Shoji Kubodera

"Many sad events have transpired, but do not lose heart, and do not give up. If we all support each other during these troubled times, we'll be able to get through this together."

- Mr. Kubodera

Shoji Kubodera was the homeroom teacher of 9th Grade Class 3 at Yomiyama North Middle School. He and his mother are two of the "Deaths of July."

Personality and Traits
Kubodera is a very confident man, and often begins each class with encouraging the students. He seems to view the struggle against the curse as a group effort, believing that if everyone works together, they'll all make it through the year. He's also a compassionate individual and a hard worker, taking care of his elderly, disabled mother when not at school.

However, as his students continue to die from the curse, it becomes evident that the class rules are no longer effective, Kubodera begins to lose his calm veneer...and his sanity.

Appearance


He has black hair and black eyes, and wears square glasses. His age differs between the anime and manga - in the anime he looks rather young, but his manga counterpart he appears to be much older. He usually wears a white shirt along with a blue-striped tie tucked perfectly, and brown pants.
