Movie
Description
Kōdai Yamamoto attends Sakuragaoka High School as a Class 1-1 student and belongs to the "Idiot Trio" with Ken Shibasaki and Kotaro Enomoto. As the trio's most levelheaded member, he maintains calm composure over minor issues, expressing displeasure through subtle tonal shifts or sarcasm rather than overt reactions. Typically quiet and observant, he prefers staying on the sidelines while attentively listening, making him a trusted confidant who offers practical advice during friends' struggles.
His hobbies include constant reading, always seen carrying a book, and a dedicated interest in photography with a personal equipment lab. He occasionally photographs classmates, focusing particularly on Natsuki Enomoto, whom he harbors unrequited feelings for since middle school after being drawn to her easygoing nature at Kotaro's house. Despite this affection, he never confesses before her graduation, compiling photos of her into a farewell photobook while privately acknowledging jealousy toward others who elicit her freer smiles.
Relationships anchor his background: he shares enduring middle-school friendships with Kotaro, who regularly seeks his counsel, and Ken, whose attempts to provoke him Kōdai usually ignores or rebuffs. He maintains acquaintanceships with Arisa Takamizawa and Hina Setoguchi within their friend group. Later, he dates underclassman Juri Hattori, meeting her at his workplace café; after initial embarrassment on her part, they reconnect and begin a relationship.
Physically, he stands 172 cm tall, ranking as the series' fourth tallest male and tallest in his class. His appearance features short black hair styled with two distinct upright sections and asymmetrical bangs parted above his forehead, along with glasses later switched to contacts. He typically wears his school uniform with an open blazer and tucked-in shirt. His given name combines "happiness, fortune" (幸) and "big, great" (大), while his surname Yamamoto means "mountain" (山) and "base, source" (本).
Across media, his role as a supportive figure within the friend group remains consistent, with personal growth marked by transitioning from unrequited feelings for Natsuki to a mutual relationship with Juri, all while retaining his calm demeanor and observational nature.
