I've heard conflicting opinions about how good SW's title character is. Some say he was terrific, while other say he is to Japan what Guan Yu is to China.

And for the love of Guan, don't say "He's good. Why else would he have a hot ninja helping him?" If you do, Honda and I will smite you.

Heroic.

I think that last line should say "Zhao Yun = Yukimura", to some extent, at least.

In gameplay, he charged Ieyasu's camp with himself [and a few men], right?

That's cool. But I really have the urge of voting that last vote.

Unless you can prove to me that Yukimura did indeed go drunk while protecting a supply depot.

Yukimura:

1600-1614
During the battle of Sekigahara, he was captured and exiled for 14 years. He lived far away from any human contact. His Jyuushi (10 braves) were constantly informing him of the Tokugawa movements and the political sturggle.

1614
It is the the Siege of Osaka. Yukimura stuns the land by returning to the side of the Toyotomi. He even went on to build the Sanada-Maru, which would repel the Tokugawa for a very long time.

1615
The Toyotomi are losing, badly. The Sanada-Maru has fallen, Yukimura has practically been obliterated. During the final stages of the Siege, Yukimura realizes all of this. They have no hope of winning. So, what does this Samurai do? Yukimura and the Sanada Jyuushi charge straight towards Ieyasu's main camp. Though he almost died numerous occasions during the charge, Yukimura finally reached Ieyasu's main camp and got within striking distance of Ieyasu.


Excuse my french, but Yukimura is Bad-ASS. >_>

Don't forget about Ueda. I heard he was important there...

I'd say Yukimura~Zhao Yun or Wen Yang.

You mean when he flooded Ieyasu's men [in SW]?

But, just for the record, I'll say this:

He's good, but that doesn't mean that he needs that hot yet extremely annoying Ninja girl with him. He could just dump her whenever.

"Kunoichi is teh hotzorz" jk.

Yukimura was good, but Nobufusa and Tadakatsu were stronger. They lived longer and accomplished more, but then again, Yukimura's age only stretches so far....

Was Sanada Yukimura a historical character? I've only found a biography of Sanada Masayuki...

Edit: Nvm, I read his bio and found he had a son named Yukimura or Nobushige

They did over do Kunoichi's character in the game, but the only reason she has to stay with Yukimura is because of that little rumor thing about how there was always a kunoichi that followed him around...Oo...that's straying off Yukimura.

Well, not much I can say as TK has already covered that. Truly a magnificent general.

The fact that he came within striking distance of Ieyasu speaks volumes about Yukimura.

True, and he was named after Shingen's brother Takeda Nobushige, since Yukimura had that same strenght and brave what Nobushige had.

I wouldn't compare Zhao Yun to Yukimura at all. Zhao Yun saved Liu Chan at Chang Ban and served Shu loyally. Yukimura did much more than that, I would definitely call him as "A True Hero of Sengoku Jidai". His performance at Osaka is already enought to proof it, since he fought so bravely there. It's even said that Tokugawa Ieyasu became fearful of Yukimura when he only heard his name.

Not only at Osaka, but he also did well at Ueda together with his father by holding Tokugawa Hidetaka's 50,000 troops with only few thousands.

Chunyu Qiong>Yukimura....lol....

I voted for Decent, but not as great as they say. I think that he was a good warrior but personally I think that his father is underrated. Masayuki was largely responsible for holding back Hidetada at Ueda and was really Shingen's right hand-man. I like Yukimura but I like Masayuki better.

Wow...3 people voted for Chunyu Qiong>Yukimura. Are you guys just Chunyu Qiong fans or is there any particular reason why you dislike Sanada?

He was a real warrior and died a warrior's death. He had a lot courage to charge into Tokugawa's camp after the battle was, for all purposes, lost.

Sanada is decent but not as great as they say... I'm surprise for Chunyu Qiong>Yukimura got 3 votes, this ain't good...

Also to whom who said the annoying ninja girl, she's now removed in SW2, so no more annoying ninja girl around :D :D

I'm still laughing when seeing "Chunyu Qiong>Yukimura." got 3 votes, OMG who voted that!? LOL :lol:

I dunno how you people cant say that Yukimura coming within STRIKING distance of Ieyasu isnt enough to make him a legend.

True but he does die before he could attack Ieyasu. Killing Ieyasu would have immortalised him in history as a true legend. He advised Toyotomi Hideyori to join the fighting but Hideyori refuses

Sanada Yukimura was reffered to as Nobushige, why I have no Idea.(for the 1 page).

Well Toyotomi Hideyori only left the battlefield and did not charge because of stupid Ohna, Sanada Yukimura is a true Legend, isn't enough that he never once betrayed his lord.
So many times Sanada Yukimura would have been killed but no even Meada Keiji saved his life at Nagashino, Sanada Yukimura defied everything except for his lord and allies.
The fact that he basically single handely charged Tokugawa Ieyasu's camp and camne within striking distance isn't enough for you people, then don't expect to be ever sattisfied.
I for one believe Sanada Yukimura is worthy of the title Immortal Legend.

Do you know the difference between games and real history?

Hint: Yukimura was eight years old when Nagashino happened.
