Main Characters


User Image
Date Masamune
Dokuganryu of Oshu. Masamune is brash and cocky, wielding six katana with ease. Missing one eye from an early age.



User Image
Sanada Yukimura
Follower of Takeda Shingen. Short-tempered and naive, Yukimura will not hesitate when it comes to fighting for the honour of his lord.



User Image
Maeda Keiji
A happy-go-lucky kabukimono. Keiji's life philosophy in life is all about love, despite being one of the strongest if not the strongest samurai around.



User Image
Oda Nobunaga
Considered the main villain, Nobunaga is ruthless and will stop at nothing to accomplish his goals.



User Image
Katakura Kojuurou
Retainer to the Date clan, and Masamune's right hand man. Kojuurou often makes up for the sense of responsibility that Masamune lacks.



User Image
Sarutobi Sasuke
Member of the Sanada Ten Braves, serving Yukimura and Shingen by extension. Easy going and sly, Sasuke is good at what he does but generally doesn't take it too seriously.



User Image
Takeda Shingen
The Tiger of Kai. A pillar of strength, Shingen's power is used as often against his allies as it is against his foes.



User Image
Kasuga
Shinobi serving the Uesugi clan. Initially assigned to assasinate Kenshin, she has grown into his most loyal (and fanatic) subject.



User Image
Uesugi Kenshin
Daimyo of Echigo. Cool and refined, Kenshin believes the power of Bishamonten will lead him to victory.



User Image
Nouhime
Wife of Nobunaga. The lady with the butterfly tattoo, Nouhime's loyalty is firm despite being not cared much for by her husband.



User Image
Mori Ranmaru
Attendant of Nobunaga. Ranmaru is fiercely loyal to Nobunaga despite his youth.



User Image
Akechi Mitsuhide
Samurai and general under Nobunaga. A man whose cruelty knows no bounds.



User Image
Mouri Motonari
Daimyo of west Chuugoku. A cold and calculating man who does not tolerate failure.

Chousokabe Motochika
The oni of Shikoku. The pirate-like Motochika has a crew that supports him through thick and thin, to the point of calling him "aniki."



User Image
Azai Nagamasa
Daimyo of Oumi. Nagamasa is a gung-ho and positive type, with in-law problems that run deeper than most.



User Image
Oichi
Wife of Nagamasa, and sister of Nobunaga. Melancholy and defensive, Oichi often finds herself torn between the ambitions of her husband and her brother.



User Image
Honda Tadakatsu
General under Ieyasu. Tadakatsu is an unfeeling machine, whose main feature is strength.

Tokugawa Ieyasu
Daimyo of Mikawa. A tiny but determined leader, Ieyasu has Tadakatsu to aid with his ambitions.

Sorry for the inconvenience. But damn it, I want to discuss Basara without our posts being eaten. gonk

In happier news, the Pizza Hut site is up. xd
http://www.pizzahut.jp/whatsnew/113_090511_basara/

The image of Basara characters eating pizza is still hilarious. Pizza Hut pizza to go with their Masamune beer. pirate
Lol, don't forget eating the Sengoku Basara Rice and Sengoku Basara Fish Paste while riding the Sengoku Basara Tour Bus.

And yeah, Pizza Hut has some weird campaigns, like with Code Geass and Darker than Black.

Anyways, back to the show. It's great over-the-top action that just works so well for me. Animation and sound are also great.

It's funny, though. I never did like Devil Kings.

Sengoku Basara Fish Paste!

It'll make you want to put handlebars on your horse!
Wow, I've never seen those other Sengoku Basara products. XD [I've only seen the Beer and Pizza hut, lol.]

Anyway, still waiting for the subs of the episode 7. xd

Devil Kings isn't Sengoku Basara, though. dramallama It's the shell of Basara with all of the personality removed, haha. gonk

Anyway. Episode seven was kind of boring to me. Maybe just the lack of Keiji. xd Seeing the shinigami at the end was entertaining, though. whee I appreciate it when the games are directly referenced. I have to wonder how far Hisahide will pull things off track for the Nobunaga plot, though.
lol...

That and how they poke fun at other anime series and conventions.

Masamune's soldiers are, by far, my favorite. Handlebar Horses make me laugh every time xD

The real Date Masamune was open-minded towards cultures other than his own, so that's probably what it's referencing. He's supposed to be seen as that kind of crazy guy with his reckless ways and wild ideas. *nods*

And I'm pretty sure horses didn't have tailpipes in the sengoku period either. xd You're missing the point. This series pays homage to history; it doesn't portray history perfectly.
