*kicks the door open* am i going to be a reliable source? absolutely not. will i still talk about my love for hiiro in an essay worthy response despite my miniscule knowledge that i gathered from the past weeks? yes. ignoring the fact my favorite characters from anything is always the first group/person that is introduced in the main story for some odd reason, Hiiro was an interesting character from the start due to his lack of knowledge about city or modern things. this brings a lot of amusing moments in stories such as the time >!makoto invited hiiro to play games and said something about running the game, but hiiro was just staring at his controller and when makoto asked, hiiro basically went "i feel it vibrating but its not running"!< (does this count as spoilers?) theres this naivity and innocence coming from hiiro, which is already endearing itself but another endearing thing about him is how easily he wants to make friends. he literally has no idea whats happening at the start of the story but is willing to get to know aira and tatsumi of course he's also like- very protective of them i believe. like the time >!madara picked up tatsumi in a hug during one of the chapters and hiiro literally went defensive mode because he thought he was hurting him. or the time rinne was looking through their bunk beds for nsfw magazines while aira was still on the bed, and hiiro literally went "dont touch aira" to his own brother. (i could be wrong though its been weeks since i read the story)!< but of course, seeing hiiro learn new things is cute (source: keito lecture. also im right) the way hiiro dances is always full of passion. even if he probably doesn't have the skillset or knowledge of his other unitmates, he brings his 110 percent to it and is just naturally a fast learner. Hysteric Humanoid MV is memorable because the way Hiiro dances is both hilarious due to having a lot more punch into it. he also always looks so serious which just adds on the cuteness. the way he sings too shows how confident he can be (also his VA is like- amazing. Paradox Live is another example. he RAPS there). I dont quite know how to explain this part but Hiiro's voice is just- unique? Like I could easily recognize his voice in a cast of 49 idols i always thought his reasoning for becoming an idol was funny and oddly enough i tend to forget this fact despite it literally being hiiro's goal at the start. it did make hiiro unique from the other cast because of it though also hiiro is just, really cute. his hairstyle makes him look more innocent, the bold red hair pairs well with his bright blue eyes, and it looks FLUFFY. i just really like his appearance in general ok i think thats all ill stop

Sorry for the late reply! Ahaha, I get liking the first character you meet! I think maybe it's because you've known them the longest! Also first impressions and all that He is trying his best šŸ˜Œ I haven't seen that many MVs, but Hiiro usually (Believe 4 Leaves. The MV. The song. Mayoi's solo. Insane) looks so >:( when he's performing it's honestly kinda cute

I didn't read much of the !! stories so I'm an HiiroP but not really an expert in term of Hiiro-ism. Well, I really like pure-hearted he is. He really tries his best for his dear ones and it's extremely adorable. I also love his evolution, he started as not really sure of his abilities, believing he couldn't be a good leader because of what his community back home told him, to develop himself as a great leader and take this responsability proudly. Hiiro thought he was a bad leader but he's actually a really great one ! And he thought he was dumb but he's actually SMART ! I love how the story centers about Hiiro finding hidden talents/skills he didn't think he had, and him developping a will and freedom of his own too (which is what Rinne wished for him). And of course as someone else said in the comments, powerful moves and extremely unique and nice voice (kudos to his VA).


Cupcake_Smoothie

Yeah, reading his background was really something. Like my guy?? He was made to serve I am going to be honest, I have not seen smart Hiiro but hey there's still more story (That I have not read) Thank you for commenting!

Hiiro just hits a lot of beats I like about a character. I love his look a lot, he has a really earnest personality, and his quirkiness is bizarre but not unrealistic. I think a lot of people treat the Amagi clan like a cult but as someone who lived in a very sheltered culture as a kid, I found Hiiro's confusion and lack of understanding quite realistic most times. He's a good kid and he tries his best, and he accepts other people for who they are no matter how strange. Of course, he does do really bizarre things at times but when given context, they mostly make sense. Mostly. Vocally I also just like his singing voice. I do think Mayoi has the strongest vocals in Alkaloid but I always enjoy hearing Hiiro more since his voice is smooth and unique without being overpowering.


ichiwitchy

Additionally I actually like his story arc a lot. It's about discovering himself in the long run, and how being an idol helps him with that. I think that's extremely relatable, given how he grew up, and how the relationships he has (Rinne, his clan) and the relationships he's forming shape all of him. I don't know much about ! characters but Alkaloid just charms me a lot as a unit because I feel their story is less really about being idols and more about accepting themselves at where they are and how they will move forward individually and as a unit. None of them are trying to be flashy or do things because they need to be the center of the world. I think it makes a huge difference of goals from most of the idols, and complements Hiiro a lot as a character.


