As the seven samurai arrive, led by Kambei, the farmers are nowhere to be seen, hiding away in their shelters resulting in great confusion throughout the seven samurai as Heihachi states “A real welcome, I’d say”(57).

This is proved because Source 4 tells us that Tomoe Gozen "performed more deeds of valour than any other of his warriors". Some differences is that Source 4 refers to Tomoe Gozen only, but Source 5 tells us the way that all samurai should behave.…

For Osho (1976), it seems absurd that one could…
