Youji used to be a detective on the police force. His partner was the lovely Murase Asuka, and he had the hots for her BAD! Whilst on a mission one day, investigating a prostitution ring, Youji was injured. Asuka gave him a kiss and he told her to run for it. Unfortunately, the bimbo got about 3 feet away from him and got herself shot. Youji's cries of "ASUKA!" reverberated through the alley. All was lost! All was lost!
So now Youji works with Weiss. Even though he was a cop, he wasn't satisfied that some people were still going unpunished. Youji enjoys having sex with women and being a fop. But we love him! He also wields his sexy wire of death with the greatest of ease.
When Weiss first met up with Schreient, Youji thought there was something familiar about the quiet girl, Neu. When he broke her visor and saw one side of her face, he saw that it was Asuka! She wasn't dead, after all! All was not lost! All was not lost! Unfortunately, she was now a psycho hose-beast with no memories of her past. No memories of being Asuka, and no memories of Youji.

So what went down is Asuka played Youji pretty bad. She pretended like she was trying to remember him, but then led him into a trap. Schreient attacked, Weiss fought, and Youji was forced to kill his love, Asuka. But as she died, she grunted out, "Masafumi...I love you", as Masafumi had "saved" her, as he did the other members of Schreient. This made Youji scream. A lot. It was the last straw, then then Neu/Asuka died. Sucks to be Youji.
In the OAV "Verbrechen ~ Strafe", Youji doesn't do a whole lot. Just pals around with Aya trying to kill Ken and Omi, even though Youji is totally NOT down with that. When it seems like he's dying, he says to Ken, "I couldn't have lived like this anyway. See you soon". Youji's a good guy.
In the Drama Album "Dramatic Precious", however, Youji kinda loses his cool. When he's having sex with random ladies he starts having Asuka flashbacks and begins to strangle the woman he's sleeping with. He never kills any women, of course, but he says he's giving up dating since he doesn't want to ever accidentally kill a girl. A woman's enemy is Youji's enemy. He doesn't wanna be his own enemy.
