Profile

General:
Gaira is a huge and dumb young monk. He is the grandchild of Nicotine. One day, he and Nicotine got into a huge fight. This caused Gaira to leave his home and venture on his own. During his travels, he witnessed Zankuro killing an entire village and was terrified by the sight. After Zankuro left the scene, Gaira was angered at himself for fearing Zankuro. He decided to go out on a journey to hunt Zankuro. During his search, he found out that Zankuro was killed. He searched for his body and buried it and built him a grave. This grave was named Onizuka. But shortly after, the grave was destroyed. He then sensed that Zankuro's soul was resurrected and sealed once again. Feeling that the one who sealed Zankuro's soul is too dangerous, he heads out to Shimabara to find out who it is.

Comment:
He's one funny looking mo-fo, but this rock solid monk is a cool edition to the Samurai Shodown series... He is a completely original character due to the fact that his beads are his weapon.
