Todomatsu Matsuno

Todomatsu Matsuno (松野 トド松 Matsuno Todomatsu) is a major character in the 1960s comedy manga series Osomatsu-kun, as well as it's 2010s comedy anime sequel-spinoff Osomatsu-san. Alongside his five brothers, he is one of the focal characters of the series.

 Appearance Edit
In Osomatsu-kun, Todomatsu appears identically to all of his brothers, sporting the same yellow-buttoned, blue outfit and dull blue-gray pants with brown shoes. His irises are black and he has a recognizable bowl cut with two cowlicks, traits they also all share.

Later in life, in Osomatsu-san, Todomatsu becomes more distinct as an adult: though the brothers all sport identical outfits that match their original series designs rather accurately (the pants are more gray, and a dress shirt underneath is more distinct and dons a tie), each brother more typically wears a color-specific hoodie throughout much of the series. In Todomatsu's case, his distinctive color is pink.

His mouth is often shown in a 'three' style, akin to a stylization of a cat, or a mouth often used to represent playfulness or mischief. Todomatsu also often wears a beanie atop his head, and among all his brothers, is the most effeminate. Being the only one shown to have interest in it save Karamatsu, he is also the most fashion-savvy of the brothers.

Personality Edit
In Osomatsu-kun, Todomatsu has a rather stock personality, interchangable with that of his brothers at any given time. While occasionally given traits, they aren't overly consistent to him in particular, and often in appearances individual brothers aren't even named, making it hard to single him out from his siblings.

Later in life, he comes to find his own personality: In Osomatsu-san, Todomatsu, like his brothers, is not the most upstanding nor moral person. He often causes petty problems and has few real aspirations, being a shut-in NEET. Todomatsu is often referred to as 'Totty' by his brothers and others, and takes to nicknames and other gentle or affectionate monikers well. On the surface, he seems not only the most affable, but the most composed, but in actuality Todomatsu is most well-known for his trademark two-faced nature. He'll often talk badly about his brothers behind their backs in order to distance himself from them for social favor. He's the most successful with girls, and potentially jobs as well; he's often away from the house or uninterested in the brother's affairs.
