Captain of the Yamabuki elementary school soccer team. During the match between Shutetsu and Nankatsu, he wanted to play in the game to replace Ishizaki, thus started a contest against Urabe, but eventually lost to a 3rd contestant, Misaki. After that he admitted that they were way under Misaki's level. He made it into the Nankatsu city selection team, becoming a regular defender. In the World Youth, he took part in the 1st round of the Asian preliminaries, while most of the regulars were excluded to train individually. He even got injured while defending eagerly.
