* KillTheParentRaiseTheChild: [[spoiler:Halfway through the game, after the events of "Clearing the Road", Kichiro is faced with a stranger who tells him that Kichiro's actual loyalty should go to his actual clan, whom Tokugawa murdered, only sparing their son in order to raise him as his own. The opening cutscene for "Last Stand at Fushimi" has Kichiro confronting Daimyo Mototada about his past, leading to Mototada telling the AwfulTruth to him. However, MyMasterRightOrWrong applies, so Kichiro remains loyal to Tokugawa in spite of learning this truth until the battle of Sekigahara and the unification of Japan, after which, he departs from Tokugawa's army]].
