I haven't played Himiko yet but she's adorable and in vs mode.... an effective killer. >=D Possibly some spoilers If my japanese is right... She calls Daji Neesan or Sister. As evident from the Shu storyline where she shouts "Daji-neesan o Kaishite(sic)!!" In that shrill voice of hers. Its kinda ingrained in my mind now. >_< In shu 2nd last stage, Himiko was used to summon Orochi as Kiyomori did say "The time as come" or something like that as he closed the door. Himiko was floating at the back. So this shows that she's some kind of a medium. That's all I know about her. Not much there... =_= |

I pretty sure either on can be used. My knowledge of Japanese anime is little but they use One-chan or Nee-san from what I remember. (Yes I'm taking about anime but it's the same thing in video games.) I think you can use both...although I heard nee-san only from brother to brother and one-chan from either sister to sister or sister to brother (Oichi in SW). Maybe Nee-san can work sister to sister like that. |

what would you call Himiko's weapon 'magic turrets'? its easy to describe but giving it a name is harder, do they already have a name? (not as in what they are called for her, but as in spear, sword etc) i think she is was a necessary addition to the game, isn't her moveset a mix of DW C1-C6 and SW Charge type characters, because i've seen her movelist and it is a quite a bit longer than some |

Her moveset is just a SW charge moveset. I've seen videos of her in action and she seems to be really powerful with her ranged attacks, she seems close to be top-tier material from what I have seen. |

She probably going to be my favourite female character.... I like it how Koei made a character like her with a good move set.... Normally Koei makes rubbish move set for female characters for example Da Qiao and Noh move set ain't that impressive like hers.... |

They decided to make this little brat break EVERY projectile rule, for whatever reason. I don't see why she gets to stun enemies with her screen-clearing projectiles, while Zhou Tai, Mitsuhide and Mitsunari are stuck with moves that no longer stun enemies. One of the many reasons why I can't stand her. |

I think she was a good addition to the game because she is Japanese and she did have Relations to the Kingdom Of Wei. Its like she is in between DW and SW. |

In the first shu stage if you play as himiko she will talk with dong zhou (don't know how to spell) and in the last wei stage she will talk with orochi. Can anyone tell me what they were said. |

Magic Clay Dolls, perhaps? Given that she's basically a mini Da Ji, I'd imagine her english weapn names will be pretty similar to that of Da Ji's ORBS OF TEH ULTIMATE DOOOOOOOOOOM! This is exactly why they should bring back the weapon naming system from SW1XL. But i guess WO2 has enough added tidbits and extras in it anyway. |

i'm actually really impressed with her floating Dogu Heads. I was hoping she would look alot more mature and sophisticated. But whatever, I guess her look will have to do. |

Yeah, Koei kinda has a tendency to make their female characters a bit underaged. The Qiaos, Oichi, Kunoichi, Nene,... and now Himiko. But she looks like a great character, and fun to use. Now there's something you don't see everyday from Koei It is just me, or is Koei scraping the bottom of the weapon barrel. First 2 floating balls, then a fishing rod, then rosary beads, a light saber, Dogu heads,... (not that i'm complaining, mind you. I'm just wondering what's going to be next). Himiko's a fun character with a cool design and strange but good weapons. And she seems really powerful too, shooting enemies far away. Makes me wonder what she'll be like with Tenbu Too bad you can't hit enemies off screen, but that would make her completely broken. |

Poll Added Anyway Himiko seems like an interesting character to use, I'll reserve my final judgement until I have actually played the game. |

Tenbu-Almighty is a weapon enhancement (not an element) that causes all attacks to be elemental when Musou is full... Example: Put Speed Lv10 on Himiko's weapon with Tenbu and your Himiko attacks really quick... really, really quick with all of her attacks including her normal moveset |
