History Film / ToukenRanbuTheMovie

* AdvertisedExtra: Ichigo Hitofuri, Horikawa Kunihiro, Kogarasumaru, and Honebami Toushirou are heavily featured in the promotional materials for the sequel film, but the story itself doesn't give them much to do. As well, in comparison to Kotone and Mikazuki, the temporary Saniwa and their connections with the Touken Danshi they are in control of are also given less focus.

* OutOfFocus: Mikazuki and his team's real Saniwa is barely in the movie.

* RescueArc: Most of the film focuses on Mikazuki Munechika's journey to the past to find [[spoiler: Yamanbagiri Kunihiro]], who went missing during a mission, with the other swords sent back in time to find both of them.

* TwentyMinutesIntoTheFuture: {{Downplayed|Trope}}. Despite being set more than 100 years in the future, 2205 has an antiquated feel and lacks the modern conveniences and technological advancements that the Touken Danshi encounter when they time travel back to 2012. Even the Touken Danshi's ability to time travel isn't really a technological advancement since it seems to be done with magic.

** After reluctantly accepting the role of being Mikazuki Munechika's temporary Saniwa, she (also unwillingly) becomes his chaperone, trying to keep him out of trouble with ordinary people while also introducing him to modern-day conveniences.
** In a reverse of the above, Heshikiri Hasebe becomes his temporary Saniwa Mitsuru's minder, although he has far less of a handle on her.

* BrainwashingForTheGreaterGood: Mikazuki Munechika has the ability to mind control people into doing whatever he wants, and he uses this power to make people ignore Kotone and his unusual presence in normal society while they're on their mission. He often activates this power with a funny wink.
* CloudcuckoolandersMinder: Kotone becomes this to the eccentric Mikazuki Munechika after unwillingly taking on the role of being his temporary Saniwa. In a reverse of this, Heshikiri Hasebe becomes Mitsuru's minder during the duration of the time that he's with her despite the fact that she's his temporary master, although he has far less of a handle on her.
* FishOutOfTemporalWater: A odd variant. The Touken Danshi are hundreds of years old and technically lived through the period, but when they travel back in time from 2205 to 2012, they are out of element because they only lived through 2012 as sentient but stationary swords rather than in their newer human forms, meaning that everything they encounter and experience is technically new to them.

** The Konnosuke statues from the first movie return.
* OrdinaryHighSchoolStudent: Kotone is introduced as a typical high school student with a love of music and a fairly normal group of friends who she's in the Light Music club with... But she also just happens to have the ability to hear the voices of tsukumogami, making her a candidate to become a Saniwa, and her encountering Mikazuki Munechika on the walk home one night would abruptly bring her ordinary life to a halt.
* OutOfFocus: Mikazuki and his teams real Saniwa is barely in the movie.

* PublicDomainArtifact: Kotone goes to Tokyo Museum and views the real Mikazuki Munechika while it's on display. [[spoiler: The artifact becomes plot relevant in the story, as it's where Kotone summons Mikazuki Munechika the tsukumogami from]].

* {{Autocannibalism}}: In a rather odd reference to the browser games Refinery mechanic, Kotone brings Mikazuki Munechika to the Tokyo Museum where his original self is on display so he can absorb himself and manifest completely in 2012.

* TwentyMinutesIntoTheFuture: {{Downplayed|Trope}}. Despite being set more than 100 years in the future, 2205 has an antiquated feel and lacks the modern conveniences and technological advancements that the Touken Danshi encounter when they time travel back to 2012.

* StrongAsTheyNeedToBe: Actually a plot point; The Touken Danshi can't manifest in 2012 at full power without use of a temporary Saniwa's abilities, which is why Mikazuki Munechika seeks out Kotone, Hasebe seeks out Mitsuru, and so on.

* BlessedWithSuck: At least with the way the film portrays it, having Saniwa powers has few benefits. Sure, you can talk to and befriend objects, as well as summon hot dudes to be your servants, but you can hear the voices of all objects that contain spirits, including bracelets and vases, not just swords. [[PowerIncontinence Not to mention that the Saniwa's hearing of them is almost always depicted as involuntary and painful]], like a sudden sharp sound in their ears and head. And to top it all off, once the Historical Revisionists learn about any Saniwa, they become the target of their army.

