Revision as of 12:33, 8 January 2014
The (sizable) cast of Dog Days, sorted by country.
Earthlings
Cinque Izumi
Voiced by: Mamoru Miyano |
Thirteen-year-old British-Japanese boy summoned by Millhiore as the Hero of Biscotti to counter Gallette's increasing aggressions. Master of the holy sword Palladion.
- Accidental Pervert: Accidentally groped Eclair and stripped her down to her panties, and saw Millhiore nude thrice.
- Badass Normal: Turns into a Badass Abnormal once he starts learning basic magic spells.
- Blade On a Stick: In Dash, he can now transform Palladion into a lance.
- Blue Eyes
- But Not Too Foreign: He is half-British (specifically, from Cornwall in southwest England), explaining his blond hair.
- Determinator
- Hachimaki
- Hair of Gold
- The Hero: For Millhiore and Biscotti.
- Hover Board: The "Tornada".
- Le Parkour
- Meaningful Name: "Shinku", the Japanese spelling of his name, means red. Guess what his primary outfit color is...
- Nice Guy
- Only Known By Their Nickname
- Playing Against Type: A Nice Guy like Cinque is certainly a departure from his voice actor's better-known roles as an angsty teen whose yearning for his friends led him to the dark side, a cynic with a God complex who can kill with a black notebook, and a Kurdish war orphan who has vowed to end all war whatever the cost.
- Simple Staff: He turns his Palladion into this. In Dash he also allows it to transform into a spear.
- Spell My Name With an "S": Some fansubs translate his name as "Shinku", although its inscription in katakana implies it is a foreign name.
- Summon Everyman Hero
- You Can't Go Home Again: In Episode 2 of the first season, he discovers, much to his despair, that once summoned to Flonyard, he can never return home again. Ricotta ultimately found a way to do so, but it also ran the risk of wiping out his memories of Flonyard and barring him from returning. Turns out the mementos he left for his friends ultimately gave Ricotta a way to bring him back and restore his memories.
