comment |
Dogs is a manga written and illustrated by Shirow Miwa, set in a dystopian, post-apocalyptic setting where it is always winter. Genetic manipulation exists in various forms, from creating attractive child prostitutes to making bizarre weapons. The organisation running the underground world seems to be the cause of a lot of violence and corruption... Including certain events in the main characters' pasts. The trouble is, those characters don't have the whole story. Either they're trying to find who exactly is behind something, or who killed X person, or just what got Y involved in it all. Familial angst is prevalent, as are people who are a lot more involved than they first seem. But whatever their reasons or pasts, they're in it together.The series started as a one-shot titled Dogs: Stray Dogs Howling in the Dark, which introduced the four main characters and gave a little backstory for some of them; this was serialized in Ultra Jump from 2000 to 2001 and compiled into a single volume. Dogs: Hardcore Twins introduced Luki and Noki, two young girls who treat killing as a game. Later on, Dogs: Bullets & Carnage began serialization in Ultra Jump in 2005 and started the main plot aspect, revealing more about the characters, introducing new ones, and dishing it all out with heaps of action.There's also an OVA, also titled Dogs: Stray Dogs Howling in the Dark, which is based on the original manga. |

comment |
Parental Abandonment: Naoto's parents were murdered, Badou's parents are never mentioned, and if Heine (or anyone else with a Kerberos spine) has real parents, they're never brought up. Heine and the other experiments DON'T have parents. In chapter 69, Angelika Einstürzen makes a comment to Heine that he, Lily, Giovanni, and all the other kids in the Kerberos experiment were grown from her genes. This would make her their biological parent. |

The last woman (Einstürzen) Heine really trusted turned him into a monster, the last woman (Lily) he held close he ended up ripping to pieces. Despite knowing logically that he has a lot less to fear from women than most men and other women do, Heine has every right to be afraid. |

Death Is Cheap |
| | Dogs: Bullets & Carnage (Manga) / int_37fcf16 |
comment |
Death Is Cheap: Somewhat. At least applies if said dead person was important to one of the main characters. Lily, Heine's "younger sister," is dead, but Angelika Einstürzen later shows up in chapter 69 and confronts Heine while using a body that is a Lily-look alike. Then as of chapter 75, Fuyumine, the man that saved Naoto, has been revealed to be alive and the man that Magato killed wasn't really him. And, of course, there's Badou and implications that his brother may not actually be dead at all. |

No Loves Intersect: The Ship Tease in this manga seems to follow this: Heine gets teased with Naoto, Badou gets teased with his friend Mimi, Mihai is already Platonic Life-Partners or an Official Couple with Kiri, and even Nill has her own Love Interest. The only possible exception to this is Magato's obsession with naoto, but we have no idea what the hell that's all about anyway. |

Badass Boast: Frühling boasts that no one who's ever seen her has lived to tell the tale, which is pretty much true. But it's only on a technicality. Ernst Rammsteiner - that is, Bishop, the blind priest - fights her and lives. |

Spell My Name With An S: Haine or Heine? Mihai or Michai? Einstellsehn or Einstürzen? Official translations go with the latter, rightly so because it's meant as a Shout-Out to Einstürzende Neubauten. According to this post on Miwa Shirow's twitpic account, "Heine" is the correct spelling. (ハイネ = "Heine") "Haine" is just how it's transcribed in Japanese. Though the spines are often called Cerberus, the official translations go with Kerberos. |

Children Are Innocent: Despite the fact that they enjoy fighting and killing, Luki and Noki have always been portrayed as oddly innocent, and they don't even seem to know that killing is wrong. At heart, they're just children who would be completely normal if not for the weapons and the brainwashing that makes them think nothing of killing. When the twins are Brainwashed and Crazy, both Naoto and Badou feel horrible for having to hurt them, and Badou is even enraged that somebody could do that to a child. |

He-Man Woman Hater: Heine has some issues regarding women. The last woman (Einstürzen) Heine really trusted turned him into a monster, the last woman (Lily) he held close he ended up ripping to pieces. Despite knowing logically that he has a lot less to fear from women than most men and other women do, Heine has every right to be afraid. |

Demoted to Extra: Despite Heine's spine being a very important plot point, the manifestation of the spine, "the Dog", doesn't seem to be very important at all. He's only appeared in illustration a handful of times during the comic's 7+ years ongoing run, and it's usually just to mock Heine or provoke him into letting him (Spine) take control. |

Ship Tease |
| | Dogs: Bullets & Carnage (Manga) / int_dcb9c541 |
comment |
Ship Tease: Quite a bit between Heine and Naoto as the series progresses. These two◊ links◊ are some of the high points (spoiler warning). And then there's THIS,◊ though the context of the story casts it in more of a Black Widow light. Then there's the fact that the woman in the picture is possessed by his mother who currently inhabiting the remains of his SISTER. |

comment |
Chekhov's Gunman: Badou shows up very briefly (and gets a line) in Mihai's intro chapter. Luki and Noki show up a few pages later. Heine is first mentioned briefly in Badou's intro chapter. |

Big-Lipped Alligator Momentinvoked: In Chapter 44, a serious conversation between Heine and Giovanni is interrupted by Marcel Calcerino and his gang speeding by in a van being attacked by Einstürzen's men. Heine and Giovanni both stop for a moment to marvel at how bad Calcerino's luck is before getting back to the shooting. |

Running Gag |
| | Dogs: Bullets & Carnage (Manga) / int_f9f2c33 |
comment |
Running Gag: After Carsellino had half his face bitten off by Heine within the first few chapters of the story, it's been a bit of a running gag that his luck is just the worst, as he's continually caught up in the main characters' antics, and he frequently plots and attempts (and fails) to get revenge on Heine. |

comment |
You Killed My Father: Naoto, but with both her parents. Doubly subverted, as the man she originally believed to be her parents' killer got killed by Magato before she could do it, and then it turned out that man wasn't the one who did it after all. She's now looking for their true killer. Subverted again when we learn they were not her parents. |

Theme Naming |
| | Dogs: Bullets & Carnage (Manga) / int_fd94c4ac |
comment |
Theme Naming: Heine Rammsteiner and Professor Einstürzen are named after German bands (Rammstein and Einstürzende Neubauten, respectively). And then there's Badou Nails, named for Nine Inch Nails. "Frühling" is German for "spring". Meanwhile, "Herbst" is German for "autumn" and "Fuyumine" is Japanese for "winter peak". There's no "summer" yet, though. |
