## History

### Early Life

Hajime had a very normal life, with parents who were both Ultimates, and a such pushed him hard to be something, when he really just wanted to find his own place in the world. Despite saying that, he struggled to do so, and his parents quickly took his life into their own hands, signing him up for Hopes Peak's new Reserve Course department behind his back, pulling a favor they had made with one of Hope's Peak's upper staff members. Hajime didn't even know they had done this until he got the acceptence letter, and he didn't even know for what reason he had been accepted. Ever unsure of why he of all people had been chosen, he went to school on the first day having no idea where to go, staring at all the classes meeting for the first time just in the school grounds. Assuming that this had been some sort of prank, he had been about to leave when he was pushed into the school gate by an overly excited Aiko, right into what happened to be his class.

### The Killing School Period 2

Hajime was a paricipent in the Jabberwock island killing game, spending the first few chapters of the game mostly to himself, making himself known as quite the loner. His lack of remembering what his talent made him feel he did not fit in, and in a theory that was quickly proven right, he theroized he had no talent at all. As the game went on, he started to open up more and more with the other members, becoming close friends with Kaito Momota, and unwilling friends with Nagito Komaeda.

He got the despair sickness, and became unable to talk, having to mime out his actions, and lost all sense of awareness during the motive, being locked up in the hosptial under the watch of students like Kaito and Angie. One such bout of sense loss led him to escaping the hosptial, right under Angie's nose, and he tore throughout the island, goofing off and being very childlike, until he ended up at the Music Venu. While there, he found the severed head of Angie, and paniked, he ran back to the hosptial to alert the others. While everyone followed him to the venu, thinking he was just being crazy, Kazuichi Souda killed fellow sick student Clara, whos body was found during the investigation. Hajime blamed himself for these events, knowing that if he never ran off, Kazuichi would never have had the chance to do what he did.

Eventually getting as over it as he could, he continued to hang out with Kaito, and Nagito, while also starting a friendship with Toshiro. It was around this time that Kaito's sickness began to ramp up, and shortly after, Hajime was witness to what appeard to be Nagito's suicide, though it was later found out to have been a farce, planned by Nagito, using the burned body of Kaito, who had up to that point since the suicide, been impersonated by Nagito, something which he felt like such an awful friend for not realizing what was going on.

Eventually, he, Aiko, Toshiro, Kokoro, and Teruteru faced off against the mastermind in a final bout, which resulted in the death of Aiko by way of not voting. In the midst of panic during the aftermath of her death, learned that he and his whole class used to work for the mastermind, as a group called the Ultimate Despair, commiting atrocities after atrocities, before being caught by the Future foundation, and had their memories wiped as a form of rehabiltation. The mastermind Kaende was taunting them with this fact when the survivors of the previous killing game, sans Ibuki, came to their rescue, and blew up the island, seemingly taking Kaende with it.

On the helicopter, he was the most vocal in asking questions, and also accidently pushed fellow survivor Teruteru off of the helicopter into the water below, though luckily, or unluckily, he survived the fall. It was here he found a mentor in seasoned killing game veteran, Shuichi Saihara, and after some talking, became determined to join the future foundation and help save the world.

### Joining The Future Foundation

Hajime joined the future foundation upon arrival, and quickly took a more active role in it then his fellow survivors, who mostly used the foundation for its shelter. He was as such, the only one other than Toshiro present in the debreifing where Ibuki's being missing was found out. He trained with Shuichi and long time member and co-leader, Koichi.

The first mission after he got back, he watched Koichi use the coms, and covered for Ryota's usual spot, as he was on the mission. His first actual mission was an extraction mission with Shuichi, to get a group out of a small house, and it went off without a hitch. Generally though, he stayed on communications if at all, as he did not feel he was really up to the task. After the capture of 'Kanede' he spoke with her about his past, trying to work out what happened to him, to not much avail. He was also present when Yasuke was murdered, and watched as Celete's throat was cut out by Geno, as well as the vote to make Kyoko the new leader.

His avoidence of missions slowly started to change after what happened, and he vowed to go on the next mission. This next chance when Shuichi got stuck with two others on a roof after his helicopter went down, and his coms went down. Hajime helped put together a team to extract him, with Chisa, Kaede, and Syobai, and took charge of the team. While on the mission, in a fight he neglected to shoot an assailent in the head, and resulted in the fight getting far more difficult than killing him would have made it. On top of that he accidently misfired his gun and hit Chisa in the shoulder, and later accidently knocked her out, which was a huge blow to his self confidence. Despite that, he carried on through the mission, killed the kid he didn't finish before, and one other, and joined up with Shuichi, who was with Mikako, one of the two he was on the roof with, and Nikei, who he met along the way, and helped get them to the car and back to base.

