Hyde Kido

## Summary

**Hyde Kido** (**Unknown Actor**), is the main character of ***Under Night In-Birth*** and its updates.

He returns in ***BlazBlue Cross Tag Battle*** as a playable character and as one of the four main protagonists.

A normal high school student living alone, he was drawn into the Hollow Night, a phenomenon which saw him nearly killed by invisible beings called Voids. He was saved thanks to the timely intervention of Linne, a nearly-century old being in the body of a young girl whom he saved from a common thug back in a daylight, and her ally, the giant Waldstein. The event caused Hyde to awaken to becoming an In-Birth, allowing him to harness the powers of EXS, the source of all things. Grateful, he has since dedicated himself to helping her cause and ending the Hollow Nights for good.

Sometimes in the past before becoming an In-Birth, Yuzuriha Sougetsu, who few years older than him use to be his childhood friend, until they are separated after a “certain incident” where Hyde regretted to remember it.

At time of becoming an In-Birth, Hyde’s luck becoming much worst, such as being followed by Linne’s fallen older brother Kuon and noticed by Amnesia’s leader Hilda, who wants to meet him for a bet in an upcoming Hollow Night War. The worst part is that he is accused by a middle schoolgirl named Nanase for sexually harassing her and transformed her into an In-Birth, even though it was actually her fault for this misunderstanding and the dumb situations she is in, as Hyde was only trying to save her from the Voids attacks on her, by not turning her into an In-Birth, despite feels responsible for her rude behavior. Hyde also adopts Vatista, one of Nights Blade’s old associates to stay in his home until she complete her mission.

* **Vestige of Cruelty [Strict Daze]:** A charged slash (both hands are used).

* **Wicked Vortex of the Torus [Black Orbiter]:** A darkness projectile in the shape of a ring.

* **Black Lotus Blooming in the Abyss [Dark Lotus]:** A follow-up to Black Orbiter, turns the projectile into darkness strings that work somewhat like a wall. If the opponent comes in contact with it great damage is dealt and major knockback occurs.

* **Distorted Aperture [Bend Sinister]:** Another option for a Black Orbiter follow-up. Hyde jumps forward with a large slash with a major knockdown. It can be used to enter a combo.

* **Crimson-Clad Wing of Darkness [Red Clad Craver]:** A Shoryuken but with a sword. Wait? You want a better explanation? Hyde jumps upward facing away from his opponent with his sword swinging from behind. Hyde is open to being attacked while landing.

* **Fault Dividing the Empty Air [Vacant Shift]:** Hyde leaps toward the opponent with a slash, then goes for a two-handed slash that carries the opponent into the air, then finally smashes them into the ground with his sword. Hyde counts his slashes as he does this move.

* **Earth Drilling Shadow [Shadow Scare]:** Hyde turns around and smacks his sword into the ground from behind causing the location where it hit to break apart. A flame then appears at the other end of the hole.

* **Wedge of Sick Crimson Calling the Calamity [Pale Bringer]:** Hyde dashes forward and hits the opponent into the air with his sword and kicks them back to the ground. Normally used as a combo finisher. Can only be used when at max EX.

* **Spiral Cage Alluring to the Demise [Gyre Vortex]:** Hyde spins his sword like a helicopter and then slams it into the ground causing a magma plume to spew from the ground.

* **Savage God's Roaring Howl [Raging Roar]:** Hyde Charges a Strict Daze with wind mixed with darkness gathering around his sword. He leaps toward his opponent with his sword (while shouting the move's name) and a large spread of darkness appears before him. A violent storm mixed with darkness surrounds the foe and deals consistent damage. Afterwards, Hyde needs to catch his breath for a quick moment as the opponent crashes into the ground.
