	Goemon Ishikawa XIII - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Goemon Ishikawa is the thirteenth generation of renegade samurai, beginning with the real-life historical figure Ishikawa Goemon (石川五右衛門).
		Goemon also has an extreme sense of pride in his abilities, and when he cannot accomplish a task (such as breaking Zantetsuken in a battle with Flinch from Mystery of Mamo) or succumbs to weakness (as when a woman ran off with his sword in Tokyo Crisis) usually feels extreme shame and remorse afterward.
		Goemon is commonly thought to be a samurai, but this episode depicts him as having had the training of a master ninja, perhaps giving some reason behind his willingness to find thievery as an acceptable practice, in spite of his samurai ways.
