Benkei was also an ally of the historical character, Yoshitsune, whom Waka was based off. His name comes from Yoshitsune's childhood name, Ushiwakamaru.
When Ushiwakamaru was a young man (I would guess early twenties) he was walking down a bridge playing a flute his mother gave him. He came across Benkei, who challenged him to gain his 1000th sword. Ushiwakamaru easily beat him but lost his flute in the river. Benkei swore undying loyalty to Ushiwakamaru. (Obviously I've simplified the story)
Saito Musashibo Benkei was a historic monk warrior in feudal Japan of great strength and a legendary figure. For centuries the character of Benkei has been subject to Kabuki and Noh plays and to numerous depictions on Japanese art objects. He is the epitome of a guy strong like a grizzly bear, but with a big heart and loyal to his lord - still one of the greatest virtues in Japanese society. At least, that's what it said on an art site called "artelino."
thank you very much!

The mist!!! (by Steven King) XD My only gripe with this part of the game is that you cant just use the damn wind power and blow the mist away.

lol, Benkei, must be a pretty common Japanese name for these feudal era games. I say that because the name is in Genjil Dawn of the Samurai as well.

I never really got how everyone in Okami just expects this wolf walking around to understand what they're saying, and do what they say. Pretty odd.
That's why this game rules, though.
