Hitokawa Hasami

Hitokawa Hasami (人皮挟美) is a background character introduced in Toaru Kagaku no Accelerator. A Level 2 Pyrokinesist, she is dead by the start of the series.

Appearance
She appears as a young woman. She has waist length light brown hair and eyes of the same colour.

Personality
Upon her death she had low self-esteem, she even mocks herself for not being able to kill herself.

Background
She was a 1st year student at Ninoude High. For reasons unknown, three days prior to the beginning of the Toaru Kagaku no Accelerator manga, Hasami commits suicide by jumping off a bridge. Despite the presence of many witnesses to her suicide, her corpse is never found.

She however, later survives her suicide attempt while in the ambulance of the DA. After lamenting her failure to even kill herself, the DA finishes the task that she could not have done herself. They drown her with some liquid through her oxygen mask, mockingly consoling her that her body would be used for justice just after they say that she committed an evil, which was killing herself. She suffered and felt fear as she died. Someone also shoved a magic array drawn on a parchment, a magic charm, into her mouth afterwards. Her corpse was later inserted by the DA into a large prototype mecha that uses her power. When the mecha uses her power, her lowly Level 2 ability exponentially becomes more powerful, at least enough to be compared to a Level 4.

Toaru Kagaku no Accelerator
Her body is found by the Accelerator immediately after destroying the mecha that held her corpse, her pained expression as she fell from the machine reminding him of the Sisters. Anti-Skill is later summoned by the Heaven Canceller to the scene of Accelerator's battle. Anti-Skill later had the Heaven Canceller look over her corpse, and there he found the parchment inside her mouth. He later gives it to Accelerator, piquing the attention of Estelle Rosenthal who says that it is a low-level spiritual rank charm. As a necromancer, she later performs a ritual on her body as so she can "pass through the gates of heaven." The ritual allowed her to manifest Hasami's "residual memory" into a tangible form, which Accelerator touches in his curiosity, causing him to see Hasami's memories from childhood up to her death.

Estelle later successfully inputs a Huotou into her body, but the ritual is interrupted when two DA members masquerading as normal Anti-Skill appear, the same ones who had killed her included, back to destroy her corpse. When Accelerator confronts them, the Huotou activates and takes control of her body, seeing its master in danger (Estelle), it attacks and destroys the weapon of one of the DA as well as creating a crater on the floor with a single kick. It was willing to get the corpse shot in order to protect the "charm" on it that allows for the Huotou to continue its possession, that is until Accelerator steps in to deflect the bullets. When Accelerator dispatched the first DA member and Estelle pursued the other as he attempted to flee, it protected Estelle when the DA member caused the ceiling to collapse on top of them. Shifting the rubble, it then spotted another path and told Estelle to hold on. After receiving Estelle's cloak, it took her after their quarry, breaking through the wall and intercepting the DA member as he was escaping the hospital.

Abilities
Her esper ability is Level 2 Pyrokinesis (発火能力 (パイロキネシス) ), allowing her to create fire. To what extent could she create and manipulate fire is unknown, though it is likely that she is incapable of displaying advanced feats of Pyrokinesis as shown by Okahara Ryouta for example.

When her corpse was reanimated by Estelle's Huotou, seemingly removing her natural limiters, it was able to break a grown, trained man's arm with a single kick, destroying the ground around her with through the sheer force of the attack. It also mentioned that it would be able to catch up with a fast driving car within 180 seconds, sacrificing 70% of the muscle fibers in both of her legs in the process.
