Early career

The Great Struggle

He entered Waseda Law School and visited Osgoode Hall Law School in Canada with Shigeo Miyagawa. He steped up his efforts every day and as a result passed the exam.

Finishing 63rd Term Judicial trainings, he was officially admitted as a lawyer. Using the connections his granfather, Ichiei Kono had with Yuzo Sakamoto, their friendship in the Meiji University OB Association, Karasawa was employed by The Sakamoto Law Firm. However, six months after being employed, he moves out from Sakamoto Law Firm because he came to believe that his grandmother was paying for his salary through the lawfirm. According to lawyer Ichiro Konishi, who was a collegue, Karasawa only came into work for a total of ten days.

Koushinism

Origin

It all started when Hasegawa Ryota was identified as the person behind the handlename Yagami Taichi, at /livejupiter/ of 2ch BBS.

Hasegawa repeatedly talked himself up, slandered everyone and threw abuse in all directions through his handlename and was hated by many BBS users. This hositility of the NanJ residents accumilated and was then concentrated aganist him during the combined effort to disclose his identity. On March 7, 2012, Yagami Taichi was identified as Hasegawa Ryota. Though it must be noted, that it was Hasegawa who gave away the crucial piece of the puzzle (when he posted his graduation certificate that day) and it was also Hasegawa who had left the various bits of information about his daily life, which were pieced together during the identification. The residents gradually found out more about him, including his face, address and family and made this information public.

Since Hasegawa could not withstand this flood of abuse, he sought to take action over the matter and the lawyer he encountered, was Karasawa Takahiro.

Becoming the central figure

Karasawa Takahiro got Hasegawa Ryota's request, and then he filled for a request to the operator of 2ch BBS to delete writings that were allegedly damaging Ryota Hasegawa's reputation. At the same time, he requested for the disclosure of caller's information (13th disclosure). he showed off his competence to the NanJ people.
