Oota's basically Tanaka's shadow at school—he's always looking after him, carrying him around, and generally making sure everything's handled. He's the capable, responsible type who seems to have everything under control, which has led Tanaka to joke that he'd make "a good wife." The whole caretaker dynamic is pretty much their thing, and Oota seems genuinely invested in keeping his best friend comfortable.
Despite the serious, straightforward impression he gives off, Oota's got an unexpected sweet tooth and is actually kind of scared of ghosts—details that don't quite match his outward vibe. But that contradiction is part of what makes him work, honestly. He's dependable to a fault, but he's not some cold, humorless guy.
