On the 5th, Nippon-Ham infielder Ruan Ohtsuka (Tokai University) moved into the Yushō Dormitory in Kamagaya, Chiba, along with a Lotso plush toy from the Disney movie "Toy Story." The plush toy, which he bought at Disneyland during his university days, is his favorite, and he said, "I even sleep with it. It's the bad guy in the movie, but it looks cute. Plus, it smells like strawberries." He moved into the dormitory with his beloved companion.

His mother's family home is a soba restaurant called "Okoshiji" in Kanuma City, Tochigi. He worked at the front of the store over the New Year holidays, helping out with serving food and serving customers, and he says, "Many people encouraged me to do my best," giving him strength. "I think if I work hard, more people will come to the store. I'll do my best." One of the best short stop in the university, who was also selected as a University Samurai, is starting a new chapter in his life, carrying the expectations of the restaurant on his shoulders.
