Kugayama's the club's artist—at least until Ogiue shows up. He's a heavyset guy with a stutter, and honestly, he doesn't have much drive when it comes to actually finishing a full dōjinshi. That changes in volume 5 when Sasahara pushes him to contribute something for Comic-Fest. He drags his feet until Saki basically forces him, Ogiue, and Sasahara into a crash project with a ridiculous deadline. Saki nicknames him 'Kugapii' at some point. By volume 6, he's graduated and landed a job at a medical device company in Iidabashi.
Despite seeming like a pretty average artist at first glance, Kugayama's actually skilled—he just needs the right motivation. And by "right motivation," fans often note he means drawing sexy stuff, especially anything involving Yamada from Kujibiki Unbalance. That's when he genuinely brings his A-game.
