Hmmm...

Kunoichi:- Never liked her. She was annoying, laughed when she died and wasn't based off a real person.
No: She lost her excellent story from SW1 but although difficult to utilise, her moveset is fun and rewarding to those who take time to master it. Her venomous personality is great too
Oichi:- I just can't stand her. Shes too... goody goody and uses a kendama >:(
Okuni:- She's fun but not effective in battle
Ina:- Shes awesome. Fun moveset and cool weapon. Story is very bland though
Nene:- Annoying at times but cool attacks and certainly a step-up from Kunoichi IMO <_<
Ginchiyo:- Serious warrior, but a little too manly for my liking
Gracia:- Looks fun... but I just don't think I can take her seriously

Definatly No! She pwns the other female warriors (like in her Gaiden) :lol:

fixed ;)


*cough*Kunoichi > Nene*cough*



I still stand by my earlier choices, though Ginchiyo's really grown on me.

Shes still after Kunoichi, Ina and Nene, but very close.

Kunoichi is definatly my favourite of them though, Ina close behind. Only personality desided that ;)

No need to fix my post
The poll speaks for itself XP

I'm not being arguementative but can you tell me why you like Kunoichi?
I just dont understand the appeal...
Seriously... It's beyond me. Annoying voice and no historical relavance...
Was it her moveset? I dont remember it being out of the ordinary...

Now this is a hard choice. Ina and Kunoichi being 2 of my favourite female characters in the games.

In SW1(XL), I prefered Kunoichi to Ina, but in SW2 Ina was great. I don't really know.

I will probably go for Kunoichi though.
She had great interaction with other characters, unlike most characters in SW2...though some have good interaction it isn't really the same...
Then also, her moveset was just great. I mean, it was a bit fast to use at times, but overall was 1 of the best in the game if you could use it. Got worse in WO IMO though... -_-

Then theres her personallity...though annoying at times (along with her voice...I hated her laugh ;)) she was funny and at some points got serious which was good. It was good seeing her character development, more so in Hanzo's campaign, but it was still shown.

and the ninja rivalry between those 2 was great :lol:

so, yeah, I vote for Kunoichi

this explains some of it.

I did like her moveset, yes, but it wasn't too great. Still great for SW1 though to me.

I generally just liked the character ;)


I personally don't play a game or a character based on historical relevance.
That is part of the reason I like Yukimura as much as I do (historical stuff), but thats besides the point ;)



Also, the poll shows more people like Nene, doesn't mean shes better :rolleyes:

I voted for Gracia, her story is nice and I like cheerful female character. I don't understand people complain about her story, it really good IMO.

moveset wise, she the most broken special hand down, some people say her suck just because they use her the wrong way <_<

i can't believe i voted, but never commented here?

anyhow~all of them but Nene.

each of the ladies has an appeal for me. but if i had to pick:

Lady Noh~ historically and gamewise quite enigmatic and interesting. how does one deal with a man and allow what she did? however due to some personal insight in my own life, i find such a thing is possible. she was, of course, said to be unaccountably beautiful and knowing, well rounded and well-read. whatever the truth about the Lady, she's so complex to me, that i can't help but love her. the first video game character i ever REALLY identified with, at least in SW1. bi-polar, perhaps.

i love her moveset, and it really did'nt change much from SW1 to SW2. she looks amazing in both, i prefer the top half of her from SW2, the bottom half from SW1. her claws are perfect for her personality, easily my favorite KOEI character ever. let's hope in SW3 she gets her assassin story back, because factual or not(and none of the stories are 100% factual) it was alot more fun.

AND

Kunoichi~i thought it was actually pretty inspired for KOEI to make her the embodiment of the Ten Sanada Braves, i LIKE symbolism and allegory. i did'nt care that she was'nt historically accurate, i'm no Purist. she was just cool. she gave Yuki a softer side and foil to his seriousness, that made him more likeable. no, her moveset was nothing special, but i tend to prefer the characters that are flawed and take so doing to master. she was just alot of fun.

and, why don't i like Nene? she's a poor-man's Kunoichi. why does it matter if she existed historically, if she was none of the things she is portrayed as in the game. she WAS NOT a kunoichi, Hideyoshi did not favor her in any way, she was a mean-spirited gossip and liar historically. and her bad mom-hair and impossibly twee personality make her even worse. her moveset was what Kunoichi's would've been, had she made it to SW2. just not a very good choice in my eyes for a new female character. a copied movest from a another character and historically no more relevant than the fictional Kunoichi. just my opinion.

like i said: just my opinion. i've also stated that i would'nt want Kunoichi to return. i'd rather have the real kunoichi, Lady Chiyome. no need to be unpleasant.

I never get bored of using Nohs moveset and whilst she if fun playwise she also has a decent personality for a Koei female character and is well designed to boot (pretty, loyal and deadly - what more could Nobonaga want?)

My favourite would also have to be the Lady Kicho!
Only in SW1, in SW2 while her moveset was gone, her voice and personality left way to much to be desired...
However what she was in SW1 makes her get my vote..

Her sultry voice (Mary Elizabeth McGlynn is genious!) that hit the character right on, Her enigmatic personality, i even loved her moveset, her laugh was cool as well and she is one of the reasons i go back to play SW1!

I think i have said enough ;P

I don't believe i have any problems with the SW Females... Coming in a close second would be Ina (i preferred SWXL but SW2 is still mighty fine!) followed by Nene and Kunoichi...

I actually preferred it when she had the "I love him, but I will kill him" story in SW1... Not exactly 100% loyal :lol:
But I agree elsewhere ^_^

Yea her voice was better in SW1. It was more... malicious and womanly
And her snigger at the end of her C4 attack gave me chills
SW2 made her sound somewhat cute and girly IMO

My favorite female character in Samurai Warriors is Oichi. Her skills on the battlefield prove that she's more than just a pretty face. However, the only thing that irks me about her is how she always gives in to fate so easily.

OICHI FTW! Yeah, she's Oda's Sister (which gives her a bonus). Also, she's one of my strongest female chars too.

Don't forget she's cute :P

I find most of them quite annoying now, but for personality & movesets & looks combined it's between Ginchiyo (even though her musou is AWFUL) and Noh.

I like pretty much all of them to some extent, apart from Gracia and Oichi...who just....ugh.

It's kind of unfortunate actually. I really love to see empowered women, but koei hasn't really seemed to offer me much in that area. Most of the women in these games are not taken very seriously. Kunoichi is definitely my favorite, because at least she is strong, and can keep up with Hanzo, haha!

But yeah, then we have...

Nouhime-dono: uses claws that she pulls from her kimono, and bombs. I find that hard to take seriously. =(
Oichi-dono: uses a cup and ball...enough said.
Okuni-dono: uses an umbrella, and despite being completely up to the task of defeating the male characters, she still uses an umbrella to kill people.
Ina-dono: uses a bow, yet always comes off as being really hesistant, and never seems to be quite as fierce as her father. Though, she is one of the strongest of the females, so I can't say I am displeased. =)
Nene: uses two daggers, yet comes off as Hideyoshi's 'naggy wife'.
Ginchiyo-dono: I am quite pleased with her, but as far as her personality goes, it seems like koei always tries to make her seem weak at times, which I don't like. Why can't she be as firm as Tadakatsu?
Gracia-dono: uses a magical bracelet, and despite being one of the most amazingly powerful characters, her look and weapon are just lacking seriousness.

So all in all, I would like to see some more truly strong women in these games. Women need more power, I think, and that goes for works of fiction as well.
