Warriors Orochi (Musou Orochi; lit. "Unmatched Orochi" in Japan) is a Massive Multiplayer Crossover, Hack and Slash video game series made by Koei, crossing over their historical Warriors series (Dynasty and Samurai), with the addition of several original mystical characters sourced primarily from the Japanese and Chinese mythologies and folktales here and there. In the fourth installment, the series begin delving into Western mythologies, including Greek and Norse.In contrast to other Warriors games, Warriors Orochi features a tag team system, which allows the player to take three characters and have them fight as a single unit on the battlefield. The characters are divided into three different types: Power, Speed, and Technique, which dictate their fighting styles. Warriors Orochi 3 had a fourth type, Wonder, but it did not return in future installments.The story primarily centers on Orochi, the Demon King (or Serpent King in Western releases), who assembles warriors from the Three Kingdoms and Sengoku Jidai into a dimensional world born of chaos, where he entices them to fight both against each other and himself. Later installments put focus on other villains as Orochi is increasingly relegated to the background, although he usually has some role in the story. | |

Unexpected Gameplay Change | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_1467a30c | comment |
Unexpected Gameplay Change: The third game gets this in the form of the Yashio'ori, which you have to man and use to defeat the Hydra in the same fashion of using a ballista. While this is foreshadowed somewhat in the intro level, after spending hours in the typical Warriors tradition grinding your characters up to scale, it is quite surprising to see the gameplay jumping from the usual hack-n-slash to a Rail Shooter-esque Attack Its Weak Point level. | |

Hero Antagonist | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_1501e2dd | comment |
Hero Antagonist: Xingcai in the Wu campaign in the first game. Basically everyone you fight in the Orochi campaign in the second game, because of its nature as a Perspective Flip. Nezha and Susanoo in the third game are downplayed examples. They are hunting for Da Ji, which is completely justified...had they not overstep their methods. Several side stages in 3 are Perspective Flip of the main battles, in which the Resistance Army are the antagonists. The Ultimate expansion adds many more of these. Nobunaga in the first two chapters of the fourth game as he is allied with the Mystics who knew the events of the previous games and the forces behind the reemerging of Orochi's world. The player characters don't know about this yet and are wary of his motive until Nuwa shows up and explains everything. | |

The Worf Effect | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_178ca149 | comment |
The Worf Effect: Nezha manages to inflict this upon Lu Bu several times in the third game. Nezha himself gets this from the player. Even after you've beaten him a couple of times he'll still talk about how "impossible" it is for a human to beat him. In Ultimate, the player travels back in time to see the then-human Nezha charging straight at the newly born Orochi, who then proceeds to wipe the floor with him. The subsequent result is Nezha getting himself vaporised and had to be revived as a cyborg. Guess he never learned... Despite being War Gods, Ares and Athena gets their asses constantly kicked by the humans. Justified on Ares' case as he is an arrogant Blood Knight. But for Athena, her single-mindedness to pursue Perseus and her lack of understanding on human behavior cost her every victory despite being known as the goddess of wisdom and strategy. | |

Defeat Means Friendship | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_19769f50 | comment |
Defeat Means Friendship Sun Shangxiang befriends Ina after defeating her in combat. In the third game, a number of characters initially start off as Brainwashed and Crazy. After defeating them they come to their senses and join the heroes. Defeating the demons in the third game has them reluctantly join with the coalition. Camp dialogue implies that, even if a character has been sealed away or killed, they still are part of the same army. | |

Relationship Values | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_19a781f | comment |
Relationship Values: A major part of the third and fourth games. Each character has a group of other characters with whom they share a bond to. Increasing it via fighting together or holding feasts will lead to unlocking various passive bonuses and even special stages to unlock new characters. The fourth games adds the training camp where you can send three characters for training which increases their bonds and levels and brings new weapon, gems and weapon attributes. | |

Multiple Endings | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_1aa08f77 | comment |
Multiple Endings: Aside from the different story modes in the first two games, the third game has three endings. A normal, a good and a true ending, the latter of which you unlock by obtaining practically every character you can in the first three chapters. 3 Ultimate expands on the good ending, by offering four more chapters to the story, and features two endings: One after defeating Tamamo for the first time and one after hunting down Kyūbi at Odawara Castle. The fourth game averts this due to being linear and having one ending. Fortunately, 4: Ultimate gives two endings: one where the coalition destroy Odin's soul and the other where after collecting Perseus' fragments that would resurrect him, he tells the coalition that Hades is true Big Bad and must be defeated. | |

The Rival | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_1c3d047e | comment |
The Rival: Yoshitsune gets this, naturally, with Kiyomori. More surprisingly, he gets another... in Lu Bu. The latter however, isn't a clear-cut rivalry in the traditional sense. The third game adds Shuten D�ji to a minor extent. Also, just about every pair of rivals from their respective games, still retain that sense regardless of what side they're on. Ina and Lu Lingqi get this as they're the daughters of the strongest warriors in the Sengoku era and Three Kingdoms era. | |

Poor Communication Kills | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_1c445e86 | comment |
Poor Communication Kills: A frequent problem in WO3. Once the team uses Da Ji's memories to go back in time to before the Hydra appeared, the rest of the world maneuvers to attack them as collaborators and refuses to listen to reason until beaten into submission. Da Ji does have her own agenda, but the allies are hardly fooled. Ultimate gets it even worse, with Tamamo sending out evil doppelgängers of everyone to stir up fights between factions. And it works very well thanks to trivial misunderstandings getting several Hot-Blooded characters so worked up that they attack based on false information with no regard whatsoever. WO4 sets this problem again except this time, the characters from different time periods are randomized and grouped into four factions and there's no brainwashing involved. This led family members and friends to fight each other. This is also Zeus' biggest flaw because he never told his children about his true intentions of rebuilding the new world. Had he been open to his plans, then Ares would have never sided with the Norse gods. | |

