Nozomu Hatori

Nozomu Hatori (羽鳥 希, Hatori Nozomu) is a powerful Esper and a former member of the terrorist organisation Claw as part of the Ultimate 5.

Appearance
Hatori has messy brown hair and wears thin-rimmed rectangular glasses.

He wears a light-colored jumper with a pigeon design, on top of a white dress shirt, black pants, and shoes. He was the shortest of the Ultimate 5.

Personality


Hatori is a smug figure who relishes his position of power within the Ultimate 5. He enjoys using his psychic powers and treats the machines he can control like oversized toys. However, he is incapable of battling himself and relies on his allies for that.

World Domination Arc
Hatori first appears behind Suzuki at a large Claw meeting. He uses his powers to hijack every TV channel in the city and broadcast Suzuki's message to them all. Later on, he is seen at the Culture Tower in Seasoning City, defending their hideout from news helicopters and any potential missiles that get too close to the tower.

When Sho later gets into the tower, Hatori encounters him with his drones and taunts him. However, Sho deals with him by quickly ducking behind him and getting him in a German suplex.

He is later seen when Suzuki and Mob begin their climactic battle, he and Minegishi arriving to help protect the Ultimate 5 and the others from the chaos.

He is seen to have been employed by a computer support and service company. He is stressed out from taking customer complaints and relieves stress on message boards.

???% Arc
He is seen piloting an aircraft containing Joseph and five ex-members of Claw, including Toichiro Suzuki, who are sent to Seasoning City to deal with Mob. He wishes his ex-boss good luck before Toichiro jumps out of the aircraft.

After Toichiro and Sho fled from ???, Joseph and Hatori are inside the cockpit, watching Toichiro through a screen. Joseph tells Hatori to "go get him", and so he sends out guide drones for Toichiro.

Powers & Abilities
While not especially suited for combat, Hatori was still one of the most powerful members of Claw, evident by his inclusion in the Ultimate 5. His psychic aura took on a golden color with diagonal line patterns within.
