Kanbei… He looks too monochromatic without clothes so I did a healthy fleshy skin tone version of him. I’m sorry for all the badass-Kanbei fanboys out there, just take a closer look to his cut scenes in the game and you’ll notice that he’s actually a very… very handsome man, especially when he smiles. Kanbei reference…
I made Hanbei look slightly older because that’s what I’d prefer him to be in terms of yaoi, but no matter how young Koei made him look, he is Kanbei’s partner and in fact two years older than Kanbei. The reason why he may look so young in the game may be that he’s a “mystic”. Hanbei reference….
Historically Hanbei and Kanbei were very close, close enough for Hanbei to defy Nobunaga’s orders to save Kanbei’s son and Kanbei sharing his family crest with Hanbei. Read more about the history and legends behind these characters in the Koei Wiki:

I’m not Japanese, the room interior is made up and may offend Japanese people with bad zen wibes. Same with Kanbei’s hakama; it’s there purely for fetish reasons and it’s not tied up correctly. Hakamas are sexy! All characters depicted herein are at least 18 years of age.
