What characters do you love to play as most on the Samurai Warriors series of games?

I never really got into the first Samurai Warriors, so my favourite characters to play as have to be Magoichi and Hideyoshi on SW2. They just have the best move sets! :)

If Yukimura Sanada and Zhao Yun are selectable from the get-go in any Warriors games, then them. They will both be the ones I try to get the special weapons for first as well. So my answer is Yukimura. But really, it's hard to say since I get all the special weapons and maximize all the characters, even those I'm not really interested in because you get something worthy out of it.

And in response to yours, I'm not that much of a fan of Magoichi myself, but I like Hideyoshi in SW2 very much.

In SW1, I really liked the edit mode (even if it was a PITA sometimes), so I usually played as the people I made. Out of the main characters though, my favourite would be Goemon. His cannon was fun, plus you needed it to break through certain walls.

For SW2, my favourite was Ieyasu (they got rid of Goemon... :( ). Gotta love his charge moves, especially things like the laser and flamethrower... :D

I didnt know about SW1 at the time...so the first one I played was SW2, and the first character I played was Mitsunari...he, along with Magoichi, Sakon and Kanetsugu, took up most of my playing time...oh, Nagamasa also, those 5 are my favourite SW characters, and also the ones I play as the most :D

I never liked Goemon or Ieyasu. Sometimes I just think peoples weapons are plain stupid.

They may be stupid... but that doesn't mean they aren't fun :cool:

True, I guess. I've played as Ieyasu but I don't think I've ever played as Goemon.

Lol, when I first saw Ieyasu's weapon, a laughed so hard...it one of the most rediculous weapons that you will ever see...but then again, his moveset is quite useful at times, so its not all that bad ^^

LewisSO
23-01-09, 11:34 PM
Yeah, When I first saw him I thought him and the weapon both looked ridiculous.
He's a good character though. I just don't like the weapon.

Hattori Hanzo always liked ninjas, his move set is pretty decent and I love his quotes and attitude where the other 3 ninja all annoy me.

Nobunaga Oda to me, his moveset is pretty good for crowd clearing especially his C4, I drawn enemies closer then break their defenses and send them all flying. :P

Musashi Miyamoto and Kotaro Fuma would come next, I get along pretty well with these for guard break and with Slay (Demon) Element on their weapons for maximum damage.

I can't stand Nobunaga's Musou, but Musashi and Kotaro have awesome looks and move sets.

LittleDragonZ
24-01-09, 12:04 PM
Nobunaga's musou is just really for fleeing, catching fleeing units, or for the musou power-up that's exclusive to the Samurai Warriors series.

I personally would like to see a change, even if the change resembles another demonic attack.

Ruka
24-01-09, 12:11 PM
Nobunaga's musou is just really for fleeing, catching fleeing units, or for the musou power-up that's exclusive to the Samurai Warriors series. Yeah his lvl 3 Musou in SW2 turns the musou much more helpful, well not just Nobunaga but all the 3 characters I choose have some of the worst musou's of SW. I rarelly use Musou, Often use it to clear a crowd of enemies or escape from a dangerous situation. Nobunaga could use a better Musou in a future SW game.

LittleDragonZ
24-01-09, 12:33 PM
Don't count on it though. Unless he gets another weapon that's. As Koei tend to cling onto attacks that have been in the past, and reuse. I know for a fact that they seem to switch a certain attack through a Zhao Yun/Yukimura Sanada cycle, which is the quick jabbing. So I think a weapon change will make this more likely for it to be removed and replaced.

LewisSO
24-01-09, 04:03 PM
Yeah well, DW6 weapons and looks changed a lot. So maybe SW3 is going to be very different.

I play as Oichi the most, in SW1 and SW2. Also, I liked Kunoichi in SW1 and Nene in SW2.

I don't like how Oichi's weapon looks, but it is actually pretty good.

25-01-09, 10:00 AM
Oichi most of the time, but I also enjoy playing as Okuni, Nö and Ina.

Sho-saka
25-01-09, 12:37 PM
Okuni probably, because she's hilarious, loves to flirt with the male SW characters and she has an umbrella as her main weapon. XD

Gracia is the runner up, due to the fact that she plays very differently than most of the SW characters and that she's a powerhouse at casting magic upon thousand of unlucky troops. XD

For the male counterpart, it's probably Sakon Shima, as I love his Elvis touch (XD) and his personality just rocks. The second would have to be Keiji, if his voice wasn't sounded like Michelangelo from TMNT, so the next bet would have to be Nagamasa, due to his blonde hair and how he acts like a knight in shining armour.

Tadakatsu obviously he has the best stats and movset his move set is extremly fun to use as well as being extremly effective

Kenji Icarus

I like Musashi Miyamoto the most. He's easy to handle. His movements are nearly perfect. In Samurai Warriors 2 he's definitely the best character, cutting down every opponent in his way. There it's also very easy to get up the survival tower. Playing with him makes me sometimes feel like I'm indestructable XD

Shika
29-01-09, 02:52 PM
Ina, she's a killer :p Her moveset is excellent, and her special allow to chose an element for next attacks, it's perfect^^

Gtown
29-01-09, 06:08 PM
Hmmm....it's a tie between Toshiie, Kojiro, Mitsuhide, and Tadakatsu. All of them have their strengths and weaknesses, but they are all just awesome.

leyasu Tokugawa in SW2. Theres something about shooting cannon balls out of a spear that just makes me want to play him over and over again.

Musashi Miyamoto.
He is an real slayer of his time, the charackter is absolutly amazing and has an interessting history. The Weapon Mastery and Vision is definitly the best looking weapon in SW.

But I´m also a very big fan from Masamune Date (look on my name, you see I´m a fan xD) He has an cool fightingstyle, i like his outfit and his history is also veeery interessting.

