I would not want to perform seppuku. I would not want to do this because, if I were ronin, at least I would still have a life to live. If I performed seppuku, I would lose my life. I would want to live my life and not kill myself because my Daimyo died. I believe that it would be very scary knowing that you are about to kill yourself even though, you were not obligated to do it. Why kill yourself when you can still live until you really die. This is why I believe that I would rather be ronin, than perform seppuku.

I agree with myles. I would also think to be a ronin because if you were to kill yourself you would not live your whole life and when you become a ronin you can still live your whole life but not how you wanted it to be.

I have to disagree with you Myles. I disagree with you because it would be better to just kill yourself then being treated with disrespect and starve. Also, no one would see you as a threat because your dead.That is why I disagree with Myles.

I agree with Cheyenne because you don't want to live being disrespected and starve. You don't want to put yourself through that. So just kill yourself to get it over with with them be disrespected. This is why I agree with Cheyenne.

I agree with Myles because I would not want to kill myself. I would have a useful life instead of killing myself.

I agree with you Myles because you could still be with your family and your family wouldn't think of you with dishonor like everyone else would.

I would have to disagree with you Myles.My reason is because everyone will see you as a threat and you would starve so I would rather kill myself quickly than die slowly.Also seppuku is awesome why would you not want to stab yourself in the stomach then drag the knife across your stomach then have someone chop off your head. :)

If I was a samurai and I lost loyalty to the daimyo I would be a ronin. I would be a ronin because who would like to kill themselves. If I wanted to preform seppuku I would have someone else do it because I would be too scared to stab myself. The reason why I would be a ronin is because you would still be living instead of killing yourself. This is why I think that being a Ronin is better than preforming seppuku.

I agree, but without performing seppuku, you would show your daimyo no respect.You are living a free life, but also one with the huge guilt of not respecting your daimyo and his death.

Ronin because I would like to follow the life of a ninja. Why live a useless life and die. When you can not perform seppuku and not be loyal to the daimyo.

Also you ca be really stealth and you will 99% of the time. Being a samurai, there is so many other dangers than there is being ninja. If you're a samurai then you can die from spike, and fire rockets.

If I were a samurai and I had no loyalty, I would commit seppuku. I would do this because it is better to die then live in disrespect and starve. Also, no one would see you as a threat anymore because you would be dead. That is why I would perform Seppuku rather then be a ronin.

I would be a Ronin because when I lose honor I would became a ninja because they are more amazing to me. I also like sabotaging and blowing up stuff when I am a ninja

I agree with Jesus. Ninjas are very interesting and it seems like a very cool title to have. To call yourself a Ninja. That would be pretty great.

I would not preform seppuku because to me it does not matter how you kill as long as you get the job done. Plus I could become a ninja

I would not perform Seppuku because I would be more useful alive than dead. I would avenge my master. If I killed myself, I would just let the enemies win. This is why I would not perform Seppuku.

I agree with you Sebastian because, I could try to avenge my Daimyo. I could also live longer. I could even do more things that I would not be able to do if I was a samurai. I may be mistreated, but like Sebastian said, I could still be more useful if I were alive. This is why I would not perform seppuku and why I agree with Sebastian.

I agree with Myles and Sebastian. Living longer is better than cutting your life short. Even if you are dishonored, you can gain power. Ninjas were citizens and samurai that did not perform seppuku. They could become Ninja and take power back.

I agree with you Sebastian. I would not commit Seppuku. It is true that you would be more useful alive than dead. If you are dead, you cannot help anyone in any way. You would just be letting your enemies win. No one wants their enemies to win.

I agree with Myles. I would be a ronin because I would not perform seppuku. If I perform seppuku, I would lose my life. This is why I would be ronin.

In my opinion I would become ronin. Only because I would like to keep going with my life. I have already had training as a samurai then obviously I would have a chance of being a pretty good ninja. I would like to see if I could survive and handle life as ronin. And after all if I couldn't handle it I would just kill myself being a ronin or die because I would starve of something similar.

I would not perform Seppuku. First suicide is not right. When your leader can't protect themselves, even when they are trained, honor is not needed. It's not your problem that your Daimyo died.

If I lost my loyalty to my Daimyo, I would not commit Seppuku. I would become Ronin. The reason behind this is, I would not want to kill myself. I would like to live a long life and not die by killing myself. Also, being a ninja does not seem that bad. It actually seems better then being a samurai. Though, it is hard to be a ninja because you have to be stealthy, but I would still like to be one. There is no point for me to commit Seppuku. If I become Ronin, I would not have to kill myself. Which means I can live a longer life.

I WOULD perform seppuku because if I did not (more like would not ) I would die and be killed anyway. Also, If I did not perform seppuku It would be showing my daimyo that I do not respect him/her.

I think I would perform seppuku because I don't want to put myself through the punishments and be disrespected. I would rather die than suffer. Also even though my life would be lost it would be better then living a disrespected life.
