Three months prior to the main story, Mochizuki is approached by Taiki Yamada at Hanazono Park challenging him at a fight, to which he gladly accepts. Upon being defeated, he compliments Yamada's strength and is asked to join him as one of his subordinates. Sitting there confused, Yamada attempts to brainwash him and believes he's successfully done so, though Mochizuki was only knocked down to the ground and would later get up unphased.

In the main story, Mochizuki is first seen during the second night where he'll be waiting for Kunio at Hanazono Park. Having heard of Kunio beating Kiyofumi Taira and Tadashi Kinoshita in a fight, he picks a fight with him. Impressed with Kunio's fighting skills after being defeated, Mochizuki passes out and later has his followers walk into the park seeing him passed out on the ground and Kunio standing by. When Mochizuki's followers are all defeated, Mochizuki gets up and informs the group that they were fighting against Kunio, which they all become shocked as they know about his legendary status. Mochizuki and his crew take on Kunio one last time to where they are all defeated once again.

On the third day, Mochizuki is seen guarding the gate outside of Kobayashi's factory as he wishes to have a rematch against Kunio because of his loss the night before. When defeated, Mochizuki believes Kunio might be able to take on Kobayashi and gives details on Kobayashi's fighting history with other big names at Reihō Academy.

River City Melee Mach!![]

River City Saga: Three Kingdoms[]

Mochizuki plays the role of Yue Jin, a general in Cao Cao (Yamada)'s army who'd often be able to surprise attack an enemy before they had time to prepare their forces.

Yue Jin is first seen during the third chapter when Liu Bei (Gōda), Guan Yu (Kunio), and Zhang Fei (Godai) approach him in Suiyang to pass a message from Tao Qian to request negotiations with Cao Cao. Yue Jin agrees to take the letter and pass it to Cao Cao.

During the fourth chapter, Yue Jin questions Guan Yu as to why he's refusing Cao Cao's offer to join his army with no clear sign of knowing Liu Bei and Zhang Fei are still alive. Yue Jin insists that Cao Cao is wasting his time on trying to recruit Guan Yu, though Cao Cao believes that his loyalty to Liu Bei and Zhang Fei are a good thing and proceeds to negotiate terms with Guan Yu. Outside of Cao Cao's castle in Xu, Yue Jin is able to spar with Guan Yu. Upon being beaten, he will express to Guan Yu that he's happy to be allies with him, even if it may be temporary.

Yue Jin makes a brief appearance in the fifth chapter as a boss fight at the Dangyang Bridge, where he'll be seen alongside other troops in Cao Cao's army fighting Zhang Fei. During the Battle of Red Cliffs in the final chapter, Yue Jin will come across Guan Yu, Zhou Tai (Saotome), and Gan Ning (Shimizu) on one of the ships and states that though he has nothing against Guan Yu personally, he doesn't wish to pass up on the opportunity to fight against him.

Mochizuki was added to the China Heroes gamemode as a bonus character that is unlocked by default in the English release of the game. In this gamemode, Mochizuki is able to use Rapid Fall Punch, Explosive Kick, Nitro Attack, all bow attacks, and Shooting Stars as his super special.

River City Saga: Three Kingdoms Next[]

Mochizuki retains his role as Yue Jin.

Yue Jin is first seen during the fifth chapter with the other Wei generals angrily discussing Sima Yi (Tobioka)'s sudden decision to rename the Wei to Jin. Xiahou Dun (Ryūichi) claims that it was an order that came from Cao Cao (Yamada) before his sudden illness and mentions that he's still hospitalized in Chang'an. Yue Jin questions why he's been placed so far away. He asks Xiahou Yuan (Ryūji) if he heard anything about Cao Cao being in the same hospital as him, to which he was completely unaware. With the generals suspecting that Cao Cao is being held captive under the guise of hospitalization so Sima Yi can take control over the Wei, they all leave the Jin in search of Cao Cao.

Yue Jin is later captured after falling into Sima Yi's trap and is subsequently forced into putting on one of his brainwashing antennas under the assumption that it'd make him even quicker. Sometime after, he is seen leading a group of troops carrying provisions with the intent of baiting the Shu into an ambush due to their low provisions. Jiang Wei (Reika) and Ma Dai (Tsuge) pretend to attack the provision transport to get the ambush troops to go after them with Guan Yu (Kunio) and Zhang Fei (Godai) coming in after, though the two drop in earlier once they realize Yue Jin and his troops are all too fast for them. With everyone realizing that Yue Jin is brainwashed, the Shu face off against him and his men to return him back to his senses. Upon being defeated, the brainwashing antenna is dislodged from Yue Jin as he struggles to remember what he was doing. After being told he was brainwashed by the Jin, he begins to remember what happened and explains how he got tricked. He thanks the group for helping him and discloses that although he doesn't want to work with the Shu, they'll possibly run into each other again since they're both going after Sima Yi. Before leaving, he lets the others know that he's going to search for the other Wei generals so that they can get Cao Cao back and beat up Sima Yi.

During the final chapter, Yue Jin is seen in Chang'an alongside Yu Jin (Taira), Zhang He (Kinoshita), and Pang De (Otonashi) to assist Guan Yu in his fight against Sima Shi (RK300-1).
