Character Profile: Pantyhose Taro

When Pantyhose Taro was born, the perverted Happosai assisted in delivering and washing him. By village law, whoever washed the newborn child was the one who would name it. Happosai wanted to give him a name that would be loved by everyone. Because of his fetish for women's under-garments, Happosai assumed that people would love such a name. As if that wasn't reason enough to hate Happosai, the spring that he washed the baby in was one of the many cursed springs at Jusenkyo. In this one a bull, crane, yeti, and snake all drowned at the same time.
