How 'bout King Arthur? Maybe someone from Norse history, like Leif Ericsson or Egill Skallagrimsson (accouts paint him as one of the most feared warriors of his day, dispatching even the fearsome berserkers with ease). If the wizards can pull the TMNT to Usagi's time, why not an actual historic figure? (Egill was around 990 A.D.). I'd personally like to see how Usagi reacts to a Norse warrior, who attacks with the fury of a bear, and the technique of a seasoned chess player.

I've been watching "Heroes" lately, and was thinking it would be cool to have Usagi meet someone based off of Hiro Nakamura. Like maybe Usagi meets a guy in funny clothing who claims he comes from the future, but Usagi dismisses him as a crazy person.

Someone based off of Rumiko Takahashi's Lum would be funny too. She could be a crazy oni princess who's madly in love with Gen.

Hattori Hanzo from "Path of the Assassin."

I imagine an animal small and thin to fit the Ninja role. For what, I can't put my finger on it at the moment.

Hello UY Fans,

This is an old thread but I would like to see a character based on the dog Hachiko told in UY someday. This Christmas we got two books that inspired this wish.

First, I got a the graphic novel Laika by Nick Abadzis (http://www.firstsecondbooks.com/laika.html). It was beautiful storytelling.

My daughter got a book called Hachiko Waits by Lesléa Newman and Machiyo Kodaira (http://www.lesleakids.com/hachiko.html) about the famous dog in Japan who waited at train station every day for his owner 10 year after his death. Hachiko is Japan's national symbol for loyalty.

Maybe Spot was crafted after Hachiko?

If not, I would like to see some story based around Hachiko. I know Hachiko happens way out of the time frame of UY but I would love to see Mr. Sakai's take on the story.

Peace, maka
