Kinda weird that the manga "basically" is built around the ZTB, and its only used like 2-3 times in the show. Makes me feel that they didnt need to use it in GNG at all :)
That is true. Ever wondered Riki with those jumping wolves behind him in the background in opening? As a kid I thought they were Iga- dogs; but that doesn't make sense. I think there were plans to make whole GNG-manga as anime adaptation, but they didn't do it for some reason. The Wolf-arc had pretty interesting ideas but they are now totally forgotten as if it never happened. Which is sad. It was the reason for me to buy the manga. I want to see the glorious Fuuga with golden zetsu tenrou battouga animated! Also other characters with their named moves adapted from the wolves, which we never see again like Kurotora, Ben, Akame.. etc.
I've always loved the battouga from Ginga and I've always seen it as a Pokemon move for Lycanroc sucks it never happened cause I think it would be a great callback to this dog anime
