Hokutomaru! He's mah best char in Garou: MOTW (even though I like Freeman better; it's an arcade/personal thing, y'know? <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0"> ) and I think I'll have his music stuck in my head forever and ever...No I dun think he's da son of Andy and Mai buuuuuut...he's used to the Shiranui-ryuu ninja arts and Andy's his sensei. So who knows?

From what I know, Hokutomaru is a student of the Shiranui ninja arts and Andy is his master. That's why he has Andy's HCF K move. I don't think he's their child since in the MOTW game, he refers Mai to as his big sister (if I'm not mistaken).

Can anyone confirm this story? It's Mai's relationship with Shiranui Gen-an from Samurai Shodown.

Someone told me that Gen-an was a champion Samurai/Ninja but was cursed by Amakusa. Gen-an was transformed into a demon and could never father a human-child. When Amakusa's Ambrosia Orb was destroyed, Gen-an remained a demon but was finally able to have a human child. That child is Mai's great-ancestor.

Interesting story. Anyone else heard of this?

Right on ,Jubei!Once upon a time i had a Ga-
me boy with Samurai Shodown...In the instruction booklet there was a cute storry
about Gen-An and the curse...But the story was different..It was about Gen-an who wants
to be the ultimate and released the evil spirits.He hoped that they will grant his wish but they laughed at him and transformed
him into ugly monster,after that they flew to
Amakusa...
Well the story was cool and deep I was 14 y.
old then but...
