【はやおプロフィール】
Street Fighter Ⅲ 3rd Strikeにおける西のヒューゴー神と呼ばれるプレイヤー。3rdでは弱キャラとされているヒューゴーながら、強豪プレイヤーをも投げ倒すプレイは世界中の人々を魅了してやまない。「ヒューゴー」は、ギガスブリーカー（通称：ギガス）というレバー2回転コマンドの超必殺の投げ技を持っており、それを相手の前ダッシュに合わせるなど、常人では理解不能なタイミングで決めるプレイスタイルが特徴。そんな魅せるプレイヤーである”はやお”には海外のファンも多く、尊敬の意を込めて「Hayao is Sick!!」と称されることも多い。
ちなみに、はやおが座る筐体には“押すだけでギガスが出る「ギガスボタン」が付いてるに違いない”と噂も流れている。

【Hayao’s Profile】
Hayao is known as the “Hugo God of the West” in Street Fighter III 3rd Strike, Hugo is considered a weak character in Street Fighter III, but his ability to throw down even the strongest fighters has captivated people around the world. Hugo has a super special throw called the Giga Breaker (a.k.a. Gigas), which he commands with two lever rotations, and his play style is characterized by timing his throws in a way that is incomprehensible to the average player, such as by matching them with his opponent’s forward dash. Hayao is such a charming player that he has many overseas fans, who often refer to him with the respectful phrase “Hayao is Sick! with respect.
There are rumors that the cabinet in which Hayao sits “must have a ‘Gigas Button’ that you can press to release Gigas.

I believe that I will not always have the same opportunities and health as I do now, and that “I may not be able to play the game all of a sudden. That is why I will continue to do my best so that I will not leave anything behind in my games and performance.
