- Cannot normally be overlayed over Bayushi Shoju (Inexperienced) because he is discarded when turned face up. [DW, 16 December 1997] Rules Archive, August 18, 2007, p. 93
- Q: If the Inexperienced Bayushi Shoju steals my cards and manages to put some permanently into play, does he get to keep them after the battle? A: Yes. Don't despair, they're not necessarily gone for good. Check the errata at the end of this FAQ. If you can manage to destroy them, they'll go into your discard pile, not his. By the way, there's a way to stop Shoju from taking your cards in the first place: don't defend against him. (Okay, so I didn't say it was a painless way...) Shoju can only swap with an "opposing player", which means a controller of an opposing unit. Legend of the Five Rings FAQ, Version 3.6.2, May 1998, p. 22
