HondaTristan's character design was overseen by [[Kazuki Takahashi]]. His usual outfit from the second series anime consists of a long brown coat with a raised collar, a white buttoned shirt underneath and black jeans. His brown hair is arranged such that a large portion spikes out from the front of his head.

In the first series anime, [[Miho Nosaka|Miho]] is also one of HondaTristan's friends. Honda Tristan plays few of the games that Yugi plays, and does not play Duel Monsters that often (In the Duel Monsters anime, he duels in the episode in the Noah Kaiba arc against the fourth member of the Big 5, [[Nesbitt]].

In the manga, Honda Tristan starts out as JonouchiJoey's street thug henchman. Eventually Tristan is no longer important to the story. In the manga, Honda Tristan at first has a crush on Miho Nosaka but she rejects him. Tristan develops a crush on JonouchiJoey's sister, [[Shizuka Kawai]] ([[Serenity Wheeler]]), and in the second series anime he fights with [[Ryuji Otogi]] ([[Duke Devlin]]) over her. In the manga, Honda Tristan also owns a female dog named Blankey and has a nephew named Johji. Honda Tristan is also a sharpshooter; Tristan says in the manga that when he was a kid, he could shoot a 100-yen piece with a BB gun from 50 feet. In the first series anime, Honda Tristan is the head of the clean-up committee at school and often overdramatically cites his duty while doing things, which causes him to annoy his friends.

In the manga, Honda Tristan gets a crush over Miho, who is a minor character in the manga; Miho rejects him. In the first anime series, HondaTristan's crush on Miho spans the series, but Miho is seen having a crush on Ryo Bakura. In the first anime series, Honda Tristan is Joey's verbal sparring partner instead of his crony, and he is head of the beautification committee at his school, which he dramatically brags about often. Honda Tristan recalls that their friendship started after they participated in a relay race. In the Duel Monsters anime, Tristan and Tea are more or less cheerleaders for Yugi and Joey. His crush for Serenity was carried over to the Duel Monsters anime.

In all of the Japanese versions and in the English-language versions of the original Yu-Gi-Oh! manga by Kazuki Takahashi, Honda Tristan is known as Hiroto Honda.
