Yodai Higashizawa is a high ranking reaper, and the first game master of the video game The World Ends With You.
The First Week
Higashizawa is the only "proper" game master in the game, as he does things as they are supposed to, 6 days of challenges, and then one day where you fight the game master. Higashizawa appears a few times during the week, poking at Shiki's insecurity with herself. Though he is greatly disappointed, when he finds that Shiki has come to terms, with Neku's help. In the boss fight with him he turns into a ram-like noise.
Another Day
In another day, he helps steal away all the pins, believing that Tin Pin had become "corrupt".
