[there's the sound of mechanical breathing for several seconds before Kuma speaks.]

Still no news...

I'm growing weary of waiting.

[brief pause] Tracing the headbands has proved fruitless. It's as if both simply vanished. But that's impossible! He's out there, somewhere, and men are hunting for him. I am not the only one. He won't permit any other to kill him... I will be the one to finish this job. I will take the headband, and his life!!

[slightly labored mechanical breathing, until it clicks off seconds later]

I've made no progress finding him.

There is no news of the Number Two Headband, nor the Afro Samurai. He could not have just disappeared. The Empty Seven promised me the opportunity to claim his life with my own hands...

I will need to visit soon. Are you in the Abyss, or have these military movements effected your work?

Tell me where the Afro Samurai is.

One of you in this godforsaken city knows where the Number Two headband is, and you're going to tell me.

IDUI // tiny companion and the only person jinnosuke is emotionally attached to.

FLEMMING // man responsible for piecing together kuma's body and occasionally performs repairs.

NATAKU // brother - not by blood, but through science. another creation of flemming's.
