18!!'''Tropes applying to Yamamoto:'''
19* BreakthroughHit: ''Manga/TeasingMasterTakagiSan'' was what essentially kickstarted his career as a manga author.
20* CreatorThumbprint: Fans are quick to highlight Yamamoto's art style due to the ForeheadOfDoom that is featured with many of his characters, especially with [[Manga/TeasingMasterTakagiSan Takagi]], [[Manga/InTheHeartOfKunoichiTsubaki Tsubaki]], and [[Manga/WhenWillAyumuMakeHisMove Urushi]]. It got to the point where these three are collectively known as Yamamoto's "Forehead Trio".
21* ReclusiveArtist: To a degree. While some aspects of Yamamoto's life are known, such as where he was born and raised, where he went to school, and his family, he's never shown his face in any capacity.
