The Samurai Body is one of the Body-Types available to the Ridepod. Its in-game description reads "Torso part made to look like a samurai of the East." The Samurai Body is the improvement over the Wooden Box Body, but it barely increases the Ridepod's defence, providing 19 Points of Armor instead of 18. As you may guess, the Samurai Body just look pretty combined with the Samurai Arms. The Body-Type can only be made via the Make menu, and you'll be able to do so in Chapter 3, as one ideas can only be found from this point of the game.
