Makoto "Edamame" Edamura is the main protagonist of the Great Pretender anime. He is the self-proclaimed greatest con-man in Japan. Hoping to find a high-paying job to pay off his ill mother's medical bills, he landed a job working for Kudo at a company scamming customers. He was arrested and sent to prison, and because his father Seiji Ozaki was a corrupt lawyer, he could not prove his innocence. After being released on parole his reputation and criminal record prevented him from landing an honest job. After his mother passed away, he decided that he wanted to become the greatest con man in Japan with no other means of gaining income. He ends up becoming Laurent Thierry's partner after unsuccessfully trying to con him while on a visit to Japan. He is a member of Team Confidence.
