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. Totoyomi Hideyoshi was so impressed by Shigeharu's strategy, he invited him to join his army as a strategist.
