: A thin, mustachioed Asura with a ducktail hairstyle and a regal appearance. Samoto sends his subordinates to raid villages to find himself a bride. Samoto has little success due to his dimwitted and violent subordinates frightening away prospective brides with their terrifying appearances. He discovers the unconscious [[Lin]] on the back of [[Kaioh's horse]] after having her ''Shikanhaku'' (死環白) vital point struck, cursing her to fall in love with the next man she lays eyes on. Samoto is grateful to finally have found a maiden and a beautiful one at that, Samoto primps up himself and plans to make her his wife.

: As he waits impatiently for Lin to awaken, unknowing of the point struck, [[Numeri]] turns up and slaughters Samoto's minions before striking Samoto's head off with one finger.

: Confusingly, a character resembling the original Samoto also briefly appears in the TV series among the minions of the "anime Samoto."

* In the DVD extras, there are model sheets for the series. There is a model sheet of Manga Samoto labeled Samoto, while the "anime Samoto" is simply labeled Numeri. This indicates at one point, Samoto and Numeri were separate characers in the anime, while the Manga Samoto's modelsheet was ~~ultimatley~~ recycled for an extra.

** Confusingly the lookalike of manga Samoto only appears for one particular shot, having never been seen with Anime Samoto/Numeri's men" before. Thus his appearance could be considered an easter egg.

* It is unclear if Samoto was a martial artist or not, the most combat he did was whack a subordinte with a pickax.

* In ''[[Shin Hokuto Muso]]'' DLC mission, a generic Shura Commmander with long hair has some similar dialogue to Samoto. This Shura knows Lin had her Shikanhaku struck and fights Kenshiro with a martial artist fighting style.
