Dec. 13th, 2022 06:59 pmThe Movie, Manga, and TV versions of Galaxy Express 999 has many overlaps as they're diverging tellings of the same story, but if there's a difference the movie version trumps.
Name: Tetsuro Hoshino
Age: 15
Origins: Earth
Canon point: 1979 movie, after being given his gun but before facing Count Mecha again.
Abilities: -Tetsuro has no supernatural abilities.
-He is sturdier than most boys his age due to a life of hard labor and scrounging to survive, but still within human limits.
-Tetsuro has shown basic pickpocketing skills and decent marksmanship with a gun.
-His most defining trait is sheer, single-minded stubbornness that defies all rationality - once he sets his mind to something, he is nearly impossible to dissuade even through mental manipulation.
Hug this character: Yes
Kiss: Yes, though he'll probably freeze
Ship: With anyone under 18, though he is rather goal-focused and oblivious.
Fight: Tetsuro would fight anyone, anytime, and has a habit of sticking his nose in other people's business.
Brief Bio: Tetsuro is a young man from a dystopic future earth where the rich achieve immortality by transferring their minds/soul into artificial bodies, and often become psychotically bored to the point of hunting flesh-and-blood people for sport. Tetsuro lived in abject poverty with his mother until she was murdered by Count Mecha and taken as a trophy.
He spent much of his teenage years working himself to the bone and stealing from the rich until he can afford to get a mechanical body, believing such a body is the only way to gain freedom and the ability to avenge his mother. During this time, he became a massive fanboy of Captain Harlock and Emeraldas, space pirates infamous for their defiance of the status quo.
He soon meets Maetel, a beautiful, mysterious woman who offered him a ticket on the exclusive galaxy train the 999 Express to the Andromedea galaxy, where there is a planet that gives people a mechanical body for free. Her resemblance to his late mother, and his desperation made him ignore any red flags, and rush to join her on the long trip through the sea of stars.
