Overview

Takao Hiyama (火山 高夫, Hiyama Takao) is the Third diary owner. Ostensibly the homeroom teacher of Yukiteru Amano and Yuno Gasai, Hiyama moonlights as a serial killer, hunting down defenseless women and killing them with a large knife or machete. He owns the "Murder Diary".

Appareance And Personality

Hiyama is a man of about thirty, with long red hair, tied in a little ponytail, and green eyes.

Little of Hiyama's personality is revealed during his short time in the story, but as a teacher he enjoys dropping surprise english tests on his students. He seems to be quite strict, although sometimes is friendly with his students, as was shown in the scene where he allows Yuno to make her clay model of Muru Muru, though likely only because she claimed it was a brain exercise.

In fact, he was a very manipulative and sadistic man; he told his students to be careful of a serial killer when Hiyama was that same killer. Hiyama is also shown to be very paranoid, as he destroyed his Future Diary twice when Muru Muru first introduced it to him. Despite being told otherwise, he still believed that she was recording his crime in the diary believing it to instead be evidence of his criminal past. Because of his paranoied nature, Muru Muru predicted he would be the first Diary holder to be killed; this was later proven right

Hiyama's Future Diary is the "Murder Diary", which predicts the future of his victims. It tells Hiyama how and where he will kill his next victim, and how best to corner and kill them. Due to the nature of the Survival game, the other diary owners are treated as victims, allowing Hiyama to easily track them down. However, his diary does not provide any information beyond that, leaving him unable to predict the movements of other people or how his victim may try to defend themselves against him..

As the serial killer he is, Hiyama wears a hat, gas mask with goggles and a bulletproof and apparently explosive proof jacket. This makes him impervious to almost anything that would try to hit him. His trademark weapon is a large machete-like knife.

Despite his arms and his concealed identity, he does have many weaknesses, two of which being his paranoid demeanour and the fact he merely corners his victims and cuts them down with his knife. With such a simple fighting method, Hiyama is not really as powerful as many of the other diary users, especially since his diary doesn't show him how to defend against his potential victims' retaliation. This has been exploited several times across the series.
