Ichi

Ichi Sato is an anthropomorphic penguin, legendary fighter, and an ally of Hanzo, Mimmi, and Zen and long time friend of Grand Master Rice. He and his wife, Mika work at their own bar in the city. As his character, he helps out Hanzo, along with Mimmi and Zen, to protect a sword called the Mursame from an arm's dealer monkey and fights whatever else comes in to play. He speaks in Japanese and sometimes in little English. He is voiced by Nackl.

Early Life
Ichi has been friends with Grand Master Rice and Rhyzo, Hanzo's father, for a long time. During the time of Hanzo's birth, he was told by General Tokugawa to inform Rhyzo that Fuma had broken out of prison and went on a rampage and he needed him, Ichi, and Rice to stop him. When all three united and came face to face with Fuma, they used the Mursame to defeat him. General Tokugawa then called for a celebration, but before it happened, Fuma was secretly alive still and used his mind-reading ability on Rhyzo to track down his wife, Meg. When he arrived at the house, he then attacked and possessed her. Later after Meg was found dead, Rhyzo was arrested for treason for refusing to get out of the way of the house after Tokugawa ordered the soldiers to burn the home while Fuma was still inside. Rhyzo was then imprisoned but escaped three days later, never to be heard or seen from again at that time, leaving his son, Hanzo to Grand Master Rice in order to be taken care of.

Appearance
Ichi has black fur on the side and top of his head, and middle of his face. He also seems to have blushes under his eyes. His clothing consists of a red scarf, white long sleeved v-neck shirt with, supposedly, little symbols on it, white short skirt-like pants, and sandals.

Trivia

 * In a scene of NINJA CAT, Ichi speaks in perfect English during a negotiation with the monkey due to the person, who portrays him, training to read the lines in English and mastering it.
 * He had banned Hanzo before from his bar due for an unknown reason.
