Nagahide Kaneda (金田長英, Kaneda Nagahide) is a fictional character from the manga series of Koukou Tekkenden Tough. He's called Kin (キン, Kin) by Kiichi.
Personality[]
He presents himself as an easygoing and kind-hearted person, but he is in actuality a very intense and fight-happy man who will go all out on his opponent, even if they're much weaker than he is, as he punched Yousuke Nishijima in the fist so hard that it gave him some open fractures, and also hospitalized Kuroda when he fought him to scout out information about how he fights and the power of the Kenjutsukan Karate style for Kiibou.
He is also similar to Kiibou in some ways due to his aformentioned love of fighting and also having a lot of pride in Kenjutsukan Karate, as he participated in a Full Contact Karate tournament without his master's consent so that he could bring publicity to the art, mirroring Kiichi's pride in the Nadashinkage-ryuu style and how he has attempted to bring publicity to it as well. He also gets more invigorated in the concept of having a proper match with Kiibo when he threatened that he could beat him only with using the Nadashinkage-ryuu's standing techniques.
Appearance[]
He is a tall man with a big chin and relatively short hair. Unlike most Japanese characters in the Tough series, Kaneda is more visually recognizable as being an eastern-asian person due to his almond eyes.
History[]
Koukou Tekkenden Tough[]
Nagahide Kaneda spent most of his life wishing that would die as due to the being bullied on a daily basis everyday was hell for him. However all of that changed the day he met Tetsuzan Kuramoto and began training the Kenjutsukan Karate style. To that end he began to promote knowledge of the art.
It was because of this that without his masters knowledge he entered the same Full Contact Karate Tournament as Kiichi Miyazawa. When he fought Yousuke Nishijima during the finals he struck him down in one hit.
Abilities[]
Nagahide Kaneda is a real human weapon. He is one of the few students of Tetsuzan Kuramoto to follow him an all of his training techniques no matter how punishing they were. It is for this reason that the day before his match against Kiichi his master gave him his black belt.