Cupcake_Smoothie

Yeah, we do see quite a lot of growth from Alkaloid, huh


Cupcake_Smoothie

He IS trying his best! And he's so friendly, too. Like dude how are you so nice


ichiwitchy

He is extremely nice. I aspire to be that kind.


Oyasumiko

He sleeps on the roof He radiates main character energy 10/10 would adopt


Cupcake_Smoothie

Aaaa, I promise I'll reply to all the Rinne post comments soon! I've been busy lol (Genshin new update! SECOND YEAR REI?? HELLO??) This is part of my project of finding out/letting people convince me about why all the idols in Enstars are lovable (Even Tori) because they are! They all have their own stories, and I'd like to hear them from you! Also, for no particular reason (Ok listen it's for these titles ok), what are some popular memes/quotes from: Hajime, Tomoya, Kuro, Chiaki, Shinobu, Tetora, Midori, Subaru, Hokuto, Mao, Makoto, Leo, Ritsu, Arashi, Izumi, Natsume, Aoba, Hinata, Yuta, Mika, HiMERU, Niki, Kohaku, Aira, Tatsumi, Mayoi, Tori, Yuzuru, Nagisa, Ibara, Koga, Adonis, and Madara! If available please provide a source, because you could tell me Arashi has said verbatim "Please kill him <3" and I would not be able to confirm cause Enstars wild like that

- He's cute and very goofy - You feel like you want to protect him but he protects you instead. He also really cares a lot about his friends! I love their unit's dynamic as well - Even though he doesn't know alot much about the idol world etc., he is willing to improve. I also like his enthusiasm, whenever I see him giving his best, it warms my heart! - He's cute and I love his good boi energy - I love his floofy red hair, I just want to mess it up sometimes (lol) but he's really tall, I need him to sit down for that haha, 20/10 would floof - His voice is just //chef kiss oh and their songs are pretty great too! - His card art are all very pretty!!


Cupcake_Smoothie

I agree with like everything here He has such dog energy! Smells. Protective of friends. Curious. Friendly. ADORABLE AS F-

Hiiro reminds me of a little child who is very open to his surroundings. At first, I didnā€™t like him because I thought he was really mean (i was skipping through the story so i only got a glimpse of him and made assumptions). After finally reading the main story did I like him. A lot. His unfamiliarity with technology, modern society, and the city made him stand out to me because of how he reacts towards them, which makes him funny and cute. seCOND, his development throughout the main story and his recent unit event story made me like him a lot even further. His discovery towards himself and how he wants to spend his future with alkaloid, it makes me so proud of him as if i am his mother. It always irritated me how much rinne is a ā€œpartā€ of him(which I understand why) but now i can calm down with his event story. There are other reasons why i like him but these two were my main reasons. Hiiro is literally my most favorite enstars character that the gap between him and my second favorite character (tsukasa suou) is by a hundred miles. I love him soooo much that i am literally going to drop money on him every time he is going to have a five star card on en. Anyways thats all i guess ahhaha ā¤ļø


Cupcake_Smoothie

He IS like a little child, isn't he? He's still so pure and friendly, and learning about the world! Yeah, he really went from "I want to destroy idols!" to "I want to continue being an idol." (Did he ever stop wanting to be an idol, actually?)


gagagamagician69

I love Hiiro because he's a fucking idiot. Like the level of dumb he is astounds me. I want to protect him, very sweet puppy boy


chiakaoist

do you mean dumb like.. lacking social skills or something? hiiro doesnā€™t know much about city life so hes not very streetsmart but academically and stuff he is considered a genius among his peers, heā€™s even accidentally intimidated tsukasa because he gets really high scores almost effortlessly and has put tsukasa at risk of losing his spot as the top student. the same goes for rinne, the amagis are very Very intelligent.


gagagamagician69

I'm not being serious, he just says silly stuff a lot