* BlessedWithSuck: At least the way the film portrays it, having Saniwa powers has few benefits. Sure, you get to command an army of hot dudes, but you have no control over when you hear the voices of objects; it hurts your ears and head when they speak to you, and you're set to be targeted by Historical Revisionists once they realize you're a Saniwa.

* StrongAsTheyNeedToBe: Actually a plot point, since it explains the necessity of temporary Saniwa. The Touken Danshi are unable to fully manifest at their full strength without a Saniwa

* SummonToHand: {{Inverted|Trope}}; [[spoiler: Mikazuki teleports to his sword after throwing it]].

* HumansAreBastards: After being rescued by Mikazuki and his team from the Historical Revisionists, Minamoto no Yorimitsu and his team proceeded to slaughter an innocent village full of people, which is depicted in all of it's gruesome, bloody detail. Yamanbagiri Kunihiro even comments that they resemble demons themselves despite Minamoto no Yorimitsu being the hero who would go down in history as the slayer of the oni Shuten-Douji, [[spoiler: who in turn is depicted as being somewhat sympathetic in this movie]].

* AdvertisedExtra: Ichigo Hitofuri, Horikawa Kunihiro, Kogarasumaru, and Honebami Toushirou are heavily featured in the promotional materials for the sequel film, but the story itself doesn't give them much to do. As well, in comparison to Kotone and Mikazuki, the temporary Saniwa and their connections with the Touken Danshi they are in control of are also given less focus.

* AdaptationalDyeJob: Mikazuki's eyes are dark blue in this film instead of a dark blue to light blue gradient, and he also lacks the yellow crescent shape under his pupil. However, there is a close up of his eyes

* HumansAreTheRealBastards: After being rescued by Mikazuki and his team from the Historical Revisionists, Minamoto no Yorimitsu and his team proceeded to slaughter an innocent village full of people, which is depicted in all of it's gruesome, bloody detail. Yamanbagiri Kunihiro even comments that they resemble demons themselves despite Minamoto no Yorimitsu being the hero who would go down in history as the slayer of the oni Shuten-Douji, [[spoiler: who is depicted being somewhat sympathetic in this movie]].

* AllMythsAreTrue: In the sequel, rather than just being the legend it's implied to be in other ''Touken Ranbu'' works, [[spoiler: Shuten-Douji]] is a real oni that becomes one of the major antagonists of the film after cursing and kidnapping [[spoiler: Yamanbagiri Kunihiro]].

* BadassInDistress: [[spoiler: Yamanbagiri Kunihiro spends much of the second film being mind controlled into villainy by Shuten Douji]].

* HumansAreTheRealBastards: After being rescued by Mikazuki and his team from the Historical Revisionists, Minamoto no Yorimitsu and his team proceeded to slaughter an innocent village full of people, which is depicted in all of it's gruesome, bloody detail. Yamanbagiri Kunihiro even comments that they resemble demons themselves despite Minamoto no Yorimitsu being the hero who would go down in history as the slayer of the oni Shuten-Douji, [[spoiler: who is depicted being somewhat sympathetic in this movie]].

* LeeroyJenkins:[[spoiler: Yamanbagiri Kunihiro recklessly charging ahead of his team to investigate is what gets him cursed and kidnapped by Shuten Douji]].

* PillarOfLight: In the sequel, this is how it looks when the Touken Danshi time travel, accompanied by a burst of swirling cherry blossoms.

* PresentDay: [[spoiler: A portion of the sequel is set in 2012]].
* PublicDomainArtifact: In the second film, Kotone goes to Tokyo Museum and views the real Mikazuki Munechika while it's on display. [[spoiler: The artifact becomes plot relevant in the story, as it's where Kotone summons Mikazuki Munechika the tsukumogami from]].

* RainbowMotif: Rainbows are used in the second film to represent both the tsukumogami's voices and the Saniwa's ability to hear them.

* RescueArc: The second film focuses on Mikazuki Munechika's journey to the past to find [[spoiler: Yamanbagiri Kunihiro]], who went missing during a mission, with the other swords sent back in time to find both of them.

* SameCharacterButDifferent: The second film features some of the same characters as the first, but they are from a different citadel, resulting in different characterization and relationship dynamics.

* SummonToHand: {{Inverted|Trope}}; [[spoiler: Mikazuki teleports to his sword after throwing it in the second film]].

