The Bushidō code is typified by seven virtues:
Rectitude (義,gi)
Courage (勇,yuu)
Benevolence (仁,jin)
Respect (礼,rei)
Honesty (誠,sei)
Honor (誉,yo)
Loyalty (忠,chuu)

I'd say we do pretty well for ourselves.

Soyokaze would be Benevolence, Compassion. ("They help their fellow men at every opportunity. If an opportunity does not arise, they go out of their way to find one.")

Yahata would be Righteousness. ("Believe in justice, not from other people, but from yourself.")

Kuroi would be Honor. ("Warriors have only one judge of honor and character, and this is themselves. Decisions they make and how these decisions are carried out are a reflection of who they truly are. You cannot hide from yourself.")

Akihito would be Heroic Courage. ("Hiding like a turtle in a shell is not living at all. A true warrior must have heroic courage. It is absolutely risky. It is living life completely, fully and wonderfully. Heroic courage is not blind. It is intelligent and strong.")

Dai Jin would be Duty, Loyalty. ("Warriors are responsible for everything that they have done and everything that they have said and all of the consequences that follow. They are immensely loyal to all of those in their care. To everyone that they are responsible for, they remain fiercely true.")

Hama would be Honesty. ("When warriors say that they will perform an action, it is as good as done. Nothing will stop them from completing what they say they will do. They do not have to 'give their word'. They do not have to 'promise'. Speaking and doing are the same action.")

I'm mainly going off of Wikipedia and obviously the characters don't fit perfectly into these and there is overlap and interpretation as they weren't made specifically with these concepts in mind. But at least I got something interesting to think about out of it.
I tend to agree with this assessment,on the whole. While my intention was to just call us something cool sounding&theme appropriate(you gotta admit,it IS a cool sounding name.It'd also be something that Nobunaga might call them,as he was very big on Pomp&PR...),we DO tend to fit these rather unintentionally... :)

It is good of us to have a some actual, normal humans around, even if yokai and hanyou act as this setting's "superhumans".

While INT - means she can't make decisions, it also means she doesn't make bad decisions. Unlike most of us.
