A little bit biased on JP character design in my opinion but he looks really cool and a bit over with the lightsaber (what the hell all the samurai warriors get such cool weapons and dynasty warriors get things just like a fishing rod) and yeah I like him!

*pushes Zhao Yun over*
*pushes Ma Chao over*
*pushes Sun Ce over*
*pushes Zhou Yu over*
*pushes Gan Ning over*
*pushes Ling Tong over*
*pushes Nagamasa over*
*pushes Mitsunari over*
*pushes Katnesugu over*
*pushes Mitsuhide over*

Ok he looks really cool but maybe a bit too futuristic, considering he lived about 400 years before the other Samurai Warriors! BUT lol I always wanted a lightsaber user in the Warriors series should be fun and I guess this game isn't taking itself to seriously.

Definitely one of my more anticipated characters right now.

:lol: :lol: :lol: Agree, Chin! He's certainly the pretties boy now! I think Koei think Chinese characters are too ancient to give them flash and fancy weapons! :P

I would expect him to be the favorite for many people here now. And obviously I would expect him to have moves such as Nagamasa's R1 beam from Warriors Orochi(futuristic as DarkDante said), and to swing his weapon like a Gundam(yay BK!) or like Nobunaga(his musou style.)

Not Nobunaga... maybe Gan Ning! Nobunaga's musou is too hard to control. Or he can have Nene's style (throwing the weapon and it comes back like a boomerang). SO he can be a real Jedi ^_^

Some may like him but many could hate him too. I couldn't even think a move for Yoshitsune... Moves matter too

Guess what? I predicted he would come. Since Kiyomori was in, naturally he would be in too right? Or it would have been Yoritomo also.

WHAT NOW? They gonna add the roster from the Genji Series?! Benkei Musashibo?

He still looks like several parts of different warriors cut out and pasted onto a template and recolored, to me.

His helmet is the only thing that, to me, looks perfectly unique. Perhaps the things jutting out of his shoulder pads as well.

However, he was a good character to add, and his weapon should be cool.

Edit-Benkei would be cool, Crimson. Personally, I'd say Tomoe Gozen might be a good add as well.

Agree with you on that one Slick.

EDIT: It's like part Ma Chao, Zhao Yun, Sima Yi and Zhuge Liang with Shingen's hair all bunched up into one with a colour change. Also Tomoe Gozen would be an awesome choice for a female warrior addition!

I wonder how his other weapons will look like considering his blade is well a beam. Will his second weapon simply be a purple lightsaber? His 3rd a green and his final weapon a red one?

I think the headband is Ishida inspired, the lightsaber looks like it's coming out of a Cao Ren style buckler blade, the chin strap is similar to Date Masamune's, and...I could probably find more examples as well. It looks like he just has too much equipped, because it seems as if Koei mashed a bunch of stuff together and made that bunch of stuff Minamoto Yoshitsune.

When I first saw the head gear, I actually thought it was one of those kabuto renditions, actually. O_o;

A bit too futuristic for my taste. So I'm guessing it will be either his brother or Benkei will be the last addition.

Benkei being the most logical IMO.

I like his appearance very much. He looks like a real samurai. But his weapon is just dumb. Why make a lightsaber for someone who lived around 800 years ago?

I'm not gonna lie, I love his black flowing hair. Looks badass. He belongs in a metal band. As for the "lightsaber", I think it fits well. I mean we all know Koei games are BASED of history, but are NOT historical. It IS a fictional world.

People who complain about "futuristic" stuff in a game that consists of about 89 people who can each use magic in one way or another, kill 1,000s of troops without being killed themselves, trying to save the world from a time warping God needs to take a little bit closer look at the games and realize that this weapon is a SMALL detail that actually DOES fit in fine.

Lol Yes sensei. Regardless I DO love his hair. It's like a smexy version of Zhang Jiao's DW6 hair style.

Point taken about the "futuristic" comment Ryan.

But there was a sense when KOEI first made these games that they set some historical precedent. From the generics of DW2, before items were introduced. To SW1 with its classic Japanese music and gloomy/we're hopless stages.

And Nobunaga wields a glowing sword everyone, not an actual lightsaber. Its still at least a sword.

Very true bro, very true. But I think KOEI figures since they are already making some crazy weapons like fishing rods and a giant rosary, then why not have a light saber. :P But none the less, I do like his design and can't wait to see him fight. I do hope that the next character is Chinese though.

I can already see my next experimental WO team ...

Minamoto no Yoshitsune
Oda Nobunaga
Tachibana Ginchiyo

Nobunaga only "appeared" to have a lightsaber, Yoshitsune actually wields one :ph43r: and Ginchiyo has a lightning sword.

I'm going to love playing as this character ^_^
