[[WMG: Hanzo Hattori has played a major role in all 3 games so far.]]
You've never seen him, though, because he's practically perfected the art of ninjutsu, to the point where he can effectively hide his presence from interdimensional voyeurs. Of course, considering his lord's most loyal retainer is a goddamned robot, maybe this guess isn't so wild after all.

* Yoshiaki does mention how he waited for the return of Oda when you play as Oda on his stage. Meaning he didn't expect him to stay dead. Tenkai is doing it for the obvious reason. It would increase their chances of success if they worked together. The two of them will also try to backstab each other near the end since they want Oda to return for different reasons.

The chronological release of SamuraiWarriors ''SamuraiWarriors'' and SengokuBasara ''SengokuBasara'' are as follows (Japanese releases):



Now, if we look at the timeline, Naoe Kanetsugu was first introduced in ''SamuraiWarriors 2'' by KOEI, as a fairly serious figure and judging by how they like getting the Tokugawa as the eventual villain, they team Kanetsugu up with Yukimura and Mitsunari, and they form the main PowerTrio, which thanks to Yukimura being the poster boy, they get to be the heroes.

So, come ''WarriorsOrochi'', Koei decidedly picked two of ''Basara'''s poster boys, Masamune and Keiji, and turn them into Orochi's underlings (CharacterDerailment or not, YourMileageMayVary). They obviously can't do it with Yukimura since Yukimura is also their poster boy. This status quo continues to ''WarriorsOrochi 2''.

*** This may actually go way back before SengokuBasara 2. Before that, there was ''Kessen 3'', which gives OdaNobunaga a sympathetic light. Which would be okay, if KOEI didn't include that one scene where Nobunaga slays Akechi Hidemitsu AKA Samanosuke, protagonist of ''{{Onimusha}}''. Capcom did not take the treatment of their Onimusha's main protagonist well, so they retaliated with Kanetsugu's portrayal, continuing the fire.

* Although they did give a pretty blatant TakeThat to Basara's portrayal of Motonari:
-->Motonari: Please, be careful what you say. Reputations are easily made and lost. Who knows, history may record me as a cold-hearted, ruthless and brilliant tactician.
-->Ginchiyo: I wouldn't worry about that. Historians tend to prefer the facts too much.

[[WMG: With Nobunaga and Hideyoshi out of the picture, there can only be one more [[BigBad Big Bad]] for Sengoku Basara 3: Amakusa Shiro]]

[[SamuraiShodown Samurai Shodown]] and [[RurouniKenshin Rurouni Kenshin]] have both portrayed this guy for a villain. And the Shimabara uprising happened during the Tokugawa era. Think about it.
* Not sure about that. The basis of Sengoku Basara 3 is Sekigahara. There's still the Osaka siege before Shimabara. Also, IIRC, Ieyasu would be long dead when Shimabara rolls in.
