And then there’s little Fuu, the mystery girl. We know just as little about her.
Mother dead, father long missing, she’s drifted and worked a variety of jobs (we're
told) despite her young age, only 15. (My hunch is that this would only have been
in the past year, since that's when her mom died.) The earth element of the triad,
[--though her name means "wind", so maybe she's air instead?] she wears mauve-shaded
pink, right down to her plum-blossom-patterned tanto knife. A teashop waitress when
we meet her, she takes the arson destruction of the teahouse as a sign that it’s
time for her to hit the road and go on her great quest: the search for a mysterious
samurai who smells like sunflowers. Who is he? What is he to Fuu? Why does she want
to find him? Do sunflowers even have any smell? These become the background questions
of the series. Though anime-girl cute with her big brown eyes and petite figure,
Fuu is no pushover and will not be bullied. She’s brave and determined, willing
- like the guys - to go hungry, improvise, and live by her wits to reach her goal.
She hates to see anyone or anything bullied or mistreated and will stand up to anyone
in defense of the abused; her compassionate heart has already earned her the love
of several unlikely characters in the series. Nor is she afraid to call names and
knock heads when her newly-adopted older brothers misbehave. She’s got a bit of
a gambling bug and has awe-inspiring skills as a dice dealer, acquired we have no
idea how or when. Hidden somewhere on her person at the unlikeliest times is her
pet flying squirrel, Momosan, which has helped her out of several jams. And, of
course, she’s the driver of the trio’s adventure: she helped rescue Mugen and Jin
for the express purpose of recruiting them, and though they run into many things
on the road, their end goal is always hers.
