## Biography

One of the Mitsurugi that bear the name Muramasa.

She is a composed and skillful Mitsurugi, as her appearance sends chills up one's back.

However, that is purely one side of her during missions. Despite being the reserved type and unlikely to express her emotions, she is in fact very gentle and kind-hearted.

While she is more than capable to overcome almost everything by herself, she does not dislike others. On the contrary, she loves talking to those who she sympathizes with.

She is usually on the receiving end of many false misunderstandings that stemmed from her cold aura and hateful origin, and is slightly disheartened by the rumors that emerged from many repeating unfortunate accidents.

## Special Info

When you get sent flying and knocked down by an enemy's attack, press the attack button to assume defensive stance while performing an automatic counterattack.

Connecting a counterattack will prevent yourself from being unable to move for a while after being knocked down, as well as knocking down your enemy.

Taking defensive stance will make it easier to prevent situations where you receive enemy attack continuously. When you get sent flying by an attack, here's a tip: either repeatedly press the attack button, or hold the button in order to surely enter defensive stance. Keep this in mind when using Senji Muramasa.

## History

* Because of their exquisite sharpness, Muramasa swords were favored especially by the samurai of Mikawa (led by Tokugawa Ieyasu, the founder of the Tokugawa shogunate, and his ancestors). Naturally, when a misfortune happens in the Tokugawa clan, it is often related to Muramasa, definitely not because they are "cursed," but simply because most Mikawa samurai used these swords. Matsudaira Kiyoyasu, a grandfather of Ieyasu, was mistakenly killed by his own vassal Abe Masatoyo with a Muramasa. Ieyasu's father Matsudaira Hirotada was also stabbed with a Muramasa by Iwamatsu Hachiya, who lost his mind by excessive drinking. When Ieyasu's first son Matsudaira Nobuyasu was forced to commit suicide (*seppuku*), his beheader (*kaishakunin*) Amagata Michitsuna used a Muramasa.

* In spite of these unfortunate incidents, Tokugawa Ieyasu and his generation seemed to greatly appreciate Muramasa weapons. Ieyasu himself owned two swords forged by Muramasa and left them to his family; as of 2013, the Owari-Tokugawa family still holds one of the two as an heirloom. Honda Tadakatsu, one of the Four Greatest Generals under Ieyasu, wielded Tonbogiri, a legendary spear forged by Fujiwara Masazane, who studied under the Muramasa school. Sakai Tadatsugu, another of the Four, wielded Inoshishi-giri, a sword forged by Masazane.

* Later generations in the shogunate, however, gradually came to think of Muramasa as sinister items. Arai Hakuseki, the official scholar-bureaucrat of the shogunate, commented "Muramasa is associated with not a few sinister events." Even *Tokugawa Jikki* (1849), the official history book published from the shogunate, cites *Kashiwazaki Monogatari* (柏崎物語, 1787), which tells a legend that Ieyasu regarded Muramasa as cursed items and banned them from his family, although it is clearly a fabricated story considering the heirloom of the Owari-Tokugawa family.
* In the Bakumatsu period (1853–1868), Muramasa was somehow considered to be a curse bringer against the shogunate, and thus shishi (anti-Tokugawa activists) wished to acquire Muramasa blades. Even though the school of Muramasa does not have an exalted or prestigious status to be used by the imperial family in ordinary times, a Muramasa was wielded by Prince Arisugawa Taruhito, the commander-in-chief of the Imperial Army against the Tokugawa shogunate during the Boshin War (1868-1869). To satisfy growing demand, forgeries of Muramasa blades were also often made in this period.

## Trivia

* A broken Tokugawa clan emblem can be seen on her left sleeve and her scarf.
* A total of 6 coins can be spotted on her clothes, 2 on the belt and 4 on the jacket. This coincides with the emblem of Sanada clan (Rokumonsen), one of Togukawa clan's major opponents and also their final largest obstacle in the Sengoku era.
	+ They are popularly known for their six coin crest. It was believed that the spirits of warriors needed to pay a toll before boarding the river for the afterlife. These six coins were made to pay for one of the six paths in the Buddhist afterlife (Hell, Gaki, Chikusho -Killing brutes, Asura, Man, or Heaven). It was made to insure a "pure" passage for the wearer's spirit. According to legends, this particular crest was used whenever the clan entered battle. The emblem is usually painted in gold on red banners. (Source: https://koei.fandom.com/wiki/Sanada)
* It was said that the famous general Sanada Yukimura, who opposed Tokugawa Ieyasu during the two Sieges of Osaka, owned 2 swords. One of which was a sword forged by the famous swordsmith Senji Muramasa.
* Senji Muramasa mentioned in-game that she was "under the Sanada's care" as well.
