This is the character sheet for the racing anime series ''Anime/FutureGPXCyberFormula''.

Interestingly enough, ''Cyber Formula'' is one of the very few Sunrise works to seldom change the major cast as the series progresses while adding new characters into the mix (other than switching the main character role between Hayato Kazami and Bleed Kaga in the last OVA, ''Sin'').

As always with Character pages, '''MAJOR SPOILERS AHEAD'''! You have been warned.

The main character of the series (aside from ''SIN''). As the son of Hiroyuki Kazami, the designer and programmer of Asurada, Hayato is thrust into the world of Cyber Formula completely by accident when he is registered as the driver of Asurada during a delivery to the Fujioka track when the machine was attacked. Although he manages to bring the car to the Sugo team safely, his driving data is locked into Asuada's computer, which leaves him no choice but to be the main driver for the team. Shortly after obtaining the "Super License" in the All-Japan Grand Prix Hayato becomes the youngest CF racer ever, and at the end of the 10th Grand Prix, [[spoiler:becomes the youngest champion ever.]]

At the beginning of ''Zero'', he was nearly killed in an accident at the British GP when he first discovered the "Zero Realm". The fear was so powerful that he cannot pull the booster handle until the Norwegian GP when he overcomes the fear of the Zero Realm with a little help of encouragement from Asuka.

In the main series, Hayato has the most World Championships with 4 (John Cleeve and Pitalia Lope have won 2 each). He can go Zero and has mastered the techniques Inertial Drift and Lifting Turn, when used, makes him almost impossible to be defeated. In the series' ending, it was revealed [[spoiler:that he is married to Asuka.]] It is also revealed in the storyline of the [=PS2=] game, ''Road to the Infinity 3'' [[spoiler:that he won his 5th world championship.]]

* BrownEyes: Which comes in line with his polite and trusting nature.
* ChildhoodFriendRomance: With Asuka.
* DefeatMeansFriendship: He makes friends with racers after a few or more races with them.

Lampshaded at the final episode of ''SIN'' when he sees Kaga with his new haircut and saying that it's not the Kaga he knew.
** He also has this type of relationship with Ohtomo in the TV series.
* HotBlooded: Albeit a more toned down version of the trope. Being a {{Determinator}} also helps.
* ImprobableAge: Not only he made his racing debut at age 14, [[spoiler:he won the championship in that age as well in his debut.]] Subverted, as in the beginning, he had almost no driving skill.
* InvincibleHero: Only badly adjusted machines slow him down by ''SIN,'' yet he gives Kaga one hell of a trouble. Plays even straighter in the PS1 game [[spoiler: where Seiichiro only beats him at the last second, blowing up his machine in the process.]]
* MagneticHero: He earns the respect of other racers, throughout the series. He [[AllThereInTheManual even lists his specialty]] as "Making friends with anyone".
* MyHeroZero: He uses the Zero Zone, His first attempt resulted in [[spoiler:him being nearly killed, and retiring for a short time, but then he came back to overcome his fear of using the skill with help from Asuka.]] And in the last 2 [=OVA=]s, he drives the v-Asurada AKF-0.
* NaiveNewcomer: At the beginning of the TV series, since he has no experience in car racing.
* NiceGuy: Most of the time.
* NoOneCouldSurviveThat: His accident in the first episode of ''ZERO''. The TV series also has it. [[spoiler: After he got a HeroicBSOD, he pulled a NitroBoost and the GSX crashed into the trees, tearing the whole machine apart. The driver cockpit's still all right, and he wasn't physically hurt that much.]]
* OfficialCouple: Asuka and him.

* TheRival: To Shinjyo and later Randoll, Osamu and eventually Kaga.
* SensitiveGuyAndManlyMan: The sensitive guy to Shinjyo and Kaga's manly men. He and Ohtomo plays the sensitive guys to Shinjyo's manly man.
* ShonenHair: It gets slightly bigger in the last 2 [=OVAs=].
* ShutUpHannibal: To Henri in [=EP=] 7 of ''Zero''. After shoving him to the trailer door, he asks him what he's racing for.
* SuperMode: The Zero Realm.
* TechnicianVersusPerformer: The performer to Randoll and Shinjyo's technicians.
* TenMinuteRetirement: In the TV series, he runs away from his team after the disastrous first race in the American Grand Prix and in ''ZERO'' after the accident and when he is haunted by the Zero Realm.

