Yeah, since both Taigong wang and Da Ji also came from the Zhou Dynasty so it's not really confusing. :)

Wow, then Orochi's time warp did some crazy ass damage to time and space than was stated.
Prepare for a laugh!

I find that hard to believe. He's easily one of the most broken characters in the game (5 Guardbreaks!) regardless of the mode.

He has 5 functional guardbreaking moves: C1 (GB), C6 (Grapple), C7 (Grapple), C8 (Last wave can't be blocked-I think) and his R1 (Grapple). And that's much more guardbreaks than most characters tend to have.

To add to that, he has one of the best ring out games out of all characters. Practically all his attacks will result in ring outs if done right against the wall. Personally, I think he's best played focusing on pushing his opponent out of the ring as he has an easier time than most characters knocking and throwing his opponents through walls. All you have to do is learn how to aim his grapples and attacks. He's an absolutely devastating adversary once you learn how to use and aim his grapples.

My friends absolutely hate me whenever I use him. And I have used him against Orochi, Tadakatsu, Keiji, Kiyomori, Himiko, and other powerful characters. Whenever I have Yoshitsune on my team, I rarely ever lose.

I guess I'm not that good using him since I have a total of 8X lost to my brother using him :(
Speaking of which is it me or is he a god with tenbu :blink:

Even though he is a Tech character, his attacks are as high as Pwr character. I think his R1 to upgrade his laser sword is very impressive. :)

I try hard not to call it a lightsaber. I use the term "Musou Blade" instead (it's Musou focused into a blade shape, right?).

I call it a celestial sword :lol: . In reference to Ushiwaka from Okami, who is actually the same person, who creates a sword of light from his flute.

I think Yoshitsune's weapon of choice is due to the myths that surround him. I remember reading myths describing Yoshitsune's sword as a ray of light whenever he attacked.

The problem with that is that Musou isn't really a noun of any sort. The characters that compose it is like Nothing and Twin. It's just a figurative way of saying Only one or unrivaled or something of the like.

The saber itself is just energy anyway so you can just apply something asian like Chi/Ki to it

I have a question. During my first mission as Yoshitsune, I swear, his Musou Blade turned red and grew really long....

How do I do that again? It was right when I took on the commander, and during the hectic chaos of me taking on 7 officers at once, I don't know how I did it..
I hereby vow, on March 4th, 2009, that if I encounter a spammer and lose twice in a row, my Brawl disc will be shattered to peices and I will have photographic proof. This will remain in my sig until said event happens.

You probably used his R1 attack and then got a 100 hit combo, as that's how it's activated.
Kick reason to the curb and do the impossible!

Yoshitsune 2nd costume looks like ones of the Mystics ? (Mystics --> Taigong Wang, Fu Xi & Nu Wa ?) Which one, please ? I didn't remember Taigong Wang or Nu Wa in Red costume, so maybe it's Fu Xi (I didn't change often his costume in game)

btw in game his rivalty with Kiyomori is just some lines in two or three battles, their rivalty story isn't very developped >_<

Are you referring to his 2ND costume (on the list), or his alternate one where his hair is down? I still prefer his standard costume, but the 3rd costume isn't so bad.


I wish they added Benkei or Shizuka Gozen into the story to accompany Yoshitsune. KOEI made him seem like a loner, going against Lu Bu and finding Kiyomori by himself :mellow: Oh well. At least he had Wu to aid him.
"I believe that everyone has prayed to God at least once.

Even though they might not believe, one day they will surely make an honest prayer.

Something that everyone is looking for.

Something that everyone is after.

Something that's created from everyone's continuous wish, and the bonds between them.

The thing that's created is ....

If Yoshitsune had comrades to associate himself with, it would've be an interesting character development. Maybe it would expand on his rivalry with Kiyomori as well.

It would interesting indeed, since Yoshitsune is perhaps the only introduced character with the least character development (except maybe Himiko or Kiyomori).

If Shizuka and Benkei were added to the WO2 roster, I'd soooooo have them as my team :lol:

I think his moveset is quite awesome - three different attacks that break through any guard, plus a massive glowing sword when you achieve a 100-hit combo (with R1).

His English voice isn't too bad, but I do prefer his Japanese voice.

He also seems to be attracted to Lu Bu in some way :blink:
lol

His "attraction" to Lu Bu is basically like Tadakatsu's in WO1.

It's probably because Lu Bu resembles Benkei in many ways.
