Description
Otsuka is a male employee who works in the kitchen at the family restaurant Garden, the central workplace of the story. He has a tough-looking face, a sturdy and solid build, black hair, and dark eyes, and his age is not specified. Among the restaurant's staff, he is one of the few full-time employees, holding a more established position than the part-time student workers, with the restaurant manager being the other full-time presence.
His background is not explored in any detail. He appears mainly as part of the everyday working environment of the restaurant, contributing to the atmosphere of the workplace rather than to the main narrative. His personality comes across as plain-spoken and somewhat rough-edged; his coworker Nishida Yui compares him to a rock because of his rugged appearance. He is also known for casually sharing stories and boasts, with his characteristic anecdote being that he once spent an entire paycheck on slot machines. His personal motivations are not explored, and he appears simply as a regular employee going about his kitchen duties.
His role in the story is that of a minor supporting character. He does not influence the central plot or the main characters' romantic storyline, and he has no significant dramatic arc. Instead, his scenes add a small amount of everyday texture and light humor to the restaurant setting.
In terms of relationships, he is on friendly terms with his younger colleague Takashi Yoshizawa, to whom he likes to tell his playful stories. He works alongside waitresses such as Yui, and he is part of the kitchen staff under the restaurant manager. Beyond sharing a workplace, he has little direct interaction with the protagonist.
Otsuka shows no notable development over the course of the series and remains a consistent background figure. His primary ability is his kitchen work, as he is shown carrying out cooking and food-preparation duties at the restaurant. Overall, he is a minor character whose main function is to round out the staff of the Garden family restaurant, and detailed information about him is limited.
