Hitoshi is, by nature, a nervous and insecure person. He doubts himself at every turn, apologizes more than is necessary, and usually prefers to concede an argument rather than allowing it to escalate. At home, he is quite busy.

So while he can become nervous and stressed easily, he is nevertheless a responsible person.

=== Keiko Matsuda ===
Keiko and Hitoshi met the summer before beginning their tenure at Hope's Peak. Having found each others' names online and realizing they didn't live far apart, they decided to meet up and introduce themselves. Hitoshi was very intimidated by Keiko's confidence, and as such, he behaved somewhat deferentially to her. She offered him a tour of her lab, during which she stopped to get some work done and requested Hitoshi's assistance in gathering materials. After this, Keiko began referring to Hitoshi as her "lab goon".
Over the course of their year at Hope's Peak, Keiko roped Hitoshi into helping her with numerous experiments and fact-finding missions. Hitoshi quickly grew tired of this, especially because she tended to treat him poorly. He started avoiding Keiko when he could. After the end of the year beach party, the two went to Hitoshi's dorm room. There, he snapped at her, calling her out for her poor treatment of him. He also told her that he did not plan to return to Hope's Peak the next fall, saying he felt out of place there. When Keiko didn't seem to understand him, Hitoshi wondered out loud why he bothered talking to her about this. Keiko then pointed out to him that she was his only friend at the school. He became upset and demanded that she leave, saying he never wanted to see her again. She left, and he sat in his room, deeply hurt, in no small part because he knows she's right.
The next day, Vivian alerted Class 4 of her brother's plans to bomb the school. Hitoshi split off from the group that escaped, and unfortunately, he and Keiko would never meet again.
=== Ronnie Takayoshi ===
Ronnie is the only other student besides Keiko who Hitoshi felt he befriended. Due to their generally warm and open personality, Ronnie was someone who the nervous Hitoshi felt comfortable speaking with. They spent casual time together a few times in the lounge and gaming room.
Hitoshi developed a small crush on Ronnie, though he never acted on this feeling.
