I’m reading Vagabond and noticed that the samurai who are learning swordsmanship at a dojo will have this hairstyle, so is it just to show that they are students st a dojo?

      Thanks! That’s really interesting, I didn’t expect that. The media probably throws that in cuz it is kinda the stereotypical hairstyle for old school samurai.

      I’ll add that the shaved top of the head helped them stay cool in battle while wearing the aforementioned helmets.

      I have it on PS4 and I’ve been itching to replay it, but I’ve been (foolishly) waiting on a PC release to replay. At this point, I think I’m just gonna go for it and play on PS4 again, cause I don’t think it’s happening any time soon. lol

        I started it a couple years ago, almost finished the first area, stopped, and now I’m replaying it. It’s a great game, I think it’s just best taken slow so it doesn’t feel tedious

      That game was so awesome. I never finished it though because it became quite tedious with taking out the Mongol camps. I really want a PC port though.
