4. Chapter 38 Ann and Hachimaru and Goku Plot
Chapter 38 strayed from the action and adventure for the most part. It explored the depths of “relationships” in the Samurai 8 universe. The chapter starts from an individual panel with Ata teasing that we might be seeing him soon.
This is followed by a slightly-strung conversation between Hachimaru and Goku. It is clear from their conversation is that these two believe themselves to be the rivals of one another.
In the next panel, when Hachimaru comes back to Ann from his training, he sees her with Goku – who apparently is a capable cook. Hachi being jealous, challenges him for a little sparring match.
Hachi tries to show-off in front of Ann but is easily defeated by Goku in seconds – to which Daruma states that this rivalry is exactly what Hachi needs to level up. Under the frustration of his defeat, Hachi shouts at Ann, after which she seemingly ignores him for the rest of the chapter until the end.
During that time, Goku tells Hachi that princess and Samurai bound by fate may not necessarily fall in love – it can either be a life of love with freedom or a life of shackles of fate. Both Ann and Hachi are then advised by Sen and princess Kiriku to meet each other.
Upon meeting, Hachi confesses his jealousy while Ann confesses her liking for Hachimaru and mentions her brother. This leaves Hachimaru in a bit of surprise, and the chapter ends there and then.
