According to the scans from the special issue, he is from the Kagiroi clan. There is not Hotaru among the "F".

Are you sure? As far as I can tell from from Volume 9 Pages 12-13 (where all the older family members are introduced for Souichirou's training) Hotaru is clearly the older woman with the black hair (check http://tjtg.mangatranslation.com/characters/tjtg_characters.html - I have her labelled Hotaru)...

Yes, the abilities of the red feathers are gained from opening the Dragon Gates--but each clan is very specific to the type of dragon they use so far. The Dragon Fist of the Nagi Clan is specific to them--the Nagi Clan's Dragon Fist as the manga goes--which is why since ancient times they have alwa...

Actually no. You can take a look at that Nagi vs. Sagara fight and take a look at how Maya explains the nuances behind it. Furthermore, the powers of the red feathers are specific to each clan and are very much passed on from generation to generation. If the forged needle in itself is a red feather...

The forged needle is not magic. It's a technique of the Takayanagi's own brand of martial arts. In fact, Nagi is able to pull it off because it's the first move that he was able to learn from the reverse striking training that he received from Maya. That's only because Nagi himself is a Red Feather...

As for Natsumes, well, they are a Red family, i.e. they use ki for magic, but the latest generation of Natsume's have been very bad with it. They have eit...

As for how he broke the blades, I guess that's one of the secret techniques on the chip Dougen smuggled from Takayanagi HQ, and Kurei later found. There's a lot more about the chip l...

Actually, they can do a past arc with no problem. Here's the deal. Episodes 1-3 = Volume 1. Episodes 26 = Volume 8+ Thus, they'll be able to do the Present Arc, then the Past arc, then, again, the Present Arc. Personally, I think that they can stop right at the beginning of the F Arc, which begins i...

One question: Why didn't Kago fall like the rest of the clans?

Another possibility was that Kago swore fealty to Matsuomi (even though he seems to be s...

Actually, Makiko can do it just fine. In one of the following chapters Yorihira comments on how "eating" other dragons is a property of the Dragon Fist. Since the latter is a gate of the Nagi family, it would be logical that Makiko has at least a potential to open the Dragon's Gate and using this po...

I somehow doubt that Mitsuomi will fight for Kago. First of all, Mitsuomi fights for himself and his presidency. He needs fighters since the Enforcers are for the most part beaten. And here comes Kago with the F. Hmm, isn't that convenient. Somehow I have feeling that we'll see a Kago vs. Mitsuomi. ...

Souhaku is actually Kago Souhaku from the Kago clan, one of the heads of the Red Feather families. It is not absolutely certain, what his power is, but he can do necromancy.

Takayanagi are the head of the Phoenix, so I guess they are neigher. Although Mitsuomi seems to be gravitating toward the Whites a bit, using his spirit technique for fighting, more than for magic. But I guess this varies with the person (Nagi's a Red, while Souichiro fights, and the same can be sai...

The problem is, they don't have birthdays the same day they start school. So, in any given schoolyear, they can be either x years old, or x+1 years old. So, if Maya, or Mits, were born somewhere mid-school year, they could be either 17, or very close to 18, if not over 18. That's the logic. Same for...

Is it customary for students to start high school at 15? As for Tawara, his motive to stay beyond his 3rd year probably came from his desire to be by Mitsuomi's side and keep him cool.

Yeah, i noticed it as well. It is a reference to an earlier training excercise, where Bob was running with Maya sitting on a tire. Pretty funny insider gag.shouki wrote:v11, p124, top left-hand frame. (page 126 too)
Look at what's on the tire! (particularly the two "antenna")