Stealth Pun: In 4 Kyubi, an unlockable character detached from the plot, has a giant pestle as her magic artifact. She uses it to smash the ground for area of effect damage. Due to the way mechanics work killing enemies gives you charge for a super attack called a Unity Attack. You're literally grinding up enemy units for unity charge. | |

Naotora's Deification form in Warriors Orochi 4 is, to her own chagrin, the most Stripperiffic outfit from all of her alternate costumes due to being based on Aphrodite, which shows her having more skin than her default outfit. | |

Resurrect the Villain | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_1eecf6be | comment |
Resurrect the Villain: After Orochi's death in the first game, Da Ji teams up with Kiyomori to resurrect him using Himiko as a catalyst. The revived Orochi is in a different form but he's subsequently put down by the coalition. In the fourth game, he's resurrected again by Odin using Shuten Doji's body as a catalyst; however, it is Orochi X who is resurrected much to Da Ji's dismay while the original Orochi is revived somewhere. | |

Himiko, who doesn't see her actions as bad, but rather as a way to appease her best gal Da Ji, whom she genuinely loves (whether or not she loves her back is up for debate). As 3 indicates, if Da Ji is endangered, Himiko Ain't Too Proud to Beg and ask the heroes for help. | |

Ominous Latin Chanting: Used in two stage themes in the third game to great effect, especially when you consider their premises... Used and abused along with Cherubic Choir and Victorious Chorus in the fourth game thanks to the presence of Greek and Norse gods as well as the Deification feature, adding new chanted remixes of various songs as the themes of those subject to the feature. | |

"Do It Yourself" Theme Tune: For the very first time, Warriors Orochi 4 has a theme song entitled, "Kakumei no Masquerade (Warriors Orochi Version)" by Athena's voice actress, Suzuko Mimori. However, the song is actually from her 4th album, "tone" which would be adapted for the game. Warriors Orochi 4: Ultimate also has a theme song entitled, "Statice" by Gaia's voice actress, Saori Hayami. | |

Gracia. Her attack power and range are both horrible in the second game, below decent at best, and her cavalry skill is easily shut down due to the absence of the no-dismount-when-hit horse. Then you discover that single technique and proceed to kill the enemy commander from full health in under a second. Oh ho, even Orochi's trembling at the sight of her. | |

Anachronism Stew | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_259d5879 | comment |
Anachronism Stew: The Three Kingdoms era is roughly between 220-280 AD, and the Warring States period is between the 16-17th centuries, being more than a thousand years apart. This is repeatedly lampshaded; many Japanese characters are delighted to fight alongside or challenge the mighty warriors of old. The second game onward throws in a few more historical figures from different time periods, including Himiko (who, despite being Japanese, actually does live during the Three Kingdoms era), Benkei, Kiyomori Taira and Yoshitsune Minamoto (all from 12th century Japan), and Sanzang. Yoshitsune Minamoto uses what is basically a Lightsaber. 3 includes Nezha, a mystic cyborg. Plus, there are characters from the Hundred Years War, Trojan War and Modern Day. Locations fall into this as well, such as a modern-day Anegawa. | |

The Dreaded | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_2ae29c0d | comment |
The Hydra is suitably The Dreaded of 3 because of this simple reason: it manages to kill off established characters of DW and SW, something that none of the villains from the previous games were able to do. Much of the plot of 3 revolves around time travel because let's face it, you can't bring someone back from the dead, at least without resorting to nefarious powers. | |

In WO3, Yuan Shao and Himiko are this, depending on the route you take. Yuan Shao is a competent fighter, having quick, strong attacks, strong bodyguards, as well as having an unblockable Musou Attack which deals great damage, hits twice and has long range. It's a OHKO/2HKO at this point for all your characters. For the other route, there's Himiko, who has the strongest Musou Attack in the game, however it can be blocked (If you are fast enough to react). Unless your character is Lu Bu or Ryu Hayabusa, you are pretty much dead if you get hit by it. | |

Artifact Title | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_2b7d29e1 | comment |
Artifact Title: Orochi stops becoming a major character from 3 onward. In 3, the main antagonist takes his form, but is explicitly recognized as a different thing. In 4, the real Orochi appears in two separate battles, but the plot revolves around the newly introduced Greek and Norse pantheons. In fact, for being the title character, the series tends to lock him out from the players until the very end of the game. 2 is the only title where he is a default character. | |

| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_2bdae2ae | comment |
Awesome, but Impractical: Many moves can become this, but the most notable example are, surprisingly Orochi himself. Almost all of his moves are non-elemental, deals small damage, has awkward coverage, and is unsafe in general. The only thing that saves makes him the Purposely Overpowered character that he is intended to be are his C1-1. | |

Massive Multiplayer Crossover | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_2c385759 | comment |
Massive Multiplayer Crossover: Series-wide, between Dynasty Warriors and Samurai Warriors, obviously. Warriors Orochi 3 and its expansions add guest characters from BladeStorm, Warriors: Legend of Troy, Z'ill Oll, Atelier and Ninja Gaiden and Dead or Alive. The most surprising add is probably a guest from the Soul Calibur games. | |

Worf Had the Flu: The reason why the Tokugawa got creamed by Orochi: Tadakatsu was away during the invasion. In the third game, this is the reason that certain characters end up dying in the original timeline, having sustained a grievous wound in a previous battle. Thanks to Kaguya's time powers, the characters can go back and provide some much-needed backup so that the character will survive the events and join the Resistance. | |

