=== Personality ===
Okonogi is cunning and clever, able to think through a complicated situation quickly. Considering how the Yamainu, under his control, were able to cover up a series of incidents (the kidnapping of the Prime Minister's grandson, the dam manager's death, Satoko's parents' falling incident, etc.) which may have uncovered the true nature of the [[Irie Institution]], Okonogi's ability to think through these situations is unmatched. He is also easily corrupted by money, as Takano's bribing allowed him to assist her in the creation of the [[Great Hinamizawa Disaster]]. However, as shown by the ending of Matsuribayashi-hen, he is under the true control of [[Nomura]] in [["Tokyo"]]. He does not have a hard time accepting defeat in fair battle scenarios, but is prone to jealousy when he overestimates himself against those who are better than him (especially against [[Mamoru Akasaka]], whom he personally wants revenge against for his defeat at the [[Sonozaki Estate]]).
== Plot ==
=== Himatsubushi-hen ===
In the original visual novel, Okonogi is directly involved in the kidnapping of the Prime Minister's grandson, Toshiki Inugai. He first encountered [[Mamoru Akasaka]] and [[Kuraudo Ooishi]] here as they successfully took back his hostage. Despite Toshiki being successfully recovered, the dam project was still canceled thanks to pressure put on the Prime Minister from elsewhere.
 
=== Minaogoroshi-hen ===
it is revealed that Okonogi was bribed by [[Miyo Takano]] to assist her in using [[File No.34]] to wipe out all of Hinamizawa and have her grandfather's research accepted as fact. After Takano's "death", he sets up an elaborate plan to frame [[Kyousuke Irie]] as the true mastermind behind the murder of Takano and [[Jirou Tomitake]]. The plan is received successfully and the [[Great Hinamizawa Disaster]] occurs.
 
== Matsuribayasi-hen ===
In the manga, it is shown that Okonogi, along with a few other [[Mountain Hounds]], was directly involved in the murder of Rika's mother- particularly her capture. Up until June of 1983 Okonogi stayed out of the line of action until the day before the [[Watanagashi Festival]] - it is shown that he was in charge of all commanding operations regarding the capture of[[Jirou Tomitake]], [[Rika Furude]], and [[Kyousuke Irie]]. It is interesting to note that he recalled facing off against [[Mamoru Akasaka]] in the [[Himatsubushi-hen|kidnapping case five years earlier]] and was glad to see that he had been training since. This however, was not present in the anime adaption as his appearance during the kidnapping was replaced by a generic Mountain Hound member.
 
During the battle on the mountain, Okonogi becomes visibly irritated with the [[Mountain Houds|Mountain Hounds']] incompetence in such battle situations. This is due to the team not being professionally trained as a combat force, as Okonogi would have preferred. He had overestimated the Mountain Hounds' ability to handle themselves in guerrilla warfare-like situations, and subsequently suffered many losses and ultimately defeat by surrendering to the [[[Watchdogs]]. The entire time he maintained communications with [[Nomura]] and, by the time of the surrender, he was prepared to shoot [[Miyo Takano]] as a plab B. After surrendering, he instead left it up to Takano to shoot herself, while musing that he was going "too easy" on her.
 
== Trivia ==
*The only other character to appear in both {{higurashi}} and {{umineko}} is [[Juuza Amakusa]]
