| 427 | * EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: If the player asks Nobunaga if he has ever loved anyone, he grows silent for a while, then quickly changes the subject. Considering their relationship in real life, it's very obvious that Nobunaga is thinking about Ranmaru, who had recently sacrificed himself to prove his loyalty. |
| 428 | * EvilCannotComprehendGood: He refuses to believe that humans are truly capable of altruistic actions, claiming that any sentiment of justice is just meant to deceive the weak, and outright calls Shinjiro pathetic when the hero says that he believes in a world where humanity can live in peace. |
| 429 | * HistoricalVillainUpgrade: His real-life counterpart was an infamous warlord. In this game, he's a genocidal demon bent on spreading chaos and laying waste to New York. |

| 438 | |
| 439 | One of the main antagonists in ''Sakura Wars V'', who assumes the form of a green-haired bunny girl with a scythe. He's first fought in Chapter 1, trying to blow up Liberty Island. |
| 440 | ---- |
| 441 | * BerserkButton: |
| 442 | ** Insulting or opposing his master in any way is enough to earn Ranmaru's ire. |
| 443 | ** Ranmaru grows to despise Gemini the most out of any member of the Star Division because she dared to show him mercy and spare his life. |
| 444 | * DiscOneFinalBoss: Ranmaru is built up as the main antagonist, orchestrating the attacks on New York, murdering Gemini's master Mifune and ultimately engaging the Star Division in one of the most intense battle sequences in the game. However, he is just a servant to his master Nobunaga, who becomes the one and only threat once Ranmaru goes down. |

| 446 | * DudeLooksLikeALady: Ranmaru looks and sounds very feminine, but is really a male. Unlike Subaru, his androgynous appearance is justified: Ranmaru's real-life counterpart was Nobunaga's lover. |

| 448 | * HistoricalVillainUpgrade: The real Mori Ranmaru was UsefulNotes/OdaNobunaga's most trusted servant (and a bit more than that). The same is true for this Ranmaru, but he is also given the personality of a SoftspokenSadist and demonic powers befitting of the Grim Reaper. |
| 449 | * KillerRabbit: Ranmaru resembles a rabbit. |
| 450 | * RedemptionRejection: Gemini forgives Ranmaru for murdering Mifune, asking him to go away and stop causing trouble. All this does is piss him off even further, prompting him to complete the ritual to resurrect Nobunaga as soon as he manages to escape. |
| 451 | * SinisterScythe: Both his normal form and his robot Garan fight with massive scythes. |
| 452 | * StarterVillain: Ranmaru is the first of the Demons of New York to be fought in the game, where Shinjiro must stop him from blowing up the Statue of Liberty. |
| 453 | ** StarterVillainStays: He then becomes a RecurringBoss for the New York Combat Revue throughout most of the game, right up until Nobunaga kills him in sacrifice. |
| 454 | * UndyingLoyalty: Ranmaru's defining characteristic is his mad devotion to Nobunaga, which compels him to commit truly heinous actions as he searches for a way to resurrect his former master. This reaches its peak when he ultimately sacrifices himself by pinning down Shinjiro so that Nobunaga can blast them both, showing no hesitation whatsoever. |
