Hatori is a middle aged man who owns the Tea Shop in Betancuria North and really knows how to handle his stick. Hatori is a monk and a weapon master, yet he has reservations about the use of violence. Hatori gives the Princess some basic training in fighting during Lesson 2. Hatori has a student named Taka, whom he trains in martial arts, but it is unclear what he gets from Taka in return. Taka maintains some sort of oath of silence and isn't inclined to speak.
