dewicking defunct tropes


* RelationshipVoiceActor: Roll back into ''Manga/SchoolRumble'', please. Now, look whose voice the seiyu of [[Creator/AmiKoshimizu Tsuruhime]] and [[Creator/MamikoNoto Oichi]] did... Tsukamoto sisters Tenma and Yakumo! Also in the "Thorny arc" of ''Manga/{{Gintama}}'', [[Creator/ToshiyukiMorikawa Katakura Kojuro]] and [[Creator/KazuyaNakai Date Masamune]] play sworn and bitter rivals who hate each other's guts.
** Also as a 'tradition' or sorts, most of the seiyuu here have been working on ''Gundam'' franchises.
** In the anime's English dub, voice acting brothers [[Creator/ChrisAyres Christopher]] and Creator/GregAyres voice rival warlords UsefulNotes/TakedaShingen and UsefulNotes/UesugiKenshin, respectively.
** For the English release of ''Samurai Heroes'', Date is voiced by Creator/ReubenLangdon and Sanada by Creator/JohnnyYongBosch, the two lead voice actors of ''VideoGame/DevilMayCry4'' (Dante and Nero respectively).
* TalkingToHimself: In ''Samurai Heroes''.
** Harumasa shares his English voice actor with Yoshitsugu.
** Yoritsuna shares his English voice actor with Motonari.
** In Japanese, Creator/KozoShioya plays both Imagawa Yoshimoto and Xavi.

Names The Same is no longer a trope


* NamesTheSame: Although their last names can both be romanized as 'Mori', Ranmaru and Motonari are not related. This can be a notable case of SpellMyNameWithAnS, since the Mori that's Motonari's clan actually has an extra "u" vowel (Mouri), while Ranmaru's doesn't.

* FranchiseKiller: ''Sengoku Basara: Yukimura-den''. The game was not well received due to a rather lackluster addition (only adding the rest of the Sanada family, Masayuki and Nobuyuki, with Nobuyuki's gimmick coming off rather similar with Hideyoshi's), the only playable campaigns are of the Sanada family (which are short) and a DarkerAndEdgier feel with character deaths. But the most damning one? It's priced like a full game when the contents were sufficient for more like a side-game. Even the Japanese were not that pleased with how ''Yukimura-den'' performed, and for once [[NoExportForYou not bringing it to the States]] might sound like a good idea. At that point, no more mainline games were made, and the franchise was reduced to stage plays, HighSchoolAU spin off (''Gakuen Basara/Basara Academy'') and, a mobile gacha game which sadly, according to those who played it, were ''also'' underwhelming when compared to other mobile gacha games (and also drains much more money compared to the others). Said mobile gacha game was shutdown on December 21, 2020, with no announcements for a fifth game, or another spin-off. Their only recent appearance was just in ''VideoGame/{{Teppen}}'' as usable cards (though that was before the announcement of the gacha shutdown), and after the mobile gacha game was shutdown, Oichi became a full-blown hero in the following month. Unlike the gacha game, ''TEPPEN'' is available in English and released outside of Japan, once again giving the franchise another shot of international exposure.

YMMV


* ExecutiveMeddling: The anime's second season is designed to bring the anime story into line with the game's {{Canon}}, leading to [[spoiler:almost half the cast coming back to life for no adequately explained reason]].
* FanNickname:
** '[[Anime/MobileSuitGundam Hondam]]' for Honda Tadakatsu.
** '[=MotorHorse=]' has been coined for Date Masamune's CoolHorse, for [[NinjaPirateZombieRobot obvious reasons]].
** 'Aniki' for Motochika, which started out as an in-game nickname and was adopted by the fandom.
** 'Okra' or 'Okranari' for Motonari, due to his hat bearing a likeness to said vegetable.
** 'Emonari'' for Mitsunari, thanks to his hair and {{wangst}}. He's also called 'Mi[[{{Tsundere}} tsun]]'.
** 'Maggie' for the [[GenderFlip she-Magoichi]].
** 'Kurokan', a shortening of Kuroda Kanbe.
** '[[{{Moe}} Yukimoe]]' and '{{Uke}}mura' for Yukimura.
** 'Mitsukai' for Mitsuhide's PaperThinDisguise as Tenkai.
** 'Kappa' for Katsuie, on account of his haircut.
** 'Katsu-Copter', again, for Katsuie, on account of his fighting style.
** 'Mototada' for Kasuga, because there actually was an Uesugi officer named Kasuga Mototada, and yes, that's a guy.

** The anime's English dub has several replacements (Creator/RobertMcCollum replacing Reuben Langdon as Masamune), but does manage to keep a good chunk of its cast from ''Samurai Heroes''. However, ''End of Judgment'' has this suddenly in play for Mitsunari when Creator/TroyBaker is replaced by Creator/MatthewMercer. Justified for Ujimasa in the same season, as Jerry Russell had died in the interim between seasons 1 and 3 and was replaced by Sean Hennigan.
