    • When attacking a castle:
"Let's do this before I fall asleep."
  • When defending a castle:
"Your luck has just run out."
  • During battle:
"Hey, <Pokémon's name>, I've been thinking. The thing about battles is... They'd be a lot better if you could win them in your sleep, don't you think?"
  • When ordering to attack:
"Right then! Let's wrap this up quickly, shall we?"
  • Upon forming a Link:
"Yup! I formed a link! C'mon, <Pokémon's name>—let's go!"
  • Upon finding a Perfect Link:
"Pikachu/Raichu... There's something about you that's a little bit different from other Pokémon I've met. D'ya get me? I feel as though I'd be way more energetic if you were around, Pikachu/Raichu! Probably. Anyway, let's be friends!"
  • When Pikachu evolves when Hanbei is at Rank 2:
"Now I sense an even greater power than we had before, Raichu. You feel it too, right? Let's stay friends, Raichu!"
  • When using an item:
"Use my <item>!"
  • When using his Warrior Skill:
"Fact is, I'm a genius!"

"Aw, Kanbei... You're always such a downer..."
  • At the end of Happily Ever After:
"Lord Hideyoshi... Isn't that...?"
  • At the start of The Reluctant Genius:
"Eh? Me?"
"Oh, my lord... Can't you just let me sleep? I really can't be bothered with this, Kanbei. Let's get it over with as soon as possible..."
"Hehe. Didn't you hear him, Kanbei? I'm the Warlord of this kingdom now. He should be the one who watches his mouth in front of me!"
  • At the end of The Reluctant Genius:
"It was nothing. That's just the way I—(cough) (cough cough cough)..."
"No. It's nothing. Just something in my throat."
"Don't make that face, Kanbei. You should be happy for me."
"You're not wrong! And your kids will probably look like that as well, Kanbei!"
  • At the start of The Visionary's Quest:
"To be honest, being a Warlord is such a pain. Why don't you do it, Kanbei? In fact, I'm older than you, so it's my decision! From now on, you're the Warlord around here!"
"Hm? Yeah, of course. It's all yours, Kanbei. So, what are your orders, Lord Kanbei?"
"Oh! Aiming a little high, aren't we? All right, let's do this!"
  • At the end of The Visionary's Quest:
"Three cheers for Lord Kanbei! You did it, my lord. Looks like we work well together, eh? Two geniuses are pretty tough to stop."
"Hey, now... I don't want to talk about that. I just wanted to see what you were really capable of, Lord Kanbei! I wanted to see you...smile!"
"What? Come on, man! There are times when it's all right to smile, you know! Times like this!"
"You're just way too uptight, Lord Kanbei! But I guess you're not going to change. Okay, what's our next mission...?"

Profile

A genius with truly astonishing brainpower and a confidence that doesn't quite fit his appearance, his dream is to spend every day sleeping.

Historical origin

Hanbei is based on the real-life Takenaka Shigeharu of Japanese history, who was also known by the name "Hanbei" (半兵衛). He was an expert tactician who successfully executed an uprising against the Saitō clan. Toyotomi Hideyoshi was so impressed by Shigeharu's strategy, he invited him to join his army as a strategist.

Trivia

  • Hanbei has the lowest Power of any warlord in both of his ranks.
