Profile: Hikaru Kurosawa was one a shining light in the darkness, kind and carefree and perhaps a little irresponsible in the face of danger. But after one of Sumaru's rumours created a Shadow Hikaru from all the conflicting information about him, he was kidnapped by his doppelganger and made to serve the interests of a rumour-fueled 'other' D4. A year later, his compatriots rescued him -- but his year in servitude has hurt him greatly. Where has the charming young rogue gone? And is it possible to bring him back?

VIII - JUSTICE

Katsuya Suou
"Is it my fault he didn't notice?"
Hikaru's direct superior and future case study for when he eventually writes a book on all this nonsense. Katsuya is clearly in need of some form of assistance. But as much as Katsuya needed help, he didn't notice when Hikaru needed him -- and Hikaru might resent him, in some dark part of himself, for that.

IX - THE HERMIT

• None

X - THE WHEEL OF FORTUNE

Ran Itoh
"I didn't think her message was even real..."
Hikaru doesn't know Ran -- or didn't, before all this happened. But she was the only one who managed to make contact with his old self while his shadow was at large, and, ultimately, it was her tenacity which saw him rescued. In his eyes, she saved his life, or at least what was left of it to save.

XI - STRENGTH

Enoha Koinose
"Was I really so convincing?"
Hikaru used to trust Enoha, viewing her urge to protect everyone as not dissimilar to his own. Now, he's not sure what to think. Was he really just so terrible that he wasn't worth saving? That's what his brain would have him think.

Jason R. Butler
"He's an entertaining fellow! I'm sure he gives Suou-san his share of heart attacks."
Hikaru enjoys Jason's bluster, but he doesn't think for a moment that he's an idiot American.

Yoko Nakashima
"I think Yoko-chan is amazing. She's a compassionate young woman, even with the problems she's facing."
Hikaru doesn't fault Yoko for not noticing he'd disappeared. She's only a girl, after all.

XIX - THE SUN

Kyo Taimiev
"Look, it's just... I know there's at least one man I've failed in my new job."
Taimiev-san is a danger to society, and he must be stopped. That doesn't change the guilt that Hikaru feels as the presiding psychologist over his entry into the SHU.

XX - JUDGEMENT

Yisa Taimiev
"No - not just one - I don't feel I've done my best with a lot of people. It's -- it's kinda -- it's hard to explain."
The other Taimiev-san whom Hikaru has failed. He didn't know her, before she came in, but everything he's heard - and her actions afterwards - tell him they've made a terrible mistake.

XXI - THE WORLD

D4
"Why?"
Hikaru thought he was doing important work in the Department. Being kidnapped and forgotten for a year, however, has warped his opinion somewhat. Perhaps what he was doing was important, but... apparently he wasn't.
