Personality

Past
While in the CCG Academy, Hirako's grades were seen as unremarkable. It wasn't until his partnership with Kishou Arima that he started garnering attention. His involvement in the extermination of the Clown gang and the 24th Ward investigations had established him as a reliable Investigator and earned him a number of achievements. His collaboration with Arima continued for 6 more years before being promoted to First Class.

Aogiri Arc
Hirako participated in the operation against Aogiri Tree in the 11th ward as a member of the 11th Ward Special Countermeasures Unit.

Anteiku Raid
Hirako was seen fighting Irimi alongside other investigators.

Power and Abilities
As a former apprentice under CCG's most famous investigator Kishou Arima, Hirako has shown exceptional skills as both an investigator and as a combatant. During the Anteiku Raid, Irimi had noted that out of all the investigators that were fighting her, Hirako was the strongest out of them all. He is skilled to the point of being able to suppress a S-class Ukaku type ghoul. While being strong, it has been noted that there's nothing special about his patterns despite his high battle power.