Asuka wasn't too happy with this, though, and she broke off her engagement with him. She later made it up with Hayato after the misunderstanding and helped him to overcome his fear.]]
* ThinkNothingOfIt: In episode 25 of the TV series, he said that he just trusted in Asurada in a reception when talked about him saving Asuka, Osamu and everyone else in a plane when the plane couldn't lower the wheel.
* TookALevelInBadass: Once he learns more of his driving skills, he becomes a full-fledged racer.
* TookALevelInJerkass: In ''SAGA''. He regains his original personality towards the end of episode 4. To his credit, he is trying to shake off from his loss in the previous racing season and being chased by Phill and Al-Zard.
* VomitDiscretionShot: In episode 3 of ''Double One'', after he drove recklessly on the test track as he's put into Asuka's arms and then he fell down as he threw up.
* WhatTheHellHero: He finds himself at the receiving end of this a few times, like in EP 12 of the TV series.

->Blood Type: AB
->Height: 162 cm, 5'4"
->Weight: 50 kg, 110 lbs
->Teams: Theodolite T.T. (2017), Sugo Grand Prix/GIO (2018–2022), Missing Link (2023-)

Originally a rookie in the Theodolite T.T. team, Henri later joins Sugo Asurada in the following year, replacing Hayato while he was recuperating from his injuries. He keeps a sweet and cheerful personality in front of the racers, which is a merely a facade of his scheming and manipulative self. For some reason, he has a deep hatred for Hayato, but Hayato doesn't know why he hates him so much...

----
* ArchEnemy: Of Hayato in ''Zero'' (albeit one-sided), Leon in the last 2 [=OVA=]s.
* BitchInSheepsClothing: In ''Zero'', he may looked like a sweet and cheerful rookie, but he's actually a vengeful person who wanted to make Hayato's (and the other racers') lives miserable. He used Shinjyo, Heinel and Gudelhian to make ''them'' believe that Hayato was using reckless racing tactics to get ahead.
* CuteAndPsycho: He may look cute and innocent, but has a homicidal obsession with Hayato. It mellows out at the end of Zero.
* FrenchJerk: An extreme version in ''Zero'', although he isn't arrogant. He becomes less of a jerk in the final 2 [=OVAs=] although he still ''is'' somewhat a jerk.
* FreudianExcuse: Probably the reason he holds a big grudge against Hayato in most of ''Zero'': [[spoiler:He was pushed by his father to be the best in racing ever since he was little so he can be the youngest champion in the history of Cyber Formula, but when Hayato got that title first, his father started drinking and then abandoned him.]]
* ManipulativeBastard: In ''Zero''.
* ParentalAbandonment: His mother passed away when he was little, and his father [[spoiler:started to ignore him and hitting the bottle after Hayato takes the title of being the youngest champion ever before him. Thus begins his obsession with ruining Hayato's life for taking his dream away.]]
* SkunkStripe: He has silver hair with a red streak on the strand of his bangs.
* StageDad: His father pushes Henri to be the best in racing and then [[spoiler:ignored him after Hayato wins his first championship.]] It helps that he's a former racer.
* WellDoneSonGuy: He tries hard to impress his father. It doesn't work out ''at all''.
* WhiteHairBlackHeart: It gets toned down in the last 2 [=OVAs=].

At the end of ''ZERO'', [[spoiler:he is promoted to chief mechanic after Miki leaves for Aoi ZIP.]]

----
* ABNegative: Although it is not explained in-series, it is heavily implied that he has this, due to him having a special kind of blood type and played a plot point in one episode of the TV series. It is also this ''very'' kind of blood type that made him give up auto racing due to safety reasons.