Two Guys and a Girl | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_2dff6b95 | comment |
Two Guys and a Girl: In the second game, Taigong Wang, Fu Xi, and Nuwa are the team sent by the Mystic Realm to help the heroes. Although they mostly don't interact with each other (since they are assigned to help different groups of people), you see them team up in Orochi's final stage, where they act like close acquaintances. The third game retcons the Mystic team-up to be Shennong, Fu Xi, and Nuwa. Taigong Wang still has a role, although he is no longer close with the the latter two. This is in fact closer to the original Chinese myths, where the former three are known as the "Three Sovereigns" who created and essentially led humans to civilization, whereas Taigong Wang is a deified historical figure. | |

Theme Music Power-Up | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_2f50c5bf | comment |
Theme Music Power-Up: With both Lu Bu and Tadakatsu Honda in the crossover, naturally they would carry over their theme tunes (The former has a remix specifically for this game). It wouldn't be until Musou Orochi Z, when Orochi himself would finally have his own. Played with in the new DLC for Warriors Orochi 3 "Keiji's Theme" this is where Keiji Maeda wants a theme song for his own. Note that this is the only DLC scenario where you cannot change the BGM (at least in the Japanese edition). In the third game and its expansions, Susano'o, Seimei Abe, Shennong and the guest characters also feature introductions with their themes replacing the stage music. Tamamo and Kyūbi regularly have their themes as BGM in stages they star as boss in. Even the Olympians and Asgardians have their own theme song. | |

Even Evil Has Standards | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_319e4a2f | comment |
Third game's DLC has two scenarios where Dong Zhuo attempts kidnapping ladies of the game for his paradise of beautiful women: First, Dong Zhuo's Ambition where he kidnaps Aya, Kai, Joan of Arc, Cai Wenji, Wang Yuanji, Kaguya and Ayane. And eventually thwarted by a team of Magoichi, Hayabusa and Taigong Wang. Second, Zhong Hui's Pride, which is the same but Dong Zhuo had Zhong Hui to do the dirty job of kidnapping Nuwa, Ina, Da Ji (even if they're allies or sorts), Wang Yuanji (again), Diaochan, Zhurong and Gracia (the last two escaped), until Zhong Hui has had enough and storms off, driving off would-be rescuers, Dong Zhuo, as well as the ones Zhurong and Gracia called for help (Meng Huo, Mitsuhide, Motochika). There's also another scenario where you play as Dong Zhuo's forces fighting the resistance forces... and showing that you've captured Sun Shangxiang, Zhenji and Ina to immobilize Sun Jian, Cao Pi and Tadakatsu. Just be careful of Hanz� and Zhou Tai trying to rescue them. | |

Out of Focus | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_32da91b8 | comment |
Out of Focus: In the third game, if you go a while without using character, you can listen to them talk about how they're bored or angry at being kept from the battlefield. The game tries to remedy this by suggesting a recommended team for each stage, which is usually the characters most plot relevant to the stage; however, you can choose to ignore this recommendation and field whoever you wish. This happens in the fourth game due to having 170 characters in total which means that not all of the characters are going to have focus in the main plot. Only around 20-30 characters, including the new ones, have involvement in the main storyline while the rest are either used as backup for bonding and have more screentime in the side missions. | |

Wolverine Publicity: Same as with their source games, Zhao Yun and Yukimura Sanada are in front and center of the covers of the later games. Especially egregious in 3 where the main protagonists are Ma Chao, Sima Zhao, and Hanbei Takenaka, yet none of those three are on the cover at all. Another example is the first game that had Lu Bu and Tadakatsu Honda on the cover. The duo never really fight in the story and you have to fight one of them in Free Mode with the other to get a special cutscene. | |

La Résistance | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_34dd5f3 | comment |
La Résistance: Gets formed eventually in the first game. However, Nobunaga Oda is the one who jump-started it. Also the center point of the third game's story. Almost every battle marks the player's forces as "Resistance Army". In the fourth game, the resistance wasn't formed yet due to the characters being randomized and grouped into four factions. It's only at the end of the second chapter where Nobunaga and the Mystics join forces with the rebel forces under Yukimura and Perseus after Nuwa informs them of their past relationship from the previous games and the Greek gods' intention. | |

The Fellowship Has Ended | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_35850a4f | comment |
The Fellowship Has Ended: In the vanilla third game's true ending, Orochi X's demise causes the world to collapse so the mystics send the human characters back to their time periods with the memories of their teamwork erased. Ultimate's ending is also the same but the world remains intact after Kyubi is sealed back into the mirror. The fourth game's ending shows that the world is also collapsing due to Odin and Orochi X's deaths and Yggdrasil's destruction. Zeus gets the eight bracelets back from the heroes having fulfilled their mission and thanks them for their alliance before he sends them and the rest of the humans back to their time periods with their memories of adventures together erased. | |

Lethal Joke Character: Gracia. Her attack power and range are both horrible in the second game, below decent at best, and her cavalry skill is easily shut down due to the absence of the no-dismount-when-hit horse. Then you discover that single technique and proceed to kill the enemy commander from full health in under a second. Oh ho, even Orochi's trembling at the sight of her. You'll loathe having to fight against Himiko. You'll be massacring entire armies and shiver in fear at that little girl when she activates her Musou attack and wrecks your crap. | |

Boring, but Practical | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_39b8d3d6 | comment |
Boring, but Practical: In gauntlet mode, equipping every weapon with slay and wind elements can be a must at later stages. At first it's not so bad, and good stats will let you take out enemies even in high miasma, however in later stages enemies can become so tough even a character with a 999 attack stat will only deal Scratch Damage to high miasma enemies. Wind and slay get around that, although there are rare enemy types that can half the power of the elements, by dealing % damage or instant death. This is downright overkill in story mode, even at chaos difficulty, but in Gauntlet mode, it's necessary once you get further in. | |

