Ginga Densetsu Weed episode 1 and 2 English fan dub
sshell101 for Kyoshiro
Kyoshiro Is a dog about one year old who is leading a pack of young dogs who similarly to himself have been mistreated by their parents. It is not shared in the anime what happened in his past, but in the monga it shows that his father got abusive of his mother and his brothers, and his brothers all died after charging their father of a cliff and falling off with him. His mother died as well that I forgot how. After that he began helping out other young dogs who have been abused by their parents, and made a huge pack out of such dogs. He views himself as a father to them and they in turn view him as a father as well. He actually tries to instill good morals in to these dogs even though he is Rough around the edges. He does have a good sense of Justice even though he seems a bit harsh compared to weed. Weed sees his sense of Justice and wants him to join the pack after meeting him. They clashed initially because of his harsh treatment of his enemies, and distrust of Weed's adult pack mates but eventually does end up joining after seeing how Weed's compassion healed the relationship between Terru and his father before the latter died.
His personality is brash and explosive at times, yet also cool and collected at others. He does have some times where he is emotional though but they are few and far between. After tricking his own followers into believing he was a trader and they attacked him come up in a moment of severe pride in how they turned out to become real dogs without him noticing it he almost cries. Other than that he has mainly 2 moods, Angry and yelling or growling, Or simply trying to sound cool and calm, If not a bit aloof.(almost as if he is yawning a bit through his speech, lol.)
[Use this video as reference for the character, and his emotion. Timestamps are by each line number]
[Line 1] 0:29 (Kyoshiro sees a dog abusing his pup, not believing he didnt steal his food) "Why dont you believe him? Isn't he your son?"
[Line 2] 0:52 (Kyoshoro catches and is punishing that guy while he begs for his life) "No! There's no way I can let a guy like you live! I'll give you what you deserve!" (He really yells in the last sentence)
[Line 3] starts at around 1:15
(Weed pushes kyoshoro away) (looking up angrily with a bit of a growl then he regains his composure and calmly says,) "Who are you?" (Looks around and non-chalantly asks,) "Where did you all come from?" (They say he is outnumbered and he calmly and coolly replies) when I get angry, I tend not to care about anything else that's in my way."
[Line 4] about 1:40
(Annoyed at Weed) "kid, dont go nosing into other people's buisiness when you dont knew what's going on. It seems you need to learn what happens when you intrude. Watch!" (Shouts three loud howls)
[Line 5] (his subordinates are saying They will kill the Pup's father And Kyoshiro yells out angrily,) "Who are you going to kill!? Dont go any farther than you need to!" (Turns back to Weed and comments on them) "They're all only a year old but it's as if they have lived for 5 or 6 years. None of us have ever felt the love of a parent!"
[Line 6] around 4:10
(Kyoshiro calls Teru over and is softer toned when reassuring him) "kid, come over here. Dont worry, we have your father restrained." (The father begs his son to help and Kyoshiro yells) "Shut up! Why now!? You're only saying that because you're in trouble!" (He turns and explains to Weed) " This guy's father thought he was stealing food from him, so he started beating him. That's why I went to the extent of cutting one of his ears off. He did something a father shouldnt do.. He did something an adult shouldnt do! (Turns to Terru) "Well, Terru? Do you still think of him as your father?"
I LOVE IT! A REAL GOOD FIT! for the show I'm still going to wait about a week to decide, but really good! No joke, you fit this guy way better than Kagetora. I love the yells! The first howls were the best! I know howling and making it sound decent is a hard skill, lol.
