What's the fun in playing it safe?

KADOKURA TOSHIYUKI[門倉利運]!!!!

His name kanji are 利(advantageous) and 運(luck/destiny), i.e. “Advantageous Luck”

His parents blessed him!! He is the luckiest-named guy on the planet!!

Birthplace: Mutsu Province(which tbh is pretty vague- 29 hans were there in Mutsu no Kuni)

Likes: Sake and Squid

Dislikes: Shellfish

Quote: “It must have been the star I was born under…(misfortune)”

Noda’s Note: A perpetually weary, unmotivated and yet really sexy ossan(middle-aged man). I love this sort of a character.

Relations:-

Inudou: “The Inside Man”; Playing the role of a “tanuki”, he scouted around for intel. 

Hijikata: “Deeply Respects”; Due to his father’s influence Kadokura decided on being a follower. 

Kirawus

Birthplace: Roundabouts Kushiro, Hokkaido

Likes: Kokanee Salmon

Dislikes: Snakes and Locusts

Quote: “You’re going to fail if you don’t even think things through, Kadokura!”

Noda’s Note: Kirawus got his name Kirawus[キラウシ] because “as a child he was playing around with Deer antlers. Isn’t that adorable?” Kirawus is an Ainu word that describes things that have horns. The cute baby devil deer Kirawus-nispa.

On that note, the ainu word Kirau is a sort of basic Ainu siriki(traditional pattern) which is form of a thorn/spike/horn.

Relations:-

Nihei: “Hunting Companion”; While out hunting, Kirawus heard the story behind Nihei’s gun.

Kadokua: “Employer’s servant”; 雇い主の部下だが態度は適当だ

Kirawus is taller than Kadokura but Kadokura is heavier in weight. 

You had one job Noda I asked you Kirawus’ age

Also, 

From Q&As :-

Kirawus is the youngest child(in his family).

When asked about Kadokura’s past as regarding just how he went to school as a boy in his times and if he were from some well-to-do samurai family or reknowned or rich family. Noda stated Kadokura’s father was also unlucky and fell into ruin(poverty) and Noda thinks Kadokura was burdened with his “unluck”. 

When asked why of all people Kirawus hasn’t even taken off his matanpushi, Noda said he might draw Kirawus naked if the right opportunity presents itself and he doesn’t draw people naked just like that *ahem* really Noda? 

Kirawus canon likes a sort of fish. Kadokura the Tanuki we have seen him ask for fish as a bribe. Now it turns out Kadokura likes Fishing!

Q: What did Head Jailer Kadokura do on his holidays?

A: He likes fishing

Kirawus is unmarried and a confirmed bachelor

Kadokura used to be married once but his wife divorced him and she and their daughter ran off from him. Which once again brings me back to my fear reagarding who he is based on

Also,

Relationship: “An incongruous pair” or in my words, “They complete each other”

Nagakura paired up these two useless bums hoping they could be somewhat useful if together. And so they’ve been paired together ever since.

Take this as you will:- 

凸凹コンビ(Dekoboko combi) literally means “odd couple” and often that they are an equal-opposite duo, i.e. what one lacks the other compensates for. The phrase is used for siblings and best friends as much as it is for couples/lovers. The most cited example is Rain Man.

or as my dirty mind sees it *ahem* the two kanji’’s mean concave and convex and like…ummm…catch my drift
