!!Tsuwako Tamazusa
[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/tsuwako_tamazusa_1.png]]
[[caption-width-right:300:[[labelnote:Click here to see her former self.]]https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/tsuwako_tamazusa_2.png[[/labelnote]]]]
->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/RikakoAikawa (Japanese), Claire Hamilton (English)

Tsuwako was a popular actress during the silent film era. With the advent of sound films, however, her horrible voice sent her popularity plummeting to the point where she committed suicide. Ever since, her vengeful spirit has haunted the Kanzaki film studios.
----
* ArcVillainess: She serves as the main antagonist in the third episode of the second OVA series.
* DemonicPossession: She possesses Ogami in order to kill Sumire during the production of ''Crimson Lizard''.
* DrivenToSuicide: After her popularity went into a downward spiral, Tsuwako decided to hang herself.
* HeelRealization: When Sumire calls out Tsuwako for what she's done to herself, the latter shamefully realizes her mistake.
* ItsPersonal: Tsuwako deeply resents the film industry for destroying her career as an actress. However, Sumire correctly pinpoints her [[ItsAllAboutMe selfish attitude]] being the reason why she lost it all to begin with.
* TalkingTheMonsterToDeath: How Sumire gets her to back down complete with YouAreBetterThanYouThinkYouAre.
* TearsOfRemorse: At the end, Tsuwako sheds tears after Sumire makes her realize how wrong her actions were.

!!Count Tournell
[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/count_tournell.png]]
->'''Voiced by:''' Masane Tsukayama

A Frenchman of upper-class origin, he survived the events of the French Revolution by conducting alchemy experiments that allowed him to be immortal with plans to destroy Paris after the events of ''Is Paris Burning?''. He is the main antagonist of ''Sakura Wars: Le Nouveau Paris''.
----
* DisappearsIntoLight: How he passes on near the end of ''Le Nouveau Paris''.
* HollywoodAtheist: Tournell's faith in God died alongside his humanity.
* MisanthropeSupreme: Having gone through the horrors of the UsefulNotes/TheFrenchRevolution, he is determined to see humanity's demise.
* OurHomunculiAreDifferent: He can create powerful homunculi with enough strength to match those of demons. Too bad they instantly die when the stones powering them are destroyed.
* PhilosophersStone: Is able to mass produce these to create homonculi and animate buildings.

!![=MI6=]
[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/mi6.png]]

----

!!Futaba Taiga (née Ogami)
[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/futaba_taiga.png]]
->'''Voiced by:''' Rumi Kasahara

Ichiro Ogami's older sister and Shinjiro's mother, Futaba is a highly skilled warrior in her own right.
----
* CoolBigSis: To Ichiro.
* TheDreaded: Played for laughs; her mere presence terrifies Kayama, who's implied to still have nightmares about his days training under her.
* DualWielding: She was the one who taught Ichiro and Shinjiro how to fight with two swords at once.
* EarlyBirdCameo: She's mentioned offhand during Sakura's ending in ''4'', Ichiro receives several letters from her in the [=PS2=] version of the first game, and Shinjiro writes a number of letters to her in ''V'', but she doesn't appear in person until the ''Utau Dai New York 2'' stage play and the ''New York NY'' OVA.
* TheGadfly: Very much enjoys teasing people.
* TheGhost: She's briefly mentioned in ''So Long, My Love'' and the remake of the first ''Sakura Wars'' game, as well as ''Fall in Love, Maidens''.
* MentorArchetype: Being a MasterSwordswoman herself, Futaba trained Ichiro Ogami, Yuichi Kayama and Shinjiro Taiga to wield swords.
* MumLooksLikeASister: To the point where everyone but Subaru is shocked when they find out she's Shinjiro's mother.
* OpenMindedParent: After seeing Shinjiro dressed up as Peppermint, she declares that she's fine with her son wanting to become a woman, and offers to help him become even more feminine. She already knows the true reason behind his cross-dressing and was just trolling him, but it's implied she'd be genuinely okay with her son being transgendered.
* PracticallyDifferentGenerations: Implied. Futaba's specific age is unknown, but given that her younger brother is 25 whilst her son is 19, she'd almost certainly have to be over a decade older than the former.
* PromotionToParent: She is implied to have mostly raised Ichiro on her own.
* SoProudOfYou: To Shinjiro after he saves her life. Also played for laughs after she sees [[ChickMagnet just how close he is to the rest of the Star Division]].
* YamatoNadeshiko: Polite, adept at housework, and has a backbone of pure steel, though she's more overtly high-spirited than the usual examples (just enough to reveal where Ichiro and Shinjiro got their HotBlooded tendencies from).

