Jirou Yamada

Summary
Jirou Yamada is the teacher assigned to Class 2-D at Kagura High.

Background
Jirou's life has been wishy washy for as long as he can remember, becoming a teacher only because his late father had been one, and his mother insisted on it. He’s a man who’s set in his routine, and doesn’t deviate unless he absolutely has to. Seldom will he intervene in the business of his students, and when he does, it’s only when he’s own neck is at stake. Students generally treat his lessons as a joke, and even the other teachers frown distastefully at him when he walks into the staffroom. The one thing Jirou has showed enthusiasm in is cooking. Though cooking is only a means to get to what his true passion is…. Food. He’s not necessarily a gourmet though as he’s frequently seen munching on a packet of chips. Despite his lazy attitude he does care about the wellbeing of his students, and will sometimes act and encourage them to make a choice which Jirou has deemed ‘worth their while.’
