* BreatherBoss: Tenkai in Dawn of Dreams due to his simple attacks.
* BrokenBase: Many regarding the ''Warlords'' remaster:
** Despite the below-listed FridgeBrilliance behind it, many fans are still rather split over whether or not remastering only the first game was a good idea. While many gamers are understandably excited, there are some good points to be made. For starters, a lot of people see it as a rather half-assed move on Capcom's part due to the fact that after almost 13 years of no word on the franchise's status (with some fans even ''petitioning'' for an [=HD=] collection of all 4, no less), a re-release of the first game was all we got. This is not helped by the fact that despite the game being almost 3 console generations old, nothing significant was done to the game besides adding analog control and touching up the visuals somewhat. This, combined with its incredibly abrupt and out-of-nowhere announcement, along with the recent surge in popularity of Samurai-based HackAndSlash games thanks to the unexpected success of ''VideoGame/{{Nioh}}'', has led some to believe Capcom is only remastering the game because it would be relevant, and nothing else.
** Even if Capcom is doing it to test the waters, which likely is their intention, some fans are understandably afraid of what will happen if it backfires. While it does enjoy a dedicated following, many have pointed out that ''Onimusha'' is, as far as general audiences go, a fairly niche series to begin with, especially amongst younger gamers who didn't grow up during the early [=PS2=] era, and that in the wake of more complex action games such as ''VideoGame/{{Bayonetta}}'' and Capcom's own ''VideoGame/DevilMayCry'' series, it might not have a place anymore. Basically, if the remaster doesn't sell well enough, fans fear Capcom will bury the series again, this time permanently, killing off any chance of the other 3 games getting remasters, let alone a new entry.
*** Now that the remaster is out, it appears that this has unfortunately proven to be true. While reviews are much better than you'd expect from a re-release of a nearly 18-year-old game with minimal changes, with scores ranging around 6-7, critics have ''also'' noted that while the game is still fun to play, it shows its age to the point that ignoring it is difficult, with some even going as far to say that it made them realize the ''original'' game was worse than they remember it. Moreover, fans have also stated that very few copies of the game showed up at their local retailers, a vague indicator that demand for the title is minimal. Combine that with its poor sales in Japan (28,000+ units in the first week for both the [=PS4=] and Switch versions '''combined''', before dropping off the top 20 soon after), and it's safe to say that the chances of the other games getting remasters will depend entirely on fan reception and Western sales.
** Fans are also split over whether or not excluding the ''Genma'' content from the Xbox port matters or not. Some are indifferent, some are glad they omitted it, while others are downright disappointed and hope that it gets released as [=DLC=].

* FridgeBrilliance: Many fans are puzzled that Capcom decided to remaster just the first game as opposed to a collection of all 4, but it actually makes a lot of sense. Not only is it a great marketing tactic to test the waters, but ''Warlords'' was also the only title in the series to be released on more than one console, with the ''Genma Onimusha'' port for the Xbox, making it more likely for non-[=PlayStation=] gamers to be familiar with it.

*** Now that the remaster is out, it appears that this has unfortunately proven to be true. While reviews are much better than you'd expect from a re-release of a nearly 18-year-old game with minimal changes, with scores ranging around 6-7, critics have ''also'' noted that while the game is still fun to play, it shows its age to the point that ignoring it is difficult, with some even going as far to say that it made them realize the ''original'' game was worse than they remember it. Moreover, fans have also stated that very few copies of the game showed up at their local retailers, a vague indicator that demand for the title is minimal. Combine that with its poor sales in Japan (28,000+ units in the first week for both the [=PS4=] and Switch versions '''combined''', before dropping off the top 20 soon after), and it's safe to say that the chances of the other games getting remasters are currently extremely slim.

** Even if Capcom is doing it to test the waters, which likely is their intention, some fans are understandably afraid of what will happen if it backfires. While it does enjoy a dedicated following, many have pointed out that ''Onimusha'' is, as far as general audiences go, a fairly niche series to begin with, especially amongst younger gamers who didn't grow up during the early [=PS2=] era, and that in the wake of more complex action games such as ''VideoGame/{{Bayonetta}}'' and Capcom's own ''VideoGame/DevilMayCry'' series, it might not have a place anymore. Basically, if the remaster doesn't sell well, fans fear Capcom will bury the series again, this time permanently, killing off any chance of the other 3 games getting remasters, let alone a new entry.

* BrokenBase: Despite the below-listed FridgeBrilliance behind it, many fans are still rather split over whether or not remastering only the first game was a good idea. While many gamers are understandably excited, there are some good points to be made. For starters, a lot of people see it as a rather half-assed move on Capcom's part due to the fact that after almost 13 years of no word on the franchise's status (with some fans even ''petitioning'' for an [=HD=] collection of all 4, no less), a re-release of the first game was all we got. This is not helped by the fact that despite the game being almost 3 console generations old, nothing significant was done to the game besides adding analog control and touching up the visuals somewhat. This, combined with its incredibly abrupt and out-of-nowhere announcement, along with the recent surge in popularity of Samurai-based HackAndSlash games thanks to the unexpected success of ''VideoGame/{{Nioh}}'', has led some to believe Capcom is only remastering the game because it would be relevant, and nothing else.

* FridgeBrilliance: Many fans are puzzled that Capcom decided to remaster just the first game as opposed to a collection of all 4, but it actually makes a lot of sense. Not only is it a great marketing tactic to test the waters, but ''Warlords'' was also the only title in the series to be released on more than one console, with the ''Genma Onimusha'' port for the Xbox, making it more likely for non-[=PlayStation=] gamers to be familiar with it. This would not only explain why it's being remastered for all current consoles, but also why only the [=PS4=] and Xbox One versions are being released on disc: because the [=PS2=] and Xbox is where it originally appeared, and it would be an ''excellent'' throwback.
