== Son ==
In her childbirth's first born Yusuke accepted to follow a Tonbo ritual, to don his wife's clothes and paint his face as a woman, as required by Yuniko's uncle. Yusuke was deeply embarrased for such practice, and when his son showed no aptitude for the way of a bushi Yusuke blamed on the ritual. In his second's childbirth he refused to follow, and the infant was born dead. 
=== Ghost ===
Yusuke's desire was so great for a true warrior that his dead son's spirit manifested, and grew stronger, draining Yuniko's life. He began to spar with bokken with his brother, under the name of Jirou. Yusuke eventually realized he was a ghost, and saw his sons fighting each other. Only one survived. Jirou had possessed his brother's body. He was trained by Yusuke, who weakened as Jirou grew stronger. His martial prowess was so great that Yusuke never admitted his first son's body had been possessed.
