Favourite Kai Ken

Post by Gingaddict »

Mine would have be Kagetora, I find him to be honorable, level-headed and I like his bromance with Ken.

Least favourite is the evil ones from GDWO as they felt unbelievably dark in their violence I mean they rip open a bear's stomach!
I did a Ginga dog horoscope and according my calculations, I am most like Gin! Am I lucky?

I took one of those 'Which character are you?' tests, one which happened to be Ginga related and it said I would
be most like Tesshin! I feel quite honoured!

Hmmm favorite would have to be Terumune, Kagetora, Shigure, or Chutora

Least favorites are definitely Kurokirimaru and Kousetsu

Hoorah! :orion3:
I especially like the Kai designs in GDWO, there's a bit more originality to them I feel.

Mine would be Akatora, as I'm mostly a fan of GNG and don't find much interest in the sequels. In GNG I feel Akatora is the most established out of the three kai brothers, with the most character development and a clear beginning-middle-end to his personal story. It's clear that he's the leader of the trio and that Yoshi put the most thought into him and gives him a more important and central role compared to Chūtora and Kurotora, both of whom to me just ends up feeling like sidekicks with not much to do.

Had Yoshi given all three brothers more equal focus in the story, it would be a more difficult choice. But as it stands I don't think there's enough to neither Chūtora or Kurotora for there to even be a question of whom the more interesting character (and subsequently my favorite of the three) is. Character building and development is key, and I feel that both Chūtora and Kurotora lack that.

Most likely Kagetora or Bull.

But Masamune is a Kai mix like his whole clan and he is one if my fav charactersof the entire series. I'd just feel bad for choosing him as the fav Kai when he really doesn't look like one hahaha!

I got Chutora as my favorite Kai Ken. However, I also favor Bull/Buru from Lonely Ron.

For my least favorite, it’s Kurotora. That is all.
