If KO'd he slashes them vertically up in half instead.
==Story==
===History===
Koh Kazama, often just called Samurai Koh, is a man truly ahead of his time... literally. Koh comes from an ancient time where he was considered the strongest warrior in a ninja village near Wildefort. One time the village got attacked by a menacing demon who had been locked up for centuries, Murasame. Koh stepped forth to beat the demon, and he managed to land a fatal blow, killing him. Murasame, with his last strength, opened up a portal to the future where Koh was sent to, getting back at him that he will never be able to protect his clan so that is slowly dies out. In the present Koh, although confused at first, he became accustomed to life in the present.
===Doom Dome Battle===
At the start of the game he is still inside of his dojo but is approached by Fat French Penguin who alarms him about that Lil'Pengu has been abducted by extraterrestrials. Samurai Koh joins Fat French Penguin in the search for Lil'Pengu. When they arrive at the graveyard however, Koh feels a presence calling for him. He follows the call, letting Fat French Penguin. A ghost appears and Koh follows it until the ghost has enough and battles it.
After the battle the ghost, named Spook, saw Koh's samurai skills and asks if he is a member of the Shinrin clan to which Koh is surprised and asks if they still are alive in this age. Spook reveals they are not and draws the conclusion that Koh is not from this time, and Koh says he is from the past. Spook asks him to keep the honor of the clan alive, and Koh suggests Spook to seek his unfinished business so he can rest in peace.
As he heads back to the dojo, at the beginning of the Asian District he is stopped by yet another spirit, this one being Hanakatoba. He recognized her as his former student, and she tells she has been in love with him and still is, but that demons are shrouding the district and the dojo right now. Koh fights his way through to eliminate them. Hanakatoba pleads for him to stay, but he decides that those demons need to be dealt with.
Koh sees all the demons that are shrouding the place and decides to go to the place they hail from, as he has dealt with demons before and certainly can now. He travels to the Gates of Hell and underway bumps into Jamila, who admires Koh for what he is going to do and wants to assist him. They continue and meet with Joshua and Amaya at the gates. However once inside Koh, along with the others gets locked up by Paimon. He gets freed by Jersey Devil after he fights Jamila, and they want to find a way to break Jersey's contract. Mephistopheles, Tyrant and Barbatos enter Hell again and engage in battle with the intruders, Koh fighting Barbatos. Koh defeats Barbatos but Paimon regains consciousness and kicks everyone out of Hell.

==References==
*His main appearance is based on Takamaru from The Mysterious Murasame Castle, with a mix of Samurai Jack from his titular series.
*His backstory closely resembles that of Jack, being a person who traveled forwards in time. However this time he simply lives there and works as a kendo teacher. This is similar to Jack's role in Powerpuff Girls Doujinshi.
*His surname was not revealed until Warriors of Babylon. Kazama is assumed to be the original name of Fūma Kotarō, the leader of the Fūma clan, and notorious for having killed Hattori Hanzō.
