Me and Luxun1985 were talking about how many charactersitics were shared by characters of both and we came across very many. Here's some of what we got.

Zhao Yun = Yukimura
same weapon, same "hero" type role,

Zhou yu = Mitsuhide
similar weapons, both considered the pretty boy, same VA

Zhou Tai = Hanzo
both have a sort of "Shredder" costume, both say very little, both are considered as guardians of their allegiences

Cao Cao = Nobunaga
same VA, both very influencial leaders historically, both somewhat considered villainous, similar weapons

Zhen Ji = Noh
both very sexy, have the same facial features, both much more vicious than they appear

Xu Huang = Kenshin
both have an extremly high sense of nobility, both have a white turban, both have very large weapons

Xiao Qiao = Oichi
both are the youngest, extremely annoying voices

Lu Xun = Masamune
both are young warriors, both have dual-wielded a pair of swords, similar voices

Well, these aren't all of them. I can't remember the rest of them right now, though. You guys see how many you can come up with.

Yukimura uses trident and Zhao Yun normal spear... that's not the same weapon :o.

Kunoichi = Sun Shang Xiang
Both are the most horrible characters ever made by Koei, they suck in everything. After you have played with them, it's hard to believe that great game company such as Koei manages to make such an horrible characters.

Honda Tadakatsu = Lu Bu
Both are really arrogant and only seem to care about their might. They both also wield huge polearms.

Hideyoshi Toyotomi = Liu Bei
Personalities and looks are different, but they had the same goal, to make a world better place to live.

Shingen Takeda = Zhuge Liang
Wise strategist, but eventually, their descendants weren't able to live up to them.

Magoichi Saika = Ling Tong
Guys, who know when to take easy and always seem to have fun.

My friend, don't be so selective of my words. Yukimura uses a yari. Yari come in many different forms. One blade, two, and (like Yukimura's) three. But the only thing that really matters is that yari is the Japanese term for spear universally. Zhao Yun also has a spear. They both have spears, and therefore they both have the same weapon. Jiang Wei is the only Koei warrior that has a trident.

Can't argue with those, but the arrogant part between Honda and Lu Bu, I just can't agree with that; unless I missed something I don't see any arrogance in Tadakatsu's character at all. Which is more than I can say for Lu Bu. :P

That's true. While both are very large, strong, and have HUGE pole arms, Honda isn't so vain. Especially when compared to Lu Bu.

Fine, it's yari with three blades (yes, it has three blades like Jiang Wei's trident) and Zhao Yun only has one. So... I consider them as different weapons. The only same thing is, that they both are polearms ;).

You could always play his Story mode in SWXL and see how he keeps talking about his True Might. He doesn't seem to care from anything else, expect for his loyalty towards his master.

I think a yari might be slightly different than a spear actually and some variations of it were so different than a spear that they can only be categorized as pole arms and not specifically as spears. There were for instance spears with side blades to dismount horses and then there were really hella long spears, such as the ones Nobunaga employed in his army (with a nearly 18 foot long shaft), that were basically like pikes.

Look, I'm ending this argument. A yari is a type of spear. Now, similarities in the DW/SW characters.

I intended it to be just DW to SW. That's why JMD's post seems cynical to me. <_<

I agree with the above statement. They both have the same voice and it's very obvious.

Yeah but they're both pretty hot. Also Kunoichi has an excellent musou attack, in fact her musou is probably the best in the game and certainly the best to get a high score on Samurai Warriors 1 Musou Challenge Mode. Also it's just your opinion that they are horrible. I for one don't mind their duelist movesets that much. In fact on the versus mode that was added to Samurai Warriors: XL I beat my friend, who was playing Hanzo, as Kunoichi, mainly because I happened to be ok playing as her.

hmm, i think Sun Shang Xiang is more like Nene rather than Kunoichi in terms of character design. But don't blame me if i'm wrong cos i haven't got the chance to play SW2.

and Ina can be compared to Xing Kai. both are the daughter of the great warrior. but that's just my opinion, though. :D

Especially since Honda Tadakatsu actually once got the nickname of "The Zhang Fei of the Sengoku-Jidai era." Well according to Alex anyways...

Yes, he did. He got that title because during Kanegasaki, he repelled the Asakura army on a bridge. I heard that Nobunaga himself gave him that nickname.

Similar to why Takenaka Hanbei was named Kongming of Sengoku; it is also said that Hideyoshi had to visit his home several times until Hideyoshi was able to meet him.

Apart from being visited a lot by Hideyoshi, Hanbei doesn't really deserve such a title, imo...

They're everything else except hot :(. Sorry, but that's a fact. No, Kunoichi has worst Musou attack in SW. It certainly doesn't deal high damage, even if you have equipped good items and got all necessary skills with her, it's still quite horrible. Ok, it's good in Musou Challenge because enemies die in one hit, but I find Yoshimoto and Nobunaga better in it, they just have much faster Musou.

I believe you just were quite fortunate in that duel and your friend was just inexperienced ;). If you faced an expert SW player as Kunoichi, well you would lose, no matter how good player you were.

Kunoichi and Sun Shang Xiang are most horrible characters ever made by Koei. I can't do nothing about it, because it's a fact :(.
