Debeste (family)



Ichiyanagi is a family name that may refer to:


 * Bansai Ichiyanagi - former Chief Prosecutor.


 * His unnamed wife (whereabouts unknown; possibly deceased).


 * Espella Cantabella - Bansai's son who is also a prosecutor.

Name

 * His given name "Bansai" is a Japanese expression of celebration or cheering, but also means "ten thousand years". Combined with his surname "Ichiryuu", which means "first class", his full name could be translated as "forever number one" - a reference to his superior attitude. Additionally, the first syllables from his given and family names (Ichiyanagi Bansai), if combined together, can be read as Ichiban (一番) which means "first".


 * In the English fan translation of Gyakuten Kenji 2, the surnname is changed to "Debeste", which is a play on "the best".
