The character known as "Big Bro Take" or "Take-nii" lives next door to the Miyagawa siblings. In his early thirties, he resides with his mother. His face remains perpetually obscured by his bangs. Take cycles through part-time jobs, consistently resigning when romantic involvements with female coworkers falter, creating untenable workplace situations. He recognizes the longstanding feelings of neighbor Atsumi Miyagawa but deems a relationship improbable. Take attributes this to his unstable lifestyle and history of mishandling romance, stating he wouldn't subject her to that unreliability. His narrative role involves providing occasional neighborly assistance to the siblings, while his frequent job changes and avoidance of responsibility serve as recurring comedic elements. His character does not undergo significant development or backstory expansion across the series, OVAs, or other media.
