Tetsurou Okonogi: Difference between revisions

m
Line 51:
In the manga, it is shown that Okonogi, along with a few other [[Mountain Hounds]], was directly involved in the murder of Rika's mother- particularly her capture. Up until June of 1983 Okonogi stayed out of the line of action until the day before the [[Watanagashi Festival]] - it is shown that he was in charge of all commanding operations regarding the capture of[[Jirou Tomitake]], [[Rika Furude]], and [[Kyousuke Irie]]. It is interesting to note that he recalled facing off against [[Mamoru Akasaka]] in the [[Himatsubushi-hen|kidnapping case five years earlier]] and was glad to see that he had been training since. This however, was not present in the anime adaption as his appearance during the kidnapping was replaced by a generic Mountain Hound member.
 
During the battle on the mountain, Okonogi becomes visibly irritated with the [[Mountain Hounds|Mountain Hounds']] incompetence in such battle situations. This is due to the team not being professionally trained as a combat force, as Okonogi would have preferred. He had overestimated the Mountain Hounds' ability to handle themselves in guerrilla warfare-like situations, and subsequently suffered many losses and ultimately defeat by surrendering to the [[[Watchdogs]]. The entire time he maintained communications with [[Nomura]] and, by the time of the surrender, he was prepared to shoot [[Miyo Takano]] as a plab B. After surrendering, he instead left it up to Takano to shoot herself, while musing that he was going "too easy" on her.
