Kayo Hinazuki

Kayo doesn't have much of a presence in class. Prior to becoming friends with Satoru Fujinuma's group, she didn't have any to call her own and barely spoke to anyone. She considered Satoru and herself as "fakes", as both of them distanced themselves from others, were often irritated by someone's behaviors and had trust issues. This stemmed from her abusive household, as Kayo believed that if she numbed her emotions, her mother wouldn't inflict any more pain onto her. She often dreamed of escaping her cruel life and living on an island far away from society where she could be free. She is extremely blunt and tends to call people idiots, though it's usually directed at Satoru. Following Satoru's rerun in an attempt to save her, Kayo starts to open up to him and is initially uncomfortable of his generosity. When she stays over at Fujinuma's house, Kayo breaks down in tears at Sachiko Fujinuma's kindness, having never experienced an act of altruism. Following Satoru's coma, Kayo frequently went to visit him in the hospital and helped out his mother. The two developed a close relationship and Kayo came to think of Sachiko as her own mother. As an adult, Kayo tells Satoru she managed to obtain happiness and is shown with a smile gently holding her child.
