As per the headcanon of these threads, everything in her life got moved back by a couple of years. So she's an orphan who was taken in by the Yamashiros, got into a love triangle with their sons, and attempted to get married while still in high school with Maseo only for Takeo to murder Maseo and his parents on her wedding night.
For added drama, Takeo and Maseo could be identical twins in this version, something that makes Tinier Tatsu not be ready to off Takeo just yet, because she’s also seeing the face of her husband. This also makes Takeo a recurring foe.
It also emphasizes the twin motif in Katana's backstory (the swords, her children).
And for extra, EXTRA drama, a lust crazed Takeo kills everyone on Tatsu's wedding night because he went there with a half wienered plan to replace Maseo during the interesting bits of the night.
It also emphasizes the twin motif in Katana's backstory (the swords, her children).
And for extra, EXTRA drama, a lust crazed Takeo kills everyone on Tatsu's wedding night because he went there with a half wienered plan to replace Maseo during the interesting bits of the night.
Don't forget, it's not just Tatsu that is younger but Maseo and Takeo as well. Takeo isn't some powerful Yakuza in this canon, he's a jumped up errand boy who swiped an antique from his boss and committed a family annihilation.
Yeah, that's why he's making it alive for so long in this version. The og had a certain level of protection from being a high ranking yakuza. This version literally has to rely on his looks to protect him.

Based on earlier threads, his immediate gang was wiped out due to the heat it brought down on them by the cops and other gangsters so the people most immediately poised to hunt him down are out of the picture. That said, my thoughts are that this Takeo is much more of a bottom-feeding thug and that the perception of him, by both himself and Tatsu, is much grander than reality. Also the corrupting nature of the Soultaker is played up, so the more you see him the more you question his grasp on reality and just how much he lost of himself to the Soultaker - raising a lot of concerns about what's happening to Tatsu.

My dirty mind is cooking something about that wedding night.
IIRC, these threads have gone with the idea that Takeo killed Maseo right as they were starting to bang thus leaving Tatsu permanently unsatisfied.

Takeo secretly kills Maseo before he enters the nuptial room, takes his place and tries to get it on with Tatsu, who realizes that’s not her husband.
Or Takeo kills Maseo just when he’s about to consummate with Tatsu, enacts a demented role playing situation where he imitates Maseo’s mannerisms and still tries to get it on with Tatsu.
Maseo wasn't Yakuza. Takeo was the Yakuza member and he killed Maseo with the Soultaker, which is why Maseo was initially in the sword. Tatsu's daughters were killed in a fire started during the altercation but their deaths were unintentional.
That pic gives me an idea for a new set of pulpy villains: a bunch of anachronistic pin-up Amazon girls genetically modified / enhanced / irradiated by the A bomb that haven’t aged a day since the forties and think the war rages on. Basically sexy Captain Americas but Japanese. >we are the four Megami-Kaze, our war carries on and Japan did nothing wrong.
They are in deep denial, they fancy themselves as military but are a four girl gang that’s embarrassing for the government and pretends it doesn’t exist.

But yeah, they were in suspended animation.
They're a quartet of hot chicks who spout off the kind of opinions usually reserved for the most bitter and judgmental of old ladies.
That was the inspiration, yes. Now I'm reworking them as not being in suspended animation at all, but as having been isolated in a small island always believing that the war was still going on, until the present day, when they decide, after eighty plus years, to become more proactive in their efforts.