* {{Tokusatsu}}: While the original film plays out more faithfully like a normal ''Touken Ranbu'' adaptation, the sequel film draws heavily from this genre.

* YouCantFightFate: Oda Nobunaga learns this the hard way. [[spoiler: He is told by "Mumei" that the "correct" history that he avoided was his committing suicide in Honnouji Temple and having his remains burned to nothing there, only for Mikazuki to lead him to Azuchi Castle where he was actually supposed to die, with everything happening the same way - being betrayed by a former friend, the fire, being cornered by his enemies, and finally, being forced to commit suicide]].

* BrainwashedAndCrazy: [[spoiler: Kurikara Gou, who was under the influence of the Historical Retrograde Army for a good portion of the films run]].

** In the sequel's opening sequence, 20 Touken Danshi from the browser game appear as silhouettes behind Mikazuki Munechika, although among them, only Yamanbagiri Kunihiro, Yamanbagiri Chougi, Kogarasumaru, Horikawa Kunihiro, Ichigo Hitofuri, Heshikiri Hasebe, Higekiri and Hizamaru play major roles in the films plot. [[spoiler: The others briefly show up at the end to help in the extermination of the Historical Revisionists, along with some Touken Danshi from other citadels]].

** In the sequel's opening sequence, a number of Touken Danshi from the browser game appear as silhouettes behind Mikazuki Munechika. They return in the movie's climax to help in the extermination of the Historical Revisionists, the group including include Ookanehira, Tsurumaru Kuninaga, Izuminokami Kanesada, and a plethora of Touken Danshi.

* CherryBlossoms:
** Cherry blossoms, like the browser game from which this film is adapted, appear frequently throughout both films, most notably when the Touken Danshi are time traveling.
** Cherry blossoms are also featured heavily in the second film, flying around whenever the Touken Danshi teleport and, for some reason, are in bloom when the Touken Danshi travel to modern day despite the film being set in September.

* ConnectedAllAlong: [[spoiler: While anyone familiar with the sword's history is aware that Hideyoshi Toyotomi possessed Mikazuki Munechika at some point, it is not mentioned in the film until PlotTwist, when it is revealed that Hideyoshi brought Mikazuki to his assassination of Oda Nobunaga, allowing Mikazuki to witness Nobunaga's true death as it occurred]].
* CrazyJealousGuy: [[spoiler: Heshikiri Hasebe almost seems jealous that Mikazuki is "preventing" everyone from visiting the Saniwa and claims it's suspicious when no one else seems to mind. He later whines about Mikazuki consulting with the Saniwa again, only for Uguisumaru to tell him to stop complaining. He also outright attacks Mikazuki for joking about his devotion]].
* DefiantToTheEnd: [[spoiler: Mori Ranmaru goes out fighting, causing great sorrow to Fudou Yukimitsu, the sword with which he fought his last battle]].

** [[spoiler: It takes almost the whole movies runtime, but when Oda Nobunaga finally accepts his fate, he does so with dignity, kindly asking his blade Yagen Toushirou to assist in making his death possible]].
** [[spoiler: Mikazuki Munechika was very ready to die after finally reaching limit while fighting off the Historical Revisionists, but was thankfully saved just in time by the other Touken Danshi being sent back to save him]].

* FlashyProtagonistsBlandExtras: DownplayedTrope in the first film, as while the Touken Danshi stood out more due to their brightly colored outfits and technicolor hair, both Oda Nobunaga and Hideyoshi Toyotomi, as well as their men, had flashy costumes as well, making them about as visually interesting as them. This is PlayedStraight in the second film, however, as all the human characters the Touken Danshi encounter in modern times all look extremely ordinary when placed next to them, [[IntendedAudienceReaction with this contrast being the point]].

