Hachi

From Wars Wiki

Hachi (Japanese: ハチ Hachi) is presumably the previous Commander-in-Chief of the Orange Star, and is currently retired, owning his own shop in the Battle Maps mode of the first three installments. Like Max, Rachel, Sasha, and Lin, his name does not change throughout the foreign language editions of the games.

Role[edit | edit source]

In Advance Wars[edit | edit source]

In Advance Wars, Hachi only features as the owner of the Battle Maps, which he mans himself. He gossips with the advisor, indirectly passing on hints to help playing the game.

In Advance Wars 2: Black Hole Rising[edit | edit source]

Advance Wars 2 is the first game Hachi is a playable CO as well. He makes a short appearance once the Hard Campaign is cleared, and from that point onward can be used in Versus Mode if purchased.

In Advance Wars: Dual Strike[edit | edit source]

In Advance Wars: Dual Strike, Hachi can be found in the Battle Maps section. He does not make an appearance in the Campaign mode, but is unlocked by clearing said mode with a S rank.

Personality[edit | edit source]

Hachi is a sociable old man, cheerful and full of energy. He is confident of himself and his abilities and stays calm no matter the circumstances.

Relationships[edit | edit source]

Hachi was once the pupil of Sensei, alongside Kanbei. Why he left Yellow Comet for Orange Star is not known, but he holds no grudge against either of the pair.

Skills[edit | edit source]

All of Hachi's units can be bought at a lower price because of connections. The reduction of his prices consequently reduces the power charge in Advance Wars 2 when his units are involved in battle.
