To everyone who doesn't know: when he bows to Little Mac during the fight, he's not being disrespectful because you're supposed to keep your eyes on your opponent during the fight, especially when you're within striking distance.

What people got from Piston Hondo's TD intro: "He has trained hard and poured his heart and soul into boxing" What I got from it: "Piston Hondo can eat half his bodyweight in sushi"

[@FizzyPopVevo]

It is sorta necessary, in martial arts and in any energy-consuming sport you need to eat as much as you can since you release a ton of energy therefore you need to replenish that energy by eating. Edit: plus, Honda fighting style uses up a LOT of calories, you can't rush for hours on end with little energy at hand.

Wii Hondo bows and formally introduces himself. "Well, this this fighter seems like a nice guy." Bows DURING THE MATCH! "A little TOO nice!" I understand that bowing while looking is okay if a foe is within striking distance, otherwise it is a BIG no-no. But this is in the middle of a match! For that matter, the American Brox may not know about the customs... He even gets a star for striking that bow.

[@lecapitaineisonyoutoob]

It's too bad that nobody's picking up on his lose quote: "Munen..." Literally, it means "[I have] no regrets," but in Japanese period fiction, it's a stereotypical death phrase said by warrior characters. The pronoun he uses to refer to himself is also "sessha" which is associated with old-timey samurai. Hondo's voice performance and visual design are also strongly based on old-school Japanese protags. His face in the remake is even a dead ringer for 1970s actor Hiroshi Fujioka, who's probably the manliest living thing in Japan as of right now. (But that's only because Tatsuya Nakadai humbly bowed out and Toshiro Mifune is no longer with us.)
