OVERVIEW
Hara Kazuya is Kirisaki Daiichi's second-year power forward. At 188 cm, 75 kg, and with long purple hair over the eyes, he always has gum in his mouth - even during games. He talks dry, teases his own bench, and fouls where the referee is not looking.
He is the one who comments on Seto's forever-hanging strand of hair. His read on Seirin does not survive Kuroko's second-half return.
NAME ETYMOLOGY
Hara (原): The kanji 原 (Hara) means "field, plain."
Kirisaki Naming Pattern: Following a hidden theme where Kirisaki's core roster members are named after hospitals in Japan, 原病院 (Hara Hospital) appears in more than one prefecture.
Kazuya (一哉): The kanji 一 (Kazu) means "one" and 哉 (Ya) is an exclamatory suffix — "how, what."