### Facing Death

After this, his hesitation to go on missions as a result of his failures during it arose, and it wasn't until after two seperate talks with Shuichi and Sonia that he decided he would go on the next mission. And so he did. The next mission he went on was led by Shuichi, and as Chisa was still in recovery, he had to take up the mantle of driver. During the mission, he and Shuichi were knocked aside by a blast, while an assalient started firing upon the team. After getting up to check on Shuchi, who had a bit of glass in his cheek, he was shot in the stomach by a shotgun, and flew against the wall, and started to bleed heavily. Right after this, the shooter was temporarly disabled.

Bleeding too heavily to be moved, and with a shooter baring down on them, the others retreated, aside from Shuichi who attempted to stay behind to help, only to make the realization that it was futile to do so, and had to leave him there, just as the garage door slammed shut, leaving him alone, bleeding out with the shooter.

Fuled by his comrads making it out, Hajime attempted to do what he could to stop the bleeding, and miraculously, he managed to stop it before he passed out from blood loss. Knowing he had to escape and deal with the now recovering shooter, he opted to blow the garage door open using a gerndade in a car, alerting base he was going to do this with the body cam he had on his person. While attempting this, he grabbed the tarp off the car. As he did this, the shooter ran at him, he fired and missed, and in panic, threw the tarp over his attacker, and shot him threw the neck the next moment. After the shooter was killed, he picked up the tarp and made to continue with his plan when behind him he felt the barrel of a shotgun. He turned around and saw it was a young girl with pink hair. He opted to play dumb and like he wasn't afraid in this interaction, eventually being knocked out and captured by the girl, the body cam still on him at the time.

He was dragged and dragged, coming in and out of being awake, and hearing snippets of conversation. Eventually the body cam was broken. He woke up in a small room, and later encounterd the girl from before after hiding a nail file he found in a box. He played dumb with her more before accidently mentioning the base, which turned out to be the wrong move. After denying to tell her where it was, she sent in a large and powerful looking man to kill him, and closed the door and left. Hajime dodged the first attack, but was hit by a bunch, and slowly drew closer and closer to death, only being able to dodge a few of the attacks due to his injuries. All the while, no matter how bad it got, he refused to accept that dying there was his fate, and continued to evade, even as it seemed hopeless.

He was cornered under the bed when suddenly Mikako burst into the room and began to fight the man. After almost getting choked out, Hajime points out the nail file's location, which they both run for. Things quickly turn bad for Mikako, so Hajime desperate to hellp throws a bedsheet at the man, which prevents a fatal attack. During this distraction, Mikako and the man charge eachother, the man with the nail file, Mikako with a hammer. The man was killed instantly and Mikako was fatally wounded.

Asked to leave her behind and being too weak to carry her, Hajime makes his way out of the room when he bumps into the rest of his team, who had come to save him. After witnessing Mikako's final moments, he is carried by shoulder to the car, and they take off toward base. He currently is in the medical bay reciving treatment for his massive amount of injuries.

When the explosion occurs, Sonia rolls him out, and picks up Syobai and Koichi along the way, making it to the coms room before the building collapsed on them. His current status, along with every other member is currently unknown.

## Personality

Hajime was always someone who never liked to stand out. This feeling only got worse during the killing game, where he was surrounded by Ultimates, and he couldn't remember his talent, eventually learning he didn't have one. This realization only made things worse, even though he had suspected this the whole time, until he eventually learned that everyone else in that killing game also did not have a talent.

After Angie and Clara's deaths, Hajime spirals downward a bit, blaming himself for the death, right as he was begining to start opening up to people, and with the deaths of Kaito and Nagito that followed, he was mostly shut off from most of the other people alive at that point, most of which he considered to be very strange, some even unlikeable, espeically Teruteru and Kokoro, who he avoided constantly.

After learning of his actions as an Ultimate Despair, he was sickend by the atrocities he saw himself commiting, and the thoughts of all the people he had hurt, and his spiral downward was quicked, but he also was determined to not let Kaende win again, and defeat her so that nothing like those atrocities could be committed again.

When rescued by the survivors of the previous killing game, Hajime was determined to get a fresh start and help the future foundation, even if he felt he didn't deserve it, and after extensive talks with the survivors on the way to base, he began to see one of them, Shuichi Saihara, as a bit of a personal mentor.
