Yuta Sakurada

Yuta Sakurada ( ゆうた, Sakurada Yuuta) is a middle school student at Yotsuba University Affiliated Junior High School, a classmate of Mahiro Oyama, and the best friend of Minato Senkawa. He is voiced by Rena Aoshima in the anime series.

Personality
Yuta is a middle-school aged boy who loves playing video games, just like his best friend Minato. Both boys are also in love with Mahiro Oyama who shares their interest, though neither is aware of her true identity. The two have a longstanding desire to go out with Mahiro, and there appears to be an unspoken agreement between the two that they would each be happy with the other if one of them gets to date her.

For a long time, there was not much in the way to differentiate the two in terms of personality. However, it has been shown that Yuta is the more masculine of the two as he always uses male avatars in the games he plays, and he was eager to change out of the maid uniform he was forced to wear for the maid cafe that Class 2-B put on during the cultural festival. By contrast, Minato plays female characters in the games he plays and actually didn't want to stop being a maid when the cultural festival was over.
