Hanamiya, with the number 9, was on the bench for the most part of the match and finally entered the game at the end of the fourth quarter. Hanamiya went to the same middle school as Shoichi Imayoshi where their relationship during this time is unknown.Īt the Interhigh preliminary finals last year, Kirisaki Daiichi played against Seirin High. He uses his intelligence not only for school, but also to analyze the possible attack patterns of basketball, the reason why he can steal the ball during any attack. His intelligence has been noted by both Kentarō Seto and Shoichi Imayoshi. Hanamiya is a genius with an exceptionally high IQ (well over 160). He also stated that he doesn't particularly want to win that badly with his foul methods and that it was simply to make the other suffer. He says that he thinks it's fun when other people's hopes and dreams are crushed, and also likes to taunt Kuroko and Seirin High in general. He replied that he simply enjoys the suffering of others. Hanamiya's sadistic nature was further explained when Tetsuya Kuroko asked for his motives. He also doesn't like things when it didn't go his way. With this he means that it doesn't matter how good they are, if his team can break him, then it won't matter at all. He is also of the thought that whether it be genius or prodigy, once broken it will just be garbage. When he gave the sign for Teppei Kiyoshi's 'execution', he said to himself 'Rest In Peace', which gives him a very sinister personality and appearance. He doesn't deny his tactics, and in fact Hanamiya is an excellent actor and many have been fooled by his sportsman-like behavior. He uses dirty tactics to foul players out, sometimes even forcing them to stop basketball for some time. Hanamiya can develop an underhanded plan and make them execute it as asked. He plays with the Jersey number 4 on his team.

His eyebrows are considered to look like tadpoles (aka a bushy browed spider). He has his hair parted with some locks between his eyes. He has almost shoulder-length, dead black hair and greyish brown eyes. He has pale skin and is usually seen with a wide, arrogant smirk on his face.
