OK, guys, you know how this works. Vote on what Kihachi should do based on his actions in the last chapter. IT's WHAT YOU THINK HE WOULD DO, not what you want him to do....
I really tred to combine all the options into these basic five.
OKay, now your turn to vote.

I went with the father option.
There is really nothing in the village that would keep him there. He can tell the gambler that he will serve after he visits his fathers deathbed.
He could even send a messenger to the gambler if he really needs to repay his debt.
This what I think Kihachi would do. I wanted him to start a pawnshop.

| I voted he should go in search of his father as well, and I wouldn't be surprised if Kihachi had completely forgotten about the gambler. As much fun as becoming a bounty hunter would be, I'm not so sure it's the right choice for our boy. He seems more level headed than that.

I voted for the father as well. This character seems filled with duty and responsibility, and motivated by family ties.

Well, seems the vote is one sided. I really thought there would be some votes for the vigilante thing... I might still have him kill any bandit he sees in anger, and have him try to control himself.

Just a thought, if his father is so rich, as the messenger claimed him to be, why doesn't Kihachi just visit his father and ask for the money? Anyways I would have to go with the others and choose the choice. But I still like my idea of hiring an assassain and killing the gambler, but it doesn't really match Kihachi's personality.

You don't understand...the journey to his father could take quite a looong time, especially without anybody to guide him, and his only link to his father was the samurai, who is now dead.....

If I feel the need to smack one of my children (which I must say is thankfully not very often) then I prefer to use the back of a hairbrush. Very effective........ Mwha-ha-ha-ha

The tines, the back, or the handle? Maybe all three depending on the swing?

the hairbrush stings, and it can get expensive. when i was in the third grade my mom broke three hairbrushes a week on my butt. i gotta say, the most effectivewas the wooden spatula. *shudders*
i think the change is weird. (good but hard to get used to) my orange writing doesn't show up anymore, i had to change my colours. at least i haven't been using it for long.
