==Summary==
Hōka Inumuta (犬牟田 宝火 Inumuta Hōka) is a main character of Kill la Kill. He is one of Honnouji Academy's student council with an intellect unrivaled within the school. Even back in middle school, he was capable of effortlessly hacking some of the most sophisticated technology on the planet. This genius led to Satsuki Kiryuin wanting to enroll him into her Elite Four, where he now serves as their main strategist. Unlike the other members of his group, Hoka does not care about fighting or being strong, but rather gaining as much research and data on people as possible.

With the Probe Regalia he gains the ability to constantly analyze the opponent, allowing for a constant flow of data about them to be collected, giving him information about their powers and abilities as well as their weaknesses, as well as allowing him to defeat his opponents with a single blow should he gain enough information about them. His technological capabilities managed to shock and anger Ragyo.)
Weaknesses: If someone cuts the Banshi thread of the Probe Regalia. An overflow of data will cause the uniform to overheat. Will willingly sacrifice victory to protect his data.
Notable Attacks/Techniques:
*Probe Regalia: Out of all the Three-Star uniforms, this is the most physically restrained one. With this uniform, Inumuta can analyze anything around him and prepare himself accordingly for the situation. His suit contains keyboards, which he rapidly types on, possibility processing the constant feed of data from his experience with his opponents, as the suit can also store data. Supposedly, if he manages to completely analyze his opponent, his uniform allows him to defeat them instantly, though this has only been shown against a student wearing an experimental Five-Star Goku Uniform. His suit possesses an optical camouflage ability, rendering him invisible. The suit also has a maximum processing capacity that, if surpassed, can cause it to overheat. This can be done by attacking the uniform with extremely reckless attacks, as demonstrated by Ryūko.
**Optical Camouflage: Probe Regalia can generate a camouflage cloak, allowing Inumuta to become invisible for an unspecified period of time. It allows him the ability to attack his intended target with impunity, granted the camouflage is not disrupted, which can be done by dealing massive damage to the uniform.
*Probe Regalia Mk.II: This revamped version of Inumuta's uniform is strikingly similar to his ordinary uniform, although the uniform is now colored light blue and has no curves, making him a polyhedron that resembles data itself. In this uniform, Inumuta can leave behind afterimages while still remaining invisible with his optical camouflage.
*Probe Regalia: Truth Unveiled: The final version of Inumuta's uniform features skin-tight pants, shoulder pieces that also cover his face and chest and a pair of gloves, all of which are black with a light green streaks detailing and connecting the material together. This uniform also sports a pair of large, red goggles and small, wrist-mounted cannons that fire ropes that have been shown to defeat Nui Harime's clones.
