He is in charge of the research facility where young Diclonius Silpelits, and Lucy, "the Queen," are taken and often subject to brutal experimentation. His apparent and public goal was to contain the Diclonius threat, thus gaining support and cooperation from the government of Japan. In reality, he wished and strove for the opposite - to bring about the dominance of the Diclonii over the humans. Kakuzawa had three known children. The elder son was active in the research project hierarchy and was very much in the same personality mold as him. A daughter, Anna, who lacked the family tendency to possess genius-level acumen in science and business; she was raised to believe she was inferior as a result. Finally, a youngest known son, born of his rape of Lucy's mother, who was one of the only known male Diclonius, who was along with Lucy one of the keys to his dream of reawakening the power in his family line. Depicted as a fanatic, the Chief was willing to sacrifice anyone, including himself to achieve his goal. His personal authority was vast, allowing him access to Japan's elite Special Assault Team, something usually reserved for the Prime Minister. Even when ultimately thwarted on a personal level, his plans and schemes would later haunt the world by causing a destructive war.