Secret Test of Character | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_3f7a958b | comment |
Secret Test of Character: This is another common thing in the fourth game: Nobunaga battles the rebel forces under Perseus and Liu Bei but he's doing this under the orders of Nuwa just to see if they are ready to fight against the Olympians. Once this is achieved, they can now rebuild the coalition. This is Zeus' true goal all along; he just wants to check if humanity is strong enough to defeat Odin. He is also testing his children because he wants them to loosen up a bit and see mortals in a different way. | |

Bittersweet Ending | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_40cc0c7e | comment |
Bittersweet Ending: The 'true' ending of the third game which also counts as Victory-Guided Amnesia for the humans involved. The second ending of Ultimate somewhat mitigates this. The heroes are still returned without their memories, but whereas in the original the dimensional world is also destroyed, it remains intact here, hinting at a sequel to come (and indeed, it eventually does). The fourth game's ending is similar to the third game's true ending where the humans go back to their time periods with their memories erased again while the dimensional world collapses again due to the destruction of Yggdrasil. However, the mystics hint that they may meet again someday and Zeus, who have learned his lesson, believes that their adventures would be remembered in the next generations. | |

Golden Ending | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_47e4f5f5 | comment |
This is how Warriors Orochi 3 is set up. Instead of having stories for different "sides," all player-controlled characters are on one side, and your mission is to travel backwards to earlier events and collect as many warriors as you can before the big Hydra showdown. Every single battle you complete will give you at minimum one new warrior, possible three or five! To get the Golden Ending you need to get everyone you possibly can. This trope is also one of the reasons Warriors Orochi 3 is so fun to play; Gotta Catch 'Em All is an inherently addicting trope. | |

Always Chaotic Evil | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_4832a3bb | comment |
Always Chaotic Evil: Played With. When given the opportunity, the demon army are perfectly capable of living in peace alongside human beings, after initial mutual rejection. But, this seems highly inconsistent. It's brought up multiple times throughout the story, namely with Yuan Shao trying to form an army with demons to coexist with humans. This ends up backfiring on him, since the demons in question were playing on his naivete. However Yoshimoto Imagawa successfully builds a nation where demons and humans are united in their love of kemari, and Dodomeki and Gyūki willingly joining you after the story does hint that they can live together. Seimei Abe states that such a coexistence is completely impossible and in his world, nobody would think of that as a good idea. The characters present seem to agree. In Ultimate, Zhurong and Ginchiyo Tachibana further condone Yuan Shao's actions to ally himself with the demons, eventually making him travel back in time and set right what he did wrong, stabbing Hammerjaw in the back before he gets the chance to do so first. Also at the beginning of the story of Ultimate, when Da Ji betrays the heroes, Dodomeki and Gyūki join her immediately. | |

Did We Just Have Tea with Cthulhu?: A major part of Bonds in the third game, where you can invite anyone to a pleasant banquet (from the Tea House, no less!), even if the other party is the Omnicidal Maniac responsible for creating the world the characters currently reside in or his dragon. Amusingly enough, you can do this on a more literal level by inviting them to a "Tea Party", which is the initial way to rise affinity in the game. | |

According to the timeline, Warriors Orochi 4 actually follows up the events of Warriors Orochi 3: Ultimate except that the Chinese and Japanese characters are sent back to their worlds with the memories from Orochi's world erased just like the vanilla True ending in contrast to Ultimate's ending where they still do remember it vaguely. However, the mystic characters who debuted from WO3: Ultimate still do appear in the official roster except that Tamamo and Kyubi are tagged to be unlocked in the Deluxe Edition of the game and as camp bonus which means that they do not have a huge role in WO4 despite that their storyline is canonized. It would also be hard for her to have a role in 4's story' As she became a Sealed Evil in a Can at the end of Ultimate. | |

Happy Ending Override | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_53c5f30e | comment |
Happy Ending Override: The second game ends with the defeat of Orochi and the Chinese and Japanese characters living happily together in their new world. Then the Hydra shows up at the beginning of the third game, killing the majority of the characters while the rest are either brainwashed or missing which leaves Hanbei, Ma Chao and Sima Zhao as the only ones left to fight against the Hydra. The Ultimate version of the third game ends with the Chinese and Japanese human characters returning to their time periods with their memories of the WO universe intact. But that's not the case in the fourth game because those memories are actually wiped out just like in the vanilla ending. Then, there's this Greek god who thinks that it would be more fun if he merges both worlds again, forcing the human characters to fight their former allies again. Speaking of the fourth game, the new story scenario of its Ultimate version retroactively sours the original ending by establishing that Odin's soul is being held separate from his body, so destroying him as the heroes did there would just lead to him eventually returning to life. | |

Scratch Damage | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_5405b144 | comment |
In the first stage of the third game, we are thrown into a battle where it's just Ma Chao, Sima Zhao and Hanbei Takenaka (and some generics) against the Hydra. None of the siege weapons do more than Scratch Damage against it (and it just regenerates said scratch damage), and the weapons are destroyed in just a few hits, with each destroyed weapon drastically lowering your allies' morale. On top of that, they're all being pursued by the massive Demon Army under Kiyomori; you will lose your generic allies no matter what you do (generic allies who happen to have really depressing death quotes specifically for this stage only) and your only escape route is promptly sealed off by Da Ji. It takes a practically-literal Deus ex Machina to bail the characters out of this situation, lest Warriors Orochi 3 become the shortest, most depressing full-priced game ever. | |

Badass Family | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_55a37945 | comment |
Badass Family: While true for most families in game, the Sun family gets a special mention. Three of the four endings have Orochi defeated by the team work of multiple Samurai Warriors and Dynasty Warriors faction members, while the Wu ending is notable for having Sun Jian, Sun Ce, Sun Shang Xiang and Sun Quan defeating Orochi as a family without any other assistance. | |

