Wakiya Murasaki
Wakiya is Hoji's best friend whom he addresses as Bocchan (坊っちゃん) in the Japanese version. Hoji's father works at the company that Wakiya's father owns, which is how the two met. They train together often and have been doing so for a long time, and due to this are very close friends. Wakiya also taught Hoji how to beyblade. In the English dub, Wakiya once told Hoji that he was like a brother to him.

In episode 45, Hoji was able to get Wakiya to calm down after the latter lost to Shu in the Individual Tournament, stating that he knew how hard he worked to win that battle, and that he was not someone who would just give up after a single setback. After these words, Wakiya felt visibly touched, and recovered his spirit - then telling Hoji that it was no use waiting around since they had to keep training and getting stronger.

Toko Aoi and Nika Aoi
Hoji is shown to treat Valt's younger siblings well, likely stemming from the fact that he himself has four younger siblings. At one point, he helped the twins rescue a kitten from a tree.
