Anime Challenge Day 17 – Favourite supporting male anime character

Today’s star is the Zen master of cool. Ladies and gents, I present to you…

Yasushi Takagi

Also known as Yasu from Nana.

Badass punk rock drummer by night, grown up lawyer by day, Yasu has cool written all over his bald head and fancy ties. Definitely the mastermind behind Black Stones and the most mature person in that band (and in that group, I may add). Yasu is the one every girl in the series fantasizes about, but won’t ever admit.

Not the case of Nana Osaki, who offered to sleep with him more than once.

And also Nana Komatsu who mentioned her admiration towards him a few times.

I think even Junko said something about how cool Yasu is.

So yeah, definitely the best supporting male character.

Wait. It’s about supporting, right? Well, I should also mention the way he takes care of Osaki all the time, no matter how stupid, childish, sad or drunk she is. And he’s never taken advantage of her so there’s also his respect for her and Ren. And respect for their relationship and feelings.

I mean, seriously. Not only he’s good looking and mature and smart and badass, but he’s also nice and caring and a super good friend.

I need Yasu in my life. Now. In fact, I need three of him.
