Sasuke is a good new addition in my opinion.

I could even see them pairing him up with Kunoichi since they will probably have goofy interactions.

For Osaka Kimura Shigenari will appear in Sanadamaru perhaps he will be added?

Akihime in Sanadamaru is very interesting in my opinion. Despite Yukimura thinking that she is very attractive (and since she resemble his deceased first wife, Hotta's sister) she is very shady and Yoshitsugu spoiled her rotten.

I kinda had to laugh due to a story in her past in the drama: Akihime/Haru has a strange relationship with Mitsunari in the drama. When Akihime was a young teen (around 12) Mitsunari wanted to be nice to her and gave her a present (a brush). Akihime mistakingly thought that Mitsunari loved her and she went to Mitsunari's wife Uta to ask her to leave Mitsunari. However Mitsunari clearified that Akihime misunderstood him and Akihime threw a fit.
Mitsunari tells Yukimura about this and when Yukimura mentions Mitsunari's name to Akihime she still seems to be upset about it. I guess the drama made Akihime crushing on Mitsunari first so that Sekigahara ruins her even more.

Her character is quite characterized in my opinion. I hope they will leave out her mixed feelings regarding Mitsunari if they add her though.

I have seen pictures of Kudoyama (now plain and more grounded Akihime and also a ten years jump and even Daisuke):

Also a possible new add for Nobuyuki:

Otsu Ono will also appear in Sanadamaru from what I have seen.

I wouldn't mind Akihime getting in too much.

But I really hope your right about Otsu Ono showing up for Nobuyuki. The Sanada clan is looking to become so unbalanced now that Nobuyuki's "split" is looking less like the clan was torn in half(which seemed to be what SW4 was going for?) but looks more like Nobuyuki alone decides to leave considering literally every other member in the clan takes Yukimura's side. Having Otsu Ono would fix this somewhat.

Also, I'm totally game for koei permanently splitting Osaka into multiple battles now, using this game as an excuse to add a bunch of Sanada characters now so they won't need more later while also simultaneously making guys like Morichika Chosokabe and Goto Matabei more viable for addition in future titles as they would have multiple battles to participate via the now broken up Osaka campaigns.

Sasuke really is feminine. Like he could have legitimately been a girl with those looks. I kinda like him, though.

Wait wait wait wait, is that a picture of older Yukimura standing with young versions of Kunoichi and Sasuke...? Oh good god, please tell me they're just trying not to spoil anything... please don't tell me they didn't actually bother to age those two up...
You know I can see all the Nijnjas not aging at all, and the game simply applying "Ninja Magic" too it.

"Oh, we age and were older, but thanks to our special ninja skills, you can't tell."

Sort of like that one woman from Naruto, the blond busty woman who becomes Sakuras teacher/mentor. So yeah, Kunoichi, Sauske, Nene, Kotaro, and Hanzo could possibly only have one age model each in the game.

Masayuki dies 1614 but koei should have it where if they do a few Osaka fights he is there for the 1st one then either dies in battle or dies in bed having a last chat with Yukimura

If they age Yukimura, Masayuki, Nobuyuki (we know they'll age him for sure) and Chacha and don't age close characters like Kanetsugu, Mitsunari and Ina, I will be seriously pissed. They don't even need to make new movesets, just new costumes where they have gray hair and/or beard. I hate laziness, its amazing for them to finally age characters, but aging a few and leave others lost in time is completely lazy and stupid.

I could see them pulling a stunt like that, and even if they could get away with it because they're ninjas, I would hate it so much! I feel like it would just be an excuse to be lazy.

I will slam my face into a desk if they skip out on aging other characters like Masamune or Kanetsugu. EDIT: Completely agree with Makörin above^

I can already tell you that Mitsunari probably won't be aged up. Most likely we will play with normal Yukimura till 2nd siege of Ueda, which means the rest of the cast will have their normal costumes at this point too. And Mitsunari have some problems with keeping his head on his shoulders afterwards.

I suspect we're going to see new characters now. After looking at that website...it just looks like they have more plans to fill it up with stuff.

I could be totally wrong on that, but I just have a gut instinct. A lot of the suggestions Maya made, seeing as they pertain to the taiga drama, are plausible. Many are characters I would not have been surprised with anyways, like Akihime or Otsu Ono.

I rather doubt Daisuke though.

both Aki and Otsu are waste of spot imo (only Matsu). I know it's too late for Takeda, so if there are more adds they are from Osaka stage. If it's couple folks I am all for Katsunaga/Shigenari duo. Even though, I think one Matabei should be more than enough to fill in Hideyori's side. I wish they would add somebody out of time and space to surprise us like Kamiizumi Nonutsuna or Ukita Hideie (yeah I would rather see this guy among defenders even though he was not there).

Interesting bit. Unlike Yukimura, Masayuki and Chacha, Sasuke's character page doesn't has an indication of whether his design is adolescence or adulthood, which seems to imply he won't get the age feature, he'll just go throughout the game always using that design.

I'd like to see at least another Osaka Defender added, just to make things more interesting on those battles. Not particularly interested in either Akihime (Yukimura's big relationship on the game will be with Chacha) or Otsu Ono (Koei already has Nobuyuki and Ina being a perfect couple) though.

The interesting thing is that with the addition of Masayuki and Sasuke to the series this finally opens the door for some actual Takeda adds in future games, since I can't see what other Sanada adds they might put in (there's Saizo, but by now he's pretty redundant, with Kunoichi and Sasuke in, and with Sasuke being an amalgamation of the two of them).

Sorry, but am I the only one who thinks the aging can be avoided for some characters by simply not showing them? Just don't have Yukimura interact with Kanetsugu or anything 'til SW5 or only when same age. Same for Masamune.

Young Chacha and Sasuke's bio.

Quote:
 
Chacha: Chacha during her early childhood. She has a sense of elegance and was brought up well, but has the power to take action when the situation calls for it. Although she tends to push others away, she’s kind at heart and won’t abandon people. She has a fated meeting with a young Yukimura when she visits Azuchi…

Sasuke: A young man without a single relative taken in by and brought up as a disciple of Hanzo Hattori. He has a cold attitude towards everyone, but loves his master Hanzo like a father. He serves Yukimura after a certain opportunity, and his heart will gradually change through their interactions.

Mitsunari isn't going to age up considering he dies. He's only going to be alive as far as the story is concerned for the relevant stuff for teen to young adult Yukumura.

Of course again Ieyasu is still probably going to look like Grandpa the entire way through anyway, but it's less of an issue for this game's story.

Just like the drama.

Sasuke's backstory is really similar to what Saizo tends to be. A disciple of Iga clan Ninja, which Hanzo is based from.

Is it? I don't think it's very realistic to not age Ieyasu at all between Mikatagahara (1573) and Osaka (1615). If anything he's among the characters who's gonna need it the most.

I guess they're keeping Nobuyuki for some kind of announcement during TGS, right? right?... BishiSasuke is ok. Funny interactions with Kunoichi, and not so dramatic interactions with Yukimura would be nice too.

Ieyasu absolutely needs to age at Osaka. I mean, he dies a year later, he's already old. Not like 40something years old, more like 70something years old.

I was wondering if in the future (SW5) Koei will use this new young Yukimura instead of SW4Yuki. In case the age system doesn't return...

I'ma steal away little Chacha. Hideyoshi mustn't have her!

As for aging, Ieyasu could really stand to have a mid and old age design.
