Hayate X Blade - Characters

Characters

Hayate Kurogane (黒鉄 はやて, Kurogane Hayate?)

Voiced by: Kurumi Mamiya

The main character of the story. She attends Tenchi Academy in place of her twin sister. She is well-meaning, but very stubborn and clumsy.

Nagi Kurogane (黒鉄 ナギ, Kurogane Nagi?)

Hayate's twin sister. She cannot attend school because of her rehabilitation, so she asks Hayate to pretend to be her and attend Tenchi Academy.

Ayana Mudō (無道 綾那, Mudō Ayana?)

Voiced by: Satsuki Yukino

One of the best students in Tenchi Academy, but at the beginning of the story she chooses not to fight. Hayate wants to be her partner, but Ayana finds Hayate to be annoying.

Hitsugi Amachi (天地 ひつぎ, Amachi Hitsugi?)

Voiced by: Akiko Yajima

The president of the student council, faculty director, and administrator. She cares very much about the academy's tradition of sword-fighting. As such, she is frustrated with Ayana's lack of desire to participate in the sword duels.

Shizuku Miyamoto (宮本 静久, Miyamoto Shizuku?)

Voiced by: Miki Nagasawa

The partner of Hitsugi, Shizuku is also in charge of ringing the bell that signals the start and end of the hoshitori. She is always seen by Hitsugi's side, only leaving to ring the bell. She is also incredibly fast, though Hitsugi wonders who is faster-her or Hayate.

Momoka Kibi (吉備 桃香, Kibi Momoka?)

Voiced by: Makiko Ōmoto

Hayate's roommate, Momoka is an energetic girl who initially hides during the hoshitori due to not having a partner. She usually gives Hayate advice on how the system at Tenchi Academy works. She eventually pairs up with Isuzu.

Isuzu Inugami (犬神 五十鈴, Inugami Isuzu?)

Voiced by: Mamiko Noto

A rather creepy girl originally resembling a yūrei who appears in volume two, she is first seen 'haunting' Momoka in order to become her shinyuu. After becoming partners with Momoka, she gets a makeover that makes her less frightening. She seems to have quite an interest in the occult.

Jun Kuga (久我 順, Kuga Jun?)

Voiced by: Megumi Toyoguchi

Ayana's roommate, Jun is a rather playful girl who enjoys teasing Ayana though this usually earns her a beating. She cares very deeply for her shinyuu Yuho Shizuma, her half-sister.

Akira Mikado (神門 玲, Mikado Akira?)

Voiced by: Junko Minagawa

A rather cool and proactive girl, she is Inori Sae's sister-in-arms who seems to have some plans regarding the hoshitori duels, and wants to defeat Hitsugi Amachi with her own hands. She seems to be easily annoyed when other people get too close to her, and appears to be insensitive (as Sae describes her), but actually is the opposite as shown in later volumes. She seems to care deeply for others, but does not show it and even denies it. She seems to be as powerful as the student council president, Hitsugi. Hayate sees her as a mentor.

Sae Inori (祈 紗枝, Inori Sae?)

Voiced by: Shizuka Itou

A rather calm and cool girl, who is actually very skilled and very fast, and is often compared to Shizuku (Hitsugi's shinyuu). She is Akira's shinyuu or sister-in-arms. Though they are often seen together, she actually likes to tease Akira a lot. She is actually engaged to one of Akira's relatives. She is Akira's partner in her plan of defeating the student council president and her shinyuu, so that they can 'change' things the way it was meant to be.
