The bothersome miser who dreams of being a billionaire!

Jiro Yamashita is one of the Idols available to produce at 315 Productions. He was a former chemistry teacher before forming the Idol Unit S.E.M with his fellow colleagues, Michio Hazama and Rui Maita.

Profile[edit | hide | hide all]

Jiro is a former chemistry teacher. He has a weakness for money and became an idol just to make a profit. Jiro wants to take the easy way out in life and get rich quick, but he still takes his job seriously, so much that he overworks himself sometimes, and gets muscle aches the next day. He's used to cooking for himself due to living alone for so long, so he's unexpectedly skilled in the culinary arts¹.

Resume[edit | hide]

Reasons for Becoming an Idol
It’s just a side job, you know. Idols seem like they make a whole lotta dough, right?
Personal Motto
Billionaire! Heh, what a wonderful word!
Comments for the Future
Singing, dancing idols~ That kind of stuff doesn’t exactly scream “me,” so even I’m pretty surprised I’m here, but what’s done is done. Doing the bare minimum... is just fine, haha.
Comments about Unit Members
Compared to me, Number 1 and Number 2 are pretty youthful, huh... Even though Number 2 is older than me. They’re both completely clueless characters, either way, but I’m gonna try and get along with them, somehow.

2016
Character Commu
Birthday, huh. I'm at the age where I shouldn't be upfront about celebrating it... but when people do, I can't help but think, "This is great." Haha! ...Thank you for celebrating my birthday.


Character Commu
Dear me, holding a birthday party for someone as old as me is a little embarrassing... but I can't say I dislike being the "hero" of the day from time to time. Hehe...
Yes! You're the hero today, Mister Yamashita! For your birthday today, I made a movie of life about you, Mister Yamashita! Don't miss it☆
Ahh, so you created a film about Yamashita-kun's life. There seems to be some writing on his graduation photo... Hm? Why are you so flustered, Yamashita-kun? This movie is about you.


2017
Character Commu
I'm at the age where I can't be too excited for my birthday, but I can't exactly be cool and composed either... Guess I need to figure out the optimal solution to how excited I should be for my birthday, huh? Hehe... thank you for celebrating my birthday every year.


Character Commu
Haha, I never imagined I'd receive fan letters from my old students... This is me we're talking about, you know? You know... becoming idols together... with you two... was the...
Aha. Mister Yamashita fell asleep while he was talking. This is an at-home birthday party so he must be very relaxed
It must be from the fatigue of everyday life and the relief he feels here... Happy birthday, Yamashita-kun. You are doing a phenomenal job... May we three continue to endeavor together as one.


2018
Character Commu
Ohh, a birthday present? Thank you for celebrating my birthday every year. What's inside the box... a golden Maneki cat! Haha, I bet I can use this to get some godly luck. I might just become a billionaire with this... Hehehe.


Character Commu
Tonkatsu on top of curry is definitely Kanazawa curry! Haha, I ate this so much when I was a student. This is a lot of curry though... I wonder if my stomach can handle this.
No problem! I'll eat whatever's left over, so it's okay! Eat as much as you want! Mister Yamashita, happy birthday~♪
The recipe for this curry was completely different from the navy curry we made for Maita-kun's birthday. It was quite fascinating. We too shall partake in tasting your hometown's curry, Yamashita-kun.


2019
Character Commu
I appreciate the present, but what's better is knowing people are happy that I'm alive... Was that too sappy? Well, I guess it's fine sometimes. Thank you for the wishes.


Character Commu
Ah, since Rui got one I had a feeling I'd get one too... a report card... being on the receiving end is embarrassing. Thanks for doing this for me.
Mister Yamashita has many many good points, doesn't he? I had trouble writing them all so Mister Hazama revised it for me☆
Maita-kun and I were openhearted about our feelings... hm? Why are you looking away? Is it really that embarrassing?


2020
Character Commu
I always thought as I got older, I’d drift away from people, but turns out I only get closer. And it’s all because of you, Producer chan. I mean it. Thanks for the celebration.


Character Commu
Last month, I joined Rui in makin a video message….But I think I went overboard.....I dread next year.

No Problem, Mister Yamashita! You will watch it with us, so no need to worry about the embarrassing parts!
Yamashita-kun is more diligent than I had expected. By next year, his mentality will be stronger than ever. I have more to look forward to.


2017
Character Commu
Turning this old, a lot of people have greeted me. This old man gets embarrassed when you say it to his face though… Thanks.


2018
Character Commu
I’m at that age where I’m not happy when people celebrate my birthday, you know? ...Hehe, I’m just kidding. Just a little lie. I’m very happy. Thank you.
