Genjuro was the bastard child of a noble Japanese man and a small, Russian woman who both died of some obscure disease (later diagnosed as stupidity),  while Genjuro was still a little boy. With nobody to take care of him, Genjuro spent most of his childhood living in a garbage can. One day, a man known as Ichiro discovered the boy living in a garbage can and felt sorry for him. It turned out that Ichiro was one of the strongest samurai warriors in all of Japan and he decided to train young Genjuro as his disciple.

Genjuro's weapon skills went unmatched (of course still not as good as Ichiro). When Ichiro, realized that, he immediately presented Genjuro to the Emperor. The Emperor was quite impressed with Genjuro's skills. That is, until the moment that Genjuro's pants mysteriously fell down, thus, exposing himself to both the Emperor and Master Ichiro. The Emperor was quite offended, blinded and traumatized, as well as all of his royal court, the Emperess, the concubines, all of the servants of the palace, the guy who happened to be delivering Chinese food at the time, the Emperor's neighbor, the Emperor's mother-in-law, his children, his pet goat, and his favorite teddy bear, Mr.Snookie. Genjuro was so ashamed that he began to run away, but that did not work very well, seeing as that his pants were around his ankles at the time. Thus, he fell, got up, pulled his pants up and ran all the way back to Ichiro's dojo. Ichiro thought to himself:

"Surely, I will no longer continue to be the master of the man who has just flashed the Emperor."

 Luckilly for Ichiro, the Emperor was thinking the same thing. He ordered Ichiro to have poor Genjuro removed from Japan. Ichiro tried to convince Genjuro to leave, but Genjuro insisted that it was not his fault that his pants fell down. Eventually, Ichiro came up with a clever plan to get rid of the disgraceful man. Ichiro said to him:

"The king of some obscure town needs your help and the Emperor thinks that you are the only one who can help him. If you complete this task, the Emperor will respect you, once again."

"What are you talking about?" Genjuro replied. "I didn't even know that small towns in Japan had any kings."

"Yes, well.... er.... they do. So says the Emperor. Anyway, you must find a woman named May who has committed a most heinous crime!"

"What? You mean she flashed the Emperor too?"

"No, you idiot! Listen to me! She has... uh.... um.... Pushed a pretty-boy off of a cliff, stole his silver axe, tried to sell the axe in a pawnshop, smacked the owner of the pawnshop across the face with the axe and she also smokes indoors. You must find her and bring her to the Emperor as soon as possible!"

And thus, Genjuro set out on his quest to find this woman named May that his master didn't think existed.

From then on, Genjuro was known as.... THE SHAME OF JAPAN.

"When I was just a little boy, a wise elder once told me 'Genjuro! Go jump in the lake!' and I asked 'Why, elder? You know I cannot swim. Are you suggesting that I kill myself?' He said 'Genjuro, you idiot!! Your hair is on fire!!' I will never forget that day...."
