Yorueka is a young shepherd who travels to Elegia to attend Uta's concert in One Piece Film: Red. Devoted to his flock yet drawn to her music, he becomes one of the fans whose ordinary obligations clash with Uta's promise of a perfect dream world.
Yorueka is a small boy crowned with a mop of dark green hair, his face dotted with freckles beneath heavy brows. His outfit is that of a working farmhand: a yellow tee paired with worn orange overalls patched in gray, and a plain pair of brown shoes.
A genuine admirer of Uta, Yorueka cared enough about her singing to make the journey to Elegia, yet he never let fandom override duty, planning to head home early so his sheep would be looked after. He shared the broader crowd's deep mistrust of pirates, and learning that Uta was Shanks's child shook his faith in her. That suspicion did not harden into blind hatred, though, and he came to see her as nothing like her father. Even after she trapped so many fans, he kept her songs in his life, playing them as he worked.

Naruto vs Luffy with the twist nobody asked for: Luffy tickled Hinata on date night, and she kind of liked it. We break down the whole fight and commit to a winner....

When I first decided to commit to watching One Piece seriously, I knew I was embarking on one of anime's longest and most beloved series. With over 100...
At the Elegia concert Yorueka cheered through Uta's opening number, New Genesis. When Luffy exposed her parentage, the boy and a nearby man reeled at the news that a famous pirate, in his words a major villain, had fathered her, though her thrashing of the Big Mom and Jellyfish crews won him back over. Later he readied a small boat to return and tend his flock, thanking Uta for the show. She urged him to remain and questioned why he would choose a hard life, but the conversation broke off when Koby revealed the truth of the Uta World. As the audience argued over staying, Uta turned everyone near her into toys. Once released from that world, Yorueka went back to his hometown and resumed caring for his sheep, her music still playing in the background.
