if Genma is the head of teh Saotome clan.

YOu are assumiing that Genma the head of the clan, there could be an overload or something, course we're never know.^_^

why does his wife have so much power?

Tech. Genma has all the power in the house, but his wife has that nasty blade that's she carries all teh time.

I mean Saotome is HIS family name not hers.

YOu're assuning again. IN acient time it wasn't unuasle for a person to be apoted, marry into a family, divorce and marry another, etc. It's all very compecated.

\>sure her clan might be rich and more powerfull and his clan may

Where did you get this from?

have a debt to her clan yet this wouldnt give her the sort of power many fanfic writers have given her.

Debt of honor, or what have you. Oh one mental note, it's wasn't that big a deal to break a egament, and make a new one. Happens all the time in medevil Japan. All policatal and all that.

Any one care to explain?

LOok above. ^_^
