Hello, Fräuleins!
The Medic

The Geisha Boy is a headwear item for the Medic. It is the haircut of a traditional Japanese Template:W with team-colored flowers and wrap.

The Geisha Boy, released with the Shogun Pack, was awarded in Genuine quality to players who pre-purchased Total War: SHOGUN 2 on Steam before March 15, 2011. It is also available through crafting, item drops, or purchase from the Mann Co. Store.

Trivia

  • The hat is named after the 1958 film Template:W.
  • The hairstyle used for the hat is Momoware (桃割), a style typically worn by Template:W.
  • The haiku in the description is a parody of one by Template:W, the most famous poet of Japan's Edo period:

old pond . . .
a frog leaps in
water’s sound

  • The very first geisha (芸者) were men[1], entertaining customers waiting to see the most popular and gifted courtesans whose skills include performing various Japanese arts such as classical music and dance.