Maybe they were IJN equivalents to a USO show, stranded with the garrison when American bombings cut off transport and communication. The island quickly went Lord of the Flies as supplies dwindled and they were held captive as prizes. Since they weren't busy fighting they noticed that despite no one having enough food they weren't suffering anywhere near the dehibilitating effects of starvation; more curious as the casualties mounted they seemed to grow stronger despite being reduced to a handful of rice and treebark a day. Finally once the soldiers had exhausted themselves they killed their captors and hunted down the few remaining survivors. As the years passed they noted their lack of aging, their strength and athletic abilities surpassing what they ever thought possible, and now their long decades of imprisonment on a forgotten island have come to an end. Out from the past comes the Megami-Kaze to rule the future.
If we're doing villain ideas I've got one based on Katana's Spring Breakout anthology story.
>Wych Doctor
Crime wizard for hire. If you want pure arcane power she's your go-to. Of course, if you need her then you probably won't notice she's anywhere near as capable as she claims. Competent enough to be a threat, incompetent enough to be highly dangerous. A cut- rate Constintine that will gladly sacrifice everyone else for her, many, frickups.
>Hey boss, didn't the wizard lady say we needed a bunch of seals glued to the corpse to keep the demon under control? >Yeah, why? >Four of them are on the floor. >Is that scotch tape?

Not gonna lie, a yakuza asking Apex out and her not being able to handle it is a great concept.

Tatsu with an elaborate katana tattoo on her back. If you want to go all out, have it also reference the outsiders. A halo, a bat, lightning, Mist to imply Metamorpho.
And an outline of a Zaibatsu piece, some thoughts on the Infinite Empire of Japan idea from a while back, two villains, a supporting cast member, and three villains for Tinier Tatsu.
>What the hell, Kimiyo? Did you pressure Gabrielle into getting drunk? >It was just a highball; excuse me if I thought an American teenager could hold their booze. I'm five in myself and you don't see me having a problem. >You've already drunk dialed your ex-husband, accidentally sent thirst trap pics to your kids' babysitter, and one of your villains just showed up concerned that halfway through your rambling voicemail fishing for a booty call you started making a takeout order for yakisoba then b***hed about your mother. >That's bullshit, I didn't booty call Flying Fox Brother No.7. >I never said which villain.
>Why are you complaining? Tatsu rarely lets me give her head pats or hugs! >Onibi, your bodies are noticeably decaying half the time. >That makes my hugs extra soft and squishy!
>God, can we go now? This humidity is terrible for me, Apex. >You wanted some hand to hand training, did you not, Kitsune? >Yeah but-- >So tough it out! Your foes will not care about the elements! When one's life in on the line, survival is paramount! >Look, if I fix the AC, can we train in the wherehouse, Pexy-chan? >Please take this seriously. >I am!! And you know what's serious?! This fricking heat!

Yuriko Sugimoto: Tatsu's niece that everyone tries to keep in the dark about the reality of her father.
Special Inspector Katsuyoshi Takishita: Tatsu's liaison with the Japanese government; a self-serving bureaucrat who distrusts and dislikes Tatsu and views her more as a tool to be used than an actual hero.
Tanuki: pen name of an underground gonzo "journalist" and complete sleazeball who is surprisingly good at convincing powerful and dangerous women to let him photograph them nude.
Det. Kogoro Nogami: Lead detective whose meteoric rise among police ranks was due to nepotism and connections more than capability. Earnest, sincere, and over his head most of the time he's increasingly relying on local superheroes to deal with crime.

Now I'm telling these son-of-a-bitches that we respect the Japanese of this country, who are honest businessmen. And yeah, this is the land of opportunity for legitimate business, not for death merchants who distribute drugs to our children through schools and on the streets. Now I'm telling these motherfrickers that if they continue killing our children to make their precious millions that they deposit in their secret Swiss bank accounts, counselor, before your last suit even gets off the court clerk's desk, I'll have their stinking bodies in garbage bags and ship them back to Japan for fertilizer. Got it?
That should be the name of Tatsu's Scottish counterpart, altough at first she seems to not like that MASK-WEARIN', FACE-HIDIN', TOOTHPICK-CARRYIN', HUSBAND-MOURNIN', ALIEN-ADOPTIN', GHOST-TALKIN'
A greentext had this universe's Kimiyo be a publicly known villain named Dr. Photonik. I was meaning more a Heather McNamara/Tracy Flick type that could be either a civvie to juxtapose how petty and pointless her goals and actions are or go full psychob***h if you want her to be a villain. Though if the latter have her not be a classmate of Tatsu's.

