Yamura, Daiichi

矢村大一

Daiichi was a diligent and responsible boy, despite his gruff "no-nonsense" exterior. He devotedly cared for his three younger siblings: Yoshi, Futaba, and Santa. He took on this responsibility because their mother had died long before, and their father had abandoned them for unknown reasons three years prior. Their paternal uncle compensated for his brother's disappearance by renting a home for the four siblings and covering all their expenses. Daiichi supported himself by working as a mail and newspaper delivery boy, and on his days off, he worked for his uncle's landscaping business. He chose to live apart from his uncle with his siblings so that his father would have a place to return to if he ever decided to do so. When he and the other main characters first became involved with Zearth, he was the first to voice doubts and the first to attempt to leave the "game" before the group discovered the truth of their involvement. His chair was not actually a chair, but merely a floating cushion, and he was lightly teased by a few of the other kids for this lack of imagination. During the fourth battle, Daiichi refused to move until the citizens had sufficient time to escape, a practice later adopted by all future pilots.
