Daisuke

12-year old Daisuke is Fuji’s owner and Gin’s friend. Daisuke trains Gin for the old man Takeda Gohei when the old man gets too weak to do it. Daisuke learns to use a hunting bow and kills a bear together with Gin. Even though Gin runs away with the wild dogs, Daisuke keeps the faith that Gin will one day return to kill Akakabuto.
