Trivia
This section may contain major spoilers!
Please refrain from reading if you are not yet familiar with all the latest media released.- The first character in her last name (志) means "purpose" or "will." The last character (筑) means "architecture."
- Her first name is written using a combination of the kanji 仁 (meaning "charity" or "benevolence") and 美 (meaning "beauty").
- She attends after-school classes in Piano, Japanese dance and Tea ceremony, feeling obliged to make time for them even when she might reasonably be expected to focus on her studies.
- In Episode 4, Hitomi was among the persons who got a witch's kiss and were driven into a suicidal trance. She spends her apparition talking about going to a better place and attempting to join the others, who then stage a collective suicide. Madoka manages to save Hitomi and the others by tossing their supplies away, but is swallowed into a the witch Elly's barrier and Sayaka, now a Magical Girl, saves her.
- Having noticed Sayaka's crush on Kamijou, Hitomi confronts Sayaka and tells her that she will tell her feelings to him if Sayaka doesn't do it first. This act, unbeknownst to her, contributes to Sayaka's despair. She is still apparently unaware of such a fact in Episode 9, since she tries to ask Madoka if something has happened but Madoka doesn't tell her anything.
- It was speculated that since it was a silent conversation, neither the audience nor Sayaka (who was lurking around) know what she was telling him. Therefore, it was believed that she was actually speaking on Sayaka's behalf, telling Kamijou about how Sayaka felt about him instead of about her own feelings. ref>Pointed out at TVTropes Wiki</ref> However, in the manga Hitomi and Kyousuke are seen holding each other's hands (with Sayaka standing behind a tree only a few feet away), making the above speculation untrue for manga canon.
