Background
Kohji Haneda was a talented shogi player. His adoptive younger brother, Shukichi Haneda, deeply respected him and likely changed one of his name characters slightly to honor him. By the time of his death, he had won four shogi titles and many had high hopes that he would win all seven of the major ones. He had also fought against Chikara Katsumata.
Seventeen years ago, he went to the United States for a chess competition that also enjoyed. The night before, wealthy Amanda Hughes, one of his big fans, visited and played chess with him at the hotel room. She introduced Rachel Asaka, her bodyguard, to him. He said she was his ideal girlfriend and also pointed out that her right eye's disease is Amaurosis Fugax. She also has feelings for him. Worrying something happened, Amanda lied to Asaka that she forgot a horse chess piece in his room and asked her to go there immediately as a favor. At the meantime, he realized what happened, asked her to hide and acted like he didn't know anything when the organization visited his room to find an Asian-looking woman. He persuaded her to stay in his room for her safety, but she didn't want him to be killed for helping her. He knocked her out with a stun gun and hid her in his bookshelf. Before getting unconscious, she warned him that they would kill him, he handed her his good luck charm, a bishop shogi piece. When they came, Rum noticed the books there must have been touched, so he wanted to check. He told Rum to have seen a piece of news including him gave a speech for Renya Karasuma thirty years ago, to prevent him from checking there, and Rum let one of his man beat him. Realizing he would not reveal anything about Asaka, Rum decided to kill him. In his last breath, he cut the mirror given to him by his mother to leave his dying message: CARASUMA.
Kuroda wasn't able to save both Amanda and him. Rum tried to clear up the evidence, but they had to run because the police were on their way. Tsutomu Akai was a friend of his father, who asked him to investigate his son's death. Asaka thought of him as a foolish person, because he sacrificed himself to protect her. She keeps his good luck charm and still seeks revenge for both Amanda and him.
Personality
Kohji's motto was "I must carry my initial dream through to the end" (初志貫徹 shoshi kantetsu).[2] The same motto was written on a fan that Shukichi now owns.

Name origin
Maybe the name Kohji Haneda (羽田 浩司 Haneda Kōji) comes from Yoshiharu Habu (羽生 善治 Habu Yoshiharu) and Kōji Tanigawa (谷川 浩司 Tanigawa Kōji), real-life shogi players.[8]
Shukichi Haneda (羽田 秀𠮷 Haneda Shūkichi) may have changed his name slightly to honor the late Kohji Haneda. Kohji's given name is 浩司, and the first character's radicals are (氵ノ土口). 土 is earth's do. Shukichi's given name is spelled 秀𠮷, with the final "kichi" kanji also including the radical for earth's do. This 𠮷 for kichi is a very rare variant; 99% of the time kichi is written as 吉 with 士 (man/samurai's shi) instead.
Trivia
- In episode 129, which was not relevant to the readers at the time, furigana (Japanese reading aid) of his surname is Hada (ハダ ).
- Gosho Aoyama mentioned there was "red herring" in volume 18[9], the same volume the list of APTX 4869 victims appeared in.
- A (so far unconfirmed) source gives the names of his father and mother as Yasuharu and Ichiyo, respectively.
- His character design is very similar Gohan's in the manga and anime franchise Dragon Ball.
- In file 1052 the bishop that Kohji always kept it as a good luck charm was the last piece he moved the first time when he won against his teacher. It has a cut on its lower left. He gave it to Rumi.
