!! Kinjiro "Jiro" Sakamachi
[[quoteright:300:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/kinjirou_sakamachi.png]]
->Voiced by: Creator/SatoshiHino (Japanese), Creator/BlakeShepard (English)
A second year high school student who accidentally discovers Subaru's secret. He suffers gynophobia in which his nose bleeds whenever a girl touches him. He reveals the cause to be his mother and sister practicing their wrestling moves on him on a daily basis for ten years as part of his training. He states his nose bleeds when a girl touches him because his body developed the reflex. He was forced to sign a contract with Kanade Suzutsuki to not reveal the secret of Subaru Konoe in exchange of finding a way to cure his gynophobia.
----
* AccidentalPervert: This is actually what kickstarts the plot. Jiro caught a sight of Subaru's panties after entering the toilet stall without knocking, and then accidentally groped her chest, discovering her gender. To his bad luck, these kind of incidents for him don't stop there.
* BaseBreakingCharacter: InUniverse, Jiro has unwittingly become this to Subaru's fangirls, on account of his (alleged) gay romance with Subaru. In fact, fangirls who approve of their relationship (implied to constitute roughly half of Subaru's entire fanbase), led by Nakuru, formed their own club, "Let's Warmly Protect Subaru-Sama Committee" (Mimamorugai), leaving the original club, "Shooting Star Subaru-Sama" (S4), entirely to the other half — the ones who vehemently object to such a relationship.
* EmbarrassingNickname: Jiro's full name (in Japanese order) — Sakamachi Kinjiro — has an unfortunate arrangement such that the last syllable of his surname and the first of his given name can be combined to sound like "chicken", something he really has a major complex with (thus he prefers to be addressed as "Jiro") and called out on by Kanade and later Usami.
* InSeriesNickname: He's frequently just referred to as Jiro.
* MistakenForGay: Usually happens to him regarding his relationship with Subaru, since most people still are unaware that Subaru is a girl.
* {{Nosebleed}}: He has one whenever a girl touches him. Unlike most examples, this isn't caused by sexual arousal, but from a reflex he developed to stop his mother and sister from using him as a sandbag.
* SecondYearProtagonist: He's the main character of the story and a second year high school student.
* SecretKeeper: He's made promise to not reveal Subaru's true gender to anyone.
* SweetOnPollyOliver: Downplayed. He falls in love with a girl disguised as a boy, but the romance started after Jiro found out Subaru is a girl.
* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: He has dark blue hair.
