Taishi Naomoto holds the title of Seleção No. 6 within the Eden of the East narrative, emerging as a key antagonist during The King of Eden events. His driving ambition is crafting the "ideal movie," casting Akira Takizawa and Saki Morimi as protagonists. To achieve unprecedented cinematic impact, Naomoto plans their dramatic deaths, deliberately engineering perilous situations targeting them. He focuses particularly on endangering Saki, believing her jeopardy will draw Takizawa into a climactic rescue. Naomoto extensively leverages the Juiz concierge service to fund and execute his elaborate schemes, manipulating environments and events for heightened tension. Examples include planting a pistol in Saki's luggage upon her New York City arrival to incite immediate chaos, and orchestrating an explosion at Takizawa's apartment building to capture visually striking footage while endangering lives. His pursuit escalates to an armed confrontation at a New York carousel, where his operatives attack Takizawa and Saki. This assault is disrupted when fellow Seleção Kuroha Diana Shiratori intervenes, extracting the pair in her vehicle and directly thwarting Naomoto's filmed execution plan. Following this failure in New York, authorities apprehend Naomoto. His final depicted appearance shows him in United States police custody, as seen in Paradise Lost.
