Hi fellow Cain fans! I've just finished the entire Earl Cain (I prefer to call it "Earl Cain" rather than "Count Cain" just because he's not called a count at all in the series and I'm weird when it comes to names and titles of people >.<)

Anyway, I love this series; it has become my favourite manga of all time (just barely surpassing Angel

XD Then I guess it was just a coincidence LOL But you have to admit it's freaky! LOL

Christopher, huh? I dunno...it doesn't really seem to fit, but whatever. I guess it's not really important, but still XP

In the two Japanese compilation editions of Earl Cain under the dust jacket his name is there as Cain Christopher Hargreaves. Let me take a picture. ^_^

Friendly mod welcome :DDD

I actually prefer to call it "Earl Cain", too, but I think we decided on count_cain instead because that's what Sakura-Crisis was calling it at the time...

The only thing that bothered me was the plot hole (when did Riff's little sister become a younger brother named Clyde?!)
WHAT. I didn't even notice that...

we never find out what Cain's middle name is! What does the C. stand for? Is it actually in there somewhere and I just read right over it?
Yeah, I have no idea, but I seem to recall "Christopher" being a reasonable choice thrown around? I also like "Cupcake" 8D

Yay, thanks for the welcome XD

I wonder if they just called it Count Cain because it was aliteration and flowed better?

Haha! I didn't notice at first either, but in "Seal of the Red Ram" part 1, when Uncle Neil mentions Riff's suicide attempts, Riff says, "I shut out that part of my mind in order to forget the fact that my parents and little sister were burned like pieces of paper."

Haha! Cupcake?! That's a good one LOL

In "Godless" when Madame Octavia "saw through Cain's disguise" (what kind of disguise was that?! He was wearing a pair of glasses!)
Yup. The Superman disguise . . . made me laugh at the scene XD Did Cain really think it would work?

The Castro scene was hilarious. It made me giggle. 8D Hm . . . I wonder what my list of scenes would be . . . probably a bunch of Riff & Cain. >__>' [but who knows, after a little study I learned I tend to like brunette characters not blondes as I thought. Cindy learned she prefers black to red.]

Haha! I know eh? He's had so many different disguises over the course of the series, he'd have been better off to dress like a woman again.

I couldn't choose any specific Riff & Cain moments 'cause they're all so adorable. I actually have four categories that my favourite characters always fall into (I had a list and only five characters that I could think of in a list of over thirty were exceptions to this rule). Mine being:
- Has an evil nature
- Has dark brown/black hair
- Has long hair
- Wears glasses

It was quite amusing to discover I'm so predictable that if it came to an anime/manga/game, people could probably guess which character would become my favourite. Oh, and, it's not really a category, but 9 times out of 10, my favourites are males XD