What’s with the bedroom eyes?
Tatsu needs sekkusu.
instructions unclear; administered sudoku.
Subject now experiencing severe hemorrhaging of the abdominal cavity, please advise.
She realized having sex would solve 50% of her hang-ups.
>Zatanna-san, I need your magic to allow my husband's soul to possess a host body and also transform the host's body into my husband's body.
>Yes, to the first but the best I can do on the second is transform the host into a hot chick. But the hot chick transformation comes with a massive wiener if you're into that sort of thing.
>don't transform the host. Sigh, let's see who would be an adequate candidate
>maybe Bruce?
>Zatanna, no
>Bruce would be okay with-

>*pant pant* sorry, I heard you need a sex host?

Get back to /d/ with your troony shit
Imagine not knowing that Zee has a canon TF fetish.
“Jace-San, I must train you in the sensual arts.”
Weird how Josh Ridley has been trying for a while now to make Tatsu give up on killing.
People trying to make Tatsu stop killing has been a thing since OG Outsiders.
Eminently fertile, she births kids in pairs.
At some point, you just have to change pants.
Or drop them altogether and fight in your panties.
Ready for anything at a moment's notice, Katana keeps a blade hidden between her buttcheeks.
She looks like she belongs on a pillow.
Did this one even marry? She looks young.
As per the headcanon of these threads, everything in her life got moved back by a couple of years. So she's an orphan who was taken in by the Yamashiros, got into a love triangle with their sons, and attempted to get married while still in high school with Maseo only for Takeo to murder Maseo and his parents on her wedding night.
For added drama, Takeo and Maseo could be identical twins in this version, something that makes Tinier Tatsu not be ready to off Takeo just yet, because she’s also seeing the face of her husband. This also makes Takeo a recurring foe.
It also emphasizes the twin motif in Katana's backstory (the swords, her children).
And for extra, EXTRA drama, a lust crazed Takeo kills everyone on Tatsu's wedding night because he went there with a half wienered plan to replace Maseo during the interesting bits of the night.
>half wienered
More like full mast, geddit? (It’s about a penis. Having an erection. Because of sexual excitement)
Don't forget, it's not just Tatsu that is younger but Maseo and Takeo as well. Takeo isn't some powerful Yakuza in this canon, he's a jumped up errand boy who swiped an antique from his boss and committed a family annihilation.
Yeah, that's why he's making it alive for so long in this version. The og had a certain level of protection from being a high ranking yakuza. This version literally has to rely on his looks to protect him.
Based on earlier threads, his immediate gang was wiped out due to the heat it brought down on them by the cops and other gangsters so the people most immediately poised to hunt him down are out of the picture. That said, my thoughts are that this Takeo is much more of a bottom-feeding thug and that the perception of him, by both himself and Tatsu, is much grander than reality. Also the corrupting nature of the Soultaker is played up, so the more you see him the more you question his grasp on reality and just how much he lost of himself to the Soultaker - raising a lot of concerns about what's happening to Tatsu.
My dirty mind is cooking something about that wedding night.
IIRC, these threads have gone with the idea that Takeo killed Maseo right as they were starting to bang thus leaving Tatsu permanently unsatisfied.
Oh yeah, I can work with that.
Takeo secretly kills Maseo before he enters the nuptial room, takes his place and tries to get it on with Tatsu, who realizes that’s not her husband.
Or Takeo kills Maseo just when he’s about to consummate with Tatsu, enacts a demented role playing situation where he imitates Maseo’s mannerisms and still tries to get it on with Tatsu.
Tatsu be like
>I don't recognize that bulge
>She looks young.
It's anime, dude. They all look young.
she will always look young when the core of her design is "conventionally attractive 5'2 asian girl"
Canonically Katana married a Yakuza and gave birth to twin girls before all three of them were murdered in a fire started by her brother-in-law
Also I don't have any fanart of Katana, just have this unrelated men's adventure pulp art instead
Maseo wasn't Yakuza. Takeo was the Yakuza member and he killed Maseo with the Soultaker, which is why Maseo was initially in the sword. Tatsu's daughters were killed in a fire started during the altercation but their deaths were unintentional.
That pic gives me an idea for a new set of pulpy villains: a bunch of anachronistic pin-up Amazon girls genetically modified / enhanced / irradiated by the A bomb that haven’t aged a day since the forties and think the war rages on. Basically sexy Captain Americas but Japanese.
>we are the four Megami-Kaze, our war carries on and Japan did nothing wrong.
