“Why the fuck would you name me after a dog from a crappy old movie?” Kirishima Ayato is aghast.
“Because it suits you,” Takizawa Seidou snickers. “Here, Toto! There, Toto! Everywhere, a little Toto!”
Ayato turns purple.
“Don’t kill him,” Hinami pleads. “Tatara won’t like that.”
“Hina, he nicknamed me Toto.”
And so Ayato’s hatred of Takizawa begins. For months he fears that the ranks of Aogiri have called him a yippy dog behind his back.
But when the nickname dies along with Aogiri, he and Takizawa both find themselves in GOAT.
Just before Takizawa battles Amon Koutarou in CCG’s lab, he turns around and says, “Take care, Toto.”
And Ayato finds himself battling a lump in his throat.
