lee eddie

Lead guitarist of Dying Breed, Eddie was Ryusuke's close and only friend. Growing up together, they engaged in carjacking, during which Eddie helped Ryusuke find Beck, the seemingly patchwork dog, and Lucille. His appearance is reminiscent of Kurt Cobain from Nirvana, but he could also be based on Eddie Vedder of Pearl Jam or Geddy Lee of Rush.

Before his death, Eddie entrusted Koyuki with a portion of his new song "Devil's Way." Later, Beck completed the song and performed it live in honor of Eddie.
