ariyama takashi

Tenant in room #2 at Hidamari Private Boarding House. He served as the goalkeeper for the soccer team until Yūsaku persuaded him to switch and join the baseball team as its catcher. This change allows Masato, as the pitcher, to throw at his full strength. He harbors a crush on Keiko, although she only sees him as a friend. He's perpetually hungry but is a very generous individual, always willing to lend a hand to anyone in need. (Source: Wikipedia)
