that is different from the rest. 
Godfather was aware that nothing lasts forever. At his peak, he decided to use SS and rebuilt it as a competition to seek out the next super idol who could stand on the top and replace him.
==Retirement==
Unfortunately for Godfather, SS wasn't able to produce an actual successor who could hold the whole idol industry the way he did. No matter how much he supported them, even if the industry was able to welcome them well, most of them weren't able to survive for long like him. They were devoured by the popularity of 2nd place and stressed over the super idol title that they had to hold. But even so, Godfather's time continued to tick. He needed someone to substitute his role in the front of the idol industry, which was why he decided to leave the stage that he always protected. He began to focus on controlling the entertainment industry from the shadows. From any kind of music show, variety show, and production, the fate of entertainment world was wrapped in his hands. 
In his journey to seek out the new super idol, Godfather picked three confidant to support him and the future of Idol industry. The first two one was Gatekeeper and Priest and the most recent one was Apostle.Secret Service Godfather also decided to adopt Nagisa Ran in secret when Nagisa was only a child and kept him locked away so Nagisa would not develop any humanity. Subaru Akehoshi's father and Priest was the only people who were allowed to meet with Nagisa. Subaru Akehoshi's father taught him many things to become an idol, as he was intended to be the Godfather's successor.SS - Epilogue 6 
In order to support the super idols he loved, Godfather would not hesitate to sacrifice other idols. He had a tendency to mock third-rate idols used as stepping stones in variety shows like BOGIE TIMEBOGIE TIME. He only focused on idols who had the capability to be a super idol and didn't have the will to go against his orders, which was also why he never had eyes on Seiya Hidaka despite always supporting Seiya's best friend, AkehoshiSatellite.
Seiya and Akehoshi's super idol era was the peak of the idol industry's success, long after Godfather's retirement. Godfather managed to focus on supporting and protecting them without problems thanks to the system he built, but even with that perfect system, times were rapidly changing. No matter how many strings Godfather pulled to protect the industry, there would always still be a leak in the system that was built on top of so many people that were stepped over for their success.
Godfather and his idol industry's system found their downfall after Akehoshi's scandal. As someone who was technically the reason why Akehoshi got dragged into such a mess, that scandal affected Godfather a lot. Akehoshi father decided to refuse his help and end up meeting his end without Godfather being able to do anything to save him. The idol system that Godfather built began to break down, causing many faults in the entertainment world.
Several years later, Godfather was still barely holding up during Jin Sagami's super idol era. Although Godfather didn't survive for very long after that, he managed to stretch out his business influence outside of the idol industry, reigning over everything from the shadow and its lights like a ringleader of the industryRainbow - Chapter 33.
Despite the fact that he truly loved and adored idols, Godfather is said to be someone who loathed humans and could not love other people. He was always been adored and feared by idols and his partners. Those who were working in his favor always adored him and viewed him as the "father" of all idols. Those who were not working in his favor considered him to be a "monster". In the present day, it is socially taboo to speak his real name. Most people refer to him as "God" or "Godfather" instead.
==Death==
Nagisa was discovered during the investigation following Godfather's death. Nagisa was temporarily put under the Tomoe family's care until a new guardian was found for himRevenge Match - Isolation 2.
Most of the Godfather's stock assets, his shows, and the idols he raised all fell to ruin. Some of them ended up in the hands of GFK, Gatekeeper, Ibara Saegusa, or his other business partners that became the pillar of the modern Idol Industry.
Since GFK's capture, some of the assets held by GFK have been acquired by Ensemble Square, and others have been auctioned off at the Antique Market.
