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.

Lol not to be an argumentative bastard, but we don't have a GREAT look at Minamoto's. It might not be a real laser sword. And to prove I'm not just giving you a hard time, I 100% agree with you on the gloomy (even depressing) gameplay of SW1.

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.

KOEI should use this particular franchise to exploit it and experiment by doing so. I would dislike to see any of these lightsaber weapons in a Dynasty Warriors game, though. It's acceptable enough to me in Warriors Orochi and should stay there. But lets face it; DW has never been realistic.

Alright, alright, alright. Maybe it IS a lightsaber. Still, it doesn't bother me too much. I'd RATHER see a real weapon, but I'm so thrilled by new characters in general, I don't even care if they suck. However...I hope they have at LEAST one more. 89 characters would bother me...make it a even 90. (Wow I sound spoiled.)

If he joins Wei then he will be my favourite character for sure. :P
He better not have a VA like Ranmaru or Mitsuhide <_< They will just ruin him....

I think Yoshitsune will have an awesome fight with Kiyomori,since Kiyomoro killed Minamoto no Yoshitomo (the father of Yoshitsune and Yoritomo) he will avenge his father's death :) .

I just can't shake the feeling that he'll befriend Ma Chao or Musashi.

She probably knows so much, because he's a historical figure who...has a past...from..the past. Thus everything he did..is the past. And we can learn from...the past.

And even though I think Benkei will be the last addition, his brother would not be as bad.

They did fight each other after Yoritomo decided to usurp the imperial power, and Yoshitsune lost. So a whole good brother vs. bad brother thing wouldn't be that far fetched.

Am i alone in thinking that all these kick ass new characters are gonna dominate the game and again we'll have a dozen or so of the old guard there simply to make up numbers :huh:

Cool look though, and i couldnt care less if his weapon is realistic or not as long as its great to play with (please not another Da Ji). Thats 5 new characters for the game - thats beginning to make me thing the impressive Orochi series is here to stay in the long run.

As a sidenote im taking it that Yoshitsune is most likely to be a "baddie" type character personality wise

Seems to not be a popular belief, but here's a ^5 for hoping.

A little thing called history <_<

Any way.... he looks awsome but i'm alittle unsure about the gundam weapon <_<

Outfit looks great, have a feeling he will fight with Fu Xi, Nu Wa and the Fishingrod-guy-whos-name I-forget

I just have three things to say, really..

1. I predict a 'lightsaber' fight between Nobunaga and this dude; not just because both of them have lightsaber-like weapons, but because Nobunaga is a descendant of the Taira, and Yoshitsune finding that out might provoke a fight...Then again, Nobunaga isn't exactly fond of his ancestors either, so who knows?

2. Yoshitsune reminds me more of Nagamasa from Sengoku Basara than anyone else right now...mostly because I'd never seen Saint Seiya XD

3. I think it's okay to have a futuristic weapon or two in Warriors Orochi. Orochi bends time to give himself a battleground, so it's not so farfetched to believe that a small rip from the future opens as a side effect letting some futuristic artifacts in. WO is Koei's way of breaking the mold...I mean, they've done games mostly around the same basic storyline (Sangoku and Sengoku) for over a decade now, perhaps longer. Let them exercise their creative muscles in the side series, and expect the historical aspects from the main series ^^;

Yeah another new character ^^ Minamoto no Yoshitsune looks like a knight from Saint Seiya (as some others ones said too) but his looks is great with nice hair, yellow armour, cool style, typicaly Japanese lol :P
He seems to be an excellent adds, now we see the look (he seems to be charismatic), hope his moveset will be good too ^^
Thanks for the news & the infos about him !! ^^

He...
Looks...
Kinda like...
A Jedi Cao Ren.
I always wanted a lightsaber in a warriors game y'know.(Even though Nobunaga's did give me some joy, his is pure energy.)

He does look cool....even though I didn't expect the saber.
I'm beginning to like Warriors Orochi even more than before now.
My favorite giant sword wielding swordsman is back.
And now this guy.

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


Hm... Cao Ren's weapon with a light sticking out, Akechi's face and armor with Ma Chao's helm and hair, I cant shake off the feeling that there is some Zhao Yun in him.
