Hajime Shishizaki

Hajime Shishizaki is character that has, so far, never made a physical appearance in the series. Until volume 09, he has only been mentioned in sidestories by various characters

What little is known about him is that he is the son of a rich family and that he attended Raira Academy with Shizuo, Shinra , and Izaya. He was popular at school and was a relatively good student aside from the occasional run in with Izaya and Shizuo. After he graduated, he apparently worked at Russia sushi for a short while before either quitting or getting fired. He was described as being an incredibley skilled fighter, having been able to take down a US soldier who was on vacation in Japan. He is described as having Shizuo's raw strength and endurance but also had Izaya's speed and agility. He would occasionally get roped into Izaya and Shizuo's fights during high school although it is unclear if it was accidental or intentional. The relationship Hajime had with the two of them is unclear although Shizuo seems to have a sort of respect for him due to the fact that he was the only one able to keep up with Izaya back in highschool. With Izaya, however, the mere mention of Hajime's name was enough to wipe his sly grin right off of his face which would imply that he had a bad experience with him in the past.

He has been oversees for an unknown period of time but has recently returned to Japan. Izaya seemed deeply disturbed at this news.
