A topic from AEG's L5R CCG Rules forum, copied for Oracle of the Void from a copy of the forum saved in October 2015, so pages it didn't save are missing. Players' names are left out; the rules officials are named. Rulings are as they stood on these dates; later rulings, the rulebooks and the Rules Archive may differ.
A player, 28 September 2011
I have a dishonored Doji Nukada and i am causing him an honorloss (eg via taxing the scum) to use the reaction of Doji Nukada. My opponent plays an only Actions Speak on the Nukada react...what happens?
a) i still have a dishonred doji nukada, he draws a card, loses 1 honor and i cant gain any honor that phase b) i have a rehonored doji nukada and the only actions speak was for nothing
Doji Nukada Crane Clan • Artisan • Poet Political Reaction: After an action's resolution ends, if another player lost Honor (for any reason) during that resolution: Nukada's poems immortalize the shame. That player loses 1 Honor. Gain 1 Honor.
Only Actions Speak Reaction: After an action is announced: Negate all Honor gains until after the action's resolution. At that time if this negated any gains, negate all Honor gains until the end of this phase and draw a card.
Before a player gains Honor from an action or trait that targeted, came from, or was performed by one or more of his or her dishonorable Personalities, if any of those Personalities is not otherwise rehonored by the action or trait, each Personality is rehonored and the player does not gain the Honor. (Dishonorable status is checked when the Personality is targeted, etc. For more details, see References). [CHANGED 2 Aug 2011]

That's actually already been answered here - in the future, the Search function will get you answers faster than the Rules Team!
In this particular case, the end result will be A, with the slight correction that neither player may gain honor this phase..
