WikiProject Dogs To-do:

Here are some tasks you can do to help with WikiProject Dogs:

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 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.

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]

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]
