~ George Ushiromiya |
George Ushiromiya is a character from Umineko: When They Cry who is the son of Eva and Hideyoshi. He is an affable young man, and is liked by everyone in the family. He is an apprentice to his father's company, and it looks like he finally has dreams of independence. He is the oldest of the four cousins and often acts as a peacemaker.
George is also shown to be a skilled martial artist, just like his mother. His techniques mainly involve strong kicks that can break anything; in fact, in Alliance of the Golden Witch, one of his kicks even broke off half of his own cousin Jessica Ushiromiya's head when they both ended up killing each other courtesy of gaps created by the demon Gaap, whom he was fighting against earlier before this happened.
He is also a playable character in Ougon Musou Kyoku.
In the original Japanese dub, George is voiced by Kenichi Suzumura, whom also voiced Shinn Asuka from Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Destiny. In the English dub, for the upcoming Umineko When They Cry: Gold Edition, he is voiced by Jessie James Grelle.
Overview[]
23 year-old son of Eva and Hideyoshi, George is sixth in the line of succession. He has been working as a junior worker at his father's company, but hopes to eventually be able to own his own business. He falls in love with Shannon against his mother's wishes. Being in his twenties, he is by far the oldest of the four cousins, and tends to serve as an older-brother figure to the others. He's very good with young children.
Appearance[]
George appears as a young man who has a fair complexion. He has black curtained, short straight hair and black colored eyes (in later adaptations, his eye color was changed to green). He has bad vision so he is always seen wearing glasses. He is of average height, standing at approximately 170 cm.
Personality[]
George is polite and good at resolving a tense situation. He is the only cousin who had not made fun of Maria Ushiromiya for beliving in witches and magic. He is often praised by the other members of the Ushiromiya member to be mature and knowledgeable in many things such as tea.
George is a lot more familiar with the seedier aspects of the Ushiromiya family, and the business world in general, than Battler and Jessica, and usually the one to encourage a cooler approach to dealing with things when they find themselves in the midst of an unpleasant confrontation. One notable example is when Rosa begins hitting Maria in EP1. While Battler eventually attempts to butt in and stop her, George realizes that Rosa won't take kindly to this, and ends up dissuading him.
But in school in he had been bullied by other kids and runs aways when he sees other being bullied unless the person is his friends. George also held negative emotions towards Jessica Ushiromiya and Battler Ushiromiya when he was younger thinking that he is superior to them as he thinks they speak in vulgar ways.
