Can't stop imagining Ikemen Sengoku but the chara is from Sengoku Basara. @masamuneskitchen @ask-yuki-and-sasuke @keiji-corner

2024.08.03 Touken Ranbu 刀剣乱舞

Photo: Blue My starter sword 始まりの一振り Happy 10 year Touken Ranbu anniversary! 10 years is such a long time - I remember I started the game at my uni dorm, and now I am out of school and working for quite a few years already. I never really count how many tourabu cosplays I have done, but my guess will be more than 20...

As a history/archaeology buff, tourabu opens another door for me - although being intrigued by sengoku period (thanks sengoku basara), I never really thought much on the craftsmanship and history of japanese swords until tourabu. Now I learn to appreciate them whenever I get to see them during my visits to Japan😊

Out of all tourabu cosplays I have, what's better to celebrate the occassion with my starter sword? Let's go back to the start!

There are rarely works that remain popular for 10 years. I wish Tourabu will have more years to come!

Yakuza 0 is a SPECTACULAR game and I'll shove my love for it in everyone's faces now

Alright, I'll take a bit of a break from regularly scheduled Basara-posting (don't worry, the next batch of imagines is getting worked on), because boy, am I full of emotions right now. This will most likely turn into a mini-series of posts, I don't know yet.

TLDR: Background of me getting into it all and me gushing about my appreciation for the game since I finally finished it. Some (at least vague) spoilers will definitely be involved, so if you haven't played the game yet, here's your warning! Also, I ramble a lot, sorry.

So, I am still fairly new to the Yakuza fandom, all things considered. While I first discovered the Yakuza/Like a Dragon series a few years ago (through a Majima meme, lol), I wasn't that into it at the start. I had other hyperfixations at the time, and it was just sort of at the background. I watched some gameplays, saw some memes, and after watching a full playthrough of Yakuza Kiwami (and a bit of Y0), I eventually decided to get Y0 and play it myself. Bought it and played for a few chapters, but then it got buried again beneath other games, even if I liked it a lot. But this year, it all just came back to me, and I decided to throw myself into it fully this time, restarting my Y0 playthrough (and engaging with the fandom a bit more).

And I'm incredibly glad I did.

At the time of writing this, I finished the game like 30 minutes ago, give or take, and I feel like I'm feeling everything right now. There aren't many games that hit me so hard. Every single second of this game just kept my eyes glued to the screen, and even when I was not playing, the feelings from the story lingered.

You know, I've been sort of living through other people's experiences with the series lately, especially here on Tumblr. Even if I don't know half of the characters everyone talks about yet, I still appreciate the funky stuff everyone here creates. I love the ridiculous memes, the sweet Minedai and Kazumaji fanarts, the kick-ass cosplays, and all the other stuff! You guys made me love it even more and keep going, so I could enjoy it even more! But I have to say, experiencing at least Yakuza 0 for myself hits so much harder than just watching a gameplay.

I got to play as a buff, scary looking man that races toy cars with kids as if his life depends on it, and constantly gets tangled up in ridiculous situations and helps people around town, all the while he's putting his life on the line to protect those he loves the most. I got to hire a chicken as a real estate manager, enjoy some karaoke with my best pal Nishiki, and save some poor ladies from terrible guys who harassed them on the street. And there was also so, so many heart-wrenching things that made me stop what I was doing, because I just hated to see Kiryu's kind, gentle heart get torn apart by the world he willingly stepped into.

I also got to play as a man that went through hell and clinged onto life through sheer determination. A man that was lost, but slowly found what was important to him through the course of the story. But even with him, I got to experience a ton of hilarious weirdness, which may or may not include things like pretending to be a desperate girl's boyfriend, beating up a cult leader or accidentally raising the taxes for all of Japan. Majima, I love you too, you crazy bastard!

All the characters are written so well, and felt very real to me the whole time. Nothing was really black and white, and even the simpler looking characters ended up being very complex most of the time. Honestly, I could ramble on and on about how it broke me to see Tachibana cry, or how much I adore Kashiwagi, even with the limited screentime. I will probably make a few more in-depth posts about certain characters and how I view their themes in the future.

But all this is to say, I'm glad that I finally took the plunge, and I am looking forward to what I have yet to experience! I even have a few OCs that I may share in the future (if I finally learn how to draw properly, that is), and maybe some fanfics, too!

After I finally 100% Ghost of Tsushima, I am definitely buying Kiwami, too! Glad to finally count myself a "proper" member of the RGG fandom ＼(￣▽￣)／

Thank you for reading my excited ramblings, and as I always say...

Have an amazing day!

Such a good day to remember the Basara Board Game I mentioned here is not just my imagination but a real thing that exists in the second (”Earth”) artbook

I didn’t translate the rules but I bet they are smth like this: “you got trapped - you lose your turn cosplaying the hanging man tarot card” or “skip two turns gathering your enemies’ coats to make a hot air balloon” or “skip three dealing with your enemy’s pregnant wife your ally brought to your war camp”. They must be so or it’s not Basara. No matter how many years will pass - these canon jokes are still funny to me

[yukipri]

not really related to your art or your writing even though both are sick as hell- i just wanted to share that everytime i see your username on my dash, i read it like how togepi in the pokemon anime would say it's name except its your username. so like, yuki-priiiiiii

Aw, that's super cute! And you're defs not the first person to say that, it's really funny how a lotta English speakers seem to make that connection!

(my url YukiPri comes from a combo of Yukimura + Princeton. When I first started this blog waaay back in the day 10+ years ago, it was my first fandom social media, and I made it specifically to keep in touch with some Sengoku Basara cosplayers I met at a con. I cosplayed Sanada Yukimura. There was also another person cosplaying the same character, so they called me the Princeton Yukimura, since that's where I was going to University at the time. Hence Yuki + Pri!

I've thought about it changing since, but now a lot of social media sites are old, and a lot of the shorter, catchier urls are long taken, and I've already sorta built my brand around YukiPri. So eh. It's fine, I don't hate it! It's also why I have a separate handlename, "Kazu" in addition to my brand/url ^ ^;

And there's your sudden impromptu YukiPri history lesson lmao)

Klepto plays Sengoku Basara 4 Sumeragi - Ishida Mitsunai Drama Route & Anime Route

I absolutely LOVE the Sengoku Basara series, but haven't played it for a couple years, and it's so good to get back to it and remember how much I love it! Starting off with Mitsunari's route because he's one of my faves and I’ll be making this cosplay next year!

[g1-skywarp]

this was supposed to be masamune sengoku basara cosplaying as captain harlock from captain harlock buuuut I ended up drawing the actual character instead lol.

Anyways back to suffering from spm

[lygerzero14]

For several years, I was obsessed with Sengoku Basara. Such an over the top, ridiculous video game similar to Dynasty Warriors but more like Dragonball Z meets Samurai.

I got nostalgic when I recently started watching Gakuen Basara and dug out my collection.

(Still surprised that it got a English dub despite being so niche)
