Jiro Yoshidayama (吉田山 次郎, Yoshidayama Jirō) is a character who became more and more well-known throughout the seasons of School Rumble.
Appearance[]
The first thing to notice about Yoshidayama is his long hair, sticking directly up from the top of his head. In other episodes, Yoshidayama's hair changes, for example, when all the boys are in the bathhouse, Yoshidayama's hair is down, giving the other boys the impression that he is a girl. He occasionally wears his hair in pigtails, which gives Eri's dimwitted maid the impression that he was Eri.
Relationships[]
Romantic Interest[]
Eri Sawachika[]
In some episodes it is shown that Yoshidayama admires Eri the most out of all the other girls.
Friends[]
Kentaro Nara[]
Nara started out as a character who was not mentioned a lot after the beach trip. However, he got a bigger role in School Rumble. Nara is featured in all of Yoshidayama's adventures as he is part of his threesome of friends.
Ganji Nishimoto[]
Nishimoto is known as the Buddah of class 2-C, or at least for the guys. His family owns a video store, meaning he can get his hands on any video he wants. He leads the other boys in finding "research" on the girls in the class, along with some of their female teachers. He is the third boy in Yoshidayama's threesome.
Enemies[]
Kenji Harima[]
Yoshidayama wants Harima's role as the class bad boy, as stated in many episodes. In every School Rumble parody (such as the Three for the Kill parody), that includes Yoshidayama, he is against Harima in some way.
Etymology[]
- The name Jiro means "next" (次) (ji) and "son" (郎) (ro).
- Jiro's surname Yoshidayama means "lucky, good" (吉) (yoshi), "field, rice paddy" (田) (ta/da) and "mountain, hill" (山) (yama).
