BGI is a global corporation who supply technology to the WCG, but also have a hand in the black market, and are tied to the Syndicate historically. Since they are playing both sides, it's in their best interests to keep the status quo; nothing could be better for business. BGI is wary of Konoko, because she's a Daodan host and the daughter of someone who wanted to upset the status quo. At first, BGI merely has Konoko under surveillance. As long as she is loyal to the TCTF, they hope that she will help take down Muro. | BGI is a global corporation who supply technology to the WCG, but also have a hand in the black market, and are tied to the Syndicate historically.

Meanwhile, BGI finally discovers Muro's plan (Sturmanderung) and realizes that he is a threat which needs to be contained immediately because it will destroy the status quo. Having learned where his base of operations is, they decide to raid it with their best troops, as well as to use their state-of-the-art battle mech, the Iron Demon. They only have time to finish two, and one is being built at Musashi Manufacturing. By this time, Muro knows that BGI is not his ally and may even know that they are out to get him, so he throws a monkey wrench into their plans by using Musashi (Ch. 2) as a decoy to buy him time to hit Vago (Ch. 3), and also to interrupt the process of assembling the Iron Demon, which the Deadly Brain there was meant to pilot (thus explaining what it was asking for when it demanded feet). A second Iron Demon is successfully built at another semi-legit BGI-owned company called ZLL, and equipped with a second Deadly Brain as pilot. | Meanwhile, BGI finally discovers Muro's plan (Sturmanderung) and realizes that he is a threat which needs to be contained immediately because it will destroy the status quo.

When Konoko goes rogue, BGI anxiously watches to see if the TCTF will "take her in or take her down" before she transforms. Like Griffin, they anticipate that she will go to the State Building to learn more by accessing her father's files, and so they send a ninja team headed by their master ninja to take the files before she can get them. The concern is that if she learns about the Daodan and the severity of the world's pollution, she is more likely to continue the subversive work her father was doing. Immediately after Konoko beats Mukade, they decide to move in on her openly. They use a stealth dropship to ascend to the rooftop and dispatch troops. She escapes them and heads to Hasegawa's Lab. After the existing dream sequence level, Konoko wakes up to find the Lab is being silently raided by BGI, who are hunting her and are already guarding her motorcycle outside. She escapes by commandeering their dropship and taking off. | When Konoko goes rogue, BGI anxiously watches to see if the TCTF will "take her in or take her down" before she transforms.
