SPIRIT's Diary

In Hakkenden: Fiction and Reality, a movie in 2024, some have pointed out, that Inuzuka Shino (Actor: Watanabe Keisuke) and Inusaka Keno (Actor: Itagaki Rihito) are the most outstanding in Hakkenshi/The Eight Dog Warriors. More thinking, both Mr. Watanabe and Mr. Itagaki have gotten ahead from Kamen Rider Zi-O. In original work too, Shino and Keno have common points below: ・They had raised up with female-dressing. ・Their names are derived from Japanese rivers. (From Shinano River or Keno/Kinu River) However, Keno is very beautiful people suitable to female-dressing, but Shino isn't very suitable to it. According to Fusehime Yashiki (https://fusehime.la.coocan.jp/), a homepage of thinking about Hakkenden, it seems that Keno and Shino have a bad relationship. It seems, that they have sense rivalry each other because they had raised up with female-dressing commonly. On the other hand, in my projects, "Harem Protagonists as Hakkenshi/The Eight Dog Warriors" "Garupan Capt...

Again, I requested Mihoniumu-san(@gupmihoniumu, key(gaigaigai123)) an illustration. This time is, “As Inusaka Keno, Yuuki Rito and Darjeeling are showing orbs of ‘智(Chi/wisdom)’.” Rito and Darjeeling: We’re Inusaka Keno Tanetomo. We have orbs of Chi（悌）/wisdom. Chat GPT says that Hakkenden is  "Japanese Avengers" or "Super Sentai/Power Rangers in Edo period". Among it, Inusaka Keno is very popular on account of gaps of beautiful appearance and cruel action. Both Rito and Darjeeling are also popular among Harem Protagonists and Garupan Captain Group. I think Rito and Darjeeling are very suited-role the most to Keno. (I prefer the pairs of Ichijou Raku and Nishi Kinuyo as Inuyama Dosetsu the most.) In next times, I requested an illustration of "Inumura Daikaku pair (Yuiga Nariyuki and Mika)". How will be the quality? HAKKENSHI! FIGHT FOR JUSTICE!! Casting of "Harem Protagonists as Hakkenshi" and "Garupan Captain Group as Hakkenshi" is be...

 Sixth, I decided to introduce Inusaka Keno. ・Inusaka Keno's character He has an orb engraved with the character "智(Chi/Wisdom)." He has a peony-shaped birthmark on his right elbow (right thigh in the OVA "The Hakkenden"). Before he was born, his father was killed by the evil vassals, Makuwari Taiki and Komiyama Ittouta. And to escape their eyes, his mother gave him a girl's name, and from the age of 3 to 15, he belonged to a female dengaku troupe, which was a nightlife business at the time. He's a beautiful boy who looked natural even when dressed as a woman. So, he distinguished himself as a female dengaku performer, Asakeno, and he approached to Makuwari and finished his revenge. His cunning and versatility, even dressing up as a woman, a begger and so on, to try to revenge, make him stand out in comparison to the other Hakkenshi who are all the samurais like samurais. In the original work and elsewhere, he is often portrayed as a taciturn, unsociable...