** [[spoiler: Early in the film, the Saniwa gets offended by Mikazuki Munechika's constant reference to himself as a "old man" despite physically appearing much younger. While this is initially played off as a joke and bonding moment between the two, it later becomes plot important when it's revealed that the Saniwa's power is waning with his advanced age, and that his loss of power is weakening Honmaru]].
** [[spoiler: When they discuss their historical backgrounds, Yagen mentions that he has forgotten parts of his past due to being burned in a fire, but it isn't as bad as Honebami forgetting his entire past identity. However, it is revealed that Yagen's memory is worse than he realized, as he had forgotten that he was burned with Oda Nobunaga in Azuchi Castle, not the Honnouji Temple]].
** [[spoiler: When discussing why Mikazuki would want to help Oda Nobunaga, Yagen points out that he was never historically owned by Nobunaga. In the film's plot twist, it is revealed that Oda Nobunaga did want to own Mikazuki, but that his friend turned betrayer Hideyoshi Toyotomi had Mikazuki instead, and brought him to the burning of Azuchi Castle, allowing Mikazuki to witness the correct history as it was happening]].
* ForgottenFirstMeeting: [[spoiler: Due to having been burned in a fire some hundreds of years before the story takes place, Honebami Toushirou lost his memories of both his former friend Mikazuki Munechika, whom he spent a long time with under the ownership of the Ashikaga family, and his brother Yagen Toushirou, and doesn't recognize either of them when he's reunited with them in Honmaru]].

* TheGhost: It is mentioned that there are more Touken Danshi in Honmaru than the ones shown in the movie, but because of how fiercely the Historical Revisionists have started to attack the various eras, they are all on their own missions. [[spoiler: They all show up in the movies ending, and in it's sequel]].
* JerkassHasAPoint: [[spoiler: Heshikiri Hasebe is at his worst in this film, with his control freak tendencies and possessiveness over the Saniwa, even attacking Mikazuki in the mid-point of the film over it, but he does make a valid point about Mikazuki being overly secretive about his plans and how not telling everyone helps no one, which even Nihongou admits to agreeing with him on despite trusting that Mikazuki has a plan]].
* HealingPotion: [[spoiler: Yagen gives Mikazuki one to heal from his injuries during the final battle. It's effects are instantaneous]].

* HeWhoMustNotBeSeen: Notably averted for the Saniwa. [[spoiler: In this film, the Saniwa is an adult man who is frequently seen behind a semi-transparent curtain when interacting with the Touken Danshi. In the end, he is replaced by a little girl]].
* HostageSituation: [[spoiler: Nobunaga holds Honebami hostage with knife at his throat in a desperate attempt to manipulate Mikazuki into safely escorting him out of Azuchi Castle. When Mikazuki refuses, Nobunaga simply throws Honebami aside rather than killing him, showing that he was bluffing]].

* ItsAllMyFault: [[spoiler: Part of the reason Mikazuki goes all in on his plan to deal with Oda Nobunaga in his own way is that he believes Oda Nobunaga escaping alive was a mistake on his plan due to his lack of caution, and he feels even more shame when the Saniwa tries to shift the blame from him to himself. Despite Uguisumaru's attempts to reassure him that neither of them is to blame, he abruptly resigns as secretary out of guilt and beats himself up about it, with this guilt-ridden mindset influences his rash actions for the rest of the film]].
* LastNameBasis: [[spoiler: Oda Nobunaga refers to Mikazuki exclusively as "Munechika" after accepting him as his escort.]]

* LockedOutOfTheLoop: [[spoiler: Everyone except Mikazuki, the Saniwa, and Uguisumaru was locked out of the loop due to the risk that would be posed by telling them the truth]].

* MakeWrongWhatOnceWentRight: As is customary in the ''Touken Ranbu'' series, the story kicks off with the Historical Retrograde Army attempting to mess with time, prompting the Touken Danshi to be dispatched by the Saniwa to stop them.
* TheMedic: [[spoiler: Yagen serves as this for his unit, and can be seen patching up Yamanbagiri and Honebami's injuries after the Akechi Mitsuhide incident]].

* TheMovie: It serves as the first live action film for the ''Touken Ranbu'' series.
* MusclesAreMeaningless: [[spoiler: Physically, Mikazuki doesn't appear to be any stronger than the other swords in his team, but where they struggled against the enemy Oodachi's blows, he is able to stop one of his blows one-handedly and without exerting any effort]].

* NonStandardCharacterDesign: [[spoiler: [[CanonForeigner Kurikara Gou]]'s design calls more to mind a Wakizashi than what you would expect from a Tantou in the ''Touken Ranbu'' series]].

* OutOfFocus: [[spoiler: After the first mission, Fudou Yukimitsu spends a good chunk of the film offscreen after being told to rest in Honmaru by the Saniwa while the rest of his team and Honebami go and handle the Oda Nobunaga situation]].

