🍜Samurai Pirates, Stabby Sumo Wrestlers, and Punchable Oni

Are the consequences of Jiuyemon's actions.

We all make mistakes. Too many of the samurai Jiuyemon's mistakes involved killing people with a sword while drunk, though. While the heat dies down, he needs to start a new life in exile. As a toothpaste salesman.

Famous for being cute and giving boat rides in Animal Crossing! Don't ask about what he used to get up to before he was a kawaii manga star, though! It definitely doesn't involve eating humans and having multiple anuses!
