Hokoto Kusanagi

**Help us Yu!.**

* Civilian
* Magical Outfit

Hokoto Kusanagi is one of the main characters in the PRISM series. She works as a full time Magical Girl for PRISM Corps and is the third to join Katsumi's team.

## Appearance

### Civilian

Hokoto is a young woman with long, straight, chestnut brown hair with grey streaks running through it. She has dark, round, brown eyes with brown, fluffy eyelashes that are normally closed. Her hair frames her face in public, where we see her hair covering her right eye, while at home or with friends it’s brushed to the side. She’s very tall, especially compared to the rest of the group and is also quite slim. She is also seen using a mobility aid when out in public.

For her outfit, Hokoto wears a long, one piece, beige dress that has stylized, red roses running down the sides with a pink, polka-dot part that we see popping out of her greyish-brown hoodie. Her hoodie is pulled up to the middle of her arms and is fluffy on the inside of it. She also wears yellow and brown shoes that strap round her ankle and the bottom of her feet. Her prism is connected to a ring on her hand and is blue and tear drop shaped.

### Magical Girl

Hokotos main color is blue with yellow as an accent. When transformed her hair changes to a very light blonde, with the same length as her civilian form. the hair is more puffed out with some being pulled forward to make the shape of wings as a reference to her main theme being a bird. For her outfit she has a blue one piece that has yellow diamonds on the front and yellow on the insides of the legs. She also has a blue, see-through mesh like fabric that covers her arms and the top of her torso and runs all the way down to her hands, covering the middle finger, it also includes patterned yellow stars all over it. On-top of the mesh there's a fluffy layer of fabric that lies over her arms and continues round her back up to a silver choker on her neck, she also has a similar layer around her waist, both of these are blue on the outside with a bright yellow on the inside. Her shoes are small, blue boots that are half zipped open at the front with a lot of fluff on the inside, they have a stripe of yellow on the bottom of the boot and yellow stars along the top. Based on her and the others outfits and what we know about the magical girl system, we're left to assume Hokoto is one of the strongest in their group (besides Katsumi) because of the amount of yellow on her outfit and how bright it is.

Her prisms name is Umi who's personality seems to be similar to hew own. Their head piece is two wings on the sides of their head and their bottom part is ball with three tear drops coming off it (we see this part of the design on Hokoto on the silver choker).

## Personality

Hokoto is a very reserved and calm person. Hokoto, along with Katsumi, have extremely deep set self worth and image issues and cant stand to see herself as the person she is. (based on the anamatic) We can assume she keeps to her self a lot in her house, even when we see her in public after getting spooked by someone shes quick to get flustered and run as fast as she can back to her home. We then see her curled up to herself, completely isolating herself before her prism shows up. When she is transformed we see her a lot happier, being accepted by the other members of the group she looks like shes at home and opens up a lot more to them. Shes still easily flustered when anyone surprises or touches her but is still alot happier than before. We then see Hokoto actually cooking for herself in her apartment, after showing Neneko, Neneko is overwhelmed and hugs her, from this we can assume before hand, small things like cooking for herself were really hard for Hokoto and this small thing is really important and big for her which is why Neneko is so proud.

## History

June has said that Hokoto was once classmates with Neneko Aino before she went blind; how she became blind is still unknown.

## Relationships

**Neneko Aino**

Neneko is a former classmate of Hokoto’s and they seem to still be good friends. In Hokoto’s intro, Neneko can be seen bringing groceries to Hokoto’s apartment, which could be assumed as an on-going thing as a show of care.

#### **Azumi Urumi**

As stated in a redesign video, Hokoto admires Azumi for her confidence. Not much else is known besides the fact that they must get along. June has joked that they may get clothes at the same place though, due to the similar polka-dot and rose theme.

#### Eimi Tenko

Similar to Azumi, Hokoto admires them for their outgoing and confident nature, but that is all we know.

#### Yū Uyeda

We don't know much about their relationship but the only interactions we've seen so far is Yu latched onto Hokoto asking how many fingers shes holding up (still blind), and in the Yu Animatic, Yu is riding ontop of Hokotos back with her, not looking the most comfortable.

## Trivia

* Her original concept name was Hukuro Kusumoto; Hukuro being a play on 梟 (Fukuro), the Japanese word for owl. This was later changed seeing as how it’s not actually a real Japanese name and more of a pun.
* She is so far the only character with a physical disability.
* Hokoto's prism is called Umi, which means beach or sea in Japanese.
* June joked that her and Azumi get clothing at the same place because of their shared design theming of roses and polka-dots.
* Hokoto is not good at saving energy, meaning she could possibly have chronic fatigue or something along those lines.
