Yenalba for Subaki
Voice Actor: John Rubinstein (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8KjGj9eV_bs)
Subaki is one of Sakura's personal retainers, Subaki seeks perfection in all that he does in order to uphold the legacy of his family.
Subaki was born into a family belonging to the upper echelons of Hoshido, one that is renowned for having served the royal family for generations. Following the footsteps of his ancestors, Subaki is thus instated as one of Princess Sakura's personal retainers.
Subaki is a self-professed perfectionist, a fact that primarily stems from the legacy of his family's traditions, ones that have conditioned him to strive towards achieving perfection in all that he does. As a result of this, Subaki is known to be very demanding and even unforgiving towards himself as he works tirelessly to meet the harsh expectations that he sets for himself. This has in turn caused him to have the tendency to engage in self-reproach whenever he commits "offences" that he feels make him appear weak and imperfect in the eyes of others. During such occurrences, Subaki is known to lapse into a state of flustered distress as he attempts to rectify his shortcomings.
In spite of the excessive nature of his hardworking spirit, Subaki never draws attention to himself, choosing instead to hide his efforts from the notice of others. As a result of the attitude and behavior that he adopts towards others, Subaki can come across as being more obnoxious and arrogant than he actually is.
He has the cleanest hands in the army.
"I've always been able to avoid failure in every task. This is an obvious sign that my focus is beginning to slip! Lord Corrin. May we postpone our sparring session? I need to redouble my efforts. Farewell!"
"It's true. Mere moments ago, I heard one of the troops speaking about you. They admired your graceful fighting style and close relationship with your pegasus. I'm sure none of this comes as much of a surprise to you. I think you're remarkable too."
"Hahaha, it's OK. I'm extremely grateful that you did. Those values were a source of pride. I didn't think I'd forget them so easily. And yet...when I'm with you...I want to show you my perfect side... and my not-so-perfect side."
