He doesn't have a video because it doesn't look like they are uploading videos of the old characters (Masamune and Yukimura being the exceptions due to being series posterboys). So I wouldn't hold out for a Hondam vid if I were you.

Kanbei looks BEASTLY! Maggie and Him are the 2 I am most hyped for in SB3. I'm glad he isn't super slow. His style seems to be like how Shimazu's is, where he is more of a high damage, fast killer character than a combo beast. I am perfectly fine with that ^__^. Also, that rolling powerbomb looks amazing.


I speculated on this before, but after watching the video am I the only one who thinks his S string looks similar to Itsuki's except with much more range? I should go play some SB2H and compare her s-string to the video. They seem similar at first but I could be wrong. I am just worried that if so, they might ax her if Kanbei is too similar gameplay wise and seeing as he is much more relevant to the story. Just gotta wait and see I guess.

I suspect his element is wind. I loved using Itsuki because of her Ice element.

Either way I am super hype for SB3, will buy day 1, and can't wait to play as Kanbei.


Edit: How could I be so forgetful in thanking Jsun for the HQ Youtube upload (How do you rip it from the site at such high quality anyways?) and NDY again for the translation.

just watched kanbei's vid,sometimes the weight of the ball looks pretty inconsistent(especially on the ball dropkick~side roll cancel trick),it should've stayed heavy all the time....

and its a bit funny that despite his "young" looks in SB,he talks like a geezer(using "ja" instead of "da")

God, this made my day. Kurokan looks fantastic, just as I knew he would. Just as I suspected, he's a wind user which is obvious when you look at the special moves he uses especially the FAB(Final Atomic Buster, which has one of the most appropriate abbreviations I've ever typed) where it summons up a whirlwind in the final stage of the attack. The down time after the last hit in his S-string worries me a bit, but I'm sure you can fix that by canceling into one of his special moves. Also I really love his personality. Overall I can't wait to play as Kurokan.

So, now we have two weeks to Tsuru's video. Gotta say that I really like that we are able to see when the video will be put up even though it's a pattern now. Feels nice to be sure.

Edit: Oh sorry, I forgot to thank Jsun for putting it up on the channel and NDY for the translation. Great work as always friends, much obliged.

XD Kanbei is awesome.

I liked how he sat on that ball at first and then started swinging it around.
At first the moveset reminded me a bit of SW Oichi's first one, but then he got wild and ... *_*
Nice one! Definitly didn't expect this!

Kanbei is a real fun guy.

Anyway, now I guess we know the reason why Masamune's stage hasn't been shown yet....

They're keeping it for Yoshiaki!


On a side not, the info blurbs for each character have changed a little. Nothing too special, but it is worth noting that they took away any mention of illness and disease from Yoshitsugu's profile, and replaced it with "wants to cast suffering on all humanity for a single goal".


Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going back to watch the vid another 10 times or so....

Ha, that video was all sorts of awesome, especially Kirigakure no Kijin Yoshihiro :ph43r:

Man, you gotta love Kanbei, even his opening animation is sweet. I'm not that surprised by his S-string though, I pictured it some what similar to that, not to say I don't love it! Still, it seems he has a bit of start-up lag, and in BASARA, I can't see that as a good thing... Nevertheless, his skills more than make up for it. Fast and devastating! Also, I think I may have a new favourite basara attack :sly:

Needless to say, the stage looks fantastic. All those erupting geysers are sure to put up a half decent challenge.

My thanks to NDY as always. I assume Kanbei will be the one to refer to Hanbei? I was dissapointed when Kanbei made it, but Hanbei didn't. I really wanted to see their interactions with one another, but this helps a lot! Glad to see a victory scene with some action as well. That was hilarious.

I suppose, with this and Tsuru's video, April may be here before we know it. I just hope the game will be too. With Yoshitsugu, a buffed up Keiji and the brilliance of Kanbei, its gonna be hard to keep patient :hehe:

Well, firstly, it's good to know that Koba still has at least one shred of respect for fans. Part of me was ready to consider not getting anything interesting this month.

Anyway, not much to say that hasn't been said yet. Over-the-top stylish action as expected. I don't mind the lag in his s-string - makes him something of a "technical" character like Yoshihiro. His skills do seem to compensate though. The ball pound and drop kick appear to be very combo friendly.
IMHO Maggie still has the coolest Basara among the newcomers but his is a very solid second.
My favorite part was the Final Freakin' Atomic Buster! Koba must love that move, even Nero did a variation of it.

And of course, much thanks for the translation NDY!

Just a (perhaps moronic) question: those soldiers chasing him in the end are they from some particular clan/faction?

