Ryo in the forklift race in the first game.
A forklift (フォークリフト Fōkurifuto) is a powered industrial truck used to lift crates.
In the first game, Ryo Hazuki uses forklift No.5 when he works at the New Yokosuka Harbor District harbor and participates in daily warm-up races and moves crates to the warehouses.
In the third game, the forklift is an optional mini-game job in Niaowu. Ryo can unlock arcade cabinets in the arcade via this.

Jones Henders harassing Ryo at work.
Ryo gets a forklift job while searching for the Mad Angels at the harbor. The first task Ryo must do daily when he arrives at work, is participate in daily warm-up races with his co-workers. Depending on what place Ryo got in the race, he can earn a forklift Capsule Toy.
After the warm-up race, Mark Kimberly will give Ryo a route map saying where the crates must be transported to and the quota for the day. Each time Ryo exceeds his quota, he will be given a 50 yen raise per crate. It is possible to get no pay if Ryo doesn't do any work, this will make the foreman Ryozo Yada very angry.
After getting into so much trouble with the sailors and Mad Angels during work, Yada-san fires Ryo. He understands that it's not all his fault, but needs to let him go due to the trouble affecting his company.
