Tsuchida, Naozumi

土田直純

Tsuchida-sensei is the sole male teacher at Hanamaru Kindergarten, having begun his teaching career there immediately after graduation. Initially perceived as unreliable, he gradually gets the hang of being a teacher as time passes. Although Anzu likes him, he does not return her affection. Instead, he has a crush on his colleague, Nanako Yamamoto. Sakura called him Tsuchi when they were classmates, and she still does; consequently, Anzu uses that nickname as well. He is a game otaku who plays until late at night, which often results in him being late for work at the kindergarten. He teaches the students of the first-year Sakura Class. He is nicknamed "breast man" due to his habit of looking at girl model magazines and frequently staring at Yamamoto-sensei's chest.
