Same as the thread about Samurai Spirits, I'm requesting a maximum of infos about the cast of Last Blade 1 & 2.

I know about Musashi, but what about the others characters ? Do they come from japanese legends, or history, or are they ispired from an anime ?

Thanks for your participation !

Akatsuki Musashi in Gekka no Kenshi = not related to Miyamoto Musashi.

Well, I know there are a lot of people that can beat me to it. But fun fact.

when Kyoto was the capital of japan it was said that there were 4 gods guarding the city, they where located on four corners on the city.

These where:

Genbu (Turtle), Byakko (Tiger), Sen Ryu (Blue Dragon)& Suzaku (The Pheonix).

In last blade there are fighters that are enbodiments of said gods, they are:

Genbu -> Genbu Okina, the old fisherman.
Byakko -> Naoe Shingen, the stone fist macho men (he rocks XD)
Sen Ryu -> Kaede, the goody two shoes main character.
Suzaku -> Shinozuke Kagami, the boss of the first game.

Tekkenshu -> Los movimientos que nunca existieron y siempre quisistes tener!

But Musashi in The Last Blade owns two blades ? He's not Miyamoto Musahi (back from the dead) ?

Nope. He IS back from the dead, but he is not Miyamoto Musashi.

Washizuka was somewhat based off Hajime Saitou, but on another note, he shares similar characteristics to Himura Kenshin and Hajime Saitou from the Rurouni Kenshin manga-- mainly, the cross-scar and the SDM windup stance bear a striking resemblance to Gatotsu.

I've also heard a comparison to Kojiro's fighting style with that of Okita Souji, in that she has a move inspired by the triple slash thing Okita Souji was known to use. I can't readily verify that.

Trivia, but apparently Zantetsu is an ancestor of Eiji from Art of Fighting.

Can't really say much else, as a lot of what I know about it is speculation.

I found Kagami's sword in a junk yard.

I'm surprised, I believed that Last Blade was more based off japanese legends that Samurai Spirits.

Was I wrong ? A character like Keade is pure SNK creation ?

This is just a taoist/fengsui thing, not limited to Kyôto.

Kaede is just a sayajin.

I apologize Iggy,I definitely went overboard with the whole Super Saiyajin-Kamehameha thing.Is it me or am I the only guy around here who still is heavily interested in Dragonball?
If it's this way,we surely MUST do a most & least favorite anime thread;at least,we can all finally give out our interests.Later.
