Riku

Hair Color: White

Riku is the pet dog of Shizu, and his loyal vassal. Despite being a dog, he is able to speak. He first appears alongside Shizu in the Land of Colosseum. He refers to his master as Master Shizu at all times. He's oftentimes the narrator of some of the chapters in which center around Shizu, Ti and himself.

Riku is a white Samoyed, with white busy fur. He states that while he always looks happy and smiling, that is not how he always feels. Being not only Shizu's pet, but also his only vassal, he cares strongly for his master's well being, and tries in vain to have Shizu reconsider his journey back home. Despite his master's insistence on continuing with his plan, his loyally stays alongside him. He's oftentimes designated as the ward of the children that he and Shizu come across and care for on their travels.
