Kodaka Hasegawa

Kodaka Hasegawa is the main character of the light novel and anime series Haganai. He is a second year student at St. Chronica's Academy, where he has a bad reputation. Due to the blond hair he inherited from his English mother, he is often mistaken for a delinquent and so is unable to make any friends. One day, he indirectly gives Yozora Mikazuki the idea to form the Neighbour's Club and is pulled into it against his will.

He is voiced by Ryohei Kimura in the Japanese version of the anime and Jerry Jewel in the English version.

Appearance
Kodaka is half-British as evidenced by his dirty-blonde hair - his most distict feature - which he inherited from his late mother. Meanwhile, his face is that of his father's, masking his foreign lineage and being mistakenly identified as somewhat intimidating and unapproachable. Kodaka's eye color is dark-gray.

Due to his appearance, Kodaka would often create an angry or scary face, sometimes unintentionally, that would make the students around him scatter away whenever he wants to explain something or when he tries to act nice to another student. Kodaka is also well aware of this, and will even exploit this when needed.

Kodaka's most frequent outfit is his school uniform and only to him, prefers to roll up his pants. When not in school, Kodaka would dress more casually, usually a T-shirt and medium length pants. Throughout the series, Kodaka is seen constantly wearing a necklace around his neck. He is the tallest member of the club, standing at 172 cm.
