Yū

"Hi, my name's Yu, I come from the nearby town, but I like to play here a lot."

- Yu

Yu is one of the main characters in, being the only male human. He is first seen when Ai was delivering a package to Halberd (Alfonso). Yu is widely known because he changes his outfit daily, and, until the last part of the movie, never shows his true face. He may be a reference on how in the games, a person could connect through Wi-Fi, so players from other towns can come visit their town. He does not live in Animal Village, but visits often, shown by his first conversation with Ai, "Hi, my name's Yu, I come from the nearby town, but I like to play here a lot." Since his town only gets a brief mention, it is possible that his town is the infamous Boondox.
