Character

Tomozo Sakura

さくら 友蔵

Tomozo Sakura is the grandfather of Maruko. Tomozo has a rather approachable demeanor, and contributes often to family discussions, sometimes drawing upon his own past experiences as a child. He is also prone to causing embarrassment for the family in moments where he makes awkward statements or actions, sometimes to further embarrassment from non-family members or strangers. Tomozo enjoys the company of his family, and especially Maruko, in times where she lightens his mood with imaginative thoughts and dream-like scenarios which often show the both of them together. He can sometimes be seen playing Go, a traditional Japanese board game.
