* DarkerAndEdgier: ''Hell yes.'' While there have been [[AncientConspiracy much]] [[ProfessionalKiller higher]] [[SpySatellites stakes]] in previous regions, the premise of East Asia instead evokes tons of AdultFear that is bound to make more than one player's skin crawl with its tone, which basically involves orphaned children being kidnapped and trained by the {{Yakuza}} so they can be delivered to a NebulousEvilOrganization, brainwashed, and put on a DeadlyGame so they can kill each other until only one of them remains. It's no surprise that many consider East Asia's plot to be one of the darkest in the entirety of Criminal Case.

Encompassing the countries of China, South Korea, and Japan, East Asia focuses on the Bureau investigating a wave of orphaned children disappearing all over the region and its eventual connections with SOMBRA, who seems to be recruiting said children to put them on a DeadlyGame where only one person can survive.

!!Tropes:
*AdultFear: The whole district counts as a big one [[HumanTraffickers due to]] [[{{Brainwash}} the nature]] [[DeadlyGame of the plot.]]
* ArcVillain: Both Ronin Ozawa and Obaasan serve as the main antagonists of the district, the former being "The Head Hunter" responsible for [[HumanTraffickers kidnapping and training children for SOMBRA all over the region]] and the latter the one in charge of {{Brainwash}}ing and putting them into a DeadlyGame so they can kill each other. Interestingly, they appear to be working independently of each other despite both of them being allied with SOMBRA, making them a BigBadEnsemble instead of the expected BigBadDuumvirate.
*ArcWords: "The weak die" or some variation of said phrase is said by multiple characters throughout the region, which turns out to be a MadnessMantra of the victims that have been brainwashed by SOMBRA.

*ADayInTheLimelight: For Angela, who [[MamaBear as a mother of three]] has her inner fears explored in this region due to involving children being in danger. It doesn't help that her daughters are accompanying the Bureau throughout East Asia, making her even more paranoid about their safety until the end of the arc.

*RescueArc: In a sense, as most of the region focuses on tracking down and rescuing orphans that have gone missing all over Asia before they can be brainwashed and put on a DeadlyGame.
