Description
Hana Morenos, who goes by the nickname Hatchin, is one of the two protagonists of her story. Her real first name is Hana, a name she dislikes, which is how she receives her more familiar nickname from her companion, Michiko. At the start of the narrative, she is nine years old, later turning ten, and an epilogue shows her as a teenager of seventeen. Physically, she is a petite girl with puffy blonde hair, dark gray eyes, and very pale skin, often dressing in a tomboyish manner that leads others to mistake her for a boy.
Hatchin's background is defined by hardship and neglect. Her biological father is Hiroshi Morenos, and her mother passed away when she was still an infant. Following her mother's death, she was taken in by the Belenbauza-Yamada family, who acted as her foster parents primarily to collect child support money. Her life with this family was one of constant abuse, both physical and emotional, as she was treated as a servant and scapegoat while the family's biological children were spoiled. Despite this miserable existence, she endured it with little hope of escape, having once run away only to realize she had nowhere else to go.
Her personality is a blend of traits forged by her difficult childhood. She is often described as stubborn, fussy, pessimistic, and far too mature for her age. Where her partner Michiko is impulsive and idealistic, Hatchin serves as the grounded voice of reason, frequently pointing out the flaws in reckless plans and reacting with frustration to Michiko's destructive and criminal behavior. She does not easily believe in dreams or people, having learned from a young age not to rely on fantasies of rescue. However, underneath this hardened exterior lies a core of deep resilience and a longing to be wanted. The same girl who accepted her bleak reality also dared to dream that someone would come for her, a wish that is eventually fulfilled.
Her primary motivation shifts over the course of the journey. Initially, her desire is simply to escape her abusive foster home, which she does when Michiko crashes into her life. She is then swept along on a quest to find her biological father, Hiroshi. While she is initially curious about him, she does not share Michiko's romanticized view and remains skeptical. As the story progresses, her motivation evolves from finding a missing parent to forming a genuine bond with Michiko, who becomes an unconventional but devoted maternal figure.
Her role in the story is that of the reluctant sidekick who becomes an equal partner. She is the anchor that keeps the impulsive Michiko tethered to reality. Her presence gives the search for Hiroshi its emotional core, as she is the living proof of his past and the key to finding him. Throughout the adventure, she is not merely a passenger; she often takes initiative, solves problems with level-headed thinking, and even acts as a protector for Michiko, caring for her when she is sick or in danger.
Key relationships define her journey. Her relationship with Michiko Malandro is the most significant, beginning with mutual distrust and frustration but slowly developing into a profound mother-daughter bond. Her connection to her biological father, Hiroshi Morenos, is more complicated and ultimately disappointing. Unlike Michiko, Hatchin is able to see Hiroshi for the selfish and逃避ing person he is, and upon finally meeting him, she rejects him, stating she has no need for someone like him in her life. She also forms a brief but impactful friendship with a circus girl named Rita Ozzetti, which allows her to experience a more carefree childhood and gain new confidence.
Throughout the story, Hatchin undergoes significant development. She transforms from a submissive, abused child who quietly endures her fate into a tougher, braver, and more outspoken individual who is not afraid to stand up for herself and others. She learns to trust and be trusted, moving from a state of cynical survival to one where she can form deep emotional attachments. By the epilogue, set seven years later, she has become a happy single mother working as a cook, having accepted her own identity and ultimately taking the initiative to reunite with Michiko, showing how she has come to fully embrace the family she chose for herself.
As for notable abilities, she possesses no superhuman powers. Her strengths are her sharp intuition, emotional resilience, and a mature, level-headed nature that allows her to assess situations clearly where others cannot. She is also capable of handling a gun and displays surprising accuracy when throwing rocks, skills learned from living in a dangerous and unpredictable world.
