Genzou, who owns the apartment building where the sisters reside, is an elderly man who seldom smiles and comes across as gruff and forbidding. Nevertheless, he is deeply concerned with the sisters' welfare and was the only person willing to take them in after their father abandoned them. In his own manner, he attempts to look out for the Yamada sisters. They apparently remind him of his wife and granddaughter, who were killed in a truck accident. Despite caring for the sisters, he still collects the full rent every month.
