After experiencing a bad ending like that, I can see Hisao scratching his head, wondering why the girls at Yamaku are so psycho, and thinking that Kenji may be on to something.
Neither of them ever white knights Hisao. Try again.

Well, think about it:
The entire reason that Shizune/Misha even talk to Hisao is because they report that he looks "depressed" or "upset", something along those lines. He didn't exactly make a big effort to try and be as outgoing as Emi, and on all the routes, he acknowledges he was still wallowing in self-pity.
It DOES seem a bit white-knight-ish to me, but that's my opinion.
Though it's less evident later in the routes as Hisao begins to take his role.

Trying to help depressed people isn't white knighting...

I'm sure Hisao thought the same thing when he visited Hanako after she locked herself in her room on her birthday.
One is friendly concern. The other is being a stubborn, selfish, pushy pain in the ass despite people telling you to back off.
