Habarihiko (羽張彦) is a secondary character in Harukanaru Toki no Naka de 4. Although he is dead by the time the main story takes place, his character affects the game's main setting.

Role in Game[]

Habarihiko, the eldest son of a high-status family in Chikushi, excelled in his studies and training, becoming a shining role model for the Nakatsu Kuni army. He befriended several other characters, including Hiiragi, Kasahaya, and Oshihito. Habarihiko was closer to Ichinohime, who fell in love with him. They joined her quest to defeat the Black Dragon, traveling to Takoyo no Kuni in secret. However, Habarihiko lost his life in the battle, and Ichinohime perished to seal the deal. Most Nakatsu Kuni believe the couple eloped and fled the country, with Habarihiko's younger brother bearing the burden of restoring their family name. When the White Dragon restores the timeline for the final time, Habarihiko and his beloved are working to establish peaceful relations with China.
