Soun was running late to do his segment!

Soun. The comic relief of the anime. I love this silly S-O-B. There have been times where he has made me laugh so hard I started to bawl, just like Soun!
Soun is the father to Akane, Nabiki, and Kasumi. he is the owner of the Dojo and Genma's best friend. Soun's wife died when the kids were at a pretty early age. I am not sure exactly when it was, but I am willing to bet that Kasumi was 12 or 13. Soun hasn't really gotten over it. Anytime she is brought up Soun reverts into super-sobbing mode.
Soun also loves to hide when he's in trouble. Especially when that trouble involves his and Genma's master, Happosai. He knows that he should kick Happosai out of the house, but he's too scared.
Soun's Corner

I'm Soun Tendo. I'm also old. 

I am the father of Akane, Nabiki and Kasumi. I am also the owner and proprietor of the Tendo Dojo. I am a student of the Anything Goes School of Martial Arts. I made an arrangement with my old friend Genma that his son would marry one of my daughters so that the school would continue after we were gone.

Erin is right. I still get emotional when it comes to my dear departed wife. I miss her deeply. *Pause 46 seconds for sobbing*

Anyway, I don't turn into anything when wet, except for a wet Tendo! *Pause 11 seconds for uncontrollable laughter* I like playing Shoji with Saotome and helping my daughter Akane learn the art.

 

Sad Soun.
