Landlord, The

The Landlord (also known as Lalo, or Ōya), born in 1970, is a bald, blue-skinned creature with a head shaped like a daikon radish. He serves as Milk's landlord. Since Milk is perpetually more than six months behind on her rent, he continually attempts to collect payment from her. However, whenever he tries to get the rent, she does or says something that shocks or tricks him, causing him to run back across the ladder to his own home. He is also anxious; for instance, he once thought he had lost his "purse," but shortly found it after making a racket over it. The landlord admitted to being homosexual in the Japanese version of episode 9, "Financial Decay Peninsula." His homosexuality is openly referred to in more than one episode.
