Anime Relations: Devil Survivor 2 The Animation
This is the Two-hundred-and-sixty-seventh week of using the "Perfect Anime Girl Sheet". Notice: This Blog may contain Unmarked Spoilers.

*Today we join Topaz and his assistants at a local establishment called the "Megane Hut". The female dancers walk between tables in skimpy outfits and glasses, with Topaz and Kimiko staring as they walk by. Ririchiyo and Rika are not pleased.*

Kimiko: Why haven't I heard about this heaven?

I guess it just started earlier this year... WOW, look at that one!

Kimiko: I know, she's a real beauty. I bet those are even PRESCRIPTION glasses!

*Riri coughs*

Riri: Now, I realize that you two are having fun ogling girls, but don't we have something important to do?

Rika: Right! I'm beginning to think you dragged us here just to watch the girls! Do you really think that a girl my age should be seeing naked women like this?

Just because they dance doesn't mean that they're strippers, Rika. This is a PG-13 establishment. The worse that would happen is dancing in revealing outfits.

Kimiko: Speaking of which, where IS your girl for this week?

She should be here any moment. In fact, there she is!

*Topaz gestures towards the main stage full of impact. However, nothing happens. He continues to try and trigger the flag, but she still won't come out. Topaz becomes frustrated.*

Alright, what's happening here? She should at least have been called to the stage. Come girls, we're going to go investigate.

Riri: Are you sure we're supposed to?

Of course, we're protagonists!

*Topaz gets up and is followed by Riri and Rika. Kimiko is slightly more hesitant.*

Kimiko: But there's pretty meganekkos out here....

There's going to be meganekkos backstage as well! Plus you might even catch one... changing!

Kimiko: What are we waiting for then!?

*Kimiko charges even in front of Topaz. Once they arrive backstage, he explains what he's doing to the guard and is allowed to visit today's blog girl. They slowly slide open her door and find a barely-dressed meganekko with her ankle in bandages.*

Kimiko: Whooo! We got to see one getting dressed.

???: AHEM! I AM fully dressed. Though when I was about to get on stage I tripped and sprang my ankle. Luckily I could get back to my dressing room, but I'll let my fans down.

Curses, first my internet was wonky last week and now this! Seems I'm having bad luck for some reason.

???: You have bad luck? I can't dance like this!

Kimiko: No doubt people were counting on you!

Perhaps if you had a replacement to dance.

???: Hmmm, that would also give me time to have you blog about me as well.

Rika: Wait, how did this mystery girl know about your blogs ahead of time?

Riri: I made an appointment, though I still didn't know what kind of establishment this was.

Rika: Oh. That does explain a lot.

Riri is such a good assistant. Perhaps you'd like to help me with another problem?

Riri: What is it this time? I-er, I mean what do you want me to do? (Darn you Ririchiyo, stop being so confrontational when Topaz tells you to do things)

Take Hinako's place. *points to the red-haired meganekko dancer*.

Riri: But you've already blogged on me...

Hinako: Sorry hon, I think he's meaning you should dance on stage.

Riri: B-B-BUT! That's embarrassing!

Rika: Hahaha! You have to dance on stage for those perverts!

Perhaps YOU'D like to join her too, Rika?

Rika: Ahahaha! Good one! W-wait, you're being serious? You are! Do you really think those pitiful PIGS out there really want to claw at a questionably young body like mine? HMMM?

Kimiko: Don't worry, the viewers aren't allowed to touch the girls.

Rika: That's a relief. Wait, how do YOU know that?

*Kimiko looks aside.* I... may have already gotten scolded for it...

Riri: We've been here like half an hour, and you've already gotten in trouble?

Kimiko: I just wanted to read what was written on her tie! Honest!

Really honest?

Kimiko: *looks aside* Noooo....

Hinako: Fufufufu. You four make such a great comedy team. How about you pick out things for the girls to wear, Kimiko. You seem to have an eye for outfits that work.

Kimiko: Don't worry, I'll make sure they look fantastic. *evil laugh under her breath*

Riri: Somehow I feel that we should be worried...

Rika: You THINK?!

*Kimiko escorts the two hime cut lolis out of the room.*

So now that they're gone, how about we get down to business?

Hinako: Hey, I don't know what you've heard, but I don't conduct THAT kind of business. I'm only a dancer.

I actually meant the blog.

Hinako: Oh. My mistake then. Let's get on with it!

Well then readers, as you can tell...



