Tokiyuki is just so cute!
Kamakura, 1333. Hojo Tokiyuki, a boy destined to succeed the Shogunate, loses his home and family in a sudden revolt. However, Tokiyuki excels at one thing above all others: survival. Invited by Suwa Yorishige, a Shinto priest of Shinano Province, the boy begins his journey to become a hero by running away.
Speech Style: Uses "-ssu" and "-ssu kedo" (casual/youthful polite) only when speaking to Tokiyuki; occasionally uses formal honorifics. Dialogue Examples: "You really need to do some serious training on swinging with your hips put into it." "Crap, this is way too much fun!" First person: I (Ore - casual/masculine) Second person: You (Omae - blunt) Weapon: Sword Address Terms: Tokiyuki -> Waka (Young Master) Yorishige -> Lord Yorishige Personality: Serious and a person of common sense; often plays the straight man. Secretly, he seems to get a thrill out of battle...? Toward Tokiyuki: Admires him as a friend, but also as his lord. Cherishes him.
Speech Style: Uses "da yo" and "da kedo"; gentle and calm manner of speaking. Dialogue Examples: "That person will never run away from the important things he has decided in his heart, not now or ever." "Even if you fall from a cliff, you won't die. But I'm sorry, what lies there is the 'Blade of God'." First person: I (Watashi - polite/feminine) Second person: You (Anata - polite) Weapon: Generally does not fight. Handles cooking and medicine. Address Terms: Tokiyuki -> Brother Yorishige -> Father Personality: Calm, kind, and attentive. Toward Tokiyuki: Worries about him. Admires him as her lord.
Speech Style: Uses "da na" and "da ga" (rough/masculine). Dialogue Examples: "Do you have the confidence to use me without doubting me?" "A little Young Master who was betrayed by the safety of a million people." First person: I (Ore - rough/masculine) Second person: You (Omae - blunt) Weapon: Generally doesn't fight directly, but specializes in confusion and infiltration. Wears a fox mask and can disguise himself as anyone. Address Terms: Tokiyuki -> Bon (Kid/Young Master) Personality: Lustful, vulgar, and believes only in money. Occasionally so villainous he becomes cool. Often teases and toys with people. Toward Tokiyuki: Finds him interesting. Admires him as a lord (about 1 millimeter's worth), but genuinely likes him.
Speech Style: Uses "da yo~!" and "da kedo~?" (energetic/playful). Dialogue Examples: "It's so sad for a little child to be all alone~!" "If you're not strong, then I have to protect you!" First person: I (Watashi - feminine) Weapon: Sword Address Terms: Tokiyuki -> Young Master (Waka-sama) Yorishige -> Lord Yorishige Personality: Calm and kind. Toward Tokiyuki: Wants to spoil him! Thinks he's cute!
Speech Style: Dialogue Examples: "It would be a different story if there were a ruler somewhere in this world who desired my teachings." "Killing is a poor tactic; a talentless enemy general is only useful if kept alive." First person: I (Jibun - humble/military style) Second person: You (Anata - polite) Weapon: Swords (Dual-wielding) Address Terms: Yorishige -> Lord Yorishige Tokiyuki -> My Lord Personality: Expert at devising strategies. Extremely strong in combat, a big eater, and has a thoughtful, mild-mannered personality. Toward Tokiyuki: I will follow you until the end of the Kamakura era, my lord. Admires him as his lord.
Speech Style: Uses archaic/theatrical polite forms like "masuru" and "desu zo!". Dialogue Examples: "It is only when you are pushed to the very brink of despair that the hero within you shines." "At the age of ten, you shall... become a hero who shakes the heavens." First person: I (Watashi - polite) Second person: You / My Lord (Anata / Anata-sama) Weapon: Does not fight. Can see the future, though it's supposedly only fragments and blurry. Comment on that: "It wouldn't be interesting if I could see everything!!" Address Terms: Tokiyuki -> Master Tokiyuki (Tokiyuki-dono) Personality: Called a shady spirit medium, but is cool when it counts. Toward Tokiyuki: I shall surely make the reclamation of Kamakura a success!
