The number of attacks increases after level up. If the skill is charged, it becomes unblockable. Description: A burning punch smashes the enemies.It's possible to execute a midair follow-up hit by holding the skill button. Description: Creating a whirlwind, Yukimura launches dozens of enemies in the air.
In Sengoku BASARA 3 this can be performed in mid-air too.
Description: Consecutive thrusts like raging waves. After level up, the charge time shortens. Description: Enemies are blown away with a strike, using all one's strength.
Sparda (棲羽亜陀)- Twin spear-like versions of the legendary sword belonging to Dante in Devil May Cry. Rebirth (炎凰) - These have the same properties as Phoenix, but with much higher attack power and medium defense. Combos are easier to achieve since they add an extra hit to every "primed" enemy struck with them. Salamander (槍紅)- A special pair of spears with low attack power and very high defense. Phoenix (朱雀) - A fiery pair of spears with medium attack power and weak defense that cause extra fire damage to enemies. Bloodtooth (紅牙)- A better pair of spears than Sunset with poor attack power and defense. Sunset (朱蘿)- A normal pair of spears with weak attack power and defense. Scarlet Spears - Yukimura's basic weapon. This allows players to pull off long combos as long as Yukimura can still attack.Īdditionally, some of Yukimura's skill also become usable in mid-air, and it is still possible to follow-up with his thrust attack with them. Thus, it's possible to perform his S-String -> use a skill -> follow-up thrust -> S-String -> skill -> follow-up thrust and so on. While the thrust attack is not as spectacular as most of his other attack, it can be followed-up with his normal combo with little to no delay. This attack is used as a dash attack (attack button while dashing) or as a follow-up attack for his skills (press the attack button at the end of the skill). Yukimura gains a new attack - a simple thrust with the right spear- that acts as a "connector" for other attacks. In Sengoku BASARA 3, Yukimura's style seems to lean on continuously attacking. In Sengoku BASARA 2, Yukimura starts to see how their actions affect the people around them and wants to know how much longer must he fight before peace can be achieved. Quote "I feel as if I don't know what to do anymore."ĭate Masamune quickly snaps him out of it as they rush to put an end to Oda. Once Shingen had suffered a wound in his battle with Mitsuhide, which left him unable to battle, Yukimura felt devastated. Throughout the first series, Yukimura serves Takeda Shingen through and through. In Sengoku BASARA Samurai Kings, Yukimura plays a role as one of the main characters alongside the lord of Oshu, Date Masamune and Maeda Keiji, as well in second season. It is revealed in Yukimura's blue path in Sengoku Basara Samurai Heroes that despite Shingen being one of the more powerful leaders in the country, financially speaking the Takeda army is completely broke. His ideal is to walk the path of the warrior, and constantly searches for new possibilities to test his skills (preferably by battling Date Masamune), all the while supporting his master's goal to enter the capital and conquer the country. Yukimura's way of fighting is 100% "frontal", one-on-one, with no tricks or cheating. Another remarkable quality of his personality, mostly shown in the anime, is also his respectful manner of speaking: always adding an honorific when addressing someone, e.g., -sama, or -dono. Probably because of this, Yukimura is incredibly naive and completely ignorant of anything related to the opposite sex, leading him to be made fun of by Maeda Keiji, cringe in horror at the Maedas' lovey-dovey antics, and have humorous conversations with his ninja subordinate, the lazy and aloof captain of the Sanada Ten Braves, Sarutobi Sasuke. Shingen's method of educating Yukimura consists of punching him and giving him life lessons (always with battle metaphors). His master and revered idol, to whom he's fanatically loyal, Takeda Shingen, is the commander of one of the strongest armies of the Sengoku. Yukimura's hot-blooded and "battle-crazy" character contrasts strongly with the Oushuu head's cool demeanor. In Yukimura-den, he takes the role of the game's protagonist, and is playable for a brief period as his childhood self, named Benmaru. He's actually one of the most distinguished warriors in the Sengoku Era who opposes Tokugawa Ieyasu to the end.
Sanada Yukimura is one of the poster boys for this series, along with Date Masamune. ( Samurai Heroes/ Samurai Kings/ 2/ The Last Party/ Judge End) Single Training Spear (Benmaru, Yukimura-den)
