The &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Laughing Man&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (died 1582) was a [[Japan]]ese &amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[rōnin]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039; and participant in &amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[kabukimono]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039; culture located in [[Harima]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Biography==&lt;br /&gt;
As a &amp;#039;&amp;#039;kabukimono&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, the Laughing Man was one of the multiple &amp;#039;&amp;#039;rōnin&amp;#039;&amp;#039; who attacked the communities across the provinces of [[Izumi Settsu]] and [[Harima]]. Alongside the [[Corrupt Blade]] and the [[Peacock]], he was one of three elite &amp;#039;&amp;#039;kabukimono&amp;#039;&amp;#039;. However, the priest [[Shin&amp;#039;nyo]] of the [[Nishinomiya Shrine]] conversed with the [[Japanese Brotherhood of Assassins|Kakushiba &amp;#039;&amp;#039;ikki&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]] member [[Fujibayashi Naoe]] to take down the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;kabukimono&amp;#039;&amp;#039;.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Kabukimono&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Assassin&amp;#039;s Creed: Shadows]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039; – [[The Kabukimono]]&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
By 1582, the Laughing Man was known for his insatiable hunger for power and recruited any &amp;#039;&amp;#039;rōnin&amp;#039;&amp;#039; willing to follow his campaign. Yet, Naoe soon found and assassinated the Laughing Man and acquired a trinket, the [[Flight of the Ubagabi]], from his personal effects.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Kabukimono&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Personality and traits==&lt;br /&gt;
The Laughing Man wielded a [[katana]] as his main weapon.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Assassin&amp;#039;s Creed: Shadows]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Behind the scenes==&lt;br /&gt;
The Laughing Man is a character in &amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Assassin&amp;#039;s Creed: Shadows]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039; and serves as one of eight targets in &amp;quot;[[The Kabukimono]]&amp;quot;. The player is given the choice when posting a reply on a board at Nishinomiya Shrine to the elite &amp;#039;&amp;#039;kabukimono&amp;#039;&amp;#039;. This leads the player to either killing the Laughing Man at [[Blackstone Cascades]] or killing him along with the Corrupt Blade and the Peacock at a small outpost in southern Harima.&lt;br /&gt;
