Appearance[]
Okamura is not given a sprite in the original visual novels. Console ports and various adaptations give him short black hair and amber eyes with his casual outfit consisting of a baby blue shirt and brown pants.
Personality[]
Okamura's age makes it easy for him to be manipulated by others during games, especially when it involves his crush on Rika. He also shows a perverted side from time to time.
Relationships[]
- Daiki Tomita (friend)
- Keiichi Maebara (friend)
- Rika Furude (crush)
- Rumiko Chie (teacher)
Story[]
Watanagashi[]
During a games competition in Okinomiya, Keiichi faces off against Tomita and Okamura at The Game of Life. Keiichi is on the losing end for most of the game when he makes a deal with the two of them: if they allow Keiichi to win, he'll ensure that as a punishment game, he'll make Rika wear a cat costume wear and follow Okamura all day while acting like a cat; Okamura has a nosebleed at the thought. The club returns to check their progress where Tomita and Okamura announce that Keiichi has won.
During a curry cooking competition later, Keiichi once again makes a deal with Tomita and Okamura, asking them to give him their vegetables. As a reward Keiichi says he'll let them eat the curry Satoko and Rika made, especially the parts they've eaten out of; Okamura has another nosebleed and accepts the deal. Keiichi's curry pot is sabotaged however, but he gets Tomita and Okamura's help in procuring some onigiri as a way of manipulating the judges: they've gotten sick of eating so much curry that they'll want something fresh to eat. In the end, Keiichi's plan helps him, Tomita and Okamura win.
Okamura helps the rest of the village search for Rika and Satoko when they suddenly go missing.

During a bento competition Tomita and Okamura get bought out by Rika and Satoko, giving them their own bentos to make theirs look better. Okamura and Tomita later play in a baseball game and struggle against Kameda.
Tomita and Okamura tell Keiichi that the rumor of Satoko's abusive uncle Teppei coming back to the village is true, explaining her recent absences.
