Character Information
Name: Hanako Ikezawa
Source Canon: Katawa Shoujo
Age: 18
Role In Canon: One of five romanceable girls; major character in at least one other route.
History: Here. Taken from a route where Hisao doesn't romance her or Lilly, she doesn't really have much of a presence outside of the first act.

Personality: "Shrinking Violet". A timid, almost painfully shy person who avoids others as much as possible and is extremely withdrawn. This is Hanako in a nutshell! On multiple occasions, Hisao compares her to a rabbit; skittish, and ready to bolt at a moment's notice. In fact, the very first thing she does when Hisao talks to her for the first time is run away. She's afraid of people, crowds, and social interaction in general, and this attitude isn't exactly unwarrented.

A victim of bullying from the time of the accident that left much of her body scarred up until (and, it's implied, including) her transfer to Yamaku, Hanako vastly prefers to go unnoticed by the general population. She often hides in the library when she's not spending time with Lilly, and even leaves class early to avoid crowds. Loud, intimidating, or forceful people frighten her, and more often than not she'd hide behind someone to escape, should running be out of the question.

That being said, she's not entirely antisocial. She is capable of making friends, like the Satou sisters, and Hisao in her own or Lilly's romance routes. Should someone gain her trust, she begins opening up little by little. She's still timid, but it's less likely you'll find her faltering and stuttering. She truly begins to shine when playing games; her chess matches with Hisao, and later their pool game in the city, take her a long way. As long as she has something to focus on other than the other person, she'll be fine!

That being said, she hates being coddled. It's true, that you need a gentle hand to befriend this nervous girl. Being patient with her is what really helps her bring her out of her shell. But, like every other student at the school - and everyone in general, really - she just wants to be treated like a regular person. In her route, she was so desperate to have Hisao think of her as more than just a child or someone in need of protection that she has sex with him, hoping to change his mind. And in the Bad End of her route, if he doesn't take Lilly's advice to stop treating her that way, Hanako will call him out on it herself, yelling at him and telling him how much she hates him.

Speaking of hate... she has a lot of loathing directed towards herself. She's the only one that survived the housefire that killed her family, and her mother actually shielded her with her own body. She has immense survivor's guilt, to the point where she thinks she shouldn't even exist. It's even gotten to the point where she hates her own birthday, just because it's... well. Her birthday. The day when her self-loathing reaches it's peak. Everyone does their best to pay attention to her and make sure to show that she's loved, but she can't even accept that these feelings are genuine, and expresses displeasure at how "they wouldn't let her" pretend she didn't exist.

So yes. In conclusion, Hanako is an incredibly troubled, lonely girl who is fine being ignored by society, but deep down really wants someone to love her.

Abilities: Nothing! Absolutely nothing. Hanako is a 100 percent human, normal - though badly scarred - high school girl.
