Description
Carloto Yamamemoto serves as president of the Yamamoto Anshin Travel agency and captain of its spacecraft, the YAT Dove. A seasoned 45-year-old Virgo regarded as an old wolf of space, he once roamed as a feared pirate before retiring into the travel industry. He operates as a corrupt and ambitious executive, organizing tours to cheap or forbidden locations while charging customers exorbitant prices. His abusive management includes frequent outbursts, withholding pay, and showing ingratitude toward loyal employees. Outdated technology leads to regular workplace accidents, and his company languishes in near-poverty, barely surviving despite his predatory business tactics. He often lowballs clients with exaggerated offers and uses celebrity endorsements to mend the agency’s reputation.
Beneath his grumpy and egoistic exterior lies a good heart. He founded the agency primarily to locate the biological parents of his adopted daughter, Katsura Tenjouuin. A doting and overprotective father, he coddled Katsura throughout her youth, leaving her with a childish demeanor in adulthood. He reacts harshly to romantic advances toward her, especially from Goro Hoshiwatari, and initially pushes Goro toward Kanea Marigold to deter his interest—though his stance softens over time.
His pirate past remains integral to his identity. Once feared as the "second-coming of Captain Kidd," some have dismissed him as a C-List criminal. Fifteen years before the series begins, he crewed with Ann Marigold, now president of rival company Gentleman of the Cosmos; their shared history is fraught with conflict and mystery. He insists his piracy had a Robin Hood-like quality and expresses disdain for pirates like Captain Rock who target civilians. He retains his manipulative and ambitious nature, exemplified when he frames a Freudian slip to trick Captain Rock into hunting treasure—only to steal it later. Two sunken scars under his eyes hint at his criminal past.
Anomalous events occasionally disrupt his life. In one instance, a demon lizard spirit from a stolen coffin possesses him, diverting the ship to its home planet for resurrection. After the demon succeeds, Yamamemoto’s rage overwhelms the entity, forcing it back into the coffin. In another incident, a gender-bending transformation turns him into a woman, making him an object of attention for male passengers until a kiss from Goro restores him.
His relationship with his crew is complex; though a terrible boss, he ultimately cares for them. His character evolves gradually, including growing acceptance of Goro’s role in the agency. Above all, he remains devoted to Katsura, for whom he would willingly give his life.
