Biwa Hayahide

"I’ll need your support in order to make my dream come true …is that okay?"

- Biwa Hayahide

Profile
A cool, intelligent, and talented horse girl with beautiful silver hair. She analyzes the best way to achieve victory in a race by using calculation and logic. She’s the polar opposite of her younger sister, the uncouth and brusque Narita Brian. Though at first glance she seems flawless and perfect, if anyone says “You’ve got too much hair!” she’ll get worked up into a cute, defensive side, saying “It only seems that way because of the color!”
