It's okay, i like the action and objectives but i prefer Dynasty Warriors better. OO! OO!

Jyubei, real guy lived int he 1600s (1607-1650). He opened a dojo of the style "Yagyu Shinkage-ryu" and he actually did lose an eye, an accident with a wooden sword while training with his father.

There is legend about legendary blacksmit named masamune. He is called legend but he is real. Anime and final fantasy fanperson think it is only cool to call long sword of sephiroth that name but he is true blacksmith. I cut this from web article in http://www.akibudo.com _________________________________________________ Masamune lived at the beginning of the 14th century. History (or legend) tells that he was an upright, honest and good man, and that his blades brought serenity to the holder. On the contrary, his pupil, MURAMASA, who also had a perfect forging technique, was considered a violent man. Thus his evil aura impregnated his blades, which always caused great harms and spilled great amounts of blood. It is said that to differentiate those perfect blades, it was as simple as sticking them in the bed of a river, edge directed upstream. Leaves brought by the current were neatly sliced by Muramasa's blade, whereas they strangely avoided Masamune's and went their way _________________________________________________ They say Masmune katana is national treasure. I see it can be bought in net for 44,000 yen. |

Would Hirohito count as a historical figure? I always thought he was an interesting fellow. By the way, he was the Japanese leader during World War II. ^^; |

| The battle of Sekigahara (sry if i spelled it wrongly) is actually a real battle at 1600 AD. IT's totally cool and I also found out that Shinsengumi existed from 1860s-1868, how sad, such a short period of time. OKita Soujiro-(his real name), died at 1868. |

Hi, Mine would be Sakamoto Ryoma: The Indispensable "Nobody" Quite a transformation in just fifteen years, and much of the credit goes to a lower ranking samurai from the Tosa domain named Sakamoto Ryoma. When Ryoma fled his native Tosa in spring of 1862, he was a "nobody." Although he was a renowned swordsman who had served as head of an elite fencing academy in Edo, and was also a leader of the young samurai in Tosa who advocated the radical slogans "Expelling the barbarians, imperial reverence and toppling the Shogunate," in the eyes of the powers that were he was a "nobody." He had never held an official post and he never would. Owari~ mi-chan

| I only have heard of Tokugawa before. Btw, is the battousai a real historical figure, coz in the ova, the extras part was saying about some sort of historical record saying that a person titled Hitokiri battousai actually lived during the end of the Tokugawa. And that the Tomoe character actually existed as well. |

Miyamoto Musashi because he was an amazing samurai. You gotta give the guy credit for killing an opponent with a bokken, when his opponent had a nodachi... That takes skill.
I can't think of anything to put here!!!!

Murasaki Shikibu is the name of the woman who wrote "Tale of Genji" Neither is probably her real name. It's been lost to time and people often changed their names back then. There's a half fiction half non-fiction book about what her life MIGHT have been like called "A Tale of Murasaki" It's a good read. Emperor Showa (formerly Hirohito) is certainly a historical figure. Musashi was titled "Sword Saint" aka Kensei, he'd think being called a God of the sword was heretical and sacrilegious. I like Gozen Tomoe. Woman Samurai, equal to about 40 men, or so the stories say. She helped usher in the era of the Shogun over 800 years ago. |
