Murakami In The Samurai's Tale

Improved Essays
I believe Murakami is one of the best leaders in The Samurai’s Tale when compared to Wada Kansuke, and Lord Akiyama due to his caring, trustworthy, and loyal ways. The reason why I think Murakami is better because he shows many skills and he likes to go all out and doesn’t hesitate much on things he thinks he should do or not to do. Lord Akiyama is a good leader because he gives good orders and people listen to them. Murakami and Wada Kansuke are mostly the same because of their personality and because they have honor, and they are reliable. Lord Akiyama is merciful and he is kind to other people and he favorites Murakami the most. Wada Kansuke is a wise, kind, and smart leader but he is not as caring as Murakami. Murakami always listens to the commands he is given. The comparison between the three characters are very similar and their personalities are too. …show more content…
I think he is better than Wada Kansuke because he is willing to do more things like curing others and asking people if they need help. “May I bandage your wound?”(Pg 115) is a good example that shows that Murakami cares for other people even if he doesn’t know them. He is a good character to look up to because he shows courage and his skills. Murakami follows all of his orders and is trustworthy. Wada Kansuke is more wise than Murakami and smarter, but he is not as kind as Murakami is. I think that Murakami would be a really good leader and his loyalty, honesty, and trustworthy would get him there. Murakami is most worthy to be a leader in my opinion because he also has skill. But Murakami gets angry sometimes. Unlike Wada Kansuke Murakami is more brave and also shows more
