Hakuouki/Characters

The characters of the otome game and anime series Hakuouki. Names are in the traditional eastern order; that is, last name before first name.

Yukimura Chizuru


"Voiced by: Kuwashima Houko"

Chizuru is a young girl who came to Kyoto disguised as a boy in search of her missing father, an accomplished doctor of western medicine with whom she suddenly lost contact several months ago.

When the Shinsengumi reveal that they too have been in search of Dr. Yukimura, they allow Chizuru to remain under their care and assist them with the search. Agreeing to continue living as a boy so as not to distract the men who serve her new benefactors, Chizuru quickly becomes acclimated to their lifestyle, even working for them as an occasional messenger and healer.

- Tropes associated with Chizuru:
 * Ancestral Weapon: Her kodachi.
 * Beautiful All Along/I Am Not Pretty: She considers herself plain, but just watch when she gets shanghaied into dressing up as a maiko.
 * The Chick
 * Curtains Match the Window
 * Die for Our Ship: Interestingly enough, averts this at least in the Japanese community. While there is certainly a lot of Ho Yay fanart, pixiv artists seem to be fond of drawing Chizuru pairings.
 * Disappeared Dad
 * Faux Action Girl: She really doesn't do much with that short sword she carries everywhere.
 * Feminine Women Can Cook
 * Tender Tears: This girl sure does cry a lot. But then, can you blame her?
 * Lampshaded by Hijikata.
 * Happy Flashback
 * Healing Factor:
 * Hime Cut
 * I Just Want to Be Normal
 * I Just Want to Fit in
 * Insecure Love Interest: Particularly in Harada's route.
 * It's All My Fault:
 * Japanese Honorifics: Uses polite speech and addresses most of the characters as [last name]-san, with the exception of Heisuke, who requested that she call him by his first name, and Osen. Appropriate in the case of the Shinsengumi executives, as they are socially superior to her.
 * Mad Scientist's Beautiful Daughter:
 * The Medic: Along with Yamazaki.
 * Narrator
 * Neutral Female
 * One of the Boys: Justified, as there are no women she can hang out with, other than Osen whom she rarely gets to see anyway. Despite being the Yamato Nadeshiko, she grows accustomed to their antics and starts to enjoy their company.
 * Paper-Thin Disguise: Her crossdressing stunt.
 * Player Character
 * Sweet Polly Oliver/Wholesome Crossdresser: Her disguise may be paper thin (see above), but it works just enough for some Shinsengumi executives to be fooled.
 * Values Dissonance / Stay in the Kitchen: As mentioned on that page's Anime section, Japanese gender roles are still very different from that of Western countries. Combine that with the fact that Hakuouki is in a historical setting, which was even more traditional and Chizuru's Faux Action Girl status becomes considerably more justified, or at least understandable: she does want to help, but the historical setting/moment is simply not the best.
 * Yamato Nadeshiko: Although she isn't quite a fully-realized action girl, she wants to protect the weak and tries her damnedest to help others in any way she can, even if not on the battlefield.

Hijikata Toshizou


"Voiced by: Miki Shinichiro"

Vice Commander of the Shinsengumi. He takes care of most of its technical affairs and is said to hold the real power. Very dedicated to the Commander, Kondou.

- Tropes associated with Hijikata:

 * Attack! Attack! Attack!
 * Badass Longcoat: His second outfit.

 * Cluster F-Bomb: He's pretty foul-mouthed in the English release.
 * Combat Pragmatist
 * Death Glare
 * Defrosting Ice King
 * Determinator: Shows the most in his route.

 * Sergeant Rock
 * Shut UP, Hannibal: Hijikata gives no hoot.
 * Snake Oil Salesman: Ishida Sanyaku, the medicine his family sells, doesn't actually work--at least, not to the extent that's advertised. Even so, Hijikata (and Saitou) will swear by it.
 * So Bad It's Good: Okita certainly thinks this in regards to Hijikata's poetry, and will take every opportunity to make fun of the poor vice commander for this.
 * Shinpachi mentions in Sanosuke's route that everyone thinks this in regards to Hijikata's poetry. There's even an unlockable gallery scene that features Okita keeping Hijikata's poetry book away from him.
 * Tragic Dream:
 * Trying Not to Cry: Thankfully, Chizuru is there to do the crying for the entire cast.
 * What the Hell, Hero?:
 * Warrior Poet: Except he's apparently terrible at the poetry part.

 * Glory Seeker
 * Good Old Ways: Even when all his men start dressing up in Western-style uniforms, Kondou does not. Fittingly enough.

 * Tragic Dream:
 * : The Battle of Koshu-Katsunuma.
 * Wide-Eyed Idealist: Downplayed, but he's still a bit too idealistic for his own good.

 * Put on a Bus:

"Voiced by: Toriumi Kousuke"

The serious and reserved captain of the third squad in the Shinsengumi. He is also a kenjutsu instructor and is actually the preferred instructor among the lower ranks, as he is the most patient one.
