Welcome to the Sengoku Period in Japan where life is bad and there is violence EVERYWHERE!!! Bandits raid farming villages, samurai wandering without masters, and drunk rascals to push ALL the buttons. We recruit six samurai and one "in between" to defend the village from bandit raids. We have Kanbei the Obi-Wan, Katsushiro the Luke, Gorobei the rotund, Heihachi the joker, Shichiroji the lieutenant, Kyuzo the stone-faced, and Kikuchiyo the rabid dog who follows them around for miles and miles. Basically, he's Inosuke from Demon Slayers and therefore an automatic favorite in Erin's eyes. There's also girls disguised as boys that still look like girls, samurai frolicking in flowers, and Kikuchiyo STILL being a rabid dog!
