* BigOlEyebrows

* Chiptune: Hyadain Quest is a chiptune {{Medley}} song of his hits.

* BigBrotherMentor: He happens to be a faithful music mentor figure for Natsuko Aso, Momoiro Clover Z, and Ebichu, in a friendly way as if they were [[TrueCompanions companions]]. There were an instance when a member jokingly punch him, "I want more singing parts!". He even wrote several songs based on their life and their gimmicks.

* DarkerAndEdgier: very noticeable in recent Hyadain songs, such as theme for Manga/KurokoNoBasuke, "Start It Right Away" and for Manga/{{Bakuman}}, "23:40" both feature downer lyrics and drastic arrangement changes from his usual style. A MoodWhiplash?

** Taken into extreme in Momoclo's ''Hai to Diamond'', heavy ballad, partly despair lyrics and misplaced vocals, contrast to [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LwMuHy8t_Vk his]] [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u7z9M0vFPbI songs]] [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jCwI7y0Oy5Q back]] [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oCRlKdMnPLI then]] (when they called it Hyadain-Era Momoclo) even the fans thinks "seriously is this a Hyadain's doing?".

* Title Theme Tune: Hyadain is an expert in this, he is responsible for respective idol's main theme songs that listener will unlikely forget, The lyrics tend to [[ExpositoryThemeTune describe what kind of idols they are]] and [[ListSong list the members]].

Hyadain is a Japanese composer, singer and arranger, well known for his work on game music, with often very liberal (and frequently hilarious) interpretations of characters in the games. He posts all his work on both [[http://www.nicovideo.jp/user/1374465 Nicovideo]] and [[http://www.youtube.com/user/hyadain2525?blend=1&ob=4 Youtube]].

His most famous works are probably the various songs he did for ''VideoGame/MegaMan2'' (6 out of 8 Robot Masters, so far), where each Robot Master sings a song basically professing his love to Mega Man (except for Bubbleman, who's just incredibly lonely, and Heatman...who just seems to be a giant man-slut). He also has a large number of songs that are arrangements of various ''DragonQuest'' songs (and as a bit of trivia, his nickname is derived from the Japanese spell name of "[[AnIcePerson Kacrack]]"). He switches between a good number of styles, though the majority of his songs are intended to be funny or cutesy, he can also do heart-wrenching ballads and darker-themed songs. He also sang a good number of covers of old anime songs. He does all the voices himself, using computer editing to make the female voices.

* GenreSavvy: He knows what fans wants when writing song for idol groups, He often leaves parts obviously intended for fans chant or known as wotagei, in example Denpagumi's "W.W.D", Momoclo's "Mouretsu", and Ebichu's ""Houkago Getabako Rock 'n' Roll MX".

* OneOfUs: Every single of his remixes features depth context and strong lyrics, often giving nods to another game or popular culture subjects. He is a dedicated retro gamer indeed.
