Hokuto runs with Kousuke Shirai and Ataru Moroboshi in class 2-4 at Tomobiki High School. He and Kousuke claim to be Ataru's friends, but that friendship dissolves pretty fast whenever Lum's around—they'll happily throw him under the bus or gang up on him if it means getting her attention instead.
Interestingly, he's nowhere to be found in the original anime series. The creators swapped him out for a different character with a similar name who's basically a straight-up Kenshiro parody from Hokuto no Ken.
