- Yanda (ヤンダ Yanda), actual surname Yasuda (安田 Yasuda), given name unknown, is a friend of Koiwai and Jumbo's. He is a young man with blonde messy hair who is most often seen wearing a white shirt and tie, which appears to be his working clothes, though his occupation is unknown. Even though Yanda is mentioned in the first chapter, he does not appear until chapter 30. Jumbo calls Yanda "no good" for making lame excuses for not helping the Koiwais move. When he finally visits, he tries to get inside while Yotsuba is home alone, making her extremely suspicious of him. He is somewhat childish, as shown by the tit-for-tat pranks he plays on Yotsuba, including bribing her with candy then taking it back when it does not work, eating her ice cream, and prank-calling her. He also competes with Yotsuba to get to sit in the front seat of Jumbo's car, and likes to spend his money on things like soap-bubbles. Koiwai refers to him as his kōhai, but in what context he is Koiwai's junior is unknown. Yasuda is living from paycheck to paycheck, telling Koiwai that he eats instant ramen because he does not get paid until the end of the month. He never drinks alcohol, which Koiwai and Jumbo seem to find a bit unusual, though his reasons why not to have never been explained.
