It is excluded that the story takes places 14 years after the plot of Ginga Nagareboshi Gin / Silver Fang. Ben and other old dogs are still alive in the story, when they were not young even in the antecedent story either. Dogs do not live 20-25 years, I am convinced that something has been misinterpreted as for years.

THIS IS THE PROOF FOR THE DOG BREEDS http://www.geocities.com/lisaferret/wikipekidaPROOFjpeg.jpg I'm sorry if you don't understand Japanese; ask someone to read it for you.

This is confirmed.

Sakura - Kishu Mix
Reika - Akita Mix
Smith - French Spaniel Mix
Blue - Beacureon Mix
Hiro - Great Pyrenees

I can try and scan pages from my Japanese dog book that has the kanji, as well as English translations of the names if needed. The above scan is not mine, but I've got a book on different breeds that has the English translations of various breed names. The breeds are all correct. Yougurt, from GingaSite, also knows this, and the 'Sakura as Akita' is another rumor started by the fanbase, same as the rumor that Weed's siblings 'Joo' ('Joe', actually) was a female, as well as the Moss-Ben connection.

Was it you who scanned the photos above your comment, Haruko? It isn't signed, and I assume it was you since you said you would do such. The reason I ask is that, on the [Ginga Densetsu Weed] page, there is a site (GingaOnline.net) that is used as a source and disagrees with the scans.(Foxpen 00:17, 16 May 2007 (UTC))[reply]

Sorry, Foxpen. I'm (Mizzkie) the one who took the pics from the official book that has the breeds of Sakura, Smith, Reika, Blue, Hiro, etc, but I forgot(actually I didn't know how) to sign my name on it. As for the site you mentioned, I took a look at it, and it had very many errors (ex:Kagetora's brother is NOT called Hentai *blinks*) so I wouldn't trust it. After all, it's a FANsite, not official. It's not wise to believe everything on a fansite unless they are using official information given to us by Takahashi-sensei and/or books/manga/anime.

Hentai is the name of one of Jerome's followers according to that site, but that's not the point...I wasn't endorsing that site, as it were; rather, I was subtly suggesting it be rebuked as a source for the Ginga wikipages -because- of its errors. Since the scan you gave is from an official booklet, the site is clearly wrong. I was going to suggest different sites be cited, but decided that was for a different talk page ((rather, the [Ginga Densetsu Weed] talk page)). I...unfortunately got sidetracked and never got around to posting it.

But yes, that site is in no way trustable. (Foxpen 01:12, 31 May 2007 (UTC))[reply]

For other Ginga/WEED arguments, please take a look at my page. I do appologise for constantly saying "official proof" while not uploading more pics. In Japan(where I live) it is against the law to upload pictures/fanart without the author's permission, so I'm not allowed to take pictures for proof. But since so many people are especially unnotified of certain characters' breeds, I have uploaded a photo of the proof.MIZZKIE 09:50, 17 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I looked, but I also have an art book that clearly states that Hiro is a Saint Bernard, in ENGLISH, and Yougurt, owner of GingaSite.net, has that book you have as well, and her translators, which are making translations of the manga as we speak, say that's not what it says. On the GingaSite character list, they are listed as the breeds I put down. DameGreyWulf

Here is a picture that proves Hiro is a Saint Bernard. You can barely make it out, so typed it out for you. (Picture scanned by p3ntavus) And it is stated in the manga that Smith is an English Setter. There's no two ways about it. DameGreyWulf

I can confirm that foxpen's picture calls Hiro a Saint Pyranees. So yeah, the art book is wrong. O_O Blame it on the printers. It also calls Blue a Beauceron; Blue does not look like one of these, and they are very rare outside of France, but that is what the kanji says, and so we have to take Takahashi's word for it. So let's all shut up about the breeds now.

Powers?

“The main character, Weed, is the son of Gin, and appears to have been born with powers similar to his father's.”
What powers? That’s in the first paragraph with no context whatsoever. —Frungi 03:30, 30 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I believe they mean the Battouga, which isn't a power, rather a powerful fighting move.(Foxpen 01:13, 31 May 2007 (UTC))[reply]

Well I believe that's wholly not needed. It's mentioned later in the article that he's born with a resemblance to his father, which is enough.--12.207.142.70 04:11, 20 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
