Takehisa Hinawa

Takehisa Hinawa is a Second Generation Company Commander at the 8th Special Fire Brigade.

Appearance
Takehisa is a young man with a short crop of light hair and glasses. He is seen wearing the traditional brigade's bunker gear, which consists of a black tank top, buckled at the waist with a belt, which presses a middle part that's strapped to his shoulders, and dark pants. Those are later topped by a protective jacket and trousers.

Personality
Takehisa has shown to be a calm individual, not bothered by Akitaru's antics, instead telling him to focus on the task at hand. He is also deductive, as he determined that Shinra joined the brigade in order to make-up for mistakes he made in the past.

Plot
Takehisa, with the rest of the 8th Special Fire Brigade, arrives at the train station in order to save it from a rampaging Flame Being. The young man uses a Special Fire Extinguishing Bullet in an attempt to extinguish the threat, which is later taken down by his team-mate, Akitaru Ōbi. When a light pad starts falling straight at Iris, Takehisa readies himself to shoot it down, but Shinra manages to save the girl first, after which, Takehisa asks who the boy was. Later, when Shinra arrives at the 8th Special Fire Fighting Church, Takehisa greets the boy and formally introduces him to Akitaru. When the Battalion Commander asks the boy why he joined the brigade, Takehisa questions Shinra's ambition. Later, in the meeting room, he is present when Akitaru makes a speech regarding known information of the Human Body Ignition Phenomenon. At night-time, when the sound of a siren notifies a threat, Takehisa gets into the brigade's Special Armored Fire Engine and moves out.

Powers and Abilities
Takehisa is a Second Generation ignition user, who has adapted to the virus and was granted the ability to manipulate and control flames, but cannot create such flames himself. In battle, he was seen using a Special Fire Extinguishing Bullet.