If I had to make an classment for the female characters on SW, it would be that one :
No, Ginchiyo, Ina, Nene, Gracia, Oichi

I picked No first because I love her appearance, her character but I think her power lowed a bit on SW2 as well as her moveset (cut) but she is still my fav

Qing Long
14-02-09, 12:03 AM
Well there're a lot of characters I love to use ^^'''''

For the moveset, I think those I play the most are probably >>

(For Girls) Nene (also Kunoichi's moveset (in SW1) even if she's harder to control sometimes), Gracia (her moveset are very special & unique ^^), Oichi (Her Cup&Ball move are original too), Ginchiyo (She's the strongest female character & a warrior indeed ^^), Ina (yeah her bow is super even if miss a bit of power sometimes), well I also like others girls moveset (Nouhime & Okuni, Okuni in last because her weird Musou)

(For Boys) Mitsunari (He has special & great moveset with his fan) Nagamasa (His moveset have a good style & he has an European weapon :p ) Kanetsugu (Unique moveset with magic charms attacks) Motochika (of course! with his cool weapon :p ) Mitsuhide, Sakon, Nobunaga & Kojiro, there're maybe others one, but I think I wrote characters I play the most XD

In SW2 I always play as Lady no or oichi or Gracia .

14-02-09, 02:01 PM
As far as male characters go, I love Magoichi Saika. He has such a funny personality around the ladies which I tend to laugh at because he ends up failing with them. Good weapon for long range attacks and has some good charge attacks to wipe out large crowds in front of him.

For female, Tachibana Ginchiyo. She is the only female who's weapon I can handle pretty good without having much trouble.

23-03-09, 06:46 PM
I never played the first SW, but I would choose Kunoichi. Even though she's super annoying, she's got an awesome move set (especially her musou attack. twirls of death!) In SW2, it'd be Okuni or Ina. I like Okuni's C3 and Ina's random arrow attacks. In SW2: XL, either Motochika or Gracia. Motochika's shamisen is beast and Gracia's C5 and musou is awesome. :D

Fayt
02-04-09, 10:49 AM
Sakon Shima for sure, great moveset, appearance, voice actor (SW2 - not WO) and personality, I hope he doesn't change much in future Samurai Warriors titles.

Next, out of the ladies I use Ginchiyo the most - I just love her attack speed!

Insp. Chin
02-04-09, 06:17 PM
I always pick Oichi and Nagamasa but I must admit Ginchiyo is the strongest female warrior there.

God-Like Phoenix
02-04-09, 09:51 PM
When I first ever used her, her moveset wasnt all that good to start with...or so I thought, so when I got to the rest of her moveset, I realised that she was awsome ^^ and yeah...apart from Ina, she is the best female character :rolleyes:

For the guys...I have too many favourites :( I go with Magoichi, Sakon, Mitsunari, Kanetsugu, Nagamasa and sometimes Tadakatsu -_- theyre all just awsome characters

03-04-09, 02:15 PM
Maeda Keiji, reminds me of Kenpachi from Bleach. You have more fun because you can tell the character is having fun.

RedFeather
11-04-09, 07:24 AM
Uh, Hideyoshi for fast crowd clearing (and gold mine of course), Mitsuhide for quick slash, Keiji and Yukimura for running through hordes of peons and call horse, Mitsunari for his nice combo (and charge button twice/ CC), Kanetsugu for his awesome combo (NNNCC), Masamune for gun wielding char, Magoichi for crack and fun, oh my, that's a lot of char already...

10-05-09, 12:54 AM
SW1: Okuni, Kunoichi
SW2E: Kojiro, Ginchiyo
Series: Yukimura, Nobunaga, Keiji, Masamune (yep, both kid and adult) and Ranmaru

I only use Okuni in SW1 because from SW2 onwards they changed her voice and attitude, making her unbearably annoying to me.

Also, in Orochi 2 I use Katsuie, too.

ZhangLiao444
02-06-09, 05:49 PM
Kotaro Fuuma.
Or Hanzo Hattori.

Kunoichi
07-06-09, 10:14 AM
I really like to play as Kunoichi. Some of her movesets seem to be hard to control, but then I got addicted to them ^^ Also, I do like to play with Yukimura, the character with long-range attacks :)

17-07-09, 11:49 PM
Nobunaga Oda(from males) and Ginchiyo Tatchibana(from Females)

Mori ranmaru and Shimazu yoshihiro.

They are both beautiful and manly and they have heavy weapons that you can feel how heavy they hit when they swing at people. Just how i like it.

I still need to go back unlock everyone though so I'm still yet to try them all out :p

SW1/SW1XL - Nobunaga, Hideyoshi, Yoshimoto, Mitsuhide
SW2/SW2XL/SW2E - Kojiro, Musashi, Hideyoshi, Ranmaru, Mitsuhide, Toshiie, Motochika (love that guy)
SW3 - Kanbei, Hanbei, Motochika, Toshiie, Motonari, Ujiyasu, Kai, Hideyoshi.

Deeeefiantely Kojiro, I loved Kojiro. I actually also kinda like the Piratey/Bandit feel they gave Masamune Date with the whole Pistol/Cutlass combo, that was real fun to mess around with.

Hideyoshi I never played myself, but I love watching him being played, he's just. . . funny

18-01-11, 04:08 PM
In general I tend to like most of the SW characters and much pefer them to the DW ones both in terms of looks and moveset. Then there are some charcters I like to watch but not as much playing with like Shingen and Kunoichi.

Its hard to list the favs since I like most of them but for Hideyoshi, Garcia, Keiji, Fuma, Kenshin and Miyamoto are some of those I really like.

I really hate playing as Ina, No, Kinoichi, Ranmaru and Hanzo.