Head
Hair: Hinako has bright orange hair, though it's toned down to a more brownish color for the anime (or maybe the anime just has more shadows). Still, it's not a color I'm fond of but I'm also not as bothered by it as I could be (the brown-ish color helps). She has a upper ponytail (meaning that it sticks up a bit in the back, not in a topknot sort of way) and personally it's one of my favorite styles of having hair up. Of course, I'd prefer it free, but it's still nice looking. The ponytail itself goes about to her mid back, meaning that her hair is probably hip-length when free. Her bangs are a bit of a minus, being M-shaped at her hairline and exposing some of her forehead, but the sides are nice and long. They reach about to her shoulders and provide some well-needed volume to her hair in front. Finally, she wears a white lotus flower on the left side of her head.
Grade: B

Eyes: Hinako's eyes are the same color as her hair, being orange in the games and more brown in the anime. The overall shape is a narrow downward slant, both strong things for me. It makes her seem mischievous and perhaps naughty as well. The only minus, other than the eye color slightly, is that she gets heavily wounded in a battle in the anime. One of the things that is hurt is her eye. While I don't recall if we see anything, she does wear a bandage over her right eye, and I'm not talking about the Chuunibyou sort of eyepatch either.
But we can't forget about her delicious glasses either. They're narrow as well, but considering that they still cover the main part of her eyes I can't complain. In fact, style-wise I'd say that these glasses look fantastic! The visible frames look nice on her face and the blue color contrasts her hair color very well.
Grade: A-

Face: Hinako has a pretty nice face. Nothing too impressive, but she does have somewhat small features (depends on angle, though). She's also somewhat mature, especially with the glasses that make her look like an office worker. Though that's a good thing for me, of course. She can be beautiful at times, but there are girls I find cuter. I do like how the cutscene image of her (I assume) is winking with a cheeky smile. Especially with her finger up to her face in a smug yet sexy look.
Grade: B

Hinako: Hmm, sounds like you find me sexy, but not great. Who are these girls who you say are prettier than I am?

Uhhh, um....

*Kimiko bursts in to the room, letting Topaz exhale from his trick question.*

Kimiko: I'm all done! Look at the girls!.... Girls?

*Riri and Rika remain outside the door.*

Rika: This is embarrassing!

Riri: I have no idea how you even PUT these outfits on us either! It all happened so fast!

Come on you two. I'm sure you look beautiful!

Riri: R-really? Well then, just f-for you Topaz...

Kimiko: That's it, get inside!

*Kimiko even gives Riri and Rika a push inside. Once inside, Topaz and Hinako get a look at their outfits. Ririchiyo seems to be wearing a tight Chinese dress with a VERY short skirt and pantyhose that compliments it well. Rika is wearing just a blue school swimsuit that matches her hair and her name on the tag, thighhighs, and cat ears and tail.*

Kimiko: So what do you two think?

*Topaz stares speechless at the two lolis, doing little more than putting a huge smile on his face and putting his thumbs up.*

Hinako: You've got quite the skills as a designer. Though as a warning, if you can't erase her name off the front you'll have to pay for the swimsuit.

Kimiko: Don't worry, the tag is inside a plastic part and is easily replaced.

Rika: Sure, that's what your worries are. Not that you're going to have girls like us go on stage for you!

Hinako: I'm sure you'll do fine.

Riri: That's easy for you to say!

Kimiko: Let's get going, Topaz needs to finish the blog and you two still need to get on stage!

Rika: But....

Kimiko: Looks fantastic, let's hurry along!

*Kimiko pushes the two out of the dressing room and towards the stage.*

Hinako: Huh, and I wasn't even able to point out the massive flaw. I feel like they'll fail at this.

Sounds like a trial and error gameplay. But enough of wondering what they're up to, it's time to return to the blog!

Body
Build: Not surprisingly Hinako has the body of a st- er, dancer, yes. We don't have any exact measurements, but her chest and hips are wide while her waist is shapely. I'd say that her constantly-exposed navel and waist are strong aspects of her body. The only problem is her clothing as not only is her butt covered by a miniskirt but her legs are also wrapped up in cloth. Judging by her ankles and arms I'd say that her legs aren't especially anything grand. She does seem to have nice hips, being about the size of her shoulders while her chest isn't, but without a good look I can't guess her butt size. And while I say we don't have measurements that's a slight lie; she's 170 cm tall and 48 kg. This makes her pretty tall compared to the other girls and she's about the height of the main protagonist. Though she does have some height on him due to her ponytail, I imagine.
Grade: B

Breasts: Hinako's breasts are pretty good sized and are notably perky as well. That said, it seems like every girl in the series, except Airi, has an ample chest. Hinako at least seems proud of her chest measurement though, and she does show a lot of cleavage and side-boob. Considering her outfit you'd imagine that she has wardrobe malfunctions as well, but nothing happens. I guess she's just packed too tightly, though it also means she doesn't have a lot of jiggle either (something I was surprised about).
Grade: A-

