I have a feeling Nataku is going to kill Atsumori.

Atsumori: “Why do I have this sudden sharp pain in my back?”

A BOLD CLAIM!

Atsumori’s looking tired. Probably has a lot of tension built up between the shoulder blades.
Maybe Nataku can loosen that up for him while he’s back there.

Atsumori thoughts: Im gonna Take a nice hot bath put on some shamisen and open up a good bottle of mustache oil and-ARGH!!!

Nataku is known for many things, but giving back rubs isn’t his specialty.
charles81
Well he generally rubs your back through your belly.
Just look at all the tension flowing out of Ken’s back from the tummy massage Nataku’s foot is giving him. Why, he’s completely relaxed in the next panel: http://nn4b.com/comic/471

Previous page shows the effect even better 😉
I think I’m beginning to understand the eastern healing techniques… acupuncture, seppuku, and so on…
Silly Nataku, thinking that just because Atsu’s moustache is on the opposite side, it can’t pierce his soul.

I predict that the climax of this storyline will be the boss fight Atsumori’s moustache vs. Nataku’s eyebrows. It will be epic, and no mercy will be given.
“Wait. Did I just hear a “doom” sound effect behind me? That can’t be good.”

“I probably just misheard a ‘zoom’ sound effect, no big.”

I felt a great disturbance in the Tao, as if millions of moustaches suddenly cried out in terror, and were suddenly silenced.

What if Atsumori is a Jedi and Lord Hirotomo is Palpatine?

I don’t think anyone here is approaching Sheev’s level of evil. I mean Hirotomo hasn’t even made a Murder Ball.

But one thing is certain. Honou-ko is y̶o̶u̶r̶ ̶f̶a̶t̶h̶e̶r̶ Anakin!
Not Real
Natal seems like the sort of guy who would pull a “I find your lack of faith disturbing”

“You know, perfectly legitimate tactics like attacking our neighbors without warning and murdering our own generals.”
“Wait, you haven’t killed any- GAH!”

Let’s not jump that gun just yet!

Ejiro: Look Atsumori its all in this book I wrote called “Dreams of my Father the Daimyo”
http://www.nn4b.com suburban_samurai
“The Art of the Daimyo”, written by Hirotomo, ghost written by Nataku.

perpetually angry dude looks like he’s leaning against the tent wall… the canvas walls of this tent are strong.
Maybe it’s just me, but every time I look at the first panel I have to do a double take because at first glance it appears that Eijiro is like some god or angel floating in a beam of light.
Xinef
I think it’s mostly his shadow, because it’s shape isn’t exactly correct.