Bragging Rights Reward | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_55e5b37c | comment |
Bragging Rights Reward: If you do absolutely everything in WO2, you can unlock Orochi X, the One-Winged Angel version of the original. However, by the time this is done, it's time to put down the game... In the first game, the fourth weapons are this. They and the fusion weapon system are essentially meaningless when most of the game is getting off your attacks before you get hit, and in the Chaos difficulty, a regular Mook can kill even a Level 99 character in 5-6 hits. Also in the first game, getting all your abilities maxed out is this. By the time you have achieved this, you've already unlocked all of the characters, and by that time, these maxed out abilities are unnecessary when they could have helped in trying to advance through the game earlier. And personal items of all the characters, which involve Guide Dang It! in most of the cases anyway. | |

Grapple Move: Characters from Samurai Warriors (starting from with SW2) and Dynasty Warriors retain whatever grab move they had in their respective game, like Lu Bu's choke slam move from 5 and Wang Yi's ground "aerial slash" musou and aerial "ground pin" from 7. Of course, like in SW 2, this was a improved mechanic from DW 4's more buggy grab attacks. | |

Fragile Speedster | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_5979acea | comment |
Fragile Speedster: Speed-type characters. They can air dash and jump cancel their charge attacks, but their main Type Action mechanics differ from game to game. In 1, 2 and Z, they had two Type Action Specials, a Combination Art 1 (Neutral R1) and Combination Art 2 (Direction + R1) are made available to them, which may or may not cost Musou depending on the Speed-type character and/or the Type Action in question. However, in 3, they now all only have one Type Action given to them that will always cost Musou (which costs the least compared to other types). They also sadly, tend to lack in durability. | |

| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_5abc8612 | comment |
Unholy Matrimony: WO3 has Da Ji and Achilles with serious affections for one another, mostly a case of In Love with Your Carnage. One camp conversation has Achilles sweet-talking Da Ji by saying that a cruel and beautiful woman like her needs to be surrounded by the screams of combat. Hundun also shows genuine interests towards Kyūbi out of similar motives. | |

Save Scumming | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_5cfeb43f | comment |
In 3, if you enter The Slaying Of The Hydra before Chapter 2 is cleared, you get a borderline impossible version of the stage, with no Yashi’ori and only ballistae to fight the Hydra, like in the prologue version. Unlike said prologue version, this one is actually beatable, though you would need a ton of Save Scumming and near perfect performance to have any chance of killing all Hydra heads in the time limit. Should you actually succeed though, there is unique dialogue to accommodate the fact that the Resistance don’t know about the Hydra spawning Orochi clones upon it’s death at this point. | |

The Computer Is a Cheating Bastard | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_6041e4f4 | comment |
The Computer Is a Cheating Bastard: Another Warriors game to have this trope. While the main games display this from time to time, Ultimate's Gauntlet Mode can sometimes take the cake on higher difficulty stages. In Gauntlet Mode there are unique "formation skills" that can take many forms, from elemental attacks to random buffs, that the player can use. Specific officers can also use a specific one as an enemy, such as Xu Zhu always having the skill that causes Collision Damage when activated. That part is fair. The unfair part is they can spam both formation skills and musou in ways the player cannot. Gantlet mode uses a modified version of the team-up bar from 3's story mode to power the formation skills, however the enemy, if it's feeling cruel, can spam up to 4 uses of a skill that costs 2/3s of the bar to use for the player. They can also chain musou attacks together, an action that is impossible for the player to do without abusing the game due to the fact that no character can pull off a musou attack without a full musou bar, otherwise the character will charge up when you try. note It is possible to replicate this for burst style musou attacks by having triple thrift and The focus belt, as the focus belt will recover the single point of musou that get's used up due to triple thrift, but what you can't replicate the sustain style musou that computers do, once you enter, it has to run out before you can go again, and it's impossible to recover your musou before you've even had a chance to attack. | |

Heel–Face Turn | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_617f0563 | comment |
Heel–Face Turn: Lu Bu, of all people, changes sides in Wu's scenario during the second game, though it's presented less as a heroic thing and more of Lu Bu's Chronic Backstabbing Disorder flaring up again. The Dragon, Kiyomori, lampshades this. When a random henchman tells him that Lu Bu has betrayed them, Kiyomori replies, "Betrayal? No, that man... is being true to himself." In the third game however, if Diaochan comes to his side during one of Lu Bu's fights with Nezha, he'll automatically defect to the Resistance at her urging. Considering that Shuten D�ji is the conscience of Orochi, which essentially means that he is Orochi, one might argue that Orochi himself makes a face turn after joining the Resistance against the Hydra, which is Orochi's raw power without his mind. Also in the third game, Keiji and Masamune, after two titles being unrepentant servants of Orochi, eventually defect for good after one Hydra head is down and they realize that this is not the Orochi they used to trust. This is before the reveal about Shuten D�ji (See above). Subverted with Dong Zhuo, though. He did join the Resistance, but that's because Zhuge Liang forces him to so he doesn't bother the resistance with his petty ambitions and dreams. Once the Normal Ending is unlocked in the third game, you'll find Gyūki and Dodomeki in the camp, stating that they were press-ganged by the Resistance to atone for their crimes. They're actually OK with this and even get a DLC mission about proving themselves. In 4, other than Odin, all of the Greek and Norse gods eventually become pals with the humans. Ares even goes so far as to call Zeus out for toying with humans, even though he started out as a very vicious humanity-hater. | |

I Have Your Wife: This is commonly deployed by the antagonists in order to force the humans to follow their orders: In the first game, Da Ji holds Liu Bei and Sun Jian captive which forces Zhuge Liang, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and the Sun siblings to fight for Orochi. In the third game, the Demon forces coerce Liu Shan, Nagamasa and Kiyomasa to work for them by holding Xingcai, Oichi and Nene hostage. In the fourth game, Athena kidnaps Liu Shan to force Zhao Yun and the younger Shu officers (except Guan Ping and Yinping) to fight for her. | |

