He is more calculating than Odin.
He's actually based on an entirely different culture, but no matter.
And yeah, I suppose he'd be the 'insta-death' summon for this game, like Odin was.
Actually he's probably more of an FFVIII Gilgamesh (i.e. sometimes he sucks ass). Can anyone actually be bothered paying him, at tops, 200 gil?
Ask the people that actually bother to pay Yojimbo money. The NTSC and NTSC-J players will murder you if you belittled their costs. The PAL and Int. players would just laught at you.
So, yes, people pay him more than 200 gil. Regularly. If you want him to perform anything better than Kozuka, then you pay him around 1000 gil until he performs it at a lower cost.
Yojimbo looks NOTHING like Odin.
In PAL if you pay him 300gil he still does Zanmato 25% of the time. Pay him 1100 and he does it about 35%. So hes like an Odin which kills bosses too.
my opinion is that he's worth paying...he's helped me a lot throughout the game....
Exactly they look compltely differentQuote:

Yes, both have an insta-death attack. Recent installments portray Odin as a samurai-esque summon anyway, not to mention his special attack always being called 'Zantetsuken'. Of course, since FFX was more Japanese-themed, it makes sense they'd add a twist to the insta-death summon of the game. I don't really use Yojimbo that much; I'm too lazy to go Gil farming, and I don't have much left to do on my game anyway (NTSC...).
And his entrance is badass.
Yes they are similar except that Odin is more useful than Yojimbo, plus you don't have to pay him.
Yojimbo actually has an insta-death attack like Odin?!?!
*wonders where celestial_dream have been throughout the whole game*
No, seriously! He does?! Myabe cos I never EVER use Yojimbo. I may not be poor in terms of gil in FFX, but I'm definitely not RICH! And I've seen ppl paying him thousands of gil, but the enemies didn't die or anything... so....
Odin, in my opinion, tops Yojimbo a lot more. PLUS he rides on a horse *grins*
I am hardly to perform Zanmato till now, sigh! But, it is ok and fine, I feel delighted because that Yojimbo is so useful especially when I am facing a boss which is curse my aeon. When I defeat Yunalesca, I am using his Wakizashi for 9999 each turn, and I won (THX to GOD). Even when Yojimbo got cursed, he could done several times 9999 damage! (as long as you pay him enough gil, right?)
Anima has an instant death attack also, does that make her like Odin?
Pain of anima does not kill any boss instantly but ZANMATO can kill anything wether its penance or nemesis lolzorz!!
How can you compare Yojimbo to Odin? Odin is like the best summon in the whole series. (At his best in ff8). Yojimbo is crap. 50% of the time I dont even bother getting him. (screw anima)
Yojimbo is a badass.
I find Yojimbo is alot like Shadow from VI.... casting vanish/doom, he's even got the dog
I was also thinking about Shadow and Interceptor when I saw Yojimbo and his dog. Ability-wise, though, I think Yojimbo's quite similar to Odin.Quote:
