Since he fell into one of the 109 cursed springs, he turns into a girl when in contact with cold water, an embarrassing situation that doesn’t seem to displease him as much as he says. Indeed, he and his father could have easily cured their illness by diving into the “Nannichuan” (source of man) when they were in training at Jusenkyô, but they did not do so and even continued to train under their “second appearance”.
