[@benpepin7872]

Fun fact about Genjuro that no one wanted: The "Artwork" are Hanafuda cards, a two-player japanese card game that you CAN sort of gamble at. Specifically the "Five Lights", the highest-scoring hand you can make in the game. So basically his supers are Japanese "Royal Flushes".

Reminder that Nintendo started off as a company that made Hanafuda cards. Though I believe they still do to this day, but those are now more of a novelty than a major product.
