<P> She is a surprisingly big eater (in one episode she entered an eating contest and was one of the last two remaining, shocking all the spectators; she might have won, except for an unintentional forfeit), has a bright and compassionate personality, and is strongly prone to accidents, getting lost, and trouble although she is quite practical . She often puts on a front of being more worldly and experienced than she actually is so as not to appear completely ingenuous in front of her bodyguards . Fuu wears a deep pink kimono with a pattern of flowers and carries a matching tantō . Attached to the tantō are three netsuke: a skull (a Christian pendant from her father), a pair of dice and a dog . She's almost always seen wearing what looks like pink polish on both her nails and toenails . Her name, Fuu (フウ), is short for fuukinchou (フウ キンチョウ), which is Japanese for "tanagers", small, brightly colored birds . </P> <P> Voiced by: Kouji Nakata (Japanese); Doug Stone (English) </P> <P> The "samurai who smells of sunflowers" (向日葵 の 匂い の する 侍, himawari no nioi no suru samurai) is Kasumi Seizō, a Christian samurai who played a leading role in the Shimabara Rebellion . His death is sought by the Shogunate as a result of this betrayal . </P> <P> The objective of the trio's quest, he is revealed later on in the series to actually be Fuu's father . He left Fuu and her mother to save them from anti-Christian persecution (he was a major proponent of Christianity, considered heretical at the time). Fuu, however, thinks that his abandoning the family was unforgivable . Her only memory of him is a departing figure shifting through a field of sunflowers . </P>
