Story
The two kids find The Wandering Samurai resting under a tree on the grounds of an old temple. Their mother asked them to offer a rice ball to the samurai, who graciously accepts it, and finds the taste similar to how his own mother used to make them. Later on, their pinwheel gets stolen by Demons, and the samurai stumbles upon the kids in distress. In the name of justice, the samurai follows the demons to a cliff, where he proceeds to slice them all until getting the pinwheel back.
Depending on the Epilogue, the kids find the samurai beaten and show concern for him (Try Again), make jokes about him being "an OK samurai" (OK) or celebrate having their pinwheel returned and thank the kind samurai for his deeds (Superb).
Some time later, Bunny Man had bought a stuffed bunny for a little girl, which got stolen by Demons. The Wandering Samurai appeared to help, chasing them down in the city to retrieve the bunny.
