Hikaru Kamiki/Plot

## History

Much of Hikaru's past remains a mystery. According to Akane Kurokawa's research, he was once an aspiring actor who joined the Lala Lai Theatrical Company when he was 10 years old. When he was 11, however, he was molested by actress Airi Himekawa, who was already a married adult at the time, impregnating her with Taiki Himekawa. At some point afterward, Seijuurou Uehara (Airi's husband) learned of this and of Taiki’s paternity that he subsequently committed murder-suicide with her. Since only Airi and himself knew about the molestation, Akane theorized that Hikaru leaked that information to have her killed without leaving any incriminating evidence.

Hikaru continued studying at Lalalie for the next 4 years. When he was 15, his affiliation with the company led him to meet a 16-year-old Ai Hoshino, who was taking acting lessons there to start her idol career. The two subsequently began a secret relationship, even sleeping together. However, Ai ultimately broke up with him after she saw through his "true nature".

Through unknown means, Hikaru learned that he had impregnated Ai with Aqua and Ruby during their relationship. Since only he, Ai, and Ichigo Saitou could have known about the pregnancy, Aqua would later theorize that he tracked down the hospital where Ai would secretly give birth and leaked this information to an absessive fan in hopes that he would kill her before she gave birth.

Upon turning 16, Hikaru suddenly left Lala Lai and went on to graduate from a science course instead. However, he returned to the entertainment industry after turning 25 by founding his own talent agency, Kamiki Productions. From there, he would eventually meet the popular actress Yura Katayose, whom he became drinking buddies with.

## Prologue

Ai Hoshino contacted Hikaru roughly a week before her birthday, asking him to meet Aqua Hoshino and Ruby Hoshino after overhearing them talking about their father. It is implied that Ai gave him her new address.

Following Ai's death at the hands of Ryosuke Kaihara, Aqua deduced that the otherwise ordinary college student could not possibly have figured out her secret address. Since the other people who knew this information did not have any real motive to have Ai killed, this caused Aqua to conclude that his father (Hikaru) leaked her location to have her killed off whilst leaving no traces back to him.

## Private

Before going to Miyazaki for the B-Komachi music video shoot, Ruby Hoshino paid her respect to Ai Hoshino's grave and Hikaru passed by her, muttering to himself about how beautiful Ruby has grown. He then stood in front of Ai's grave and affirmed that she grew to be beautiful because she was his and Ai's child.

## Mainstay

During the Japan Film Awards event, Hikaru passed by Akane Kurokawa and she almost mistook him as Aqua Hoshino.

## Movie

Hikaru appeared as a drinking buddy to actress Yura Katayose, referred to as "Miki-san", and listened to her rant regarding her work offer declining due to her getting older. She also revealed to him that she would take a month off to go hiking in a mountain, and Hikaru warned her to watch her step. Later on, Hikaru stood over the dying actress, implied that he pushed her off a cliff and taunted her for not "watching her step". Since then she went missing and could not be contacted.

In the upcoming movie 15 Year Lie, he is portrayed by his own son, Aqua Hoshino.
