Hibiki Tachibana (Another)

Hibiki Tachibana is an alternate version of Hibiki Tachibana from the original world, she is 15 years old, with her birthday being September 13th. She formerly wielded the Gungnir relic before switching to Elekleid, making her unique among Symphogear users as someone who transitioned from divine relic-based armor to scientifically engineered combat technology.

Hibiki has orange eyes with short light brown hair fastened on either side of her head with distinctive red hair clips that she changes to orange ones that were a present from Miku, her blood type is O, and she stands at 157 centimeters in height. Her measurements are 84-58-86 centimeters for bust, waist, and hips respectively. Her overall presentation tends toward a more disheveled and worn appearance reflecting her harsh lifestyle. Her facial expressions typically convey coldness and distance, with her eyes often appearing sharp and guarded being less open. She has a scar on her chest in the shape of a forte symbol from when Kanade's Gungnir fragment pierced her during the Zwei Wing concert. Her physique is lean and athletic from constant combat against the Noise, though she lacks robust support systems, resulting in a slightly more worn and battle-hardened appearance.

Hibiki initially wears a grey sweater with white lines on her shoulders and a hoodie, followed with a pair of denim shorts and orange shoes, giving her a casual street-wear aesthetic. Later, she wears an orange jacket with black, purple and white stripes on her hoodie, wrists and each side of her chest, and two large black lines in the arms. Under the jacket she wears a white sleeveless undershirt with black and gold shoulder straps, along with a brown belt, a pair of black shorts with chains and purple shoes, she wears Elekleid bracelet on her arm. When using the Gungnir Symphogear, she wore armor similar to her counterpart's but without the ability to manifest an Armed Gear initially, forcing her to rely on raw punching power enhanced by pistons. When she switches to Elekleid, she wears a purple-colored powered suit armor system with sleek, high-mobility design elements optimized for lightning-fast combat and dimensional travel, with electrical energy visibly coursing through the suit's systems during activation and combat.

Unlike her original counterpart, Hibiki is an aloof and short-tempered person. Miku and her family moved away following the Zwei Wing concert, leaving her with no friends or family for emotional support, which made Hibiki into a lone wolf who believes she has no one but herself. She still willingly fights against the Noise and aids her elders in everyday affairs, showing she's not completely heartless. She can be rather reckless, to the point of seemingly having a death wish, fighting much stronger opponents that she stands no chance against on her own and even overusing Gungnir despite knowing its fusion was slowly killing her. When interacting with others who try to communicate with her directly, Hibiki has a pushy and brusque side, actively pushing people away before they can abandon her first. She developed a belief that her presence inconveniences others and that no one would truly help her when she needs it most. She accepts that her fists are only good for smashing things apart rather than connecting hands together. It wasn't until the original Miku arrived in her world and persistently interacted with her that Hibiki started taking a turn for the better and realized she wasn't as alone as she thought, allowing her to open up more and even maintain consciousness while in a Berserk state.

Hibiki dislikes being offered help or pity, as these remind her of false promises from her past. She particularly hates when people claim they'll support her only to disappear when she needs them. Despite her harsh exterior, she likes fighting the Noise as it gives her purpose and a tangible enemy to strike at. She finds solace in helping people in practical ways that don't require emotional vulnerability. She continues to struggle with trusting others even after forming connections with allies who support her, though she gradually learns to accept help through persistent kindness from those around her.

Hibiki experienced a similar past to her main world counterpart until her world's Miku moved away before the Zwei Wing concert which embedded Gungnir into her body. Without anyone but her family to turn to for emotional support, Hibiki became withdrawn. Like her prime counterpart, she survived the Noise attack at the Zwei Wing concert when Kanade Amou sacrificed herself, but the absence of Miku as her emotional anchor altered her psychological development. She enrolled in Lydian Academy and activated her Symphogear to fight the Noise, but unlike the prime Hibiki who joined Section Two, this version repeatedly ignored their attempts to offer support. She often skips school to wander aimlessly in alleyways, earning her a reputation as a delinquent. Being unable to use her Armed Gear initially, her usage of Gungnir relied on raw punching power. Her original Gungnir was destroyed by Miku Kohinata using Shénshòujìng, which purged her fusion with the relic. She later received a new Gungnir created by Ryoko Sakurai. Eventually, Hibiki discarded her Gungnir and began to use Elekleid instead, and upon using her new equipment her fighting style changed to using swords as her main weapon. Aside from changing her fighting style, Hibiki became capable of opening portals and gaining access to travel the multiverse. She was able to combine the Elekleid and Symphogear by borrowing Hibiki's Gungnir while using her song, entering the Symphonic Drive state. This Symphonic Drive mode can resonate the wielder's song across parallel worlds, invite their inhabitants to sing together, and absorb a colossal amount of Phonic Gain from them in return. She became motivated by her desire to kill Susanoo for revenge, but later resolved to help as many people in many parallel worlds as she could to make amends for her actions, choosing to atone by traveling dimensions to help those in need. Her relationship with the prime Miku Kohinata became significant, as Miku's persistent kindness despite Hibiki's hostility slowly broke through her emotional walls. Her world's Tsubasa Kazanari witnessed her fighting Noise multiple times but never managed to establish communication due to Hibiki's deliberate avoidance. She lives a solitary existence in modest accommodations, surviving on whatever resources she can gather while maintaining her independence from official support systems.
