Hiyori Tono

Hiyori Tono (遠野 日和 Tōno Hiyori) is one of the main characters in Free!-Dive to the Future, the title of the third season of the ''Free! ''franchise. He is Ikuya Kirishima's roommate at Shionezaki High School and later attends Shimogami University with Ikuya. He is Ikuya's top supporter, other than Ikuya's older brother, Natsuya.

Appearance
Hiyori is a tall, muscular young man with short brown hair and olive eyes. He wears corrective lenses.

Personality
Hiyori has an overprotective nature when it comes to Ikuya, but is generally upbeat and supportive when with him. However, when addressing Ikuya's former middle school swim team members, he is brash and outspoken, though his barbs are often said in a calm manner and with a disarming smile.

History
Hiyori met Ikuya in the United States while attending school and they became friends. He is now attending university with Ikuya and they are teammates in the Shimogami Swim Club. When Ikuya's older brother, Natsuya, began traveling as a professional swimmer, he left Hiyori responsible for looking after Ikuya, whose health is fragile. Hiyori takes this responsibility seriously and protects Ikuya in every way possible from both physical and emotional upset. He considers the Iwatobi Middle School Swim Club and Ikuya's middle school friends to be Ikuya's weakness and them to be "weaklings" who cannot compare to Ikuya's swimming genius.
