**Taimanin Asagi Battle Arena** (**対魔忍アサギ～決戦アリーナ～**) or ***Taimanin Asagi ~Kessen Arena~*** was a free-to-play, battle card game by Lilith. It was originally released for browser play, July 21, 2014 in Japan and Global, September 2, 2018. Both versions, have ended at this point in 2019 and 2023.

Took place in the Taimaninverse but outside the main canon of the Visual Novels. It was massive crossover with characters from multiple games. The character cards could be won in a gacha or by points in events. Most unit cards, feature stories that are hypothetical "what if" scenarios and unlock their true power by a mechanic called "discipline", which also unlocks a "Harem" Scene. The main protagonist of **TABA** was Fuuma Kotaro. Taimanin Asagi Battle Arena takes place instead of the events of Taimanin Asagi 3, in an alternative timeline. This timeline is referred to as the TABA Universes on this wiki.

## Summary

Fuuma Kotaro has given up on Gosha Village and the Taimanin. As heir to the Fuuma clan he wants to insert himself into the power struggle between the three major forces (Taimanin, UFS and Demons) and gain supremacy over all of them, rebuilding his fallen clan in the process. At the start, Kotaro and his loyal servant Fuuma Tokiko are all that remains of the clan.

Kotaro's Ninja Art is the ability to steal the special powers and techniques of those he touches; a method he uses to gain advantage over his opponents, most of whom are considerably stronger than him; building a stronger New Fuuma Clan in the process. His chief method of strengthening his forces is to capture his female enemies, and force them to become loyal to him through means of (mostly sexual) violation, torture, degradation, or overwhelming pleasure until the subject becomes so addled (Or 'Mind Broken') that they'll do anything he asks.

Most of the plot is told in limited-time events, outside the core chapters of the game, where he is joined by younger versions of Sakura and Murasaki from another dimension, and the more comical Lilim and Minasaki, a pair of mischievous succubi Demons.

As a Gacha game, there are a myriad of characters to meet and collect, something that has led to the world of Taimanin to significantly grow. It is a matter of debate, however, how many, if any, of these new characters exists in other games in the series, let alone if they are relevant at all. However, it is likely that all of them exist in all other Taimanin games and just go unmentioned and are background characters, unless they actually show up in any form or role.

## Story **Prologue**

Tokiko informs Kotaro that work has been completed on the New Fuuma Clan Headquarters. Their story is then told to the player: They are the only clan members left after a failed coup against the Taimanin, lead by Fuuma Danjou, his father, who then fled to the UFS.

Tokiko suggests three possible targets to enhance their strength and weaken the enemy, one from each major faction: Ingrid, Sakura or Asuka. Regardless of the player's choice, none of them are canonically captured, as they all appear in future events working with their respective factions, with no reference made to their supposed subjugation.

### **Chapter 1 - A Newbie Taimanin**

Fuuma Tokiko informs Fuuma Kotarou of a potential new recruit for his group: a novice Taimanin named Maezono Momoko, who is on a mission in Tokyo Kingdom City. The pair evade multiple demons during their search before they fight, defeat, and abduct Momoko, intending to turn her into a servant of their new Fuuma Clan.

### **Chapter 2 - The New Assault Weapon**

Tokiko obtains new intel that the UFS will soon hold a mock battle in a forest to test a potentially high grade secret weapon. Wishing to steal it, Kotarou and Tokiko fight their way through the forest, and encounter Jane Bradlowe, a UFS soldier who is wielding the new weapon herself, identifying it as the "Wind Assault System" (High-Tech Gloves). Kotarou and Tokiko knock her out, and elect to bring both the weapon and Jane herself back to headquarters to put them both to work for the Fuuma Clan.

### **Chapter 3 - Faith of the Demons**

Kotarou decides to take down the group and to recruit the bodyguard. Finding the bodyguard Nilnia after a short fight involving her, some soldiers and Tokiko and Kotarou, she is defeated, captured and taken home to be broken into their service. The group is left permanently crippled by these events and ceases to exist afterward.

### **Chapter 4 - Scent of a Taimanin**

A Taimanin spy informs Kotarou about an Ogidou-clan Taimanin that infiltrated a school in Tokyo. Wanting to gain the ability to control pheromones, as some clan members are able to, Kotarou sneaks into the Academy at night to capture the clan member. As it turns out, both the Ogidou clan member and some other, weaker, Taimanin, were protecting an unidentified VIP. They eventually encounter Sendou Nazuna (also known as Ogidou Nazuna), who is their target, and proceed to quickly capture her and escape the scene after a brief fight. The pheromone control provided by Nazuna turning out to be very useful when "disciplining" new recruits and controlling other members.

