Tao Ren



Names: Tao Ren, Ren Tao, Lian Dao (correctly pronounced in Chinese), Len Tao, Lenny Tao (both in English dub of the anime)



Name meaning: Lotus (Japanese)



Age: 12/13 (in the manga), 15 (in the dub anime)



Birthday: January 1st 1986



Blood Type: AB



Nationality: Chinese



Spirit: Bason



Weapon: Kwan Dao/Horaiken ('Sword of Thunder' in the English dub)



Moves: Chuuka Zamai, Golden Vorpal Dance



History: Ren is the heir to the Tao family. This legendary line of Shaman were once the protectors of their homeland, China. Their powers defended their land and people for many centuries. But over time, the people's respect for the Taos declined, and they were cast away from the very land they had given their lives to protect. They were called witches and demons - the scurge of society.

That was many centuries ago... now, the Tao family is very small, and are living in hiding in the mountainous areas of China. Their only goal now is to train the one who is to be the Shaman King in the great tournament, so that this individual may restore the family to its former glory. This time around, the chosen one is Ren.



Personality: Due to his harsh upbringing by his father, En, Ren has quite a cold way of looking at the world. He sees everything as an obstruction, an opponent in his way of his goal to become Shaman King. He is cold and untrusting. He wants to get close to no one.

But this all changes when he meets Yoh Asakura and his friends. Being with them, trusting in them, he finds a new way to look at humans. They aren't the vile and disgusting creatures he had been raised to believe they were. He found they were full of compassion, love. Over time, he began to become more like them - he found the strength to love.





Horohoro





Names: Usui Horokeu, Horohoro, Horo, Trey, Trey Racer (both in the anime dub)



Name meaning: Hollow (Japanese)



Age: 13



Birthday: November 27th 1985



Blood Type: O



Nationality: Japanese (Ainu)



Spirit: Kororo (Corey in the English dub)



Weapon: Snowboard/Ikupasi



Moves: Scatter Sleet Shower, Avalanche, Spires of Awakening



History: Horo comes from the tribe known as the Ainus. The Ainu are an ancient tribe who come from the north - primarily Hokkaido. They are a race who worship nature, and believe that everything has a God, from every aspect of nature to the tools they use to craft decorations. Being so close to nature, the race have developed a bond with the tiny Koroppo Kuru spirits (Minutians) that live under lily-pads in their land. But because of factories that humans are building, the Koroppo Kuru territory is rapidly being wiped out. The Ainu tribe have chosen Horohoro to journey to Tokyo for the Shaman Tournament, so that he may win and create a world where the Ainus and the Koroppu Kurus may live in safety and harmony.



Personality: Normally quite easy-going and laid-back, Horo is in-touch with nature, and his inner-self, just as he has been taught by his tribe. But if someone makes him angry, they will know about it! Horo can get very hot-headed in a fight, and his determination always shines through. He is very proud of his heritage, being one of the last of the dying race of Ainus, and strives to always do his best to honour them and the Koroppo Kuru spirits. Along with help from his sister Pirika, he works his hardest to win the Shaman Tournament and be crowned Shaman King.

читать дальшеAbout RenxHoro



Looking at the characters of both Ren and Horo, it doesn't take a genius to see that this is one of the most unlikely pairings in Shaman King. But, that's only by looking at the surface. Looking deeper into their personalities, pasts and the events that occur in the anime/manga, it seems there is some fact behind the pairing.

This page will explain all of the possibilities to support the pairing. I want to prove all the RenxHoro doubters wrong!



The couple

Okay, the first simple thing I hear said about RenxHoro is: 'but they're two guys!'. My reply is a simple, 'so what?'. Is it wrong for two guys to like each other? Last time I checked it was a perfectly acceptable thing in society now - to most, anyway.

Okay, that's was the first simple hurdle down ^_~



The fights

Yep... whether you watch the anime or read the manga, in all languages, Horo and Ren are constantly arguing between themselves. Most people immediately see this as a reason that the two couldn't be together. Have they ever heard the saying: 'you always hurt the ones you love'? This could be very true of Ren and Horo. Also, due to Ren's 'caring' family upbringing, he seems to be lacking the ability to love. It could just so be that Ren's love for Horo would be the first time he has loved someone in this way. Therefore, he may be having difficulty showing it. Having these confusing feelings inside him may lead him to show his love in a way most wouldn't expect - and that is to argue with Horo at every available chance!



WARNING: spoilers for the anime/manga of Shaman King below! You have been warned!



Protecting Horo

In both the manga and the anime, Ren and Horo (along with Chocolove, Faust VIII and Ryu) find themselves fighting a team of Hao's. A blow from an enemy knocks Horo to the ground, and another bad guy decides to take a swipe at Horo while he is down. This blow probably would have finished off Horo - but who got in the way to deflect the blow, but Ren! Although it may seem like a little thing, it could actually be one of the biggest plotlines that may prove this. Some people may see it as just an act of friendship though, so we won't rule that out either. Everyone interperets it in their own ways, I suppose ^^



From Sharmaine: 'After Ren took the blow, Horo was affected the most, I think he even cried... Then when Ren was alive again, Horo was the most affected one as well... I think that's a proof...'
