Takeshi Gouda

Takeshi Gouda (Japanese Kanji: 剛田武ごうだたけし), (born June 15th), more commonly known by his nickname Gian (Japanese: ジャイアン, translation of the English term Giant Filipino: Damulag), is one of the five main characters of the Doraemon franchise. He is a protagonist at best and the semi-main antagonist at worst in the series. In the U.S. and U.K. dubs, he is known as Big G. Gian is recognized by his large build (might partly be contributed by obesity), as well as his mean and aggressive behavior. He "rules" the neighborhood with force, often to the physical expense of other children, especially Nobita, who often resorts to asking Doraemon for gadgets to get even on him. He appears to be just as depending on Nobita as Nobita is to Doraemon as he constantly tells him what to do despite Nobita's protest. In addition, he has a tendency and desire to steal things from other children, usually Suneo, who offers himself to be Gian's sidekick on most occasions. Despite his flaws and big bully appearance, Gian is actually a good person inside and always helps his friends and is loyal to them when they are in trouble. The official US Doraemon website states that deep inside, Gian is just a simple guy with a big heart. In the 1979 anime, Gian is voiced by Kazuya Tatekabe, and in the 2005 anime, he is voiced by Subaru Kimura. Gian's signature colour is orange and he is usually represented by it.
