Character Outline:
Takeshi Yamamoto (山本 武, Yamamoto Takeshi) was born in Japan and is 177cm tall, weighing 63kg. He is a Taurus with O bloodtype. His future dream is to become a professional baseball player, and he goes to Namimori's batting field everyday. His favorite food is sushi, and his favorite drink is milk. His favorite instrument is the taiko (a Japanese drum).
Addressed as "Yamamoto" by almost everyone in the series, this baseballer-turned-Mafioso has a warm and friendly personality and is rarely seen not smiling. He is, however, very naïve to the point of believing that Reborn's Weapons are advanced kid's toys and that the mafia business is one big cops-and-robbers game.
Yamamoto's portrayal in the story is that of a stereotypical Japanese teenager; his name "Takeshi" and surname "Yamamoto" are both common Japanese names, his looks are quite ordinary for a Japanese teenager, he is a big fan of baseball (a popular sport in Japan), his family owns a sushi store, and later in the story, he uses a katana (a Japanese sword).

Future Yamamoto has shown to have learned everything about the Mafia and seems to be okay with it.
Personality:
Yamamoto is the type of character that can make friends with everyone, and, if not friendship, at least respect. Characters like Hibari Kyoya have been shown to have interest in Yamamoto's battles, and Squalo has also shown interest in his development. However, Yamamoto can become angry when his friends are hurt or injured. He is also willing to sacrifice things important to him to save his friends, shown in the Kokuyo Arc where he sacrificed an arm (right before an important baseball game) to beat Ken; and when Squalo asked him whether he would choose baseball or the sword, he chose the sword in order to protect those he cares about.
Despite his easygoing personality, Yamamoto has shown that he has hidden talent as an Assassin. In fact, Reborn clearly sees Yamamoto's potential and often mentions to Tsuna that Yamamoto is a natural born killer, mentioning as well that he is the best athlete in the entire Vongola Famiglia. His fast reflexes and strong body from sports, mainly baseball, gives him a natural advantage and he is shown to be able to dodge cannon fire and wayward fireworks. Yamamoto is also a quick learner, remembering all 8 forms of the Shigure Soen Ryu despite only being shown once. He also manages to develop a new form of the style, the 9th form, in a life-or-death situation.
_-Shi-kun is my most favorite character in KHR. I dunno why, but I was drawn to him the minute I first saw him, and I forgot what episode it was. Actually, Daney, my friend, was telling me that Tako-hedo is better than Shi-kun, but meh... Shi-kun will always the my no. 1, even though I'm not included in his song, Minna Suki Daze. :D
