Hinata Himezuru

""Eh? I had no idea Touya was actually a hero!""

Hinata Himezuru (姫鶴ひなた) is a major character in XBlaze Code: Embryo and XBlaze Lost: Memories. She is Yuki Himezuru's adopted sister and lives together with Touya Kagari.

Appearance
Hinata has the appearance of a pale teenage girl with large brown eyes, fair skin, and short brown hair. She is always seen wearing green glasses and a small floral hairclip on her left bang. In Code: Embryo, Hinata wore a yellow turtleneck jumper with long sleeves, and over this a shamrock green jacket with fur on its cuffs and hood. She wore a long frilly white skirt, striped pink socks, and knee-high shamrock green boots.

In Lost: Memories, Hinata wears a long mint green dress that has a smart white collar and small white frills on its hem. Over this, she wears a lime green jacket and matching boots. When swimming with her friends, Hinata wore a two-piece green swimsuit that had various yellow horizontal stripes over its pieces. If she possesses the Embryo, Hinata's eyes turn a bright blue.

Personality
Selfless and kind to a fault. Hinata is cheerful, optimistic, and friendly to everyone she meets and wants everyone she knows to get along peacefully. She will take strangers into her own home if she thinks they are going through a difficult time, and is studying to become a nurse just so she can help more people who are in trouble.

Hinata seems oblivious to the advances made towards her by Akira Kamewari, and it is heavily implied that she has a romantic inclination towards Touya. She cares a great deal about them both and cook for them without even being asked; Hinata enjoys housework and will do it regularly and efficiently. Hinata has a tight familial bond with Touya and Yuki, often acting as a maternal figure since Yuki is notoriously immature.

Powers & Techniques
As Code: Embryo, Hinata possessed the power of Phenomenon Intervention, which let her alter and remake the world itself. Using it she would undo any tragedies that happened around her and reset time to before they happened. However, doing so would create distortions in the world. Additionally, Hinata did not have control of this power, only using it subconsciously, as the Embryo was in an incomplete state. Once Hinata passed the Embryo on to Es, she lost these powers, becoming a normal human.