I think their banner was blank....but I'm not 100% sure. Probably they made them anonymous for his victory sequence to make sense in any map....

Anyway, as Keiji's intro text has been changed to include Toshiie and Matsu's names, it's safe to assume that they will be the new revealed characters (NPCs?) next time. We already know they have a stage in-game, but who will fight against them?

Supposing that next batch reveals Mogami Yoshiaki (vs the Date) and a western character...who could it be?

Ukita Hideie? Kinda far and unconnected to the Maeda...up until now they all shared some connection, so....hmm....I'm going too much out on this limb, I'm starting to not make any sense....

Thanks to NDY for the translation, and Jsun for the video. :heart:

Wow, Kanbei is awesome! I love what they've done with his moveset, some of them are so original and fun to watch. I was a bit skeptical at first whether or not I would like him, but now I know I'll dfinitely be playing as him. :sly:

This has certainly raised my spirits. And not long now until we see Tsuru. It seems Kobapii can get things right. :shifty:

On the subject of who will be revealed next, perhaps a character linked to the Uesugi or the Toyotomi? I agree that Yoshiaki should be pitted against his dear nephew, but we still haven't seen Emonari's or Maggie's stages yet.

Meh :hmmm: Kanbei is alright i guess, not my type of character though, but he does seem powerful. Nothing spectacular imo, but thats probably just because i dont like using those type of weapons.

Koen we´ve allready seen Maggie´s stage. Yoshitsugu "balls" his way through her stage :whistle:

We haven´t seen Mitsunar´s stage, Yoshitsugu´s stage (if he has one), Motochika´s stage, Kurokan´s stage and Tsuru´s stage. But I guess, next we´ll see a fight between Tsuru and the big bad one eyed pirate.

Well, here´s the subbed gameplay video of Kurokan: (thanks again for translating the video, NDY and thanks to Jsun for getting the video ;) )



BTW...I just fell in love with SB3 again :wub:

^the difference is itsuki is a bit more "realistic",the attacks comes out REAL slow at first and then the speed picks up a LOT,mostly because of the weight of her hammer and the velocity

josui's S string starts up pretty fast but then have some lag mixed up in it,perhaps because he is much stronger than itsuki(duh) after a few swings he got tired and the ball becomes quite unwieldy?

like the judge "udgey" in the AA series,some of the participants here are quite fickle>.< what's with the swarm of "i hate j00 koba/SB"&"i love it again" over the new updates/vids and the times where there's no updates/vids........get consistent!

Damn, I forgot that we hadn't seen Mitsunari's stage...I wonder who they are keeping it for? First one that comes to mind is Kato Kiyomasa, but....Tsuruhime's existence throws all such speculations out of the window.....

@ Koen:

We've seen Motonari's stage too, remember the Solar Burning Mirror?

*watches Kanbei's video and weeps*

I'm having horror flashbacks of DW6 Dian Wei.

But... it is the way of ball and chain, and therefor makes sense. He does seem to swing it a bit faster, which is always a plus for me. I really don't like slow characters; just not my style.

He seems like one of those characters I'll play, just to get his story done.

Well, technically we are getting info. We now no of some new Shimazu NPC's, and that Kanbei is frickin' awesome. I haven't been here in a few days because, well let's just Japan threw ultimate paradise in a video game case over to the US.

Wow. Kanbei made a comment about Hanbei. Wish I could've seen them together. I also like Kojuuro's voice track. The Date amry's lines are pretty cool. Out of all the translations we got, my fav one was " Fell to the ground? No, I just landed!" Gotta love Masamune.

We allready have lot of things we know now:

First we´ve gotten Kurokan´s video. Second we´ll get Tsuru´s video in two weeks, so we might get the intro of SB3, that shown not long ago, next week. Also, since Aniki is Tsuru´s target we´ll get to see some pirate action too :cool:

Also Keiji´s profile was updated stating Matsu and Toshiie. There´s a high possibility that those will be in the next batch (as NPCs, playable or half - half) and since Mitsunari´s and Masamune´s stage wasn´t shown yet, they might keep it for Mogami Yoshiaki (who could fight Mitsunari since Yoshiaki is probably on the east side too and another western character like Ukita Hideie who fights Masamune...or even Tsuruhime :rolleyes: )

So at least we can expect some cool videos the next two weeks and then after that it might be a reunion with the Maeda couple + the long awaited Mogami Yoshiaki :)

Now that FFXIII, Yakuza III and God of War 3 are out/soon out there´s a lot of distraction, also with games like Super Street Fighter 4, Hokuto no Musou and Strikeforce 2 in the near future, the time will flow by like nothing
