Hayaki Kaneyuki

Hayaki Kaneyuki appeared in Historic Pause in chapter 3, when he possessed Otome Gensai. The circumstances of this event are still unclear.

Bio
Hayaki Kaneyuki, Ultimate Hand Model, earned his talent by improving business with his wonderful hands. He obviously isn’t very fond of his talent, or even interested in hand modeling at all, but fate is strange! He seems to act unnecessarily nervous, yet makes a good friend nonetheless.

Appearance in Historic Pause
Hayaki possessed Otome during chapter three. This occurred in the something or nothing, a secret room accessible from the ticket booth. This room contained work tables covered in materials and tools, and a large tank that could not be opened unless the correct person scanned their monopad in. It was not opened during the groups' excursion there.

Before he possessed her, Otome became dizzy and feverish and coughed up sunflower petals, the flower chosen to represent her. This may be a reference to hanahaki disease, which originates from the manga Hanahaki Otome (The girl who spits flowers). However, this is not confirmed, and the circumstances of this event are unlikely related to unrequited love.

While in the museum, Hayaki ran around and caused general mayhem, asking for Ayumu, as in Ayumu Miraiko of Skybound. He seemed to have a general dislike for most of the cast, and while generally lost did not seem to be unaware of his destination. There is no Hayaki Kaneyuki in the world of Historic Pause, so the students did not know who he was or where he came from.

Hayaki stayed for several days before seemingly choosing to leave. Otome returned, and had no memory of the event.