!!Tutankhamen
[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/tutankhamen.png]]
->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/HiroshiKamiya

The BigBad of the ''New York NY'' OVA.
----
* BigBad: The main antagonist of the ''New York NY'' OVA.
* TheHeartless: Tries to become a literal example of this near the end of the OVA, but is stopped twice by his pet cat Bastet and Shinjiro.
* UnsettlingGenderReveal: Inverted. He has some attraction toward Peppermint (Shinjiro in disguise) due to the latter's similarity to his late wife. However, he doesn't show anger or shock when he finds out the truth. His response is completely calm. If anything, he comes to respect Shinjiro's ability to play the part.
* WellIntentionedExtremist: Definitely comes across as a bit more sympathetic than the typical ''Sakura Wars'' antagonist.

[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/brent_furlong.png]]

The head of the American manufacturer Douglas-Stewart, he serves as the BigBad of ''Anime/SakuraWarsTheMovie''.
----
* AttackOfTheFiftyFootWhatever: When Brent merges with the Japhkiels at the end of the film, he turns into a gigantic demon.
* BigBad: The main antagonist of the film, Brent was responsible for almost dismantling the Imperial Combat Revue and replacing them with his army of Japhkiels.
* BitchInSheepsClothing: Despite being seemingly passionate about charity work, he is actually scheming to take over Tokyo.
* BondVillainStupidity: Not seeing the Flower Division use the waterways to enter the Imperial Theater bites him back hard.
* CharacterDeath: He is killed by the Imperial Combat Revue at the end of the movie.
* CorruptCorporateExecutive: Those Japhkiels he's marketing? They're actually demons.
* TheEvilGenius: Brent developed the Japhkiels and plans to use Douglas-Stewart to make the Imperial Combat Revue obsolete.
* EvilIsBigger: Brent merges with the combined Japhkiels into a giant demon that towers over the Imperial Combat Revue's Koubus.
* EvilPlan: He arranged for Douglas-Stewart to exploit the Japhkiels' capabilities of fighting demons more efficiently as well as the takeover of the Imperial Theater.
* EvilSoundsDeep: Koichi Yamadera portrays Brent with a deep voice, a warning that he's definitely up to no good.
* FauxAffablyEvil: He seems to be a friendly, charitable person. Too bad about his plot involving the demise of the Flower Division.
* FinalBoss: He becomes the last boss the Flower Division has to face in the film.
* GreaterScopeVillain: Brent's presence is felt in ''École de Paris'' where a Pawn replica his company had developed had been [[AnimatedArmor bewitched]] by the BigBad of ''Sakura Wars 3''.
* GratuitousEnglish: In the film, some of Brent's dialogue is peppered with English, especially in the opening scenes. Averted in the English dub.
* {{Leitmotif}}: Brent is often accompanied by a dark orchestral piece featured in many of his scenes, most prominently when he's discussing his plans with Patrick and while transforming into his OneWingedAngel form.
* ManipulativeBastard: He manipulates the Japanese military to order the Flower Division on indefinite standby.
* NotSoWellIntentionedExtremist: His plans to revolutionize the steam industry may be noble, but in fact he's only doing this to make the Flower Division obsolete and cause Tokyo to suffer.
* OneWingedAngel: He merges with the remaining Japhkiels, thus transforming him into a gigantic demon.
* VoiceOfTheLegion: After going OneWingedAngel at the end of the film, Brent talks as if his body had many voices speaking at once.
* WarForFunAndProfit: His ultimate goal is to revolutionize the steam industry with Japhkiels, trademarked by Douglas-Stewart.
* WeaksauceWeakness: Brent's demon form is actually weak to sound waves which Kohran takes advantage of in order to greatly cripple him.

!!Patrick Hamilton
[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/patrick_hamilton_1.png]]
[[caption-width-right:300:[[labelnote:Click here to see his ''Sakura Wars V: Episode Zero'' appearance.]]https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/patrick_hamilton_2.png[[/labelnote]]]]

* ImmuneToBullets: As Maria herself found out the hard way. Though he isn't immune to spiritual power bullets as ''he'' himself learned.
* KilledOffForReal: Eventually. His appearance in ''Episode Zero'' suggests that he was able to use some of his black magic to survive the events of the movie, but Gemini apparently manages to kill him off for good.
* PostFinalBoss: Patrick serves as the last antagonist when the Imperial Combat Revue kills Brent and Yoneda knocks out Tanuma at the end of the film. Maria uses a bullet filled with spirit power to finally put him down.
* SuddenlyShouting: In the film, Patrick is a mysterious person involved in the Douglas-Stewart conspiracy. However, he doesn't take it well when others know too much about Brent's plans. When he first meets Maria while she is investigating Douglas-Stewart's plans to convert the demons into Japhkiels, he shouts ''"You have learned too much!"'' before suddenly attacking her.

!!Haruyoshi Tanuma
[[quoteright:100:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/haruyoshi_tanuma.png]]
->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/KeijiFujiwara (Japanese), Creator/KirkThornton (English, as "Ron Allen")

Tanuma is a politician and member of the Elder's Institute from ''Anime/SakuraWarsTheMovie''. He supported the use of Japhkiels from the Douglas-Stewart Corporation.
----
