Hitomi

Hitomi is a young girl of average height with short white hair, which includes bangs covering her forehead, brown eyes, and possesses an athletically toned body. She normally wears her high school uniform, which is a white unbuttoned collar shirt with a red bow, a brown jacket, a blue skirt, white socks that goes up to her legs and sandals. As for her fighting attire, Hitomi prefers to wear a simple white crop top and exposed white panties while walking barefoot. After the timeskip, Hitomi starts wearing a different crop top with a jacket over and shorts.

As a child, Hitomi had a feral appearance due to her Origin Beast form and only wore a plain dress. After losing her Origin Beast form and being adapted into human society, Hitomi started to wear normal clean clothes that fit her.

Hitomi has an extremely fierce personality that makes her out to be rather unfriendly and intimidating around others. She will pick a fight against anyone with very little provocation if they annoy her, therianthrope or not. She has no shame or resistance in her state of dress when fighting but is conscious about acting more feminine despite her tomboyish attitude. Hitomi isn't exactly knowledgeable about most perverts unless they make a move. For example, after Yuuya accidentally grabbed her breast, Hitomi blushed and called him a pervert, followed by a punch to the face. However, when she was misguided by Eruza into dressing as a maid while keeping some of her therianthrope traits visible, she was oblivious to the fact that other boys were completely ogling her until much later on. She also has a fondness for sweets that makes her give off a cute, normal girl expression on her face. The most common times when Hitomi will break out of her violent behavior is whenever she encounters Shidou Reiichi (or be given an order by him through communication) where she switches into a respectful, sweeter, and cuter person that is very obedient.

Because of her strong genes as a ratel, Hitomi never backs down from a fight no matter how dire her situation is. This is also mainly due to the fact that she has never experienced fear since the moment she was born. She is also naturally very confident in her abilities that makes her out to be extremely arrogant. Despite the odds of being 100:0 in her match against the champion Brute Leo, Hitomi confidently told the Brute that she was guaranteed to win and arrogantly mocked him. Her victory even led her to forgetting his name after they met a second time. She also confidently believes that she is the strongest Brute in the world, which meant for her that she had no need for allies or allegiances with a zaibatsu. In the midst of her battles, Hitomi becomes a fearsome, hot-blooded fighter with an aggressive disposition. When it comes to Killing Bites, Hitomi believes in her own philosophy that only the ones who have surpassed their fighting instincts, which she refers to as "fangs", will be the deciding victor and that speed, power, sex, animal type, etc. are completely irrelevant. Though she typically forgets her opponents once she has fought them, Hitomi can remember their names well if they had proved to be a challenge for her in battle, such as Brute Gecko.

Overall Abilities: Hitomi is among one of the most powerful therianthropes to exist. Though she is usually faced with dangerous opponents who are out of her league, Hitomi's true strength as a fierce and formidable combatant actually shines on the battlefield when she is on the receiving end, as with the case for ratels. During her time as a rookie in Killing Bites, Hitomi was able to beat Brute Leo, an undefeated Brute whose odds of winning against her were said to be 100:0, with a single blow in her first Killing Bites match. This achievement led her to earning the alias "Leo Killer" amongst the Brutes. Against his rival, Brute Tiger, Hitomi earned his acknowledgement for lasting long in a fight against him and was shown the same respect the Brute would give to Brute Leo by choosing to fight her seriously, something he has never done for any of his opponents before her. She was also capable of taking down Brutes who were professional fighters, such as Brute Bear who is known as the "Strongest Sumo Wrestler in Makushita", although she had already gotten a sense of his fighting style from their first encounter. Although she was badly injured, including the loss of her right arm, and overpowered even after awakening her Origin Beast form, Hitomi managed to bring down Brute Pangolin, Youko's ace in the Killing Bites Destroyale who was strong enough to defeat the likes of Brute Tiger effortlessly, and found him to be the easiest opponent she has ever faced, prompting her to toy with him during their battle.

Two years after the events of the Killing Bites Destroyale, Hitomi is looked at as a legendary prodigy and an inspiration to the next generation of Brutes. During the Killing Bites Deathival, Hitomi effortlessly took down a number of competing Brutes in her search for Yuuya and quickly defeated Gigant Megatherium single-handedly.

Ability Intuition: Hitomi possesses a special intuition for understanding how her opponent's attacks work by taking them head on. She is very perceptive, as she only needs to have her opponent execute an attack once in order to figure out the mechanics behind it. In rare instances, she may need to be assaulted two times if the attack is too fast to process or if she comes across an opponent who attacks differently than her previous foes.

Brute Ratel (獣闘士ブルート ｢蜜獾ラーテル｣, Burūto Rāteru?): Having been born with this ability, Hitomi is able to transform her body to gain the characteristics and abilities of the ratel. When transformed, Hitomi gains black fur with a white tint covering the sides of her body up to under her armpits to her shoulders down to the top of her biceps. Her arms are fully covered in fur, as well as her legs up to her upper mid-thighs. A short tail also sprouts from Hitomi's tailbone and a pair of small ears adorns the top of her head. Her fingers and toenails are replaced with short yet sharp claws. In addition, she also acquires fangs that are shown to reach her teeth.

After meeting Eruza, Hitomi learned how to perform a partial transformation, such as only releasing her ratel ears, tail, or claws.

She’s a human, her height is 163 cm (5'4"), and she classifies as an Therianthrope.
