Akiharu Hino

Akiharu Hino is the main protagonist from the Ladies Versus Butlers anime and light novels.

Akiharu decides to enter a boarding school, Hakureiryō Academy, because he no longer wants to burden his relatives. He decides to take the exam for that school and succeeds in entering the House Management Department, where the school trains servants for high society. He is often seen as a delinquent because of his red eyes and rough exterior (accented by a scar on his left eyebrow). However, he has a caring personality, but is dense in regards of girls and love matters. Often times because of everyone's less than friendly perceptions he is often accused of performing perverted acts on the girls of the academy. His childhood friend Tomomi is often behind the schemes leading to these misunderstandings. Still, Akiharu starts finding his feet at the school and his relationships with the girls also get better.

In the Heroes Coalition fics, Akiharu is known as the Doctor and is a Time Lord. He is also a teacher at the Vanguard Academy.

Appearance
Akiharu has red eyes, a scar upon his left eyebrow, a dirty brown messy hair, and a rough exterior. He wears a black tailcoated jacket over a white long-sleeve collared shirt with a black tie, black trousers and black leather shoes.

Personality
Even though Akiharu may look like a thug, he has a caring and righteous personality. He has displayed remarkable amounts of compassion throughout the series, as when he was willing to catch a cat for Mimina to draw, or when he was helping out Daichi when she had love problems by giving her a lecture about love. Also, he is quite dense in regards to love matters and girls. This is proven in the end of the series where he does not figure out how both Tomomi and Flameheart were fighting for his affection/for the tickets to go to the new waterpark with him, where he gives both tickets to them. This leads to him getting punched by both girls and insults from the remaining butler/lady characters. Hino seems to prefer Selnia Flameheart as he is not afraid of her as compared to how he is with Tomomi. Akiharu admits that while in elementary school he wanted to be Tomomi Saikyō's "bride" it is unclear if he still feels this way about his childhood friend.

In the Heroes Coalition fics, as the Doctor, Akiharu speaks in a thick British accent despite being Japanese. He displays traits such as disarming or mercurial surface, concealing a deep well of age, wisdom, melancholy, and darkness.
