Why is this serie called Kiba?

I was wondering why it's called Kiba. If I'm not mistaken, Kiba translates to fang. I can't remember seeing anything related to a fang or anything or anyone called Kiba. It just feels to me like they picked a random name for the series.

I think it has to go to the fact that Zed acts rather harsh and fights a lot like a animal that does have a fang.... or it could also mean something similar to a sword and showing unrest in a war torn world. There are many things I see that symbolize problems in the anime and a fang could be used as the analogy for it.

I agree, I don't see anything else that could relate to the name besides that.

My sister looked it up once, and I think she said "kiba" meant "spiritual place," which to me makes more sense than "fang." Zed does leave his world and goes to a different one that is sort of spiritual, since they have Shard Casters and things like that.

kiba in hebrew means "protect, shelter", which the spirits do
