Hi, my name's Yū, I come from the nearby town, but I like to play here a lot.
― Yū, Gekijōban Dōbutsu no Mori


is one of the main characters in Gekijōban Dōbutsu no Mori. He is first seen when Ai was delivering a package to Halberd (Alfonso). Yū is widely known among the villagers of Animal Village for his daily outfit changes. Yū's face was not seen until the last part of the movie. He does not live in Animal Village, but visits often, shown by his first conversation with Ai. Since his town only gets a brief mention, it is possible that his town is the infamous Boondox. Another possibility is that he lives in Treehut.
