List of Sakigake!! Otokojuku characters


The following is a list of fictional characters who appear in Akira Miyashita's manga series Sakigake!! Otokojuku.

Otokojuku

Otokojuku is a private boys' school in Tokyo, established over 300 years ago. The headmaster Heihachi Edajima gathers delinquents from all over Japan and trains them to become the leaders of the next generation.
Amongst the students, the first years are viewed as slaves, the second years as oni, and the third years as Enma. The third years take instruction from the headmaster alone, as the rest of the instructors are not at the same level as them and can not outpower them enough to punish them. The third years run things from the Tendo Shrine, and will tour all over Japan in order to settle disputes.

Otokojuku Specialties

Anyone who fails to do anything in Otokojuku must undergo a Otokojuku Specialty. The outside world is told that these are average school events and special lessons, but in actuality they are various torture methods and duels. A few specialties are known of outside the school, as evident when Hidemaro knew of the Oil Bath before enrolling.

And the end of it is two giant iron balls called the Houkongyoku, which must be rolled up to the summit of Fujiyama. At the check-points, each team chooses one representative to take part in a fight. Whichever surviving side wins in the end is awarded the Shouhyoukan as champion.
Edajima is the only survivor in its 300-year history, having achieved a magnificent victory 50 years ago in 1950. Inside Otokojuku is a memorial stone monument in honor of those who lost their lives.

Because he farted in the face of an instructor the day he enrolled, he was accuses of treason and forced to hold up a 200 kg suspended ceiling for half a year. Although initially depicted as strong enough to knock out Momo and break off a piece of the ice ring with a single punch, he later mostly serves as a commentator with Togashi. Though he accepts this position and even calls himself the "Eternal Commentator of Otokojuku", whenever he does fight again he fights bravely. His specialty is sumo and he was a yokozuna back in his hometown. He will often fight wearing only his fundoshi.

In the manga he refers to himself in the first person as boku, but in the anime he says ore.
The live action film focuses a lot on his experience after enrolling in Otokojuku, making him a sort of second main character after Momo.

The self-proclaimed "Intelligence of Otokojuku". He is also called the "Brains of Otokojuku", but he often messes up simple things like multiplication tables, making his knowledge questionable. However, he does have rare moments where a glimpse of true intelligence can be seen from him. In the Dai Ishin Paren Seiha Arc, it was his idea to form the "10,000 Man Bridge" human bridge. He was renamed Ippei Tazawa in the anime. His father, Tazawa Shintaro, appears in, and much like in the original series he serves as part of the comic relief duo with Matsuo.
Kiyomi Tsubakiyama
A large student with a rather timid personality. He enrolled in Otokojuku to become more manly, but because he can't endure the strict training he tries to run away, only to be caught by Umanosuke Gonda, who then fights him in the men's dorm specialty match Chikurinken Sumou. Midway through the match he learns that Gonda had made yakitori out of his pet Pee-ko, so he becomes enraged and avenges the little bird. After this he gains confidence in himself.
