芳村 理

The heart of the story, who, at 28 years and 11 months, stands on the cusp of his thirtieth year. Osamu embodies the gentle soul, a blueprint for the underdog—someone who falls prey to deception and exploitation due to his timid nature and poor luck. Osamu's propensity for scapegoatism, shouldering the burden of corporate malfeasance alone, ultimately leads to his dismissal. Left jobless, he finds refuge in the humble confines of Terrace House Hinosaka. Despite being frequently dismissed as inept, Osamu reveals an uncanny fortitude in times of crisis, often stepping up to rescue others or salvage tumultuous situations. Osamu's imposing stature makes him a standout, his head towering well above Mitoko's. An avid enthusiast of Western cuisine, mainly Italian, he shows a significant aversion towards rice—to the point where the mere aroma induces nausea. These two points often rub Mitoko the wrong way, causing her to lash out at him from time to time... Endearingly, he's known among his circle as "Laid-off" and "Young Master."
