So let’s do the less important characters, starting with Masumi.

Masumi Koutsu’s name is 光津真澄 , Koutsu, Masumi.

光, kou, means light, though here the intended meaning is likely luster.

津, tsu, means haven, port, harbor, or ferry.

真, ma, means truth, reality, but here the intented meaning is likely clear.

澄, sumi, means clean, pure, or rarely serene.

***

A bit clearing:

**亨通, koutsuu, can mean doing well, prosperous.

**Masumi doesn’t mean anything specific in Japanese, but it is notable being a unisex name, despite being predominantly used for women.

**tsu, and ma Kanji can be both read as “shin”, alluding to Shingo, the official 4th LDS member.

***tsu Kanji specifically alludes to watari, crossing, Kanji in Shingo’s name. It is similar to tsuki/getsu, alluding to En Moon, since Masumi is a Fusion user.

**Despite her name containing LIGHT Kanji, she largely uses EARTH monsters. The light Kanji might be a Yuzu allusion, though, since it is similar to zu Kanji’s alternate reading as ko.

********************************************************

Hokuto Shijima’s name is 志島北斗, Shijima Hokuto.

志, shi, means purpose, will, determiniation, aspiration, ambition. Also other meanings of shi are here.

島, jima, more commonly spelled as shima, means island, or one’s domain/turf. Jima spelling more commonly used for island, though.

北斗, hokuto, just means big dipper, as a borrowed term from Chinese. 北, hoku, means north, and 斗, to, means Big Dipper in Chinese, and by itself means dipper in Chinese. This is more commonly translated as north star, though that is an incorrect, but nice sounding translation. Polaris is part of Big Dipper, but is not the star system collectively, obviously.

*****

**しじま, shijima, is an alternate spelling of 静寂, or 黙, and means silence/silent, quiet, or calm.

**The ma part in Shijima is similar to Yuma, whereas to in Hokuto is similar to Yuto.

***As we discussed in Yuto’s post, this is one of the likely origins of “to” in his name.

**Big Dipper doesn’t have much significance for Hokuto, though it is important in ZEXAL mythos, being the name origin of Barians.

**Much like Masumi, Hokuto is a unisex name.

***************************************************************************************************

Yaiba Todo’s name is 刀堂刃, Toudou, Yaiba.

刀, tou, means blade, knife, or sword, but specifically refers to a single-edged blade, or knife, such as a katana.

堂, dou, means temple, shrine, or hall.

刃, yaiba, also means sword, or blade, but can colloquially mean strong person.

The Kanji for yaiba, and tou are very similar.

****

**The sword temple meaning here likely refers to Isonokami Shrine, a famous Shinto shrine.

***Despite this, since X-Sabers are travelling mercanaries, Yaiba’s aesthethic is more evocative of a ronin (similar to Roxas in Kingdom Hearts, or Auron in FFX, or samurai class in general for FF), who were generally Buddhist followers, though not really committed to a specific sect. This contrasts with Gongenzaka, who is a samurai with a clear master of sorts (Yuya, though like Benkei, and Yoshitsune, they are really equivalent).

**Swords in the context of Synchros generally allude to Buddhism, or Chivalrous Knights. Yaiba’s Deck, X-Sabers, in contrast, use swords commonly used by European mercaneries, such as claymores.

**Todo surname alludes to Todo Heisuke (Heisuke Todo in English spelling), a semi-famous early modern ronin involved in Shinsengumi.

Me, fully aware that Arc-V writers tend make minor characters disappear and unimportant: WHERE IS THE LDS TRIO

#kit.txt #arcv #arc v #lds trio

Togetherness from Galavant Season 1

Just imagine the LDS Trio singing this though... Hokuto as Galavant, Yaiba as Sid, and Masumi as Isabella.

Hush, no, I’m still not over this.

#togetherness #galavant #lds trio

Masumi:remember when we used to do things.

Yaiba:Gongenzaka couldn't even Synchro summon without me I DEMAND RESPECT.

Hokuto:Can I not be dead anymore?

Writers:who are you people again?
