Yuto killed his daughter's killer, but was fatally shot in the confrontation. After this, he was taken to the program.

At some point after starting the third program, Yuto creates the Green Team to oppose the Red Team.

Saitou takes Akira and Yuri with Yuto who explains the situation of the third program to them in order for them to join the team. When Akira shows mistrust of him, he threatens him with his cannon that at first does not activate because Yuto did not believe that it was really his ability. With this, Akira manages to trust him.

During the mission of the ghouls, Yuto faces the strongest and defeats him thanks to his ability, although he leaves him with a broken arm. When the ghoul recovers, Yuri and Akira manage to save him.

During the battle between the Red Team and the Green Team, Yuto is betrayed by Momoko who takes Taro hostage to force Yuto to let himself be killed by her cannon. Yuto, however, manages to survive the shot even though he is left in critical condition. Before Akira and Yuri left the Third Program, Yuto asks them to find his wife in the outside world and tell her that he only thinks about the smiles of his family.
