Kyuma Hoshida
Kyuma Hoshida (星田球馬 Hoshida Kyūma) is Kyuta Hoshida’s father and a famous baseball player that appears in episode 43 of Rockman.EXE where he was recently traded to the Nihon Senators from the Nagoya Dryans. His nickname is “Mister Triple Crown” and his player number for the Nihon Senators is 16. His trading forced Kyuta and his family to move to Densan City and away from Kyuta’s friends, leaving Kyuta depressed. When Kyuta’s mother reveals why Kyuta was acting so sad to Netto Hikari and his friends, Kyuma approaches them, having not realized how Kyuta felt. Netto, his friends, and Kyuta’s parents arrange for Kyuta’s old teammates to video chat with Kyuta at a baseball stadium, where he and his old team take on Netto and his friends in a baseball game played by their Navis while Kyuma commentates on it with Kero Midorikawa.
Despite presumably not moving from Densan City, he nor his family are seen again for the rest of the series.

Trivia[]
- His name is probably derived from "Hyuma Hoshi" (星飛雄馬, Hoshi Hyūma), protagonist of Star of the Giants.
- The episode in which he appeared has several parody scenes of the Star of the Giants, and his role is similar to Hyuma's father, Ittetsu Hoshi.
