Hisashi Igou

Hisashi Igou (井豪永, Igō Hisashi) was a student at Fujimi High School and the boyfriend of Rei Miyamoto. He, along with Rei and Takashi Komuro, was one of the first to try and escape the rampage at the high school who is also credited by Rei and Takashi as being the first to name the undead "them".

About
Hisashi is a second-year student at Fujimi High School. He is the boyfriend of Rei Miyamoto and friends with Takashi Komuro, and he is classmates with both of them. He has a black belt in karate, so he chooses to fight "them" with no weapons, which ultimately leads to his death. He is the first one at the high school refer to the undead as "them", since he realized that "they" could no longer be considered human.

Appearance
Hisashi has gray hair and brown eyes. He is only ever seen wearing the standard Fujimi High School male student uniform.

Personality
Hisashi is usually very calm and collected and able to keep a clear mind in situations where others would panic. He truly cares for Rei Miyamoto and he is also very loyal to Takashi Komuro, which is shown when he believes his story of what happened at the gate without hesitation, while Rei remains skeptical. Even when Takashi hits Rei when they are in the classroom, rather than getting angry, Hisashi understands that Takashi is serious and goes with him.

History
Little is known about Hisashi's past, but it is revealed early on that he was in the same class as Takashi Komuro during the school year prior to that of the main story. As well, after Rei Miyamoto and Takashi escape the school roof by clearing away "them" with a nearby fire hose, it is made apparent that Hisashi had known Rei and Takashi for many years, when Rei mentions an event that had occurred in middle school during a fire alarm (thought the event in question was never directly stated). He was also present in a flashback of Takashi's when he relates his stay at the Takagi estate as being similar to "Mutiny on the Bounty". According to photos during the ending credits of the anime, Hisashi and Takashi sat together during lunch at Fujimi Academy. When he was dating Rei, they passed by a female reporter while she made the peace sign, looking confused. He and Takashi went to a pool when they were in middle school.

Plot
Hisashi is the boyfriend/classmate of Rei Miyamoto. Hisashi, Takashi Komuro and Rei were among the first to try and escape the chaos at the school. Upon hearing Takashi's report, he told Takashi and Rei to pick up some weapons (broomsticks) to fight "them". He chose to fight against "them" without weapons since he has a blackbelt in Karate. On their way out of class he was bitten by an infected teacher and subsequently turned into one of "them" afterwards. Aware of his fate he instructed Takashi to kill him before he became one of "them" by throwing him off the rooftop of the school building, but died before Takashi could do so, and rose back up as one of "them". Takashi then gathers himself together and takes down Hisashi permanently. The two leave his body on the roof top, in which a brief bitterness between Rei and Takashi occurred as a result from his death.

Killed By
Hisashi successfully protected Rei Miyamoto for Wakisaka, but Hisashi bitten on the arm by Wakisaka. He tries pull away for Wakisaka, but he again bitten her and later quickly saved her by Takashi Komuro. Hisashi is gonna slowly - sick of infection and slowly died. Hisashi is slowly reanimated and becoming one of them. Hisashi is forcefully smashed in the head using his baseball bat by Takashi.
 * Wakisaka (Caused, Alive)
 * Takashi Komuro (Zombified) 

Killed Victims

 * Two of "Them".

Trivia

 * Hisashi plays the part of the best friend of the main protagonist who is bitten, infected, and turns into a zombie. The protagonist is then forced to kill the zombified friend. This theme is present in nearly all zombie-related stories and media.
 * In Chapters 21 and 29, Saya Takagi and Saeko Busujima bring up something little about the plot and due to this both Takashi Komuro and Rei Miyamoto get shocked faces with a faint picture of Hisashi in the background thus supposing that neither Rei nor Takashi have fully gotten over his death.
