Hinako's design was initially based on the protagonist of the manga Jarinko Chie, who used sumo moves. The supervising designer, however, succumbed to insistent requests to use "a debutante" and Hinako gradually transformed into a wellborn young maiden. She was also originally going to fight barefoot, which was also dropped. The only thing that remained from her original concept was the athletic tape on her fingers.
