* OutOfFocus: In two ways: ''Kishou Hongi'' is currently the only main installment in which he appears, joining Nikkari Aoe, Tomoegata Naginata, and Monoyoshi Sadamune as members of the "one main installment" group. As well, for as much as Kotegiri pushed for Otegine to become idols with him, he is absent from the ''Gou on Stage'' lineup, which instead includes Oodenta Mitsuyo and Suishinshi Masahide as non-Gou sword cast members.

!! Otegine (''Musical'')
[[quoteright:250:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/img_1451_6.jpeg]]

Otegine as he appears in Theatre/MusicalToukenRanbu. He debuted in the musical ''Kishou Hongi''.
----
* TheGadfly: Seems to be fond of mutually pestering Sadachika after deciding he doesn't like him on their first meeting.
* {{Irony}}: In the main story, he's pretty adamant that he can't be an idol, despite Kotegiri's insistence. Guess what he inevitably becomes in Act II?
* NoRespectGuy: A light example. Sadachika decided he didn't like him on their first meeting and would become a thorn in his side ever since, constantly picking fights with him. Kotegiri also chose him to practice being an idol, despite his verbal reluctance and insistence that he can't be one. Every time they're seen together in a non-serious setting, he's exhausted by how hard Kotegiri works him, but he's too nice to firmly reject him.
* OddFriendship: Somewhat reluctantly forms a friendship with Kotegiri Gou from ''Kishou Hongi'' onwards after being forced to practice being idols with him.
* OutOfFocus: In two ways: ''Kishou Hongi'' is currently the only main installment in which he appears, joining Nikkari Aoe, Tomoegata Naginata, and Monoyoshi Sadamune as members of the "one main installment" group. As well, for as much as Kotegiri pushed for Otegine to become idols with him, he is absent from the ''Gou on Stage'' lineup, which instead includes Oodenta Mitsuyo and Suishinshi Masahide as non-Gou sword cast members.
* {{Tsundere}}: He develops this attitude toward Sadachika (who also develops it toward him) after they begin to like each other but are hesitant to admit it due to their previously belligerent interactions.

* OutOfFocus: Despite being in the game since its inception, his self-confidence issues as the least renowned of The Three Great Spears failed to endear him to the player base and even most writers, as he receives the least amount of focus in spin-off works compared to Tonbokiri, who is the best represented Yari across ''Touken Ranbu'' media, and Nihongou, who had major appearances in the stage play and live-action film adaptations. Otegine's only major appearances have been in ''Hanamaru'', which isn't particularly noteworthy given that the show has included every Touken Danshi it can fit into its runtime, and one musical, which he co-starred in with fellow Yari Tonbokiri.

A spear made by Kanesada II, nicknamed "Nosada". His owner, Mori Nagayoshi, called himself Musashi-no-Kami, and was called Oni Musashi because he was as strong as a demon. He likes to write, perhaps because of Nosada's influence, or maybe it is that of Nagayoshi...?
----
* BloodKnight: He's especially enthusiastic in battle and talks about parading the heads of the defeated.
* CommonalityConnection: In their Recollection, he bonds with Iwatooshi over being the partners/swords of legendary long sword wielders Musashibou Benkei (for Iwatooshi) and Mori Nagayoshi (or Oni Musashi Nagayoshi, as Ningen calls him).
* DeadManWriting: He writes the Saniwa a final message ''as'' he's dying and apologizes to them for its length.
* HiddenDepths:
** Well, not quite hidden, but like his fellow Nosada swords, he has elegant hobbies like writing, which is stated to be either because of the influence of Nosada, his forger, or Mori Nagayoshi, his former owner. He also has a fondness for tea utensils.
** Despite his aggressiveness on the battlefield and obsession with cutting through bones, he can also be warm and kind, offering comforting words to Fudou Yukimitsu in their Recollection.
* TheIllegible: Implied in his Recollection with Kasen Kanesada, who points out that he might have a hard time writing because of the Nosada's reputation for having bad handwriting.
* LockedOutOfTheLoop: His Recollection with Iwatooshi implies that he's unaware that Iwatooshi is a fictional sword and not one who was formerly owned by Musashibou Benkei. That said, it's unclear if he would treat him any different if he did know the truth.
* TheMentor: Izuminokami Kanesada refers to him as "Senpai" due to being the game's youngest Kanesada and a 12-generation Kanesada sword, taking that to mean that the Nosada's have a senior connection to him. Ningen accepts this role, and in their sparring interaction, he is shown teaching his "Kouhai" and lecturing him on his technique.
* VerbalTic: He says "Mu" at the beginning of many of his sentences.

* AmbiguousSituation: Tomoegata Naginata implies that because there's so little variation between the juumonji spears, he might not even have been the one that was wielded by Sanada Yukimura, but that he may have attached himself to that legend anyway.


Added DiffLines:

* HiddenDepths: If his Recollection with Tomoegata Naginata and Shizukagata Naginata is anything to go by, the reason he's so obsessed with legends and stories is because he likely himself lacks a legend.

--> ''"What do you mean, peace? The only thing I'm after is the enemy stronghold."''

--> ''"...No... There's... nothing here...!"''
