He is kind enough to scold his own men for attacking a bartender, and politely let him continue his own work, and even told him to let him know if he and his men were bothering him with a cheerful smile. However, his civil nature will change completely if he sees his own blood, which causes him to uncontrollably enter a state of violent panic & anxiety that causes him to randomly start attacking and killing people, even if he was being friendly to them moments ago. | ||

==Manga & TV series== | |||
: Heart fought [[Kenshiro]] within Shin's palace at [[Southern Cross]] as the last of the Four Lieutenants. Heart would normally be immune to the effects of ''[[Hokuto Shin Ken]]'', but using the ''[[Hokuto Jūha Zan]]'' technique, Kenshiro was able to penetrate Heart's flesh and cause his body to explode. His iconic [[Danmatsuma|death cry]] was "HIDEBU", a corruption of ''Iteyo'' ("It hurts"). | |||
: In the television series, Heart along with the other three lieutenants are addressed as the "Four Jacks", with Heart being addressed as "Heart J". Thus, the "K<span style="color:red;">♥</span>" tattoo on his forehead is replaced by a "J<span style="color:red;">♥</span>" tattoo. He speaks in an effeminate manner when in "calm" mode, but masculine when in "crazed" mode. The battle between him and Kenshiro is set near a valley, in which Heart orders his troops to slaughter a group of escapees from a nearby prison leaving them gravely wounded shortly before fighting Ken. Instead of Shin, it is [[Joker]] who watches the fight and [[Nanto Shōten Ken|throws a playing card]] which cuts Heart's face, sending him into a momentary frenzy before Kenshiro kills him. | |||
==1986 movie== | |||
: In the 1986 movie, Heart's role is changed to being a henchman of [[Jagi]], along with [[Fox]] and [[Jackal]]. In an early movie trailer, his name appears listed as {{nihongo|'''Elephant'''|エレファント|Erefanto}} to go with the naming theme of the Warriors gang. Confronting Kenshiro already in his berserk state, this time at Jagi's hideout, Heart is once again killed by Kenshirō. | |||
