Matsuri Hinata

Matsuri Hinata is one of the main characters from the Puella Magi Suzune★Magica series.
== Charactah Account ==
Matsuri is a very cheerful and optimistic girl, often thinking positively and trying to make friends with others; she also always attempts to talk things out with people rather than fight them, and often attempts to dissuade her friends from fighting with others; for example, stopping Arisa from beating up people and attempting to stop her from challenging Suzune to a duel to the death.
Matsuri is also very forgiving, as seen with Suzune — who killed many magical girls to prevent the births of witches — and Kagari — who crafted a revenge gambit to make Suzune's life miserable, and was indirectly responsible for the deaths of all the magical girls Suzune killed.
Not much is known of Matsuri's home-life. She had a sister, Kagari Hinata, an unnamed father, and a caretaker named Tsubaki Mikoto. Not much is given on how Matsuri relates to her family before the events of Suzune. Matsuri used to be blind. It is unknown if she was born blind or how she handled her blindness.

== Trivia ==
* According to tweets from GAN:
** Matsuri has a telephone motif. Her hair buns are the handsets, her braids are the cord, and the round button on the stomach of her dress is the dial.
** She has gauntlets as weapons because GAN wanted to put in the "Shining Finger" move from Gundam, but having it performed against humans would leave a pretty nasty impression (as it's intended to crush the head of targets), so they dropped the idea.
** Matsuri is supposed to be the character the audience can either identify with or support/root for the most in volume 3. This likely refers to how Suzune is anti-heroic and Kagari is the antagonist, with Matsuri being the most traditionally heroic of the three.
* Matsuri speaks in third person in the Japanese text, and is the only Suzune character to do so.
