Hanma Yagyu (柳生磐馬) is a video game character in the Samurai Shodown series.
[edit] History
Hanma is an expert inventor of the Yagyu clan. One day, he was ordered by his surperiors to observe a rival clan. To do this, he slipped into the clan under the guise of a body guard for the princess. The princess instantly found Hanma to be an enjoyable character because of his smiling face and appointed him as her personal bodyguard. However, one day, the father of the princess told Hanma to go investigate the mysterious puppeteer.
[edit] Karakuri Hanma
Shortly before he left, he created a robot version of himself, called Karakuri Hanma to ensure the safety of the princess. However, in his overzealousness, he had made a mistake in the programming, causing it to attack her. Realizing what occurred, he was forced to destroy his creation and come to her rescue.
[edit] Trivia
- Whilst building an experiment as a child, it exploded in his face. This is why his face is frozen into a smile.
