Yahiko Myoujin
Alias:
Yahiko-chan (but don't tell him that).
Looks:
Cute-looking 10-year-old boy with coppery skin,
reddish eyes and spiky black hair. Quite short but
give him time; he may grow up in a very attractive
youth as demonstrated in the end of the manga.
Smarts:
Weeeell... *scratches head* Street-smart as we see
that he was a little street mugger until Kaoru and
Kenshin rescued him. Other than that, he's not dim,
just inexperienced.
Personality:
A disaster waiting to happen. Though with a heart of
pure gold, he's cocky, stubborn, rebel,
disrespectful, etc. And he's beaten the crap outta
him quite frequently for that, specially by Kaoru.
Cooking:
May learn if someone says it's a part of the
kenjutsu training. Expect a huge food bill. In the
home economics, has (forcefully) learned to keep a
Dojo clean. Kaoru and Watsuki-sensei say so.
Fighting
skills:
With great potential. He uses his bokken by the
rules of Kamiya Kasshin ryuu, but recently has
learned to adapt some Hiten Mitsurugi moves to them,
at least the Ryusuisen. Surprise factor is on him,
but even then, it's quite easy to many people (like
Kaoru, Sano, Misao), to punt him into orbit. Has
also the hilarious technique of head-chewing against
Sanosuke.
Special
abilities:
To piss anyone with female chromosomes around,
except Tsubame. Quicklearner, as stated above.
Competition:
Sanjou Tsubame, w/o any doubt. She's one of the
full-time waitresses at Akabeko and Yahiko's current
hit-on since he saved her from her evil former
"master" and Tae adopted her. Tsubame-chan
herself is so lovely that it won't be easy to pass
through her. Even if you do, expect Yahiko to be the
very first one to jump on her aid if she needs it.
In-Laws:
Dead, and he was 'adopted' by a gang and later by
Kenshin and Kaoru, playing a sort of "little
brother" role. Remember he's the one who gave
the Kenshin-gumi its name. They won't be a challenge
unless you're no good to him.
Finances:
May help Kaoru and Kenshin to take over the dojo, so
potential is there. No really good now as he's still
a little boy, but has time to start a good education
that leads him to a productive career for himself,
too.
Sex:
ARE YOU NUTS? He's not even legal still! When he
grows up, he may be fiery and eager to please as
well.
Overall:
The wait may be too long for some. Yahiko-chan still
has way to grow, but your life with him once he does
and you're patient enough (IF you are), won't be
dull at all. A high reward if you're disposed.