Clothes: Speaking of her clothing, if you can't tell I'm not a big fan. To explain a bit better, her top is nothing more than a short black vest with blue strings on the side. It's so short I can't imagine her being able to close, but then again it could just be skintight. Around her collar is a feather boa-like accessory while her sort-of necktie falls between her open cleavage, the latter of which is my favorite part of her ensemble. She also wears black gloves which are nice for an elegant look and I can see her using a shawl with them. Instead she seems to have a clunky-looking white cloth that seems to be wrapped around her legs several times, hiding both them and her butt. In the game itself this cloth has a bit of a floral pattern. Finally she has a black miniskirt and black heels, both of which could be complimented by pantyhose but aren't.
To explain why I'm not fond of the outfit is a bit complex. As a dancer I imagine that it's a good outfit. Unfortunately it doesn't seem to protect against the elements. Considering that she could be sent to cold areas, I feel bad for her. Another problem I have is that it's her ONLY outfit, at least in the anime. At least Io and Airi got to wear hospital robes during their checkups, but Hinako was gone for that period. Even in game it's commented on, and she refuses to change because without her outfit she'd just be a common girl in glasses but I don't see the problem with that!
Grade: C

Hinako: Cold doesn't bother me at all.

Even when going to Mount Fuji, where it's under freezing?

Hinako: Yeah, no sweat!

I find that hard to believe. It's freezing here even with all my snow supplies! Darn Frozen Vortexes!

Hinako: That sounds like a special move. Good thing I have resist ice!

I wish I did...

*Meanwhile, Riri and Rika run off stage and into Kimiko's arms sobbing.*

Kimiko: Hey, what's going on... Don't be sad!

Riri: They called us curve-less girls and booed us off the stage *sniff.*

Rika: SEE! I knew we couldn't replace such a shapely girl! Our bodies aren't enough for the perverts it seems.

Kimiko: They don't know beauty when they see it then. Here *pulls out handkerchief and starts patting their tears* I'll wipe your...eyes.

Rika: Looks like Kimiko has an idea.

Riri: I hope it's not dressing up in even MORE embarrassing outfits!

Kimiko: No, I see what the obvious problem. Remember where we are?

Rika: A place full of guys with no taste?

Kimiko: I mean besides that!

Riri: The Megane Hut-Wait, are you saying that the guys were booing us simply because we didn't have GLASSES?

Kimiko: Makes sense to me, I personally am ashamed I didn't notice it before.

Riri: *puts on glasses* Alright, I seem to be ready.

Rika: But what about me?

Kimiko: I know *digs around her pockets before pulling out a pair of glasses with thick red frames* Here, use these!

Rika: ..Sure? Though I wonder what the plastic bag is for.

Kimiko: NOTHING! Or maybe something. You shouldn't ask questions you don't want the answer to.

Riri: Well, now that we're wearing glasses they shouldn't boo us off. You ready, Rika?

Rika: *puts on the glasses Kimiko gave her.* As ready as I'll ever be, I guess.

*The two head out towards the stage.*

Mind
Personality: Hinako is the type of character who doesn't refuse to speak her mind. She's very passionate and will scold the player/characters for bad decisions. She does have a soft spot as she'll react to silly choices with a manzai comment. This is probably because she's one of the Osakan characters in the game. She's not the idiotic type though, she's more of the reckless and fiery type. Thinking about it, that does fit her hair color as well xD. She also haggles quite a bit as well, though the anime doesn't show it that well (though it is a hard thing to show). As you can tell by the blog Hinako is also a dancer. She is even studying various styles of dancing from around the world, starting with traditional Japanese dancing. This does come in use when trying to summon Shiva. Interestingly, for all of her enjoyment she originally disliked dancing and was forced into it by her parents.
She's also argumentative, especially with her rival and parallel Airi. You see, Airi is also in the entertainment field (as a pianist). Hinako continues with her purpose of being a dancer, following through with her goals while Airi gave up on her dreams and is somewhat bitter but adapts much better than Hinako. To Hinako, to live is to express yourself.
In game Hinako is a hard character to use. She's best classified as a sweeper, though those without Pokémon knowledge wouldn't know what that means. Effectively, due to her high speed and attack power she should be using moves like Multi-Hit and Multi-Strike (which increase in number of attacks by speed). It's a one-trick pony, sure, but being that once she's strong enough she can rip holes in encounters it really doesn't matter. That said, she is pretty weak defensively, only having good evasion as a defensive ability.
Hinako is voiced by Ami Koshimizu, one of my personal favorite VAs. She just has a mature, sexy voice. She also tends to do "older sister" types as well, which is a character type that I tend to like and, in a way, Hinako is sort of included in that. She at least acts like an older sister to both Io and Airi, not to mention some of the guys as well.
Grade: B+

Libido: Not much of Hinako's libido is really shown in the anime. She seems to enjoy getting attention from her body. There's some interaction between her and Keita but considering it doesn't go anywhere I might just be wishful. Unfortunate for me, it seems like she likes older men. As for the protagonist, I'd imagine her to be at least flirty but her Fate chain is more about the use of dance in the situation than falling in love.
Grade: B-

Age: Hinako is nineteen years old and was born on March Nineteenth. Thus she gets a great score here.
Grade: A

Total Grades: 76
Average score: 8.4
Final Grade: B

And that's the blog for this week!

