Hayato Suo (蘇枋 隼飛, Suō Hayato^?) is a first-year student at Furin High School and is a member of Bofurin's Vaisravana Unit. He serves as one of First-Year Grade Captain Haruka Sakura's Vice-Captains, along with Akihiko Nirei. He is considered to be one of the strongest of the first year class.

Appearance

Suo's full body appearance

Suo is a tall young man with brown curtained hair and brown eyes. He is most often seen wearing the Furin High uniform layered on top of a light-colored changshan, loose black pants, and flats in the same color for footwear. Suo also wears a leather eyepatch on his right eye and a pair of yellow tassel earrings hanging off a red gem on either side.

Personality

Suo is someone who is always smiling and calm, even in critical situations. He never shows his irritation, annoyance or any negative emotion. However, he also has a sense of humor and frequently teases his friends. He studies situations and tries to react to them in the right way, in conflicts as well as in situations with certain comrades. His character resembles that of an aristocrat, without entering into superiority, and his fighting style refers a lot to his personality since he never uses his fists, rather his palms. Suo practices martial arts.

Suo states to have an outstanding ability to be able to manipulate people into doing favors, or being able to make people release information. This weirded out Sakura and scared Nirei.

Suo is described as a gentleman by Umemiya, and seems like one at first glance. However, he is very serious when fighting.

Relationships

Haruka Sakura

Suo is Sakura's right-hand man, and the class co-delegate. Suo first met Sakura in Fanatic surprising him by speaking in english. Although he likes to joke and mess with Sakura, Suo's views and opinions on Sakura is rarely shown. However in the battle with KEEL it reveals that Suo finds Sakura (although jokingly) demanding, he is someone he respects and his no match for. During Visit His Home and Visit the Sick Suo was quick to realize Sakura's loneliness and self-isolation. After hearing Sakura's true feelings, Suo wishes for him to familiarize himself with relying on others, showing a deep care.

Akihiko Nirei

Being fellow vice captains, Suo and Nirei have been seen conversing and getting along fairly well. Nirei looks up to Suo, and Suo acknowledges Nirei's capabilities (such as his good memory). As the story goes on, Suo has started to become something like a mentor/instructor to Nirei, teaching him self-defense and the pillbug position in order to protect himself in a fight.

Skills

Mixed Martial Arts

Suo demonstrates an impressive level of mastery in mixed martial arts. His techniques appear to include aspects similar to the Japanese martial art of Aikido. After the fight, Nirei questions Suo about his fighting techniques, specifically asking if what he uses is something like Kung Fu or Aikido. Suo responds that he does not know what exactly it is, stating that the Master which taught this fighting style to him was self-taught, but that he does know that it combines a variety of mixed martial arts techniques.

Evasive Maneuvers

Suo has an uncanny ability to avoid opponents attacks, and has remained untouched throughout the course of the series.

Etymology

• The name Suo means "revived, resuscitated, resurrection" (蘇) (su) and "raft, boat" (枋) (hō). When written together, these kanji also mean "Sappan Wood (Biancaea sappan)" (蘇枋) (suou).
• Suo's given name Hayato means "falcon (Falco)" (隼) (hayabusa) and "to fly" (飛) (tobu).

Trivia

• The Sappan Wood Tree referenced in the kanji used in the name Suo (蘇枋) is used to make Brazilin dye. The color of this dye is very similar to the red color of Suo's hair and eye.