Sounds interesting
So did they live through the intervening decades or were they in suspended animation?
They are in deep denial, they fancy themselves as military but are a four girl gang that’s embarrassing for the government and pretends it doesn’t exist.
They're a quartet of hot chicks who spout off the kind of opinions usually reserved for the most bitter and judgmental of old ladies.
But yeah, they were in suspended animation.
Meanwhile, Kitsune:
>cha-ching
Always thinking of the next buck.
They had a penpal in that one japanese soldier stationed in the Philippines that thought ww2 never ended
That was the inspiration, yes. Now I'm reworking them as not being in suspended animation at all, but as having been isolated in a small island always believing that the war was still going on, until the present day, when they decide, after eighty plus years, to become more proactive in their efforts.
Can't wait.
can even twist it as a more nefarious kind of Themyscira, where they are the last "residents" and get the benefits the island bestows like peak physical condition despite their age
Kinda getting Blitzkampf vibes
Maybe they were IJN equivalents to a USO show, stranded with the garrison when American bombings cut off transport and communication. The island quickly went Lord of the Flies as supplies dwindled and they were held captive as prizes. Since they weren't busy fighting they noticed that despite no one having enough food they weren't suffering anywhere near the dehibilitating effects of starvation; more curious as the casualties mounted they seemed to grow stronger despite being reduced to a handful of rice and treebark a day. Finally once the soldiers had exhausted themselves they killed their captors and hunted down the few remaining survivors. As the years passed they noted their lack of aging, their strength and athletic abilities surpassing what they ever thought possible, and now their long decades of imprisonment on a forgotten island have come to an end. Out from the past comes the Megami-Kaze to rule the future.
If we're doing villain ideas I've got one based on Katana's Spring Breakout anthology story.
>Wych Doctor
Crime wizard for hire. If you want pure arcane power she's your go-to. Of course, if you need her then you probably won't notice she's anywhere near as capable as she claims. Competent enough to be a threat, incompetent enough to be highly dangerous. A cut- rate Constintine that will gladly sacrifice everyone else for her, many, frickups.
>Frick Up for a Mage
Oh that sounds hilarious
>Hey boss, didn't the wizard lady say we needed a bunch of seals glued to the corpse to keep the demon under control?
>Yeah, why?
>Four of them are on the floor.
>Is that scotch tape?
Another Yakuza building
>You sure about this?
>Look, we need every edge we can get.
>Why not just hire those ninja monkeys?
>One, no. Two, for the last time we aren't indulging to your fetish.
>Hey! I just think their leader is cute.
>Weirdo.
>Wait......do you smell something?
>What?
>*sniff sniff* Smells like charcoal and some funny meat.
>Goons walk into a room where one of the gang members is burning alive
>What the frick--
>Shit, the sacrifice wasn't supposed to start until that Katana b***h got here.
Not gonna lie, a yakuza asking Apex out and her not being able to handle it is a great concept.
>He had been looking at me weird all day and I was gonna say something but then we were alone and he was all "Would you like to get something to eat" and you know me, Hell yeah I can eat but then he was all "I'll pick you up 7pm on Thursday" and "I know a great wine bar" and I just realized he was asking me out to dinner!
>Ook.
>Not important but yes. What am I supposed to do? I've never been on a date! I don't have time for this! And a criminal at that?
>Ook.
>I am not a hypocrite, Basho-san! I am a ninja, I am death in the shadows and night; he is Yakuza, he shakes down love hotels to install blackmail cameras! This is how you get a Kitsune reputation. What if he's some kinda of freak and suddenly it's all choke me with your tail, Apex, crush my worthless wiener and balls with your chimpanzee strength, Apex, stop showering, get all sweaty, and let me stick my face into your fur, Apex!
>Ook.
>They are legitimate concerns, stop mocking me.
>What have I done?!
>Oolong foiled some Ninja "tradition" again?
>I'm going on a date this Thursday!
>........You almost got me! Didn't think you had any humor in you.
>I don't. And I'm serious. And I've never been on one.
>........Oh my god. Y-you mean it.
>I can see it now! "Use your Mysterious Techniques to jerk me off!!"
>I can't believe I'm saying this but I may have corrupted you. And I feel bad about it.
>Really, now?
>Yeah! Besides most guys want freaky stuff around the 4th time you screw.
>Kitsune tries to get Apex ready for her date
>Cue Hijinks
Megami-Kaze is a fricking cool name.
I'm not surprised that Japan would make her younger, but I'm also not complaining.
The design is meh

