Thinking out loud here, but this "Ozuru" person that is listed as his master, their name in Japanese means "Sorry."
If they're going with a romanized version and it's something like Øsel/Ösel (an island as mentioned earlier) then that's interesting because it could possibly be his dad and that's his name (I'll tell you now that I still don't know his official, decided upon name) and they're intentionally not revealing his dad by name in his bio, possibly for plot reasons.
Either way, this is stuff to keep in mind due to them putting it out there.
Or maybe Grøh's father isn't mentionned yet and we'll get it once he is revealed?

Or MAYBE Grøh doesn't know about his father (brainwashed or else) and Papi is actually trying to bring his son back home?

It's possible. The main thing I know about him and his dad is that Grøh has issues with him.
So that's kind of a vast interpretation, though easy to speculate about.
Maybe his dad abandoned him and Grøh didn't really know him, then comes back into his life or something to that degree after all this time could do it.
Or they just pull a damn Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker with those two. lol
 
I guess his father is in the 'good side' since he has issues with him. I'd like to see the father being an older man. perhaps 70~80 years old. Something similar to Gen from the Street Fighter universe would be great in my personal opinion:

Despite his evil looks, he's actually a good character. An older character with fearsome, devilish looks but good intent would be pretty awesome imo. Can't think of what weapon he might use.
 
what do you mean?
If this person that is Grøh's master that is named Ozuru in Japanese, though not sure if that will be romanized or not, but if so, then possibly something like Øsel/Ösel, is actually also meant to also be his father, that would be kind of interesting since that word in Japanese means sorry.

Keeping in mind that whoever Grøh's father is, what I do know is that he is also playable, offers a new style for the series not meant to replace anyone moveset-wise, and that Grøh has issues with him. Plus something else that I can't get into, but don't worry about that.
So.... IF this Ozuru (at least in Japanese and pronunciation) person that's his master turns out to be his dad, his name being the Japanese word for "sorry" is kind of funny since Grøh has issues with this new character that is his father.

Ozuru means sorry? in japanese?
Cann you provide source?
 
I may have figured out Groh's master. It's Óðr
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Óðr

In japanese, it's オーズ, but オーズル is one of alternative spellings

https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/オーズ
Grøh's best friend being named Curtis stands out like a sore thumb then. lol
Shoutouts to whoever said or wanted a Norse mythology referenced character like Odin tied to Grøh, since Óðr is in a weird spot of being a possibly hypostasis lost in translation and time alternate name for Odin.

Ozuru means sorry? in japanese?
Cann you provide source?
Does a very minimal understanding of the language suffice? XD
Don't take it as an absolute because I'm no native Japanese speaker.
I just recall it being another word for sorry, and also for big stork. lol

If Groh' dad has a saber, I'm happy.
Speaking of saber, wasn't there an interview somewhere or something like that (I'm sure someone could track it down) that stated that Cassandra was meant to be a part of SCV's roster, but with a revised version of Darth Vader's moveset?
I can't for the life of me even remotely imagine her fighting like that.

Great detective work mate - I think you're probably right, and it's definitely an old Norse name - I think you'd say it like "OH-thur", and isn't the "th" sound said like "z" in Japanese - so that would make sense.
It's an archaic name for Freya's (goddess of love) husband.

Are you confirming that Cassie is back with a new style???? NEW LEAKS Kappa

Makes sense, awesome!

Also, verbs in -zuru are an alternative spelling of する, maybe @Vergeben is simply mistaken ^^

Actually, to have a "du" sound in Japanese, you have to use "zu", as "du" does not exist (though they have "da", "de", and "do")

Something tells me that if Cassie did come back with a Vader style, this could be the future version trapped in Astral Chaos. Something tells me she’d have a paper thin disguise. SCI-era Cassandra has no reason to be a fighter, only doing so once Sophitia had children.

Just those hearts need to stay away. Please, no freaking hearts.
 
nope, it will not suffice. it does not mean sorry, or anything in particular in japanese. nor does it mean stork.
Well, I mean, I just looked the name up on google and it seems to be a Japanese surname as well as a male given name that does in fact mean "big stork" so there's that.
And while it's not the best source, I checked on google translate and it did translate to "Sorry", though the romanization was "O zuru" as opposed to just one word.

Thanks, but you shouldn't be so defensive about it when someone even admits they know they don't know it that well.
I never claimed to have any extensive knowledge about it or that I spoke the language fluently. I explicitly said I didn't for that matter.

I did just look into it to see if anything coincides with my shoddy Japanese and Google Translate does apparently say ozuru means sorry.

But you know.... Google Translate and all. lol

Some baby name sites list it meaning baby stork.

That's most likely why it tripped me up like that. Plus not having a great grasp of the language as noted before.

I'm not saying that she is. But she is back from what I've heard and told you guys before.
But I have no idea at the moment if that old idea of theirs will be revisited or not.
I guess keep it in mind?
It sounds like it was intended to express her character and style development by being in Astral Chaos though, which would have been interesting to see happy go lucky Cassandra change that much. Though I suppose they could've kept some of her signature moves and adapted them to the new style.
If someone has the time and the means, they should mod Cassandra to use to Darth Vader moveset on Soul Calibur IV. Just to give us an idea how that weird thing would even look with her. But I just can't mentally envision it without laughing at how stiff and serious that moveset would be for her. lol

inb4 Grøh is Edge Master's son
I'm still in the camp that believes there's a chance he is, and Edge Master is being reintroduced under a new name similar to how Aeon Calcos was, with a new moveset as well like he got too.

1. indeed google translate says ozuru means sorry. but google translate results may be edited, thus unreliable without understanding of the language.
please provide a different source, screenshot of a japanese dictionary, or a sentence, where this word appears in the context of apology

2. japanese surname, yes, you probably mean 大鶴. first off, this would be written as ooduru, or oodzuru, since the second character reads originally tsuru. then, tsuru afaik is a crane.

3. lastly, there is the issue of actual spelling on the website. オーズル. no japanese person would spell big crane/stork in this way. there are several reasons for that which I don't currently have time to get into.

4. can you provide a screenshot of オーズル for a male given name? I'm quite interested in this.
