—Hato Higashikata, JJL Chapter 7

Hato Higashikata (東方 鳩, Higashikata Hato) is a supporting character featured in JoJolion.

Appearance

Hato is a tall, beautiful young woman with straight shoulder-length blonde hair that ends in either arrow point-style hair accessories or her own hair. Her most frequent outfit so far consists of a bodysuit with a laced collar and a spiraling arrow that leads down her chest and points towards her groin. She also wears fancy high-heeled shoes that serve as her primary weapons when coupled with Hato's Stand's ability

Personality

Hato is the eldest daughter of Norisuke Higashikata IV and the second of his four children.

She evidences a degree of narcissism, self-identifying as beautiful. She appears to be a fashion model by profession, having featured on at least one occasion on the cover of "Top M"; either a fashion or women's magazine. It has been implied that she may have bad taste in men, shown by her previous intimate relationship with the unattractive Tamaki Damo. She also displays some childish tendencies, evident in her playful sibling rivalry with younger brother Joshu.

However despite this, when her family is threatened, she reveals a more serious nature when she helps to avenge her friends and family members from the wrath of her soon former boyfriend, Tamaki Damo. She also tends to be prideful and can be overconfident in herself as stated by Damo which made her an easy target for him to seduce and which made it easy for Damo to predict some of her movements though Josuke was able to help her during the fight.

Abilities

Trivia

  • In Japanese, "Hato" sounds similar to the Japanese pronunciation of the English word "heart", keeping with the "card" naming theme of the Higashikata girls, along with her little sister, Daiya.
    • This is also referenced on her Stand's body, which is adorned with multiple hearts.
  • While wearing her bodysuit, she slightly resembles Leone Abbacchio from Vento Aureo.
