* ImagineSpot: When he explained the “Four Heavenly Kings” of Kanto’s Wide Receivers to his friends, he imagined Monta as a giant monkey, Sakuraba as a KnightInShiningArmor, Ikkyu as a multi-armed robot monk, and Tetsuma as a missile-shooting cyborg. Volume 24’s extra labeled it as “Torakichi’s delusion”.

* {{Fanboy}}: He is great fan of Sakuraba, who wishes to become a player after witnessing Sakaruba catching a very high pass. Even when Sakuraba says he caught that pass by accident and when Torakichi learns Sakuraba is really a sub-par player, Torakichi remains a loyal fan and encourages him to become stronger.

[[folder:"Miracle" Ito]]
President of Jari Productions, and somewhat sleazy manager to Haruto Sakuraba. Originally depicted as just a money-grubbing social climber seeking to make a fortune off Sakuraba's good looks, he naturally flips out when Sakuraba quits being a model to focus on sports. However, he shows a softer side after he comes to accept Sakuraba's wishes.
----
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold
* KickTheDog: When he tries to throw out the sweatband Sakuraba got from a young fan.
* PetTheDog: When he eventually accepts Sakuraba's desire to focus on football, and even starts cheering him on. There is even a flashback where he stopped some thugs from beating Sakuraba even though he was already badly beaten himself.

* DisabledMeansHelpless: Averted quite nicely, aside from not being able to play football, he's treated just like any other bratty kid.

* [[PluckyGirl Plucky Boy]]
* TagAlongKid: Amongst the combat commentators. Often steals Wakaba's camera. Lampshaded in Chapter 50, "Who's that kid?"
