Japanese Consulate

The Japanese Consulate is a location featured in the pen and paper RPG.

Overview
This is the largest consular building in Night City. It houses not only the consulate proper, but also the main American office of the Japanese trade ministry, which oversees all matters of import and export to and from the United States. All personnel, including a security detachment of 100 diplomatic police, live in apartments in the consulate. The living quarters of the higher ranking officials are quite lavish, and security is tight throughout. Naturally, the Japanese consulate offers the same services as its smaller counterparts on the opposite side of the plaza. It also serves as a way-station for travelling Japanese politicians, plus Japanese solos and businessmen who, for some reason or another, feel insecure outside of a diplomatically protected environment.

The consul-general, Juzo Inoue, is samurai businessman through and through. He has a long standing reputation as a tough, wily and inscrutable man. Unlike most Japanese government officials, he was not a career politician, but made his name in business. His days as the ruthless director of an industrial combine earned him many enemies at home and abroad. He is under constant guard by loyal retainers, and rarely leaves the compound. Claims of yakuza and Arasaka connections have never been substantiated '

The Japanese Consulate is situated in Night City's Bank Block sector of downtown.
