Atsushi Maeda

Recognizable by his signature red hat, this member of the notorious delinquent trio initially targeted Sakamoto for bullying alongside his companions, Kenken and Mario. After a disastrous accidental fire led to a rescue by Sakamoto, he transformed from an antagonist into a loyal friend. While he has traded smoking for blowing bubbles, his feelings for Sakamoto seem to go deeper than friendship, as he frequently blushes and openly admires his hero's coolness.