Nintendo Hard | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_62259825 | comment |
Nintendo Hard: You can expect the games to be very challenging. To be more specific, the last two stages of the first game are hell to clear because even though the mooks can be taken out easily, the officers' stats are insanely higher than the mooks, being able to take the player out with only a few hits, even if you're playing on normal mode with high level officers. Missions where you have to chase an enemy down or protect someone from dying are especially challenging as well. As an example from the first game when you have to stop Sun Ce in Wei's story mode. When you actually reach him, his stats will be far higher than yours, even if you're playing with high level officers, he will kick your ass unless you use a power character as they have higher defense than speed and technique. And if you don't kill him soon enough, Zhou You will appear with two sub officers and while you don't have to kill them, they'll cause you a great deal of trouble trying to kill Sun Ce. | |

| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_63b12059 | comment |
Villainous Friendship: While in the first two games it was left up in the air the third makes it pretty clear that Keiji, Masamune, Da Ji, and most of the demons truly respected Orochi. Even long after his death they still hope for his return. When they realize what the Hydra truly is their disappointment at it's mindless, hollow state is so great most of them pull heel-face turns to help destroy it just because they view it as an affront to the man they used to serve. | |

Dynamic Difficulty | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_63c6c615 | comment |
In 3 Ultimate, Gauntlet Mode automatically saves if you win or lose a level. In the Story or Free Mode, you will automatically lose all progress you made since the last battle if you don't manually save and you lose the battle, while in Gauntlet Mode losing doesn't impose the same penalty. This may seem a bit odd, but considering that Gauntlet Mode uses Dynamic Difficulty to make everything Nintendo Hard, and add in that winning means finding the one area out of multiple on a stage that could randomly be the exit, this makes the penalty for losing less frustrating as, while you still lose almost all loot from the level, you don't lose anything else. | |

Improbable Weapon User: Taigong Wang uses a fishing for a weapon, while Sanzang uses her detached sleeves. There's also Da Ji and Himiko with their mystic balls of death. WO3 adds a tree branch & floating mirrors and a drinking gourd. Of course, you kinda of have to mention the characters from the two base games. Easy ones to point out are a flute, an ass kicking flute, feather fans surprisingly good at smacking people, and then you have a spear that houses a massive laser canon in its slightly engorged head. You can also add the bench, the steel boat and the giant mushroom. The third game gives nearly everyone the option to do this by introducing Big Star weapons with very silly skins. Guo Huai, for one, has his Chain-Gun takes the appearance of a giant syringe. (and it's named "Night Nurse", no less!) They will however, as noted below, become Infinity Plus One Swords after you spend the time to max out their Proficiency. | |

Knight of Cerebus: The Hydra is suitably The Dreaded of 3 because of this simple reason: it manages to kill off established characters of DW and SW, something that none of the villains from the previous games were able to do. Much of the plot of 3 revolves around time travel because let's face it, you can't bring someone back from the dead, at least without resorting to nefarious powers. Whenever the Norse gods are brought up in 4, things get dark real quick. | |

| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_6aa64734 | comment |
The Power of Family: In the first game regardless of how they're forced to fight each other by Da Ji, the Sun family always sticks together as evident in the Wu storyline ending where they all deliver their final blows against Orochi. In the fourth game, this happens to the Guan family as well thanks to Guan Yinping, who possessed the Ouroboros bracelet containing the power of Freya, the Norse goddess of love. Because of this, Guan Yinping's love of her family cause her brothers, Guan Suo and Xing, to defect to the coalition where their father and older brother are. | |

Only the Chosen May Wield | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_6aada778 | comment |
Only the Chosen May Wield: This is in-universe explanation on how the bracelets choose their owners, giving them their Deification forms. According to Perseus, it only activates when the wearer has intense emotion or resolve. In Naotora's case, she finds the bracelet by chance. For Yukimura and Guan Yinping, the bracelets go to them while Athena and Ares provide the bracelets to Zhao Yun, Cao Pi and Mitsunari as an exchange for their services. As for Nobunaga, the mystics are the first to find his bracelet and by coincidence, it went to him which is why his Deification form is a Japanese one. For Lu Bu's case, it's hinted that Loki may be responsible for giving the bracelet to him at the beginning which also explains his Deification form being based from a Norse god. | |

Secret Character | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_6bff99d4 | comment |
Fu Xi and Nuwa were originally secret characters in Dynasty Warriors 3, where they had very basic designs and dialogue. Here: they are Physical Gods with large plot reverence. | |

GottaCatchEmAll | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_6e9e1e32 | comment |
Gotta Catch 'Em All: This is how Warriors Orochi 3 is set up. Instead of having stories for different "sides," all player-controlled characters are on one side, and your mission is to travel backwards to earlier events and collect as many warriors as you can before the big Hydra showdown. Every single battle you complete will give you at minimum one new warrior, possible three or five! To get the Golden Ending you need to get everyone you possibly can. This trope is also one of the reasons Warriors Orochi 3 is so fun to play; Gotta Catch 'Em All is an inherently addicting trope. Gauntlet/Unlimited Mode takes this further by having the famous officers you defeat automatically join you if you complete a set of stages. You also only start the mode with 5 characters and you can only unlock characters in the mode even if you haven't unlocked them in the main story. The same thing happens again in Warriors Orochi 4, which despite having a perfectly serviceable team system in-story still opts to use a linear story mode. At the start of the game, you only have Naomasa, Naotora, and Tadakatsu, out of 170 characters. Their goal is to gather as many allies as they can for the fight against the villain. | |

Culture Clash: Ancient Chinese warriors and Warring States Era Japanese daimy� fighting together or against one another. Then there's the use of firearms, courtesy of the Samurai Warriors cast, and there's the Frenchwoman and the Greek warrior. Also, of course, the modern day ninja...

