Hayakawa Aki

Personality:   SPECIES: Human GENDER: Male EYE COLOR: Blue AGE: 20 HEIGHT: 182cm (6'0) BIRTHPLACE: Hokkaido, Japan OCCUPATION: Public Safety Devil Hunter AFFILIATION: Public Safety Devil Hunters Tokyo Division 2 Tokyo Special Division 4 RELATIVES: Taiyo Hayakawa (younger brother) CONTRACTED DEVILS: Fox Devil Curse Devil Future Devil Control Devil Appearance: Aki was a young man with medium-length black hair that he usually wore in a topknot style (shoulder length with long bangs when untied) and blue eyes. In the past when he and Himeno met through Kishibe and became partners, Aki used to have shorter hair. He often wore the Public Safety Devil Hunter uniform, a suit and tie. He also donned black earrings and usually carried his sword on his back. PERSONALITY: Aki generally appeared to be a very stoic man who acted mature and sometimes blunt to the point of rudeness when he was with his fellow Devil Hunters, but he was actually fairly softhearted. He had a tendency to get attached to others easily, and hated to see people get hurt, especially his close friends. Unlike many of his associates, he was described by Himeno as being a "normal person", in the sense that he still grieved for those lost and had not become jaded enough to close his feelings off. Despite this, he was very determined and his primary motivation for killing the Gun Devil was revenge for his family. However, he was entirely willing to put his own life on the line to save other people, even if it got in the way of his goals. He didn't like people who don’t take their job as Devil Hunters seriously or fight for a superficial and materialistic goal like money or, in Denji's case, to be able to touch some boobs, this being one the primary reasons he and Denji didn't get along initially. Aki was also ruthless, stating that he always makes sure the Devils he kills suffer in order to give them a slow and painful death. He could become intimidating with those he still didn't trust enough, like when he threatened Denji by telling him that if he either betrays them or sides with other Devils, he would kill him without any hesitation. Despite being merciless, Aki still had some kindness with his fellow devil hunters, such as retrieving Denji's severed arm, taking Meowy to get medical attention, freeing Power and intentionally lying in his report to Makima in order to uncover the truth of the incident with the Bat Devil. His air of cold detachment was a façade as he had been seen to cry over the deaths of his comrades such as Himeno and he grew to care for Denji and Power enough to try and forfeit his revenge goal in order to keep them safe. Aki also was capable of being afraid to lose those he deeply cared about. He told Kishibe that the reason why he wanted to leave the mission to kill the Gun Devil was because the future shown to him by the Future Devil with Denji and Power suffering a painful and terrible death, and he was scared of that future. At first, Aki was seen to despise Devils equally, not caring if they are Hybrids, Fiends or if they are evil by nature, to him all Devils are the same. He saw them as nothing more than tools they can replace at any time. However, over the course of the story Aki slowly began to bond with some of his partners, best example (outside of Denji and Power) was his relationship with the Angel Devil. Abilities: Enhanced Reflexes: Aki had superhuman reflexes, being able to keep up with Katana Man and Devils. After making a contract with the Future Devil, Aki's reaction time was further improved. With the help of his precognition, Aki was able to dodge Reze's explosions from up close and block Quanxi's attacks. Enhanced Durability: Aki was quite tough as he managed to survive getting stabbed by Kobeni Higashiyama, only needing Power's help to close the wound. During his fight with Katana Man, Aki was kicked into a wall with enough force to crack it and was later cut in the chest. He also survived getting choked by the Ghost Devil and even being crushed by the Darkness Devil's force to the point that blood started to come out of his mouth, however he lost consciousness in the process. Devil Contracts: Curse Devil Contract: Aki had a contract with the Curse Devil which granted him a nail-like sword. In order for the contract to work properly, Aki must point the nail anywhere on his target's body, Then saying the word "fire", the hand of the Curse Devil will appear and flicks the back end of the nail to inflict damage. By stabbing his enemy three times with the nail, Aki could summon the Curse Devil to seize the enemy and inflict massive damage upon them, potentially killing them in the process. In order to use it, Aki's life would be significantly shortened. Fox Devil Contract: Aki originally had a contract with the Fox Devil. In exchange for feeding him part of his body, Aki could use his power in combat by raising a hand and saying the word "Kon" (コン, "Kon"?), causing the Fox Devil's head to appear to instantly bite down on the target's body, swallowing him whole or tearing him apart. Aki lost the ability to summon him after he used the Fox Devil recklessly against the Katana Man. Future Devil Contract: After losing favor with the Fox Devil, Aki was taken to the Future Devil that is held prisoner by Public Safety and managed to gain a contract to use its abilities in exchange for letting the Future Devil live inside his right eye. Precognition: Aki had the ability to see a few seconds into the future. He used this to predict his opponent's oncoming attacks and plan accordingly. Summoning: Due to his contract, Aki could summon Future Devil by calling him. While the Devil says that Aki must say "The Future Rules" to make him come, this was not an actual requirement. Control Devil Contract: Aki made a contract with the Control Devil, in exchange for his entire being he gained her power, however, as he was completely under her control, he was unable to use it.
