What's your opinion about this kind of defence?
I find it many passive, but maybe I'm wrong. Every time I play this kind of defence I lost the game. Maybe I'm not able to use it in the right way.
Thanks for your answers. Roberto.

The Hippo is a great defense for black. But...you have to be patient with the moves. Just wait until White attacks. I play it a lot.

There is a similar opening for White called:
The Pincer Attack
(Videos on YouTube and jrobichess.blogspot.com)
Very good for Blitz-Games!