Plappable butt.
Tinier Tatsu is not for lewd!
You can't tell me what I can or cannot leer at.
Then I'm doing it wrong.
>.t guy who is going to suffer a horrifying and brutal death because he thought he was the romantic lead
I've heard of animating on 3s, but is this animated on the fricking 5s?
Looks like it’s a wonky gif.
I would advise not getting killed by her
>take off your pants, I want to be a mom again
Her modern stuff is lame. Get her back to being Halo's adoptive mom and Bruce's aggressive tiny murder friend. Don't put her in the Squad.
President of DC gives you a chance to write Katana solo series

Extensive stylized nudity and tasteful violence.
>gave birth to twins
>still has a chest that flat
She's Japanese.
Naruto looking ass
Cute and hot.
Tinier Tatsu will never help you with your math homework then save you from death by killing your assailants.
>my life can’t be that of a widow still attending high school!
>Her name is Katana
>She has my back
She can't wear a choker and give that look, it's too lewd!
I’ll accept it.
She's not being lewd, she's trying to kill you. Your boner is your problem.
Any drawing suggestions?
Tatsu with an elaborate katana tattoo on her back. If you want to go all out, have it also reference the outsiders. A halo, a bat, lightning, Mist to imply Metamorpho.
Looker a shit
Tinier Tatsu being intense and sexy.
I'm gonna go with
, chief.
let me try and give some other ocs some art
how about Dandy man doing his song and dance on Kitsune? It working a little too well on the girl, having so much trouble finding companionship
are you our resident drawfriend? I was curious on the kimono request.
Tastu stabbing Wolverine. And Logan going "Lasted a week in Japan til I got sliced. Must've done something right"
Tinier Tatsu having her already disintegrating pants completely evaporate, revealing her pantsu.
Draw her pregnant with twins (which she canonically has had)
Use this for body
Goddamn! That ain't real.
Show her being motherly to Halo.
As Looker watches.
Tatsu drinking a glass of lemonade to battle the heat
>Had started a Kimiyo/Tatsu/Halo thing
>Other writing project I took to get me to write more is also kicking my ass
I will deliver one day, friends.
If it makes you feel better I've been stuck on an Axana piece since May.
We'll get there brother.
And an outline of a Zaibatsu piece, some thoughts on the Infinite Empire of Japan idea from a while back, two villains, a supporting cast member, and three villains for Tinier Tatsu.
How drunk is Kimiyo to do this?
Light buzz after also handing Halo her first wienertail
Sounds like someone needs correction
Naughty
>What the hell, Kimiyo? Did you pressure Gabrielle into getting drunk?
>It was just a highball; excuse me if I thought an American teenager could hold their booze. I'm five in myself and you don't see me having a problem.
>You've already drunk dialed your ex-husband, accidentally sent thirst trap pics to your kids' babysitter, and one of your villains just showed up concerned that halfway through your rambling voicemail fishing for a booty call you started making a takeout order for yakisoba then b***hed about your mother.
>That's bullshit, I didn't booty call Flying Fox Brother No.7.
>I never said which villain.
I do like how we've made Kimiyo kind of a train wreck but still very capable. Kinda of fitting where she's from.
You guys can do it!!
Thanks for the suggestions, something is currently slowing me down, but I’ll get to it as soon as I can. Here’s a tinier Tatsu meanwhile.
I want to pat her.
>loses ha- no, actually Tinier Tatsu lets you pat her because she's affection starved.
>Why are you complaining? Tatsu rarely lets me give her head pats or hugs!
>Onibi, your bodies are noticeably decaying half the time.
>That makes my hugs extra soft and squishy!
teeny weeny tatsu
What do you think of this redesign of Katana from Beware the Batman?
I like it. My only suggestion would be to remove the stripes on the red parts. They make the design too busy.
>God, can we go now? This humidity is terrible for me, Apex.
>You wanted some hand to hand training, did you not, Kitsune?
>Yeah but--
>So tough it out! Your foes will not care about the elements! When one's life in on the line, survival is paramount!
>Look, if I fix the AC, can we train in the wherehouse, Pexy-chan?
>Please take this seriously.
>I am!! And you know what's serious?! This fricking heat!
Katana is for Yakuza gangbangs

