History

Bloody Roar: Extreme

"Being only a guest character to the series, he has no story."

Bloody Roar: The Fang

Fang is the main protagonist within the manga, joining together with a young school girl, Mashiro, in dealing with other Zoanthropes (and other strange creatures) causing trouble in their area. Eventually he has to face off against a dark creature that was brought to life by the joining of four talismans. Fang, using special gloves, can break the beast transformation - he uses his power to defeat the evil entity.

Personality

He is very much like Yugo. He appears cocky and overzealous, though has very heroic qualities - a strong will and great determination to protect people around him. He appears somewhat dimwitted at times, but is usually on top of things when they get dangerous.

Gameplay

He plays very similar to Yugo, though has a few of his own moves.

Trivia

*Fang appears to be based on Yugo, from his attitude to his scar, albeit it being a different shape.
*His beast drive that utilizes a beast change breaking punch is based on the manga attack in which he can revert his foe back into human form with a punch while wearing special gloves.
*He is the only character in the Western version to keep his Japanese voice artist.
*In V Jump's release of the Bloody Roar Extreme Capture Book, there is a short, one-off manga drawn by Maruyama Tomowo, based around the game and includes Fang and Mashiro travelling to the Zoanthrope City - other characters included are Yugo, Cronos and Ganesha.
