“Ben Gallina explodes onto the scene: Bass Warrior! No one does not know him. He wanders from place to place seeking audiences worthy of his "Six Differences" style! You cannot defeat him! His dojo is supreme! He does not fear the shogun but the shogun fears him! His brain is infected by devils! When Ben plays the bass the foundation panics! He can make you do a panic dance with one note! If he unleashed his full powers the world would explode! Do not look directly into the bass when he plays or you will go blind and be infected by devils!"
-Saburo Taiso, 2007
