Gingapedia is actually what made me confused about the two in the first place - in volume 3, Kojuurou calls Gekka and Kurogane by name, and a following panel shows the eyebrowed one standing next to Kurogane. I assumed this meant that Gekka was the dog with eyebrows and Shikkoku was the remaining one, but since Gingapedia claimed otherwise I assumed there's some point where it's made 100% clear which one's which.
Not anywhere that I've seen so far (volume 24).
It's Fuyuki.
I've been wondering the exact same thing for years now, and I don't think Joe was ever brought up by Orion with Gin or Weed, as if the three flat-out forgot he ever existed in the first place.
We don't know. All we know is that during the war against Koga, Akame wanted the war to end during his time and he left some puppies with human families to grow up. Those dogs did not allow their own puppies (Shirozaru and the others) be in any contact with Ohu army until Akame was dead (that's why Shirozaru, Rara and Muu came after the eruption - they thought Akame was dead).Kaiken wrote: ↑Sun Dec 09, 2018 12:10 amWho's Shirozaru's father? Did one of Akame's subordinates got scared and ran off during Koga battle and had pups? He must have until now lived a simple life either in wild or as pet in order to have no training and all abilities resting on good genes only? Judging by his brother's colors it seems they weren't the result of Iga's breeding program (lol) either, for Akame's legacy was to produce white puppies only by only mating with white females. That suggests Shirozaru's father went on his own, not bound by Iga's reglaments and created family with whoever he loved.
Also Akame doesn't seem too fond of his grandchildren, which suggests he might be bitter about their father, his son...
idk
Ooh, that's interesting. Didn't know that. I thought Akame's pups left by their own will.Doragon wrote: ↑Sun Dec 09, 2018 6:11 am

They are still around, you can spot them in some Ohu army group pictures, including in later TLW chapters. They're now just... Harutora-style characters who don't speak much, I guess?Troll Berserker wrote: ↑Sun Dec 09, 2018 11:36 amWhat ever happened to Shirozaru, Rara and Muu? I wonder why they weren't in TLW, i thought they joined Ohu army.
I don't think it's meant to be taken literally like there's someone specific, to me it's just about Masamune's unusual looks that make him stand out from his clan.
Which translation was this?
