[edit] Togusa is not the rookie
The game manual has a prologue by Togusa on p. 4-5 which starts off with “They call me the ‘Rookie,’ the newest member of Public Security Bureau - Section 9.” However the training movies, in-game cinematics and pre-mission briefings in several instances show Togusa interacting with the player and have the other characters referring to the player AND Togusa as well. This can be verified by entering the following cheat at the main menu to access all the missions and movies: R2, R1, Square, Square, Up, Down, Square, Square, R2, R2. Dialogue below was taken directly from the game, with some omissions (…).
Training Movie 7
- Togusa: Well, you’ve made the grade, congratulations.
- Bateau: Uh uh, no way, that greenhorn is going back to basic.
- Kusanagi: He’ll be fine, let him do it. Cut the guy some slack.
- Togusa: You’re in. Break a leg, kid.
Training Movie 8
- Bateau (addressing the player): I’m impressed someone can show an impressive fight even though he’s been on the beat.
- Togusa (who is next to Bateau): Well, excuse me for not being flashy.
Training Movie 9:
- Togusa (addressing the player): Wow. Already this stuff?

Mission 10 briefing
- Togusa: Hey Bateau, why don’t I look for the sub control…
- Bateau: Hey, did that come from you? Genius! Me and the rookie are heading for the control room.
Mission 11 briefing
- Togusa: Major, I’ve been hit too. It’s impossible to move forward.
- Kusanagi: Rookie, try to reach the top floor through the air duct. I’ll try to see if I can get up through the elevator shaft. You copy that?
Mission 12 briefing
- Kusanagi: ...Bateau, Togusa, are you guys able to get the job done?
- Bateau: ...Sorry major...
- Togusa: Same here. If we only had 5 more minutes.
- Kusanagi: Well rookie, you’re all we have left...
