* PetTheDog: DoubleSubverted during Ranmaru's ending in the 1st game, Nobunaga rewards the boy with a few pieces of candy. While today this may make Nobunaga look like a cheapskate, FridgeBrilliance[=/=]ValuesDissonance would set in once one realizes Sengoku Japan didn't have a sugar refinery to make the candy, which is likely imported from Portugal. Long story short: the candy is most likely NOT cheap.

Also, in the second game, he express genuine disbelief if Ranmaru is defeated during the battle of Azuchi Castle, contrasting his usual apathy.

* LaughablyEvil: It's kind of hard ''not'' to at least chuckle at how ObviouslyEvil Nobunaga is in this series. Even the ''VideoGame/{{Onimusha}}'' version isn't this over-the-top, and that one became the ''king of hell''.

* [[HistoricalVillainUpgrade Historical Hero Downgrade]]: ''Sengoku Basara'' is one of the very few media where Mitsuhide is downright villainous and wicked. Keep in mind that Capcom did portray him in a better light in ''VideoGame/{{Onimusha}}'', however.

* AdaptationalWimp: The historical Katsuie was one of Nobunaga's highest-ranked and most influential retainers, and when Nobunaga died and the Oda was basically split into 2 factions due to a succession dispute, he was the leader of one of the factions. In here, he is (to put it bluntly) an easily manipulated idiot with an unhealthy obsession over a woman, and pretty much nobody respects him.

Added DiffLines:

* TheStarscream: Beforehand, after hearing about prospects of being a Dimensional Lord, Katsuie decided that he's the one more worthy for the title and decided to betray Nobunaga for it. Unfortunately for him, Nobunaga proved too strong and his failed rebellion marked the start of his life of humiliation.

Added DiffLines:

* AdaptationalAttractiveness: Most other Shibata Katsuie portrayal usually demand that he's an older, muscular gung-ho man. Since it doesn't fit Basara's CastFullOfPrettyBoys aesthetic, Katsuie is designed to be a pretty boy, albeit rather mopey.

* PurposefullyOverpowered: As a playable character in the third game. The health, offence and defence of Tadakatsu combined with Yukimura's movement speed, attack speed and reach (both in front and to the sides), use of the shadow element, and a ludicrously overpowered SuperMode as one of his final arts. His boss incarnation has between one and seven {{One Up}}s depending on how many souls you let him eat, gets stronger every time he revives, and has all his playable moves powered up further. He's still just as powerful in the fourth game, but is much less troublesome to fight and unlock.

** BadassCreed: "Tenka Fubu" or "the world under military rule".
*** Also his very first speech from the anime about worshipping him is quite epic.
