Well, I think he has in Gen's story (book 7); although Gen never officially served a lord, his father did and he teached his son. After his father's death, Gen took on his father's mon, but since that clan was "dispersed", he was technically masterless and started bounty hunting right awa...

I probably would be interested in reading it, I don't know if I would be enough to actually buy it. I've only heard the outline of the story, but it's relation to USagi intrigues me. One thing in particular interests me: How similar to Nilson to Usagi in terms of story? I heard Nilson is like this s...

Oh hey... this may be the wrong thread to post this but... was Gen ever a samaurai? As in, actually serve a lord? I'm aware he learned the sword from his father and never went to any formal school, but he has some kind of clan crest on his clothes, and shortly after Usagi tells Gen his story, Gen sa...

We've seen hints of mutual attraction, but Usagi looks attracted anytime anyone kisses him :) True. I imagine that holds for a lot of people. If anything, I think this just opens up the potential to further explore hers and Usagi's feelings for one another. It's the classic romantic story in which ...

We should have a separate board for fan fiction. It's too hard to tell what here is fan art and what is fan fiction.

I have another question. Why did Gen never redo his "ceramic horn" trick? It proved to be awfully useful at the time, you think he'd redo it. Granted, I imagine he'd get sick of always breaking his horn apart, but it's still useful. (I'm aware, of course, that the short answer is that it w...

I think that's in Book I, actually. Gen invites himself over to Usagi's table and enlists his help in taking down a one-eyed bandit and his brother. They do it, but Gen leaves Usagi with the bill for the inn. Then later, Gen enlists his help to steal a special sword, but tricks Usagi into doing all ...

Mariko and Usagi go back the longest, but it's quite clear that they both hold the code of honor far too high to dishonor her marriage with Kenichi. After so much time, I doubt they'll get back together. Besides, Kenichi is really a pretty decent guy... I don't think that's going anywhere. Kitsune a...
