character information
● name: Chibita
● canon: Osomatsu-san
● canon point: Ep 24, Season 1
age: Hard to say? He’s younger than the sextuplets but he has to be at least 21 to rent an apartment, which he has in canon, so we’re going with that.

abilities:

Normie: Chibita is simply human. He’s shorter than average but stronger than he looks, considering he pulls that big oden cart all by himself. He’s also got some pretty thick skin, both mentally and physically, and knows about surviving and making it on your own.

Cooking: Chibita is a great cook…if what you’re looking for is oden. Its his passion and his cart is his pride and joy. He’s aiming to create the best oden there is, and has many hours of practice and patience with the cuisine.

strengths:

+clever: Chibita grew up mostly on the streets, having been abandoned as a child. As a result, he was a foul-mouthed, capricious, mischievous trickster when he was younger, often joining the local con man (Iyami) in his schemes. This mischievousness now presents itself in the form of cleverness; Chibita is pretty quick on the uptake in most things, and as a result, is also rather good at seeing situations for how they are and dispensing advice.

+patient: He has to be, really, considering the people he hangs out with normally. Between the sextuplets, Dekapan, Dayon, Hatabou, Iyami and Totoko, Chibita’s surrounded by dynamic personalities that sometimes require a bit of patience and a willing ear to figure out what’s wrong. Not to mention that running an oden cart is no easy task, what with the rise of convenience store oden and the decline of street food stalls—but Chibita still returns night after night to try and achieve his dream.

+hard working: Despite literally living in the dump for a good chunk of his childhood, Chibita’s managed to pull himself up by the bootstraps and, through working extra jobs every day and tending his oden stand at night, managed to cobble together enough of a living to pursue his dream and rent his own apartment. At the end of the day, Chibita’s not afraid of a little (or a lot of) hard work in order to get what he wants.

● weaknesses:

-temper: One thing that hasn’t disappeared from his childhood is Chibita’s foul-mouthed temper. Say the wrong thing or, worse, insult his oden, and Chibita will have Words for you. A good portion of those words will probably be swear words. And they will probably be shouted. He can also be a brat if he doesn’t get his way, having willingly started destroying part of Dekapan’s lab when he wasn’t given what he asked for.

-stubborn: Despite his willingness to help his friends, Chibita rarely asks for help himself. He’s very self-reliant and considers himself a person that’s “alone” at the end of the day. He’s unlikely to ask for help from people even when he needs it; partially perhaps out of pride and partially because it wouldn’t even occur to him to do so. Either way, it’s something he’s a little bitter about.

-one-track mind: He’s gotten a little better about this, but Chibita’s life is still very oden-focused. It’s his dream, and he has a hard time seeing around the sides of his oden cart sometimes as a result.

-soft heart: In some cases this could definitely be considered a good thing, but for Chibita it means allowing the Matsunos to keep coming back to his cart even when they constantly stiff him. He also seems to allow others, like Iyami, the same courtesy. Though he does yell at them for it (and, one memorable time, kidnaps Karamatsu in an attempt to make the sextuplets pay their tab,) he still feeds them readily when they show up.

● job skills (optional): Cooking oden. It’s what he’s good at and it’s all he wants to do, and he would definitely emphasize that. He’s definitely is looking to open an oden stand here.

● housing (optional): Preferably tossed near the Matsunos; either in private or shared housing.
