Hinako (anime character)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hinako is a fictional character appearing in the three OVA animes:

  1. April 2009: Issho ni Training: Training with Hinako
  2. February 2010: Issho ni Sleeping: Sleeping with Hinako
  3. December 2010: Issho ni Training 026: Bathtime with Hinako & Hiyoko.

In Japanese, the character is voiced by Mai Kadowaki.[1] In the first OVA, Training with Hinako, Hinako is transformed into an anime figure through a television and then talks to the viewer. After that, she begins to exercise to lose some weight, providing the viewer with fan service in the process.[2] The video is in an interactive format, allowing the viewer to rearrange the scenes in the video.[3] The intention behind the production of the first DVD was to make an animation that could be participated in.[4] The second OVA, Issho ni Sleeping: Sleeping with Hinako, shows Hinako going to bed and sleeping, while again addressing the viewer directly at the beginning. This second OVA has been panned for sometimes distracting from its main premise of showing the character sleep.[5] Hinako's effect on the viewer has been described as legitimizing their existence in the fictional setting by recognizing the existence of the viewer and thereby letting them identify with the character.[6] An anime figure of the character was released by Good Smile Company in 2010.[7]
