Toko Mukai: House of Ninjas character explained

A crowd-favorite in the upcoming presidential election, Toko Mukai is one of the four candidates competing to be the president of the National Democratic Party.

A political figure radiating confidence and hope in the eyes of the people who deem her best fit to be the next president, Toko Mukai hides many secrets.

She has been working relentlessly to fulfill the sinister plans of a shadowy and insidious shinobi clan.

Past

Mukai Toko is a descendant of the Hojo family. Her real name is Toko Sakaki.

She was born in 1964, as the eldest daughter of the distinguished Sakaki family in Aoba Ward, Yokohama City.

Graduated from Toshuin University at the age of 25, she served as a secretary to the lawmakers and former ministers, Ojiro and Nabeshima.

She was involved in a kidnapping case in 2018, amid Tokyo’s gubernatorial election six years ago.

After that, she won a large following and became the governor of Tokyo.

She later entered national politics and is garnering attention in the upcoming presidential election.

Present

Her campaign revolves around policies like political reform and promises of eliminating corruption.

With all other candidates running to become the president of the National Democratic Party killed, Mukai is the sole survivor.

If the elections proceed as is, she will inevitably become the party present, uncontested.

Truth

Toko Mukai is actually Toko Sakaki, a descendant of the Hojo clan, that was defeated by Hattori Hanzo during the same time he drove the Fuma clan out of Odawara.

The Fuma clan has kept her name and relationship with the Hojo clan a secret.

Her name is on the family tree inside the scroll that Gaku and Haru’s grandfather took from the Fuma clan.

Toko’s role is to be a puppet for the Fuma clan. Since she took office, she has been doing all she can to revise the constitution.

She found opposition from the anti-revisionists, whom she has been fighting, all in order to bring about a change that facilitates the Fuma clan’s plan involving the Demon Gate.
