YamadaP is a very talented producer who manages his own private production agency. He does not typically work with ES idols. He is known for his successful revitalizations of failing programs and his stubbornness, living by strong values.2×2 - Grown-Up Situation 2 He produces Volcano Island's recent reboot, a long-standing music program known for bringing success to those who star in the program. He invited one of the members of COSMIC PRODUCTION to star as the program's first idol guest, as the show historically would avoid featuring them. Hinata from 2wink was eventually selected to star on the program. Eventually, Yuta was invited to appear on Volcano Island alongside Hinata so they could perform together as 2wink.
He formerly was a popular top idol, but was unable to stand out for his true individuality, instead choosing to conform to other's expectations and leech off of other people's successes. He would switch up his expression and style to whatever was the fad at the time, and would often switch from band to band depending on who was popular at the time. As a result, he was a talented yet an idol who was not memorable. He eventually switched his profession to producing, determined to use his skills to bring out the individuality in idols so they do not walk down the same path to failure that he did.MIRAGE - Epilogue 1 Due to his previous success as a popular idol, he is well-liked in the industry.MIRAGE - The Most Beautiful Mirror in the World 7 While not revealed, he has a stage name that leaves a strong impression, especially in comparison to his name "Yamada" which is an exceedingly common name.2×2 - Grown-Up Situation 1 Because of his success and being compared to an "active volcano" (活火山, kakkazan), he is from time to time nicknamed "Your Excellency" (閣下, kakka).2×2 - Grown-Up Situation 5
