I wonder what it would be like to marry 

Sayo Mutou 

Sayo Mutou 

Alias: Magdaria (Japanese derivation of Mother Mary)

Looks: She's very close to the classical beauties in anime, with a frail frame and sweet face. Beautiful green eyes and long, wavy brown hair. Her fashion sense is pretty difficult to get used to, but don't worry, I've seen tackier. Note that she wasn't really so cute when a child, IMHO, so she just filled out recently.

Smarts: Good. She's fairly literate and knows a lot about theology and child raising so she takes charge of the Christian kids.

Personality: Mostly pious, she strongly believes in no violence, but in a "corrupted" way, though that's explainable due to her and her brother's raise (you *were* going to kill Sano, weren't you? -_-). Sayo is hard and even arrogant at points, to the ones opposing her beliefs, explaining why she was in a moment willing to shoot Sano. Once she gets to know you better, softer spots will come to surface.

Cooking - Home Economics: Possibly knows the basic, but not much more.

Fighting skills: Her extremely frail health doesn't let Sayo do many things (remember she's tisic). However, she had a gun to defend herself, and you know she was WILLING to use it.

Special abilities: Member of the "Damsel in Distress S.A" *lol*. Able to make Sanosuke forget for two-three days about Megumi, apparently. Duh!, the S&M fans say.

Competition: Sanosuke seemed quite protective of Sayo as she cured his wounds twice in the Shimabara arc, but as this was an only-anime saga, I'm not sure it would influence that much. Other suitor would be her bodyguard Shouzo (WAAAIII!! I WANT A BOYFRIEND LIKE HIM!! *heartshaped eyes*) who promised that he'd do everything to make her and Shougo happy, so he'd be thrilled if Sayo has found love, but dangerous to anyone who hurts her.

In-Laws: Her parents were killed in the Christians' slaughter in Shimabara while Japan was still a closed country. Her uncle Hyoue also died, so the only one to rely would be her older brother Shougo, aka Amakusa. Shougo would NEVER accept a Non-Christian man marrying his beloved sister, so getting yourself in the ways of Jesus would be the first step to follow. Once you do, Shougo would keep also his eyes on you both so you treat her right. Also, Sayo looks at the children at the colony as her brothers and sisters, so they'll be around being themselves quite in a while and it shouldn't be difficult to get used to it.

Finances: As her brother's a Christian minister and a very talented doctor, Sayo has acquired teaching and medical knowledge and she'll use it to teach others and help you with money.

Sex: One thing for sure is that she'll save herself for marriage. Remember also her sickly nature, so you better start with cuddle and caresses to make her feel better.

Overall: Not the worst choice. Sano-Megumi fans will definitely thank you for taking their biggest obstacle away, and while Shougo and Shouzo aren't suspecting that you may be an heretic or something, you'll live with her a short, but nice married life.
