Movie
Description
Juushimatsu Matsuno serves as the fifth son among the Matsuno sextuplets. His name originates from the Japanese term for the Bengalese finch, combining kanji for "pine" and characters for "fourteen." His birthday is May 24th. Early media depicted ambiguous birth order, though recent works confirm his position as the second-youngest brother.
During the "-kun" childhood era, Jyushimatsu displayed a quieter, gentler disposition than his siblings, avoiding roughness and crying readily. Despite this, he participated in pranks like digging pitfalls or contaminating food. He expressed insecurity over his lack of individuality among the sextuplets, lamenting that his name was "never called first." His theme color fluctuated between purple and green across adaptations. He frequently collaborated with Ichimatsu on activities and mischief, documented in multiple manga chapters and 1988 anime episodes.
In high school (depicted in the 2019 film), Jyushimatsu adopted a delinquent persona from ages 16-18. He wore his uniform sloppily with unzipped pants and maintained a constant bitter expression, masking his naturally cheerful nature that surfaced only in solitude. His attempts at toughness included pretending to smoke invisible cigarettes and exposing his buttocks. Visually, he developed a single cowlick instead of his brothers' twin tufts.
As an adult in "-san," he embraces an energetically eccentric personality. He consistently appears with a wide-open smile, visible tongue, and attire comprising a yellow hoodie with elongated sleeves, blue swim shorts, and white socks. He exhibits childlike enthusiasm through chants like "Hustle hustle! Muscle muscle!" or "6-4-3 get you!" His behavior includes illogical actions and reality-warping abilities, such as spontaneous self-multiplication or instant muscle growth. Despite his unpredictability, he shows kindness, notably aiding Ichimatsu in finding a lost cat. A darker tradition emerges annually at Christmas: He stays awake to capture and tie up Santa Claus.
His bond with Ichimatsu persists across all life stages, remaining his closest fraternal relationship in adulthood. A romantic subplot arises when he develops feelings for a girl nicknamed "Homura" (Homerun). Their relationship culminates in a rejected marriage proposal, leaving him shocked in the rain before shouting gratitude toward her departing train.
The 2019 film explores his high school persona further, revealing his delinquent act as a response to adolescent pressures. During a memory-world journey, his adult self interacts with this past version, cementing acceptance of his unrestrained personality. His baseball passion recurs, sometimes manifesting in absurd actions like tying Ichimatsu to a metal bat to swing him.
