In the OVA Licca-chan Fushigina Fushigina Yunia Monogatari, the character referred to as Dad is the father of the protagonist, Licca Kayama. His background establishes him as a parent who travels for work, as the story begins with his return from a business trip to Paris. His role in the narrative is primarily as a supporting character who serves as the catalyst for the adventure that follows.

Upon coming home, he brings gifts for Licca. One gift is her favorite piano, which she is very happy to receive. The other gift is a stuffed dodo bird, a present that initially disappoints Licca. This specific gift is crucial to the plot, as it is the dodo that later comes to life and gains the ability to speak in the magical world of Yunia, where it helps Licca find her way home. The father's action of bringing this seemingly unremarkable souvenir directly enables the central events of the story.

The narrative does not provide details regarding his physical appearance, personal motivations beyond his return from a trip, or his own personality traits. He functions as a figure within Licca's ordinary life before her fantastical journey begins. The story does not explore his development, any significant relationships beyond being Licca's father, or any notable abilities of his own. His presence is limited to the setup of the plot, and the focus remains on Licca's adventure in the other world.
