Little is known about Genjuro's childhood; he claims to have killed his family and at least a thousand other people. His mother was a prostitute, until Genjuro killed one of her clients.

Eventually, he became a student of Kafuin Nikochin along with Haohmaru. The two became very close friends and one of the best samurai in the academy. Then Nikochin decided to have Genjuro fight Haohmaru to determine who was stronger, in order to give him a special scroll. The two men fought for hours, until Genjuro defeated Haohmaru, and had to be restrained from killing him. Nikochin stopped the fight and banished Genjuro; true strength does not mean killing a friend in a duel. Haohmaru - Wikipedia /**/ @import /skins-1. ...
Genjuro has made it his goal in life to bring suffering upon Nikochin and Haohmaru. He hates Haohmaru especially because he resembles the man his mother was with when he killed them. He is travelling through the country, picking fights with (and most of the times killing) anybody on his way.
