" ONE: who’s the one true rapper? " Once upon a time, the name "Ichiro Yamada" would send a shudder through anyone living in Ikebukuro. Back in the old days, Ichiro was a serious young man with some serious anger issues. His short temper and willingness to participate in the less than legal side of the law made him downright frightening to people far away, and even those closest to him. Not only was he terrifyingly talented with his hypnosis mic, but Ichiro was incredibly clever, too, and his intelligence and survival instinct made him a formidable opponent and gave him the ability to stand up as the youngest member of the dirty dawg. A young Ichiro was serious, guarded and careful, but he still had a soft heart, and cares for children and the weak--even then, he seemed to dislike bullies. The Ichiro of those days is gone, now, but parts of him still remain. His intelligence, and his short temper are still present, but so too is what was underneath: Ichiro has the heart of a protagonist, who, more than anything, wants to do the best he can for his two little brothers, Jiro and Saburo. Though he lived as an orphan, we learn that the dirty jobs Ichiro once participated in were to gain money to save for his family; we also learn he wanted to finish high school and turns down alcohol, two other obvious delinquent activities. Ichiro is a goody two shoes at his heart who was bad by circumstance, and now, as an adult, he's gone from Ikebukuro's devil to its darling. Nowadays, Ichiro still hates to see people being picked on and bullied, and does his best to help around Ikebukuro in whatever way possible. That serious shell has cracked: he's grown into a cheerful and warm young man who loves his brothers, his 'hood, and (embarrassingly) his animes. He works hard to support his brothers as the manager of Yamada Odd Jobs, and he's become a reliable source of information. As the leader of Buster Bros!!, he defends his division from territory battles, all while raising Jiro and Saburo under his roof as their hot single dad guardian. Affectionate, tactile and warm, today's Ichiro is the best big brother you could ever ask for. He's unsure sometimes, but Ichiro is doing his best to raise his brothers and be their guardian as an adult. Though Ichiro can still lose his temper (especially with their fighting), he does his best to be fair with the two of them, and raise them to be everything he wasn't. (with mixed success.) We don't know why his brothers stopped hating him (aside from the fact that he's a good, good boy), but it's clear they adore him now, and Ichiro will protect that with everything in him. However, "adult" is an operative word. Sure, he's trying to be responsible. But he's still short tempered and snaps easily, and heaven forbid you put him in front of his former mentor/teammate/friend/(???) Samatoki, because he instantly loses all of those cool mature big brother qualities and starts acting like a five year old. (See: them calling each other "siscon" and "brocon" over and over.) Ichiro even says that Samatoki makes his world narrow down to a point of rage, and it's such a sore topic that whatever happened with the Dirty Dawg is a quick way to make him snap. That being said, he's well relied on by the other members (Jakurai and Ramuda) and seems to get along well enough with them. It's only Samatoki that makes Ichiro see red. And, it's not to say that Ichiro isn't still dangerous. It's the opposite: he practically snarls at Ichijiku when she gets in his face, and his rap lines are still aggressive. He even loses his temper with his brothers, but he's trying, and it's clear. In the end, Ichiro is doing his best to repent for his behavior. Once a delinquent and now a hero, Ichiro just wants to represent Ikebukuro...and maybe read his light novels and manga in peace every once in a while. |