Excuse Plot: So. We have a powerful demon who wants to fight the best that East Asia has to offer right. So what does he do? Take Three Kingdoms Era China and Warring States Era Japan, then ram them together. Eventually Subverted in Warriors Orochi 3, which gives a somewhat more fleshed-out plot with emphasis on the relationships of the characters. | |

The Strategist | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_73641290 | comment |
The Strategist: From the second game onwards Taigong Wang takes it upon himself to plan most of the battle against Orochi. Hanbei takes this role in the third game. Da Ji acts as one for Orochi's forces throughout the first two games and to a minor extent in the third game. All of the strategists have their fair share of the pie in the fourth game as they each give their contribution in the fight. | |

Jerkass Gods | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_73f7975f | comment |
Jerkass Gods: The Mystics towards humans, though it is not too hard to see why. Nezha is the worst about this (despite being half-human), with Susanoo as a close second. Nuwa and Taigong Wang are more subtle, but still not much better. Even Fu Xi and Kaguya can sometimes become overly patronizing, although the two do feel sorry for it and attempt to get better (and in Kaguya's case, you can attribute it more to her naivety). The only one who completely averts this is Shennong. For the Olympians and Asgardians, Ares never trusts half-humans and sees humans as tools while Athena is subtle on her attitude towards humans. Zeus has a huge interest on humanity but doesn't realize his manipulations affected them. Odin isn't better as he's interested in total annihilation. Perseus is the only one who lacks any malice towards them as he is half-human except that as Loki, he sees them as pawns and doesn't understand the goodness in them. However, his time with the humans as Perseus seems to influence his opinion on them and ends up helping them to defeat Odin. | |

The Woobie | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_743d2893 | comment |
Orochi, even before you find out about his backstory in 3 Ultimate (which turns him into a massive Woobie). Yinglong was essentially cursed to become what he is because of his strong sense of justice, and for that, he will never be redeemed. While the Heavenly Emperor takes pity on him, he all but states that Yinglong's curse can't be removed, because the demons corrupted his soul. | |

No One Gets Left Behind: Also see Earn Your Happy Ending above. The requirement for the True ending of 3 is obviously designed so you already have recruited all DW and SW characters, since the ending shows the dimensional world being destroyed and the mystics sending everyone present back to their original time while wiping their memories of the dimensional world clean, thus making their exploits in the original series possible without leaving any kind of Series Continuity Error. | |

Chronic Backstabbing Disorder | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_7c862b8a | comment |
Lu Bu, of all people, changes sides in Wu's scenario during the second game, though it's presented less as a heroic thing and more of Lu Bu's Chronic Backstabbing Disorder flaring up again. The Dragon, Kiyomori, lampshades this. When a random henchman tells him that Lu Bu has betrayed them, Kiyomori replies, "Betrayal? No, that man... is being true to himself." | |

Super Mode | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_844b6779 | comment |
Super Mode: Warriors Orochi 4 introduces the "deification form" which is based from several Greek and Norse gods whose attributes and skills reflect on the characters chosen; though in Nobunaga's case, his form is based from a Japanese god. However, only eight characters (Zhao Yun, Yukimura, Cao Pi, Mitsunari, Guan Yinping, Nobunaga, Naotora and Lu Bu) who are important to the story can only have them. Characters in their deification form can do more damage than their normal form. They can only be activated once you have the Rage Musou which you can only get from a gold drop that only appears once you have 300 hits. Aside from that other characters still have Musou Rage and Awakenings that work much like their home series. | |

Wistful Amnesia: In the fourth game, the Chinese and Japanese characters lost their memories of their adventures together in the three previous games. As the game progresses, they slowly remember their old partnership and the past (e.g.: Sun Jian seems to remember his friendship of Ujiyasu while Xingcai recalls fighting against Orochi X). It's only when the original Orochi returns that they finally remember. | |

Badass Boast There are several quotes that are quite notable. In one dream stage, Shibata Katsuie calls out to the Orochi forces with "Pathetic gutter trash. You couldn't outfight my corpse!" The final battle in the Shu story of 2 has one from Sima Yi when you finally get to him. If you get to him as Zhuge Liang, though... Lu Bu, true to form, says at least one in almost every stage in which he makes an appearance. | |

Near the end of Chapter 3 we have the reveal that Da Ji had been hiding the body of Orochi X, which turns into the Hydra, which is revealed to be a manifestation of Orochi's raw power. Oh, and Shuten D�ji is revealed to be a manifestation of Orochi's conciousness. Ultimate further reveals that everything that had happened up until then - including events in the mystical characters' past - was a result of Tamamo's machinations. Even Orochi himself was a victim! The middle of Chapter 4 in Warriors Orochi 4 reveals that Perseus is actually Loki, the God of Mischief and he is on Odin's side all along, manipulating the likes of Naotora, Yukimura and Guan Yinping and everybody else including the Olympians. | |

Numerical Hard: Although enemies already do receive substantial stat boost at the maximum difficulty in the two base games, this crossover turns things up several notches by increasing the stat boost to the degree that even a maxed-out character will die from a dozen blows from the lowest mook. Granted, the player can boost up their damage as well with the tons of weapon attributes they can imbue in this game. | |

Absurdly High Level Cap | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_91526ff7 | comment |
Absurdly High Level Cap: Of a sorts: In 3 Ultimate after raising a character to the level cap of 100, you can "reincarnate" them, which drops them to level one but gives them the ability to get Upgrade Stones upon leveling up which permanently increase a stat of your choice. You can also do this up to nine times, which means it's entirely possible to max out all stats to at 999 if done properly (i.e. ideally, before doing another promotion). This gets reintroduced in 4 Ultimate. | |

