Hattori, Yasunobu
Summary
Yasunobu Hattori has shared a friendship with Yamato since their childhood, frequently crossing paths whenever Yamato stayed with his aunt Ayano. During those visits, Hattori often landed Yamato in trouble by exploiting the fact that Ayano’s dormitory featured a women’s bath. Described by Yamato as a ladies’ man who values perverted pursuits over food, he harbors grand dreams of dating every girl in the world and sees the legalization of polygyny in Japan as a worthy goal. He frequently offers relationship advice to the clueless Yamato, whose tendency to mess things up often leads to amusing outcomes. Despite occasionally causing Yamato to find himself in precarious situations, Hattori generally acts with his friend’s best interests at heart. Contrary to his wild reputation, he surprised Yamato and Miki by maintaining straight A grades throughout high school. Recently, Yasunobu and Miki made cameo appearances in Chapter 67 of A Town Where You Live, where they met while Haruto was on a class trip to Tokyo.
