A question for those familiar with the Clan Wars-era stories: was Hoturi particularly known for using a naginata? I find its presence in his art to be interesting, and unexpected, given that I primarily thought of him as a iaijutsu master (which is to say, katana-wielder).

Huh. Interesting. Reviewing the art for his various cards, you are quite correct - in fact, he doesn't seem to have ever been depicted with a katana in hand.
It makes sense - the katana was historically a sidearm (and symbol) for samurai, not a primary battle weapon. And reach is a very nice thing to have in melee. It's just an odd juxtaposition with all of his abilities relating to iaijutsu duelling.
(Also from the department of oddities - why is a naginata the best weapon to bring to an iai duel in the CCG? You can't use them for iai!)

Also, I am loving the Jason Engle art.
