Shinken Oodachi

Go To

Shinken Girls who wield Oodachi. They have the greatest offense and defense of all units, but at the cost of having high energy consumption.

Taking advantage of their wide range, they can be placed in the frontline to wear down enemy morale, making them an easy unit type. Even if they're placed carelessly, they will still deal a lot of damage to the enemy and, in turn, rarely take damage.

The drawback to these units is that they have the lowest speed of any unit in the game, making them more difficult to use when it comes to enemies that cannot be defeated in one hit or for them to attack multiple enemies.


     Hotarumaru Aso 
Characters in Shinken Oodachi
A bright, energetic, and earnest girl who never gives up, no matter what. Although she is frugal due to her poverty, she does make exceptions for sweets such as juice from her favorite candy shop.

Guided by a ray of hope that never fades even in difficult times, she bonded with the oodachi Hotarumaru Kunitoshi.


  • Determinator: She never gives up, no matter how tough the situation is.
  • Perpetual Poverty: She's introduced as a frugal high school student due to her poverty, and since this aspect of her life is integral to her characterization, her financial situation never improves.
  • The Pollyanna: Despite originating from an impoverished home, she remains sweet and cheerful, holding onto hope for a better future.

     Kashiwa Ayame 
A lively girl with a boyish seriousness. She comes from the same region as Nenekiri Futara and Senobori Daiya, but both treat her like a child. She hates losing and enjoys competitions.

Her courage led her to bond with the oodachi Kashiwadachi.


  • The Baby of the Bunch: Her actual age is unknown, but Daiya and Futata treat her like a child, and from her dialogue, she implies that she's the youngest of the trio.
  • Competition Freak: Less so than Raiko but she enjoys the thrill of competing with others and hates losing.
  • Height Angst: Despite the sword she wields, which is taller than her, she is on the shorter side, which she justifies by frantically saying she's not small but still in her growth period.
  • Sore Loser: While not as dramatic as Kachina or Raiko when it comes to losing, she gets depressed if defeated in battle and sulks around the mansion afterward.
  • Tomboy: She's noted for her excitable, tomboyish personality.

     Senobori Daiya 

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/img_9570_8.png
A Shinken Girl who combines beauty and dignity, exuding a a refined and calm demeanor, but sometimes coming off as condescending. She comes from the same region as Kashiwa Ayame and Nenekiri Futara.

Her excellent ability to judge situations led her to form a bond with the oodachi Senobori no Tachi.


  • Spoiled Sweet: She comes from a privileged background but is usually polite, save for the few moments where she unintentionally implies that she doesn’t see the player as her equal.
  • Tsundere: At High Affection, her way of confessing to the player is by telling them that she doesn’t hate them.

     Nenekiri Futara 
A tall and athletic Shinken Girl. She is a member of the volleyball club. She has a tendency to believe that everything that she thinks is right and doesn’t listen to other peoples opinions.

She forms a bond with the oodachi Nenekirimaru because of her tendency to act before thinking.


  • Friend or Foe?: Implied. She claims to find it troublesome to distinguish between enemies and allies, implying that she has or would attack an ally on the battlefield if she can’t differentiate between them.
  • Gentle Giant: She's one of the taller Shinken Girls, and she has to be, given that she wields a sword even bigger than herself, but she's fairly kind to the player when she's in their care, even before they raise her affection levels.

     Naganori Izumo 
A physically-minded Shinken Girl. Although she is particular about her muscles, she comes off as particularly indifferent about swords, but only because she believes that one she masters the technique, the quality of the sword is meaningless.

Her desire to inherit tradition allowed her to form a bond with the oodachi Izumo no Kami Naganori.


  • Bifauxnen: Downplayed. She has a masculine face but wouldn’t otherwise be mistaken for a boy.
  • NO INDOOR VOICE: The vast majority of the voiceovers are of her shouting.
