Hi,
Refering to : viewtopic.php?f=59&t=96411
Can you confirm that Asako Karachu unbows after being bowed by The Gozoku Sensei ability ? And later if he bows once more, the gozoku Sensei ability will prevent him from straightening ?
Card Text : Asako Karachu : After Karachu bows: Straighten him.
Gosoku Sensei : All Factions Sensei You may not play this card if you have a Wind. Political Open: Discard the Favor to bow a Personality. He may not straighten until after you discard the Favor again or his controller pays 6 Gold as an Open action.
Thanks in advance, Regards, Rémi.

He will be bowed by the first effect of the action taken using Gozoku Sensei's Open ability, and immediately straighten. The second effect will then prevent him straightening.