Ryoma: Scarred and grizzled Yakuza who has survived dozens of encounters with Katana. Actually turned over a new leaf and became a law-abiding citizen after his first run-in and near death experience but has the consistent misfortune of finding himself employed at or patronizing Yakuza front companies whenever Tatsu attacks which has given him the reputation as the toughest Yakuza in all of Japan.
The next few haven't been named yet.
Psychic twins; one was killed by Katana and inhabits the sword but their psychic connection remains so they act as go-betweens for the trapped souls and the real world.

The following are supporting cast rather than villains.

One tale is that he kicked another strong fighter out of a high rise in Florida. They say after he beat his father to be the undisputed master of his style, he threw him off a cliff! But what is true us that he is strong and does seek new challengers to sharpen his fangs. Master of the Eastern Mystery of Ki? Just that good? But what is true is that he's always trying to grow. And what better way to sharpen them than against an deadly samurai?
Shuraba: Before she was thrown into a world of sordid violence, Shuraba was a renowned surgeon, able to perform the most complicated operations. Her fame also reached the criminal underworld, where she became the doctor for a powerful criminal family to repay her father's gambling debts and save her own skin. Essential to the Kitahama clan and its elderly oyabun, she becomes progressively corrupt until ending up de facto leader and, when control through intimidation is not enough, she imitates a certain samurai lady, dons a full face mask and a katana to strike with surgical precision at rival clans.
The Final Girls: trio of bottom feeding con artists posing as high end personal security using their history as gun molls who have had run-ins with Katana to lend them legitimacy
and why not give a thread question: What's someone you think deserves a bit more love? What would you think is a good stroy idea for them? Would you have them interact with other ocs or just keep it to them solo or solely interacting with KAtana

I'm ashamed, I tell you, ASHAMED!
I'll update my document, thanks
How shameful!
that's something we need, a Katana brand "SHAMEFUR DISPRAY"
Agreed
>what's someone you think deserves a bit more love?
Apex and the paw clan is such a cool concept it should be its own series.
>Gotta admit, this trip out here was a good call. Quiet place, this Japan.
>Yeah. We got some deals goin', the Bosses back in Gotham will be happy and maybe we'll get some extra Fazoles our way. Now to one of these Obseens.
>That's "Onsen", ya mook.
>That's what I said, ya sleaze. I'm cultured!
>Sure, ya are. Anyways, here we are.
>The gangsters open the Onsen doors
>What they see is Oolong and her daughters taking out a group of Yakuza. Then a gorilla barged in the room. Also dressed like a Ninja. And fighting the old lady Ninja.
>The are doors closed back.
>......Well I think our time is up, better catch that flight!
Would Tatsu and Frank Castle hit it off?
>War Journal Entry: BTO-1974
>I make a stop in Japan. I got wind of a potential alliance of East & West Mob scum and I figured I could see if I could added my "opinion" about it.
>Besides, Micro said Japan is lovely around this time of year.
>.....I tail a couple of hoods, mid level guys of the Forellli Familes. They were going to this Onsen, to get some R & R before getting back to states.
>Too bad their vacation was going to be permanent.
>But the damnest thing happened. They went in....then went right back out. All hell broke lose afterwards.
>I lose the mugs, but I ended up getting caught up in a Turf War between the local Yakuza and two groups of Ninja. And one of them had primates for members.
>Isn't this absurd shit, Spider-Man's deal?
They share a mutual dislike of Wolverine.
I mean, who doesn't?
>The constant smell of cheap cigars is the worst.
>Did you know he goes around telling people he doesn't smoke anymore? But it's the only thing covering up the BO, I think he showers once a month.
>He thinks Febreeze counts as washing clothes.
>He's got the DTs, even with his healing factor.