* PlotTwist: [[spoiler: The "correct" history did not include Oda Nobunaga dying in the Honnouji Incident. He actually escaped Honnouji Temple thanks to Ranmaru and went to Azuchi Castle, where he was destined to die by fire and suicide after being betrayed by his former friend Hideyoshi Toyotomi. As an added twist, not only was Mikazuki never assisting Oda Nobunaga in defying his fate, but he was also the only one who knew about the "correct" history because he was there to witness it when he was in the possession of Hideyoshi Toyotomi]].

* PublicDomainArtifact: [[spoiler: In the second movie, Kotone goes to the actual Tokyo Museum to see the real Mikazuki Munechika blade while it is on display. This real artifact plays a crucial role in the story because it is where Kotone conjures up the character Mikazuki Munechika from]].

** [[spoiler: The new Saniwa is completely silent]].
* RagtagBunchOfMisfits: The unit sent to deal with the Honnouji Incident is one of the most disorganized in the ''Touken Ranbu'' series. [[spoiler: Mikazuki is shady and secretive, [[{{Jerkass}} Hasebe is petulant]], [[NaiveNewcomer Honebami has no idea why he's fighting or why protecting history is important]], both Yagen and Yamanbagiri are socially isolated from the others, and Fudou Yukimitsu is a depressed drunk. [[OnlySaneMan Nihongou]] is the group's only somewhat rational member, and that's only because he wants to believe Mikazuki has good intentions after coincidentally overhearing his conversation with Uguisumaru. Beyond Nihongou's attempts to play the open-minded peacekeeper, there is no sense of trust, camaraderie, or understanding between anyone in the group compared to previous teams. That said, they all still have the same goal in mind: to do whatever it takes to keep history on the right track, even if it means killing one of their own to ensure that happens]].

* SuddenlyVoiced: [[spoiler: While the HRA are usually unvoiced throughout the series, the enemy Oodachi the Touken Danshi encounter can talk [[EvilSoundsDeep and it sounds terrifying]]]].
* SummonToHand: {{Inverted|Trope}}; [[spoiler: Mikazuki teleports to his sword after throwing it]].
* TheChosenMany: Like in the browser game from which this film is adapted, there is no single Saniwa chosen to protect history, but rather many assigned to different citadels, each with their own Touken Danshi, although the first film only focuses on one. The second film expands on this concept with the introduction of temporary Saniwa, then revealing at the end that anyone has the potential to become a Saniwa so long as they have the ability to hear the voices of tsukumogami.

* UnusuallyUninterestingSight:
** [[spoiler: As usual with the ''Touken Ranbu'' series, no one seems to notice how usual the Touken Danshi look compared to the humans in the setting]].
** [[spoiler: Even with their unnaturally gray skin and glowing red eyes, Oda Nobunaga never seems perturbed by the presence of the demon-like Historical Retrograde Army. He also readily accepts that "Mumei" and Mikazuki aren't human]].
* UnwittingPawn: {{Downplayed|Trope}} in the case of Oda Nobunaga. [[spoiler: He isn't stupid, as he immediately questions Mikazuki's motivations for wanting to help him despite previously wanting him dead, and he only allows Mikazuki to accompany him to Azuchi Castle in the first place because he has no choice, given that the majority of his allies died at Honnouji Temple. Even then, he still makes it explicitly clear that he doesn't trust him. However, by the time he fully realizes what Mikazuki has led him into, it's already too late for him to find another way out of the situation, and he's forced to accept his fate]].
* WellIntentionedExtremist: [[spoiler: Mikazuki, as expected. His intentions are good, but he keeps his unit in the dark about everything, from the Saniwa situation to how he plans to deal with the Oda Nobunaga situation, causing dissent and conflict within the unit. It was later revealed that he kept the truth hidden from everyone because revealing it would jeopardize his plans, especially if the Historical Retrograde Army found out and attempted to prevent Oda Nobunaga's real death from happening]].

* SequelHook: [[spoiler: The film concludes with the Touken Danshi entertaining their new Saniwa while Mikazuki muses with the old one about having more to cherish and protect now. The film did receive a sequel after this, which was released in 2023]].
* SixthRanger: [[spoiler: Kurikara Gou becomes this to the team at the end of the film, as he assists them in defeating the enemy Oodachi and can be seen playing with the new Saniwa with them. In the sequel, however, he's DemotedToExtra]].
* StealthHiBye: [[spoiler: At the end of their first mission, the group stands outside Honnouji Temple, discussing Nobunaga's fate as it burns down, without Mikazuki, who is still inside at the time. Then, one shot later, he's suddenly behind them, telling them it's time to go home while smiling calmly. They all turn around to look at him, as perplexed as the audience at how he got there so quickly]].

