Hideki Hinata

Originally Voiced by David Matranga

Hinata is a young man with a bright and dependable personality who becomes the first unofficial member of SSS (he becomes partners with Yuri Nakamura before the founding of the SSS and decides he will follow her no matter what) along with Ooyama (Hinata's human roommate) and he also is the one who started calling Yuri as "Yurippe" because Yuri was his mother's name and he felt strange calling her that. He also becomes Yuzuru Otonashi's friend, and his flirtatious nature causes Otonashi to suspect that he might be homosexual, which he always denies. He sometimes gives nicknames, such as "Yurippe" (Yuri) and 'Shiina-chi" (Eri Shiina). He also once called Ooyama "Yampaii" because he thought it had more personality. He was the first one to use the term "Tenshi(Angel)" when addressing kanade Tachibana He is also the most friendly in the SSS and the most happy-go-lucky in the group. He's cheerful and flirtatious. Although he is friendly to anyone, he is only aggressive to Yui Noda, and Ayato Naoi.

Hinata is often used as a source of comedy throughout the series, one example being his conflicts with Yui and Naoi. Many unfortunate incidents befall upon him, such as when he is kicked down a pitfall trap by Yuri for touching her in the wrong spot in the first shown trip to Guild, being subject to cry out his inferiority to a clothespin, and almost to how easily toilet paper is flushed (both by Naoi due to hypnotism).
