Hatakeyama

Hatakeyama is a character who appeared briefly, to serve as a commentator for the volleyball competition of Ishiyama High's delinquents versus the Rokkisei. He was a former volleyball player, who became a cat... and anytime he breaks out of character to say something of value (or to comment on Aoi's good looks), it is always met by hesitancy on the part of fellow commentator, Taeko Furuna, and a plead to return to character, and stick with "meowing."
