Amaken

As the son of Amano and a sharp-tongued rakugo critic, this character serves as a persistent rival whom Yotarou holds in deep resentment. Although his presence is limited to minor appearances during the initial and second arcs, he emerges as a much more significant figure in the third arc. There, his role intensifies as he provides a critical written analysis of Yotarou’s groundbreaking performance of an original rakugo piece.
