Description
Hiyori Hayama, a second-year high school student originally from Hokkaido, now resides in Kanagawa. She debuted as a solo singer-songwriter in middle school but achieved limited commercial success, selling fewer than 10 copies. Her talent agency terminated her contract due to this lack of breakthrough, prompting her to seek other ways to sustain her music career.
She has brown hair styled in a bob cut and blue eyes. Her typical attire is a black school uniform, thigh-high black socks, and black shoes. To support herself financially while pursuing music, she works part-time in delivery services, which contributes to her baseline athleticism.
Her path changes when she discovers Extreme Hearts, a competitive league blending hyper-sports—athletic events using performance-enhancing gear—with entertainment. Despite initial inexperience, her natural speed and determination lead her to participate. She forms the idol group RISE, recruiting members: Saki Kodaka, her first and most dedicated fan; Sumika Maehara, Saki’s childhood friend; Yukino Tachibana, a kendōka; and Lise Kohinata, a martial artist.
Competing in Extreme Hearts, Hiyori serves as RISE's leader and primary guitarist. Her role evolves from struggling solo artist to a unifying team force, using the hyper-sports platform to reignite her musical aspirations. The group competes in sports like soccer, basketball, and volleyball, with Hiyori’s adaptability and perseverance highlighted during critical matches. She sustains a torn tendon in one tournament but continues to contribute strategically despite the injury.
Her relationships are central to her development. Saki Kodaka, initially a fan, becomes a close friend and teammate, instrumental in convincing Hiyori to join Extreme Hearts. Bonds formed within RISE and with rival groups like May-Bee and LINK@Doll underscore themes of mutual support and growth. By winning the Kanagawa tournament, RISE achieves victory, leading to wider recognition of Hiyori’s music and live performances of her original songs, "Sunrise" and "Happy Shiny Story," for larger audiences.
Her background as a delivery worker indirectly aids her athletic performance. Her journey reflects a transition from obscurity to emerging prominence, driven by collaboration and resilience. The team’s success in regional tournaments sets the stage for their entry into higher-level competitions, marking Hiyori’s evolution from a failed solo artist to an idol-sport hybrid performer.