* TheChosenMany: [[spoiler: While the first film hinted that there are more Saniwa than the ones shown, the second confirms that anyone has the potential to become a Saniwa, and quite a few are shown throughout the film]].
* TalkingIsAFreeAction: [[spoiler: The characters sure have a lot of casual conversations while the buildings they’re in burn down around them]].

* UnusuallyUninterestingSight: [[spoiler: Even with their unnaturally gray skin and glowing red eyes, Oda Nobunaga never seems perturbed by the presence of the demon-like Historical Retrograde Army. He also readily accepts that "Mumei" and Mikazuki aren't human, as well as that Mikazuki is the famous blade Mikazuki Munechika]].
* UnwittingPawn: [[spoiler: DownplayedTrope; Oda Nobunaga isn't stupid, as he immediately questions Mikazuki's motives for wanting to help him after initially wanting to him dead when they have a brief respite after escaping from a battle with "Mumei." However, Mikazuki successfully lures him into a false sense of security in order to achieve his goal of forcing Nobunaga to accept his fate of dying as history intended, and ultimately succeeds]].

** In the sequels opening sequence, a number of Touken Danshi from the browser game appear as silhouettes behind Mikazuki Munechika. They return in the movie's climax to help in the extermination of the Historical Revisionists, the group including include Ookanehira, Tsurumaru Kuninaga, Izuminokami Kanesada, and a plethora of Touken Danshi.

* IntercontinuityCrossover: Ishikirimaru from the ''Theatre/MusicalToukenRanbu'' continuity shows up in the sequels climax to help exterminate the Historical Revisionists.

* CrossOver: Ishikirimaru from the ''Theatre/MusicalToukenRanbu'' continuity shows up in the sequels climax to help exterminate the Historical Revisionists.

* AChildShallLeadThem: [[spoiler: Due to his advanced age, which causes his powers to wane, the original Saniwa is replaced at the end of the film by a young girl. The Touken Danshi welcome the change and can be seen entertaining their new Saniwa before the film ends]].
* AdaptationPersonalityChange: [[spoiler: In the first film, while most of his expected characteristics are otherwise intact, Mikazuki is portrayed in the first live-action film as decidedly being a loner and distant outside of his friendship with the Saniwa, with Yagen and Yamanbagiri's comments about him implying he's always stayed to himself. This is the opposite of how Mikazuki is typically depicted, as in the original browser game and its various spin-offs, he is fairly pleasant with his peers and forms friendships with a wide range of Touken Danshi]].
* AdaptedOut: [[TeamPet Konnosuke]] doesn’t appear in this film, although there is a brief shot of a Kudagitsune statue that resembles him.

* AmbiguouslyHuman: [[spoiler: The Saniwa. He looks human and is apparently susceptible to human aging, but he is never seen outside of his room, and when he is seen within his room, he is only shown in an unmoving seated position, even when he isn't meeting with the Touken Danshi.After years of service, the Saniwa is also revealed to need to be [[DeadlyEuphemism "transferred out"]] due to his magic fading, a process that causes him to vanish from existence when it completes, leaving only the pendant through which he channels his magic behind for the new Saniwa to inherit]].
* AmbiguousEnding: [[spoiler: At the end of the second film, Kotone returns to the Tokyo Museum to see Mikazuki Munechika on display in sword form and can apparently hear his voice, calling his name as she did earlier in the film to summon him, though the movies ends before it's made clear if she was able to summon him to human form again]].

* CherryBlossoms: Cherry blossoms, like the browser game from which this film is adapted, appear frequently throughout both films, most notably when the Touken Danshi are time traveling. In the second film, cherry blossoms bloom around Mikazuki as he teleports.
* CommonalityConnection: Nihongou and Fudou Yukimitsu bond over their shared love of alcohol.

* CrossOver: Ishikirimaru from the ''Theatre/TouMyu'' continuity shows up in the sequels climax to help exterminate the Historical Revisionists.
