Takuma Okaze (大風 琢磨 Ōkaze Takuma) is a high school friend of the members of SOARA.
Appearance[]
Okaze is a relatively tall teen with black hair swept to one side and brown eyes. He is seen in either his school's black gakuran uniform or, when working at his family's shop, a white shirt, a black undershirt, dark colored jeans, and a bright green apron.
Personality[]
While he has relatively limited screen-time, Okaze seems to be a pretty friendly and kind individual as seen in his conversations with Sora. He seems to be quite diligent and devoted to his family, as he spends much of his time outside of school working at his family's shop.
Plot[]
Okaze is a third year at the same high school as the SOARA members. Over the course of the movie, Sora Ohara discovers that Okaze is interested in studying confectionary arts at university, a choice at odds with the fact he currently works at his family's butcher shop. Okaze later gifts Sora with some croquettes he made so that Sora will keep his university plans a secret from his family.
Okaze is seen again at the graduation concert when an underclassman confesses her feelings to him. The two are seen holding hands during the concert so it is assumed that Okaze reciprocated her affections.
He re-appears in the second anime season episode also called LET IT BE, where it is revealed that he has followed his dreams of pursuing baking and confectionary arts as he now works at a cake shop in Tokyo. He still comes back to his hometown to help his parents with their shop, saying that his dream now is to takeover the shop from his father and expand their shop from selling just meat based goods to both meat and sweets; this way he can continue his families legacy while pursuing his own passions at the same time. Later in the episode, he is seen in the crowd with his family attending SOARAs concert in their hometown.
