Personality
Hakkai is shown to be a timid but friendly guy. When it comes to his personality, he is nothing like his older brother, Taiju, who is disciplined and bloodlusted. Hakkai showed a lot of care and compassion to his sister and to his friends, he was even willing to take the blame for the murder of Taiju so that Yuzuha didn't have to suffer the consequences. Hakkai also gave up the comfort of being in Toman in order to help Takemichi escape from Black Dragon. He is very old-fashioned when it comes to his mannerisms and honor, feeling as if he owes Takemichi his life by calling him "Onjin" which translates to "A person who you owe your life to."

He is the second strongest in the Second Division and can take down the average delinquent with one punch. Though weaker than his older brother Taiju, he is a capable fighter. Hakkai has also shown to be strong enough to land a chei punch to his brother Taiju's face.
