Thanx for welcoming me! I agree... It's just a early design! We have to wait a bit more to have something "final"... |

I'm more excited to see Kotarō and Lady Nō's design than any of the other character's. They are my favorite, especially Kotarō. It's not bad, but I the leg armor freaked me out a bit. I thought his legs were fat at first. I honestly liked his SW2 better than his others IMO. Edited by Venomfreak, Sat Aug 1, 2009 6:12 am.

That's not blob, I think that's the hair of the graph of the back view of Nobunaga. |

I want to see Tadakatsu, his two SWXL costumes were cool but I wasn't so keen on his SW2 design... He didn't look menacing enough. |

Not as strange as the fact that I had an attraction to Ranmaru in SW1... Then I heard his voice <____< |

Now do you see why I don't like Tony Oliver? SW2 did it right- just give the kid a female voice actor. Stop telling men to sound like women, for crying out loud! It doesn't help at all and the chances of us taking the character seriously when we're to busy laughing at his/her voice are slim to none. Which is sad, because Ranmaru still has one of the best movesets AND stories in SW1. |

LOL i dont care, Ranmaru's move set has been so badass in the last two games it makes up for his girlieness. But for SW3 he should evolve into a manlier man.

It was released too early so I doubt that will be his official costume. Besides look at the early character leek silhouettes. Kiyomasa's early leek looks nothing like the way he does now. (0.0) Lol I don't think Ranmaru is going to get any manlier. The way he is portrayed in Samurai Warriors is actually a pun on his name. Edited by Zhen Ji, Sun Aug 30, 2009 7:06 pm.

I don't think he should be any manlier, I just think he should look slightly younger. That way he would have more of an excuse to have a female voice ^.^ |

Slightly younger? eh no SB Ranmaru is such a annoying little punk I don't want another one. And what is with some of you guys and wanting to turn Ranmaru into a she-male/tranny or something? I'm sure he is already rolling in his grave as we speak: he already has a extremely girly voice and he looks and dresses like a girl too. If anything he needs to man up a bit, something like Onimusha/Kessen 3 Ranmaru would be ideal. |

As I stated before, Ranmaru is portrayed that way by Koei because its a pun on his name. Ran = "Orchid" Maru = "Valuable" (formerly a popular suffix for samurai boys' childhood names) Mori = "Forest" These terms are Feminine resulting in the way Ranmaru Mori is portrayed in Samurai Warriors. Same thing goes for Zhang He. Zhang = "Bow" He = "River" |

I never said I had anything against Koei's Ranmaru?? I just said I'm against 'feminizing' him even further, giving him boobs? I mean come on.... |

Tony's cool, but having him voice Ranmaru was bad. He's actually pretty good when voicing male characters. Edited by Lord Mizer, Tue Sep 1, 2009 1:59 am.

Isn't it because Ranmaru was said to be a beautiful young man who possibly had a shudo relationship with Nobunaga? I doubt they would make him look like that just because of his name. In regards to Ranmaru's voice and appearance, I'm fine with it. I thought he was better in SW1, though, since nobody really cared of his looks and you know... he actually had a story in that game. In SW2, other characters often made fun of him and it's annoying when most of Ranmaru's lines have the word "man" in them. We know you're a man despite of your looks, there's no need to constantly remind us of it. Kotaro doesn't resemble a traditional ninja but you don't hear him saying "I'm a ninja, I'm a ninja!" (aka Naruto).
I hope you are referring to Genma Ranmaru . Wouldn't it be cool to see a psycho Ranmaru who jumps on the walls and shouts "Die, die, die!" ?Edited by LoW, Tue Sep 1, 2009 3:01 pm.

UUGGHH> do we HAVE to go thru' the whole Ranmaru mess again? historically Ranmaru was a very feminine looking YOUNG man, he was in his mid teens when he died at Honnoji. it's speculated that he had a Shudo relationship with Nobunaga, as LoW stated. why make one of the really unique and exceptional SW characters into just another one of the "guys". leave Ranmaru alone and just get a teenage boy to voice him. it's not as though KOEI has gone really far out of their way for the past few games to use excellent professional VA anyhow. i think that'd work just fine, just don't screw up his MS. this is yet another topic about what the characters will/are going to look/be like. |

that'd be fine for me. we know you know the subject matter and are enthusiastic about the material. certainly not a hesitant girl like SW2. |

Tony Oliver as Ranmaru..when I first learned of that, I was shocked. Considering how AWESOME his Ma Chao was.. SB Ranmaru would definitely suck, I for one am entirely for his Onimusha 3 appearance pre-genma, as he looked threatening enough to be a warrior, yet still had a refined, slightly feminine appearance with his hairstyle and facial features. His voice was pretty awesome too, Joshua Keaton did a great job (oddly enough coming back to voice Tenkai in Oni4, but that's another story). |

You probably have a good voice. Also, seeing that you know a good deal about Japanese history helps as well. Edited by Lord Mizer, Thu Sep 3, 2009 9:01 pm.

unless i'm mistaken Seraphil-San has a thread in which he demonstrates his talent. i'm not sure of the location since it's been awhile since i visited, however, i'm sure if you PM he'll be glad to direct you there, or maybe he'll just post the link here. |
