- "If you'd like, I could give you a haircut whilst you're waiting?"
- ―Jungorou Akiyama
Jungorou Akiyama (秋山 淳五郎, Akiyama Jungorō) is a local barber aboard the Ooarai Girls Academy carrier, the husband of Yoshiko Akiyama and the father of Yukari Akiyama.
Profile[]
Jungorou Akiyama first appears in Episode 5, when Yukari Akiyama (unbeknownst to anyone else) skips class to infiltrate Saunders University High School. The rest of Anglerfish Team, checking her house, discovers that she lives in a barber shop.
Upon hearing of the very existence of Yukari's friends, Jungorou is delighted, even to the point of bowing excessively. While the girls wait for Yukari to return home, Jungorou, anxious to please, offers to cut their hair for free.
Jungorou is thereafter seen attending every tournament match, along with Yoshiko Akiyama. At these matches, he is often seen taking photos.
In the spin-off manga Motto Love Love Sakusen Desu! it is shown that, possibly due to Yukari's connection to the Sensha-dō club, other members of the Sensha-dō team come to the Akiyama Barber shop to get their own hair cut.
In Girls und Panzer der Film he is seen packing the family's belongings into a car, appearing heartbroken that the school is destined to close, as this would mean an end to the family's barber shop business.
Appearance[]
Jungorou Akiyama is a man with short, black hair and a faint moustache. He wears glasses. He wears a grey apron and rolls up his sleeves whilst in the barber shop.
Personality[]
Jungorou Akiyama cares deeply about Yukari Akiyama and worries about her lack of social contacts leading to loneliness. He reacts over-excitedly when discovering the existence of the other girls in Anglerfish Team. Yukari hints that he is jumpy and easily worried, hence why he was uninformed about her infiltration mission.
Etymology[]
- The name Jungorou means "pure" (淳) (jun), "five" (五) (go) and "son" (郎) (rou).
- Jungorou's surname Akiyama means "autumn" (秋) (aki) and "mountain, hill" (山) (yama).
Trivia[]
- Jungorou reads a newspaper titled the 'Ooarai Times'.
- It is implied that the Akiyama Barbershop saw relatively little business until they met the Sensha-dō girls.
