Ichiro Yamada, a.k.a. MC.B.B, is the manager of Odd-Jobs Yamada, former member of Naughty Busters, Mad Comic Dialogue and The Dirty Dawg and the current leader of Buster Bros!!!.
Official Profile[1]
A former member of ‘The Dirty Dawg’. He is the eldest son of the Yamada family, having raised his brothers while running ‘Odd Jobs Yamada’. Forward thinking and compassionate, he is a righteous person who cannot abandon anyone in need, though he was once a delinquent known to all in Ikebukuro.
Appearance
Ichiro has chin legnth shaggy black hair with bangs that frame his face and reach past his eyes. He has complete heterochromia, with his left eye being scarlet red, and his right being forest green. He has a mole under his left eye.
He wears a white hoodie with two silver quarter zippers — one on the top and bottom. On top, he wears a scarlet red varsity jacket with sapphire blue sleeves and bottom hem, and a red badge labeled "B" pinned to the hood. Printed on the jacket is "01" on the right breast, and "BB" on the left. Underneath the "01" is his character quote: “You’ll never find a rainbow if you’re looking down." On bottom, he wears baggy dark blue jeans with a black belt, and high-top black sneakers with scarlet red stripes on the side. The soles of his shoes are labeled with "Buster Bros." He wears rings on both of his middle fingers and his thumb; the ring on his right middle finger being engraved with the letter I. Around his neck, he wears red over-ear headphones with a wire that extends to his left jacket pocket.
During the TDD era, Ichiro had shorter hair and red ear piercings. He wore a black t-shirt and on top of that wore a crimson red hoodie that had two quarter zippers—one on the top and bottom. On top of that was a jacket that resembles a Japanese school uniform jacket with the sleeves rolled up to his elbows. On bottom, he wore baggy black slacks, red-and-black high-top sneakers, and a black belt with a braided red cord attached to it. Tied around his right bicep was a paisley-patterned crimson red-and-black bandana that matched Kuko Harai's at the time. Around his right wrist was a black cord bracelet.
Ichiro’s Hypnosis Mic is a standard red-colored microphone with rings decorated by “BB”. His speakers are a DJ turntable, a set of standard speakers, microphones and laptop, labeled with various graffiti and the Buster Bros!!! logo.
Personality
Ichiro is friendly, responsible, and passionate. He tends to try and carry more than he can to care for those he loves, especially his brothers Jiro and Saburo, whom he is very protective of. He also has a tendency to hold grudges and refuse to move on from the past, such as in his ongoing (and now one-sided) quarrel with Samatoki Aohitsugi.
Ichiro strives to help others, and does so in many ways. He values his community and makes a point to maintain their morale in times of need. Although his insistence on protecting others and standing up for what he believes in causes him increasing amounts of stress, he stays steadfast in his goals to protect and improve his community, and (as he hopes) his country.
