[[File:zankuro 8596.jpg|frame]]
Line 417 ⟶ 421:

=== Hazuki Kazama ===
[[File:kazama hazuki 8431.png|frame]]
The younger sister of Kazuki and Sougetsu, and a member of the Kazama ninjas. She seems to be a kind, sweet person without much fighting abilities; instead, she has great spiritual powers that let her use powerful sealing techniques. Unfortunately, Amakusa realizes the last detail ''fast'' and takes a hold of Hazuki for his own purposes, which kicks off the subplot with Kazuki running off to save her and Sougetsu having to stop and kill him...
{{tropelist|Tropes exhibited by this character include:}}
----
Tropes associated with Hazuki:
* [[Barrier Maiden]]: Unlike her brothers, she doesn't seem to have any fighting skills. On the other hand, she ''is'' the one who "tamed" and then sealed Suija and Enja in their swords.
* [[Curtains Match the Window]]: Has green hair and [[Green Eyes]].

=== Yorozu Sankuro ===
[[File:sankuro 807.jpg|frame]]
A lowly thug who's looking for an easy way to make very quick, and BIG''big'' bucks. He is a gang leader, consisting of him, Goshichi, Fuyo and Ippachi, all three appear to assist him in attacks, in fact, while he has Genjuro's animations, his moves includes calling those three, eat some sushi, or shoot a revolver once. And BOY''boy'' is he very annoying to fight against. In ''Samurai Shodown V'', he hired Genjuro to kill Gaoh so he can take over. However, eventually his cover was blown, but Genjuro almost spared him due to his disinterest on slicing up a woman. Ungrateful as he is, Sankuro tried shooting him down, but Genjuro intercepted, and then Sankuro was never seen again. Maybe he died.
{{tropelist|Tropes exhibited by this character include:}}
* [[Dirty Coward]]
Line 743 ⟶ 753:

* [[Ms. Fanservice]]: Seriously, she has quite literally ''no purpose whatsoever'' besides sexing up the game. Even her seiyuu specializes in hentai!
* [[Ninja Maid]]
* [[No Fourth Wall]]: This woman won't let something like that keep her from serving you.
