'''Kanbei''' is a [[Commanding Officer]] enlisted in the [[Yellow Comet]] army. He is the emperor of Yellow Comet and the leader of its forces in ''[[Advance Wars]]'' and ''[[Advance Wars 2: Black Hole Rising]]''. [[Sensei]] taught him everything he knows about battling. His boldness and inability to use technology are often contrasted with his daughter [[Sonja]]'s shyness and technical ability for comic relief.
 
In ''[[Advance Wars 1+2: Re-Boot Camp]]'', he presents a ''[[wikipedia:gunbai|gunbai]]'' in his CO Power animation.
 
==Role==
===''In Advance Wars''===
In the original ''Advance Wars'', Kanbei rushes off to stop Orange Star as soon as they enter Yellow Comet. He is defeated three times before Sonja explains that Orange Star was merely passing through, and attacked because ''he'' attacked them. In the final battle, if Kanbei is present, he declares that [[Sturm]] has committed an "unforgivable sin" for capturing Sonja.
 
===''In Advance Wars 2: Black Hole Rising''===
 
===''In Advance Wars: Dual Strike''===
Kanbei makes no formal appearance in ''[[Advance Wars: Dual Strike|Dual Strike]]''. However, he is cloned and sent to fight against the [[Allied Nations]] during the [[Omega Land]] war. Upon completion of the final mission, he is available for use in the Hard Campaign.
 
==Personality==
Kanbei is a bold and honorable individual who adheres to the samurai way of the warrior. He is willing to fight to protect his subjects, regardless of any consequences to himself. However, he is also at times airheaded and sometimes incompetent at the basics of combat, such as when he vowed to "[[Kanbei's Error?|deploy a mountain of troops]]" from a useless base on an isolated island.

'''Kanbei''' is a [[Commanding Officer]] enlisted in the [[Yellow Comet]] army. He is the emperor of Yellow Comet and the leader of its' forces in [[Advance Wars (Game)|Advance Wars]] and [[Advance Wars 2]]. [[Sensei]] taught him everything he knows about battling. His boldness and inability to use technology is often contrasted with his daughter [[Sonja|Sonja's]] shyness and technical ability for comic relief.
==Trivia==
* In the unreleased iQue prototype of ''Advance Wars'' originally developed for the Chinese market, Kanbei's appearance was significantly altered to resemble less like an Imperial Japanese officer; his facial hair and katana were removed and his uniform was changed. Kanbei's Imperial Forces were also renamed to Kanbei's Special Forces. In the western version of the game Kanbei believes he is a modern samurai, while in the Chinese version he likens himself to a modern [[wikipedia:Zhang Fei|Zhang Fei]]. These changes were likely done by Nintendo to avoid any connotations with Japan's invasion of China during World War II.<ref>rawmeatcowboy (26 March 2019).

''GoNintendo''. Retrieved 31 May 2023.</ref>
* According to the ''Nintendo DREAM'' strategy guide for ''[[Game Boy Wars Advance 1+2]]'', Kanbei is 36 years old.<ref>https://askadvancewars.tumblr.com/post/671605036436062208/sorry-ive-been-gone-and-neglected-the-blog-for</ref>