### **Chapter 5 - Beastly Assassin**

An upcoming trade meeting is actually a trap by the UFS to assassinate Kotaro and raid their underwater base. Kotaro and Tokiko learn that the attack will be led by assassin Rick Milliard and her squad. Deciding to take the initiative, Kotaro prepares accordingly and strikes first. With the help of Momoko they are able to defeat multiple enemies easily and gain more intel. Finding Rick Milliard, they are able to defeat her and capture her on the spot, adding her to their group and thwarting the UFS's plans.

### **Chapter 6 - Dark Spider**

The ever-growing new Fuuma Organization of Kotarou is attacked by a demon. They take heavy casualties, mostly of their minor members, so Kotarou and Tokiko roam Tokyo Kingdom to find her. After defeating some Nomad members, they face of against the Arachni, Raqua. Raqua explains that she attacked the Fuuma HQ in order to lure Kotaro out, as she was curious about her powers and wanted to see it with her own eyes. Running away for a while and fighting, she is in the end also is captured and later disciplined by Kotarou's orcs.

### **Chapter 7 - Wolf of the Moon**

A new UFS weapon is about to be traded, the trade will be led by an UFS soldier known as "The wolf that dances on the moon". Kotarou and Tokiko learn of this and decide to go to the hotel in which the trade will take place. Having stolen the weapon, they are completely surrounded and have to fight their way out, facing off against Moonwolf, the previously mentioned soldier. Defeating her in combat, she requests death, but Kotaro refuses and takes her as prisoner to be broken later.

### **Chapter 8 - Dark Resistance**

Members of the supply team of the Fuuma faction are being attacked by Taimanin and request an emergency rescue. Kotaro and Tokiko arrive at the scene, but they are forced to flee into the foggy, demon filled Blood leaf Forest for now. One of the attacking Taimanin is a bojustu master, and Kotarou plans a flank attack before going in. Facing off against some minor demons of the forest and Taimanin earth masters, Rick Milliard moves up ahead to scout. Defeating a stronger earth user, Kotarou saves Tokiko and both move on. Moving through fog, they reach the bojustu master, Shijou Kisaragi and Rick, who are currently in a fight. Telling Rick to flee with the supply team, Tokiko and Kotaro fight her and eventually defeat Kisaragi, knocking her unconscious. They take her with them, hoping to convince her that he also made sure she wasn't captured by the demons in the forest, and use that to make her join them.

### **Chapter 9 - The Elf of Revenge**

Having learned about Queet, a dark elf in Amidahara, has a common enemy with him in the form of Edwin Black and is starting an open revolt against him. Kotarou wants her to join his group to enhance his demonic forces. Being informed that some of his factions members have died by some form of curse in Amidahara after searching for her, he has Raqua and Tokiko accompany him in their expedition. After arriving in Amidahara, Raqua requests a short stop by Madame Noi's Magic Store to learn about Queet and the curse. There, they learn about Queet's power, the Dimension Arrow, that can pass through any obstacle and pierces the mind of the target. Hoping to use the current distortions in Amidahara, they rush to the lair of Laini Queet. Facing her, Kotarou asks if she wants to be his ally, as they also want Edwin Black to disappear. Queet agrees that she seeks revenge for her clan but rejects to work with Fuuma, as dark elves never ally with humans, unless he wishes to be her servant. A fight ensues and after winning the fight, Queet allowed Kotarou to be **her** servant. Kotarou responds by capturing her and Tokiko requests that he discipline Queet accordingly, eventually leading to an alliance being formed under **his** terms.

### **Chapter 10 - Forced Invasion**

The UFS makes a large scale siege against Kotarou's base. The hideout is given up and Kotarou requests an evacuation of noncombatants.

Jane and Rick act as a distraction while Queet, Kisaragi and Nazuna keep everyone save. Kotarou and Tokiko, face multiple enemies that broke the gates, but Moonwolf and Momoko go ahead to counter this as well. Learning the UFS has an interest in Raqua and Nilnia, both demons fight stronger than before to avoid capture, but no special ability user has shown itself on the UFS side yet, Rick warns everybody over radio that they have a "Dive". Still confused by the warning, they encounter Origa Alekseevna Pavlova, an assassin that is able to dive through walls (hence the "Dive" nickname). Stealing her ability with his own Ninja Art, she is defeated and captured as well. She is broken like the others and turned into a slave. Thanks to their efforts, the Fuuma Organization is able to survive the attack mostly intact and proceed to regroup in a new secret base where they will plan their next move once they recover.
