“ | ...It's nothing so noble. I just think... If I ran away from what I think I should do even once, then surely, I'd end up running away when it matters most. I know the kind of person I am. I'm not doing it for others. I do it for myself."" | ” |

Personality
Edit

Osamu going into battle to protect students
Osamu knows he has a limited talent for direct combat and that he is not nearly as proficient with his trigger as his teammates and other Border members. He recognizes his weakness and strives to become stronger.
Kazama's advice to fulfill his duties as a captain had an impact on Osamu since it allowed him to change his approach and make his team stronger rather than just focusing on himself. This change in thinking has allowed Osamu to think outside the box and strengthen his team by pursuing ideas such as deciding to add an additional member to his team, asking Jin to join his team, agreeing to allow a formerly hostile neighbor to be part of his team and finally using negotiation tactics such as controlling the flow of the conversation by implanting "agents" in a room, a tactic he learned from Eizō Netsuki when it was used against him in the press conference.
Relationships
Edit
Kasumi Mikumo
Edit
Not much of their relationship has been seen, but Kasumi initially disapproved of her son joining Border.[citation needed] After noticing nobody who visited Osamu said he should leave Border,[citation needed] and after watching his speech, she seemingly changed her mind.[citation needed] She also seems to believe Osamu and Chika's relationship is more than friendship, as she constantly tries pushing them together.[citation needed]
Rinji Amatori
Edit
Rinji was Osamu's tutor and is Chika's older brother, who Osamu looks up to. He promised to Rinji that he'd protect Chika. After he disappeared, Osamu became Chika's guardian and tried joining Border to better protect her.[citation needed]
Tamakoma Second
Edit
Yūma Kuga
Edit
Osamu acts as the voice of reason for Yūma and teaches him about Earth's customs. Despite originally conflicting due to their different beliefs and upbringings, they grew to trust each other and became great friends with both willing to risk their lives to help each other.[citation needed]
Chika Amatori
Edit
Chika is the younger sister of Osamu's tutor, to whom he promised that he would protect her, which is part of the reason why he joined Border. He was the only person whom she trusted after the disappearance of her friend and brother, and before she joined Border. He is always encouraging her, and she has a lot of trust in him, too.[citation needed]
Tamakoma Branch
Edit
Yūichi Jin
Edit
Jin saved Osamu from a Neighbor, after the latter tried to break into Border's HQ, and helped him join Border as a combatant. Jin is also one of the people who see potential in Osamu, always encouraging him to do his best. As a result, Osamu looks up to him.[citation needed]
Arashiyama Unit
Edit
Jun Arashiyama
Edit
Arashiyama became friends with Osamu after he and Yūma saved their school and all the students, including his siblings Saho and Fuku. He praised Osamu for his good work, rather than scolding him, despite Osamu breaking the rules of Border. He is always eager to help him.[citation needed]
Ai Kitora
Edit
Osamu has a lot of respect for Kitora, who originally scolded him for breaking Border's rules, but later saw how good he really is. She's always trying to outsmart him, but he doesn't really care. She seems to be interested in his growth. She also envies him for being Kyōsuke's student.[citation needed] He later asks her to train him to better fight with his low trion level.[10] Despite her harshness and criticism towards Osamu, she does believe in Tamakoma 2's potential as later she acknowledged that if Tamakoma 2 was utilized properly they could easily score more points in rank wars. She is also the one to suggest and train Osamu to incorporate the Spider trigger to his fighting style, for which Osamu himself seems very grateful.

Quotes
Edit
- (To Yūma) "Even though my chances of winning are slim, I still can't run away." [11]
- (To Yūma) "It's nothing so noble. I just think... If I ran away from what I think I should do even once, then surely, I'd end up running away when it matters most. I know the kind of person I am. I'm not doing it for others. I do it for myself" [1]
- I'm not a hero. I can't make anyone happy with any result. I can only do what I deem right with me not hating my choice at a later point.
Trivia
Edit
- "Osamu," written with the kanji "修," means "discipline," which fits Osamu's personality. "Mikumo" (三雲? ) literally means "three clouds."
- Osamu seems to be left-handed since he carries his sword in his left hand and it's holstered on his right side. He also uses chopsticks with his left hand.
- He likes his parents' handmade cooking and bridges.
- According to Ashihara's Q&A, he likes his mother's handmade cream croquettes with her special white sauce the best.
- He came first in the first Character Popularity Poll.
- Osamu made a cameo on a special chapter of Saiki Kusuo no Ψ Nan.
- Ōji's nickname for Osamu, "Ossam," might be a pun on "Ossan" (おっさん? ), which is short for "Ojīsan" (おじいさん? ), meaning "old man."
- It is possible Osamu equipped Spider to the Sub instead of the Main during the match against Katori and Kakizaki Unit. In fact, he is seen using it in conjunction with Raygust, which is equipped to the Main, eight times,[12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19] and almost always with his non-dominant hand. However, he seems to have changed its placement again before his next match.[20]
- During that rank battle, however, he again uses it at the same time as Raygust on one occasion, which should be impossible.[21]