Meanwhile, in a small bookstore deep in the back alleys of a fictional Japanese city, Tatsu Yamashiro feels like she's missing out on something but can't put her finger on what.
Tatsu Nipples
breasts Yamashiro!
I'm curious but how would a Batman X Katana looks like? Both are ninja-types anyway
There is a new booru that is accessible to all, not just the admins.
So art-friendo if you still have some laying around, put it in!

Forgot to post it kek
Nice
Sexy Katana. And Tatsu pretty good too.
what's the origin of Katana's sword?
Katana means japanese sword
You motherfricker, I'll see you in hell!! Leave me alone! Get a job!
Now I'm telling these son-of-a-bitches that we respect the Japanese of this country, who are honest businessmen. And yeah, this is the land of opportunity for legitimate business, not for death merchants who distribute drugs to our children through schools and on the streets. Now I'm telling these motherfrickers that if they continue killing our children to make their precious millions that they deposit in their secret Swiss bank accounts, counselor, before your last suit even gets off the court clerk's desk, I'll have their stinking bodies in garbage bags and ship them back to Japan for fertilizer. Got it?
>Tatsu nods sagely
>Why'd you go under?
>I'm a undercover cop.
Claymore means scottish sword.
That should be the name of Tatsu's Scottish counterpart, altough at first she seems to not like that MASK-WEARIN', FACE-HIDIN', TOOTHPICK-CARRYIN', HUSBAND-MOURNIN', ALIEN-ADOPTIN', GHOST-TALKIN'
Ha
>Tatsu, no. These are Halo's parents
Love how Ryo looks
Tinier Tatsu pantsu.
Nope
Boyshorts mostly. Even she finds her counterpart's bulk pack prefences to be a little offputting.
She's powered by femcel rage.
And a need to finish her science project
In a desperate attempt to save themselves, the criminals of Japan band together and attempt to get Tinier Tatsu laid.
And destroy her science homework.
Kek
Tinier Tatsu needs an overacheiving, alpha Stacy, high school enemy.
An alternative Kimiyo?
A greentext had this universe's Kimiyo be a publicly known villain named Dr. Photonik. I was meaning more a Heather McNamara/Tracy Flick type that could be either a civvie to juxtapose how petty and pointless her goals and actions are or go full psychob***h if you want her to be a villain. Though if the latter have her not be a classmate of Tatsu's.
Ah, gotcha
Very nice.
Abandoned Wherehouse at the Port
>Aw, hell it's her!!
>I see your master, Wang-Yu, didn't heed my warning.
>BLOW THE b***h AWAY!!
>Dammit, where's the help?
>Tatsu starts taking down Triad members, some with more....finality.
>She grabs one by the collar.
>Now, where's this shipment is going?! TALK.
>Okay, okay.....but how do you say.....oh! One needs to be cool!
>Wha--*Tatsu is just flung into the bay by large figure*
>"One needs to be cool"? Seriously?
>Bah, American Humor isn't that good anyway.
>Maybe but "Cool Off" was right there. Whatever, you pay for tye muscle not the jokes.
One thing I love about these greentexts and pastes is that they're not afraid to rough up Tatsu or have her get the short end of the stick.
Tatsu is for Shiva