Hinako: Hmmm, so you'd like me to be more flirty and change my outfit then?

Right, those are the main problems I had.

*Hinako runs her hand up Topaz's thigh*: Well then, perhaps when we meet next I'll wear a dress shirt. Who minds if I look like a silly office worker as you're the only one that needs to pay attention to me...

*Topaz gulps*

*Suddenly an alarm sounds.*

Hinako: What? Did I touch you in some funny way?!

Yes, but continue!

Hinako: Oh... HEY! This is a time to be serious! I think that there's something happening! Take this bat, I'll use my fan!

==Moments earlier==

*Riri and Rika gather all their strength and walk their meganekko bodies up on stage. Instead of boos they're met with cheers that they're finally wearing glasses. This perks them up, at least until Riri realizes something.*

Riri: I have no idea what we're supposed to be doing...

Rika: Neither do I, I thought you knew. *whispers off stage* Pssst, Kimiko. What are we supposed to do?

Kimiko: Try washing the pole!

Riri: Like this?

*Ririchiyo begins to grip the dance pole tightly in her hands, stroking it to the excitement of the crowd.*

Kimiko: Yes, exactly. Though it would be better without your hands!

Riri: Hey!

Rika: I think he means like THIS!

*Rika presses her sukumizu butt against the pole and rubs it up and down.*

Rika: Scrubby Scrubby!

Riri: I get it now. (I should have known I wasn't doing anything wrong...)

*Riri then joins Rika in the butt rubbing, their cheeks jiggling against the other.*

Riri: Doesn't this seem a little TOO perverted for you?

Rika: Perhaps, but I've done far worse with my "Oniisama".

Riri: Oh, that one guy. I wonder where he is?

Rika: Something something horrible Darkness something Momo.

*Riri glares at her loli friend.*

Rika: Hey, it's not like he's here! And even if he was, he'd be too distracted by our awesome butt-pole dancing to say anything!

Riri: I imagine he'll be celebrating if anything...

*Meanwhile, in the crowd.*

Faceless Pervert 1: Those girls are fine dancers and all, but I'd prefer to see breasts bounce! These girls do nothing for me!

Faceless Pervert 2: Yeah, only kids are attracted to girls as flat as plains like that!

*Suddenly the two are picked up and thrown across the room. Riri and Rika continue to butt dance.*

Dandy: You FOOLS! You're the ones who are nothing but BABIES! That's right, babies who've never gotten over their mother's nipple! These two girls have not only braved our judging eyes, but they're performing the dance of legend: the BUTT POLE DANCE! TRUE men love ANY woman who can do that, because women are judged by their buttocks!

*As the two girls continue to rub their rumps on a pole, the next song comes on. Of course, because plot states it, the "Kill Topaz" song plays. The crowd of meganekko lovers crowd the stage and charge past the beautiful lolis. The almost get trampled, but Dandy and Kimiko help lead them to safety.*

Riri: I didn't say this before, but thanks for standing up for us.

Dandy: No problem, those two needed to be taught a lesson anyway! But for now...

*Dandy hits an alarm and leads the others to safety.*

== Backstage==

*Hinako and Topaz get surrounded by a group of perverts.*

Hinako: Watch out, Topaz!

*Battle Transition*

Hey, where's the bat?

Hinako: Did you forget to equip it?

I didn't know I had to!

Hinako: That's what you get for not listening to the tutorial.

I blame Atlus...

Hinako: I don't know who that is, but take THIS! MULTI-STRIKE!

*Knives seem to appeal from Hinako's fan and strike the perverts. They all fall and the battle ends with both members gaining some EXP.*

Hinako: Don't worry viewers, it's like Mother where they only went back to normal.

That's good to hear, I don't want the murder of a ton of meganekko lovers on my hands. And now that that's over, I can finally close out this blog. Thanks for enjoying it, and same to you Hinako.

Hinako: Thanks! Be sure to wash those outfits before you return them too, and when we next meet I hope my ankle is alright so I can show you a "special" dance.

Sounds great! And don't forget readers to check out my friend's first anniversary of his blog as well!
