Makoto Ootawara

A VERY large lineman for the White Knights, with huge frame, muscles and ego. Ootawara is a very loud and brash person, who always says what's on his mind, in spite of the fact there's not much up there to begin with. He has a flatulence problem (he farts a lot) and he makes no effort to hide it. Ootawara doesn't even notice when his pants fall off (usually with many spectators present), even when Takami Ichirou (Oujouu's quarterback) tells him about it, he doesn't even feel embarrassed. And he seems to have difficulty telling the difference between the Japanese Katakana "ヘ" (he) and the number "7". Furthermore, he has a bad habit of picking his nose in front of people. As Shouji, the White Knight's coach puts it, Ootawara is plain stupid, (and even he admits it freely). However, Ootawara can be very insightful, which genuinely shocks just about everyone.

However, that is also his strength, since his overall power and simplistic way of doing things makes him perfect for the line, both on offense and defense. When he's really motivated, he could rip apart two opposing rookies. In spite of how crude he can be, he's a nice guy at heart, though he is the epitome of the dumb jock. Always competing with Kurita, Ootawara usually ends up on the short end of the stick, thanks to Kurita's drive.
