Ultimate Street Racer""Dude, chill out. Just listen to the song, we'll be home in a minute.""

- — Hime, to her friends while being pursued by police

Kaname Hisaya is a resident (?) of the Valentine Arch and a participant of The Saints' Killing Game featured in Bridge Between Us. Her talent is the Ultimate Street Racer.

Early Life
Kaname grew up playing racing video games for as long as they could remember. She didn’t care much for academics growing up. The only thing they focused on at school everyday was to go home and play more racing games.

Kaname fell in love with the idea of street racing. She would always play their games on the hardest difficulty, excited by the challenges that came with it. she longed for the idea of becoming a racer in the real world as she was in her video games.

Kaname’s father was all too familiar with his child’s obsession with cars, and he began to teach her how to drive by the age of fifteen. Kaname was eager, practicing with her dad everyday; or at least, as many days as she could without her dad being tired from work.

One day, while she was in school, she heard two boys talking about sneaking out at night to go to a street race. She had never seen a street race in person, and getting a glimpse into the world she thought only existed in games excited her greatly. She quietly listened in on the details of where it was being held, then later that night watched the race. She watched as different races were held and the prize money was handed out, and immediately knew she wanted to be like those same drivers. She snuck out more times after that, attending every race and getting to know all the racers and the style they drove on the streets.

By the age of sixteen, Kaname’s dad bought her her first car. The car was a model of a vehicle from the old world, brought back to due a sudden rise in popularity of 20th century Japanese tuners. It ran fine, but as a stock car it wasn’t suited to the life Kaname was aspiring to achieve.

Despite this, Kaname used the knowledge that she learned from her racing games (as well as teaching herself), and began to plan out how to modify her car to be race-ready. She eventually got a part-time job at the front desk of an office building, and any money she made from it she immediately put into her car. She was preparing to compete in the street races she snuck out to watch.

Kaname began to transition her life in the game world into the real one, spending less time in her room and dive caves and more in the garage. She spent every day modifying her car, stripping a lot of the stock components for aftermarket ones. After about half a year, she was satisfied with her progress on her car, and later that night, came to the race as a competitor for the first time.

Her first race was a circuit around the district it was held in, and her three opponents were experienced racers that she had watched many times before. The entry fee to the race was the same amount she made in two weeks. Their cars were much faster than hers, but she was hoping to win by exploiting the weaknesses she had taken note of beforehand.

She won that race very closely, after constantly fighting for first place with the racer she saw as her biggest threat. No one knew who she was, but she had beaten a racer who hadn’t lost in a very long time. When asked for her name, she replied “Hime”, which was the username she used in her racing video games.

Prior to Bridge Between Us
Kaname began to build her reputation as “Hime” as time went on, and beat many of her opponents using her analyses of their driving styles and maneuvers she picked up from playing racing games. She kept the identity “Hime” similar to that of a superhero’s. At daytime, she was a student and a part-time office worker. At nighttime, she was a brilliant street racer. Opponents from all over the city heard of the menacing “Hime” who was winning every race she entered while rising up out of nowhere. She eventually made so much money from racing that she quit her part-time job and raced full-time.

To this day, she has never lost a race.
