Question:

I've cornered a lone dishonored personality in a battle. I have three Bayushi Hirose in the battle. Can I bow him once, do the 2 point honor loss then target him again two more times even when he is bowed to cause four additional points of honor loss?

Bayushi Hirose Scorpion Clan • Samurai • Magistrate Political Battle: Bow a target dishonorable Personality. His controller loses 2 Honor.

"Can I use an action that bows a card if it's already bowed?" is the first example here: http://rules.l5r.com/FAQ#Is_an_action_l ... _happen.3F

Yes.
