Itaru Hashida

Itaru Hashida (橋田至, Hashida Itaru) is an experienced hacker in both software and hardware technologies. He is also well-versed in things pertaining to otaku culture. Rintaro and Mayuri call him by the nickname "Daru". He and Rintaro have known each other since they were in high school. Itaru doesn't mind when he is called "Super Hacker" but he doesn't like it when they call him "Super Haker/Hacka" (a misspelling of the word hacker). He supposedly has an obsession with both 2D and 3D girls. Because of his speech, he is known to be a pervert.
