Hida Defenders Reaction: After the resolution of your action that bowed, destroyed, or moved a Personality who has opposed this card at the current battlefield: Gain 2 Honor.
Just want to calrify that this is a legal play.
Unit A is defending with an attached Hida Defenders. Player B plays a card that sends home Unit A. Player A (Controlled Unit A) then plays a battle action that bows one of Player B's personalities that was oppossing Unit A before he sent home. Can Player a then use the reaction on the Hida Defenders that is attached in Unit A?
