===Personality===
Yoshinaka could not overlook the Taira clan's tyranny during the Genpei War, but while he said that the reason he fought was to stand up to the Taira in the name of all of Japan, the truth was more selfish: he simply wanted a peaceful future where he and Tomoe could be together.Fate/Grand Order: Epic of Remnant - Shimosa Province: The Stage of Rivers of Blood and Mountains of Corpses - Section 6: Seconda Cantica: Inferno (Ending) There is nothing he wants in a world without her, and nothing he desires but to be with her.Fate/Samurai Remnant - Digression: Edged Glint of Morning Light
In Fate/Samurai Remnant he is single-minded in his pursuit of Ushi Gozen, and cares about nothing else going on in the Waxing Moon Ritual besides defeating her. According to Yoshinaka, it is the role of the Asahi Shogun to stand against the darkness of oni. The reason for his obsession with slaying evil oni is because of Tomoe being a good oni; it is because of his love for his wife's good nature that he detests evil oni operating from the shadows.While he uses his Oni mask as a form of self-suggestion to make himself aggressive, determined, and single-minded in his pursuit of Ushi Gozen, when he takes it off, his demeanor and tone is more relaxed and gentle.

Yoshinaka is largely able to resist Tsuchimikado Yasuhiro's mind control spell, though he does fall under it briefly. He teams up with Miyamoto Iori and Yamato Takeru to defeat Yasuhiro so that he can keep focusing on Ushi Gozen once he's out of the way.Fate/Samurai Remnant - Chapter IV: The Gods Stir

Yoshinaka was able to resist Tsuchimikado Yasuhiro's mind control on seperate ocassions with the exception of one route, where he was eventually overwhelmed by his Spell.

===Skills===
====Class Skills====
*Magic Resistance (B Rank): Resistance to Magecraft that renders incantations under three lines ineffective. It would be difficult to break through even with greater magecraft or rituals. 
*Riding (A Rank): The ability to expertly ride mounts. It enables the user to freely control all beasts other than those of divine and phantasmal ranking. Yoshinaka has been shown riding his horse in battle numerous times, making other people initially mistake him as a Rider. His horse is also capable of flight.
*Independent Action (EX Rank): Allows action even without a Master present. Noble Phantasms can be activated on one's own initiative, but it comes at a great cost if the master is absent. Thanks to this skill, Yoshinaka is an exception among the Stray Servants of the Waxing Moon Ritual just like Samson. His Saint Graph is not bound by the Leylines.
===Personal Skills===
===Noble Phantasms===
Yoshinaka's main Noble Phantasm is Oṃ Ālolik Svāhā. He tried to use it against Jeanne d'Arc during their first encounter, however, Jeanne overpowered him with Flamme Pays Étranger instead. This attack wasn't powerful enough to defeat Ushi Gozen's Ox-King Reversal - Frenzied Tempest even after having weakened it previously by cutting off its Magical Energy supply. However, it managed to push it back a few meters, turning the tide in the protagonist's favor.
His second Noble Phantasm is Press the Attack - Kurikara Pass.
