TN1: Yukimura was born on a leap year and therefore celebrates his birthday every four years. No matter he looks so young ;p
*TN2: In Japan, the 3 sizes--bust, waist, and hip measurements--is considered an important physical data most often revealed of Japanese female idols (don't get me started on the annoyance of this sexist as well as intrusive practice of revealing this private information for the public demand). Although I find it amusing that Yukimura is the only male character whose 3 sizes were revealed in the fanbook. So Yukimura like. ^_^;
Some key Yukimura moments:
Yukimura facing Jyuukamen aka Sanada Nobuyuki as 'Yukino' in the Tokugawa tournament.
Yukimura in his younger days. (far right, Mizuki)
A young Yukimura coming to terms with his responsibility in the Sanada Clan.
The long awaited battle against Kyo.
Yukimura using the Sekireigan technique provided by Anri (Yuan's oldest brother).
Yukimura poising to make the proper payment to Akari for receiving the healing treatment. *insert a Marvin Gaye song here*
~OMAKE~
Inquiries written to Yukimura from SDK fans.
Q: In the tournament, it looks as though you cut your hair short. So why does it look like it grew back long by the end of the battle?
A: Oh did it look like I cut it? In actuality, I styled my hair in a way that made it looks short. However, during the course of my battle with my big brother, the hair style fell apart. I guess I need to study more on the ways of female hair maintenance. *laughs*
Q:It seems like you talk to your fellow Jyuuyuushi without speaking. How do you do that?
A: The method of communicating within the Sanda Jyuuyushi group is a secret method that no one knows of. A normal person (outside the group) cannot hear this. That is the reason why it comes across as though we are not vocalizing the words.
Q:How did you acquire the wardrobe you are currently wearing in Mibu?
A: Well, let's just say I bought it at the Mibu department store! *laughs* Although I can't stand the Mibu, I must admit that I don't dislike the design of their clothing. It's pretty unique.
