Favorite story in Dogs

Post by FuguTabetai »

Which of the four stories presented is your favorite? I'm partial myself to weepy old killer, because I think it is just so well presented, and I love the character of Mihai. Badou's story is kind of comic relief, but entertaining. Blade Maiden would have to be my close second favorite, with Haine's part coming close behind. Haine's pretty damn cool too.

I doubt anyone would choose the intermission. :)

Blade maiden is definitely my favorite, it is pretty grim, but in all honesty reality is more grim than anyone would have you to believe. Miwa Shirou's somewhat dark manner of story composition and his gorgeous style of art make for an awe inspiring combination in "Dogs". This is definitely going to be my all time favorite series(hopefully more tanks will be released). Also Knives/Swords > Guns, its just more slick in my opinion.
Favorites in Order:
1. Blade Maiden (as polled)
2. Stray Dogs Howling in the Dark (Haine is indeed pretty damn cool)
3. Weepy Old Killer (Reminds me of "The Professional" for some reason)
4. Gun Smoker (Last, but not least, real fun story, Badou is just badass during nicotine withdrawal)

I liked Haine's story best because looked very interesting. Blade master wasn't that bad probably comes in second.

Gun Smoker all the way XD!!! OMFG!! I so love Badou. I mean what an original concept!!! XD!!! OMG!

Stray Dog's Howling in the Dark would come in second. Its a mixture of 2 cool things. :D And I like Nill. She's so cute...and it has Badou being silly. I mean come on. *shoots up place* "How long do I have to do this? Can I go home now?" XD!!! He's a simply BRILLIANT idea.

Weepy Old Killer and Blade Maiden kind of tie for third. Both powerful stories, but LMFAO x.x Badou is just so f*ckin funny, mang.

4. Weepy old killer

I found Weepy Old Killer terribly, awfully paced, not to mention massively melodramatic (instead of just plain "dramatic"). I could barely make it through.

Gun Smoker was fun and had no drama to make me cringe (like the cheesy stuff from Killer). It was dumb fun.

Stray Dogs had a good balance.

Maiden was awfully clich

Im with you Bunshichi Lover on this. Gun Smoker was an excellent story with comedy thrown in. It really gave me a Nastolgic feeling.
The greatest tragedy in life is that there is no theme music.

I voted Haine's, but I think it's really a threeway tie between Haine's story, Mihai's and Badou's.

... >.> I didn't like Naoto's at all. Boring.

I didn't want to say anything because I thought it was pretty obvious, but check http://mangatranslation.com/dogs/ for the BitTorrent download for Dogs Volume 1.

1) stray dogs howling in the dark
2) gunsmoker
3) weepy old killer
4) blade maiden

XD obviously haine's was my faviie, then badou's because it had awfully sarcastic and great comedy as well as clever narration, then weepy old killer because i like mihai, and last blade maiden because while it was pretty, it was a bit cliche.

Naoto's

Blade Maiden would be mine, both because I like Naoto and the story seemed deeper than the rest in a more realistic way than the others. It was also sad and revenge filled, which I like too.

I like Haine's story because I think he and Nill are cute.