Mighty Glacier | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_933576c8 | comment |
Mighty Glacier: Power-type characters. While they are tanky with very powerful and-or-offensive Type Actions, they don't have any special cancel mechanics and they may take too much unneeded damage, despite having Hyper Armor (only charge attacks, Type Actions and Musou Attacks can make them flinch until you have enough attack power). | |

Set Right What Once Went Wrong | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_93ed8515 | comment |
Set Right What Once Went Wrong: The entire storyline of the third game. Also, most stages may involve a character dying outside of your control, after which a few characters will try to help them out in a stage that will result in a Redux version of the previous stage where the character can end up surviving and join the Resistance. | |

Can't Catch Up | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_94d2506d | comment |
Rather than being forced to level grind each character individually, you can level up characters automatically from a menu using experience collected from battle. This lets you avoid characters from being left in the gutter completely. | |

Nezha himself gets this from the player. Even after you've beaten him a couple of times he'll still talk about how "impossible" it is for a human to beat him. In Ultimate, the player travels back in time to see the then-human Nezha charging straight at the newly born Orochi, who then proceeds to wipe the floor with him. The subsequent result is Nezha getting himself vaporised and had to be revived as a cyborg. Guess he never learned... | |

Big Bad | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_970c790a | comment |
As of 3 Ultimate, we have Tamamo, who is responsible for a lot of stuff it borders on hilarious. She is the true mastermind of all events in the series by falsely leading Yinglong to attack the Heavenly Emperor and stole the Divine Mirror, which transformed him into Orochi. It's also heavily implied that the Demon Army is rightfully hers, considering that they have existed long before Orochi ever came to be. This is without counting the stuff she does as the Big Bad of 3 Ultimate, which is an entirely different can of worms. | |

Continuity Reboot: Warriors Orochi 4 takes this route. The mystics remembered the adventures of the past but thanks to their last actions to wipe out the Chinese and Japanese characters' memories and when Zeus remade the Orochi world, everyone else has to start from scratch where new relationships will be formed, restarting the adventure with a fresh slate. | |

Revenge Before Reason: Wang Yi appears to be controlled by Orochi, but when she broke free of it, she's still vengeful on Ma Chao and attempts to kill him until N� and Oichi stop her. She does this again in the fourth game except it's Nuwa and Nene who tries to reason with her. | |

All-Loving Hero | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_99e14f05 | comment |
Even Tamamo receives a degree of sympathy from a few characters like Shennong (although the fact that the guy always tries to see the best of anyone helps), despite the horrible things she committed. She originally didn't want to do what she did, but if she did not, she would cease to exist. Other people's anger and sorrow are the only things that keep her alive. You cannot blame her to become mad and jump off the slippery slope. In a way, her ultimate fate is probably the best thing that could happen to both parties. On one hand, the heroes would no longer be manipulated by her. On the other hand, Tamamo continues to exist and can create her own "perfect world" in the Mirror Realm. | |

Greater-Scope Villain | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_9b06e314 | comment |
Greater-Scope Villain: Orochi himself is relegated to this in the second game onward. In 2, he is dead so obviously he can't actively act, but Da Ji's attempt to resurrect him is what drives the plot. In the third, his will created Hydra and everyone in the dimensional world feels his presence in one way or another. However, throughout the story, he is dead and remains dead. Tamamo, especially in the first and second games. She was the person responsible for the birth of Orochi. Hundun is a low-key example. As the personification of chaos, he facilitated the collision of the worlds of Dynasty Warriors and Samurai Warriors and the creation of a whole new dimension, although he personally has nothing to do with the plot itself. In the fourth game, it turns out that Loki is responsible for manipulating the characters since the beginning and tricks the likes of Naotora, Yukimura, Guan Yinping and everyone in their faction under the disguise of Perseus. All of this was to ensure that celestial conflict among the humans and the mystics would open a path for Odin to enter their world. When Yukimura and Yinping learn the horrible truth, they're very distraught that they had been fooled and used by the God of Mischief himself. However, he has a last-minute change of heart, thanks to Yukimura's influence. | |

Took a Level in Badass | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_9bcd82c0 | comment |
Took a Level in Badass: For the first time ever, Xiahou Yuan is both competent and has a few significant story moments in the second game. Dong Zhuo has arguably also received this treatment, becoming an actually competent (albeit still whiny and pampered at times) villain who is also a vital figure in Orochi's army. Arguably Nuwa and Fu Xi from their first appearance in Dynasty Warriors 3, where they were secret characters without background or story, when they are now deities from the mystic realm. Back in Bladestorm, Jeanne was a mere Hero Unit in a game about commanding troops. Now, she picks up a spear and has her chance to rack up multitudes of KOs all by herself. | |

A Day in the Limelight | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_9c8701b5 | comment |
A Day in the Limelight: Most of the big names from Dynasty Warriors and Samurai Warriors are dead, brainwashed or unavailable for the early parts of Warriors Orochi 3, so the game gets to focus much more on the lesser-known guys first. The final story mission even brings back your initial three guys —Sima Zhao, Hanbei and Ma Chao— and places them in charge of the army, even including their supposed betters like Liu Bei, Sima Yi or Oda Nobunaga. Similarly, the new scenarios of 3 Ultimate mostly involve lesser-known guys who are given temporary spotlight (possibly so they don't get left in the waiting stage). As usual, you can pick anyone as your team, but only said guys will be shown in the cutscenes. The Dream States in 2 and most of the bonus stages in 3 and 4 focuses on a trio of characters, whose adventure can range from semi-serious to really wacky. The team can be anyone and everyone, which could produce quite a few surprising interactions. | |

Interface Spoiler: In 4’s Showdown with Zeus stage, the opening cutscene has Zhao Yun, Yukimura, Mitsunari, and Naotora emphasise that they need to be kept safe in order to break the barriers. The stage’s conditions do state that the defeat of Zhao Yun, Mitsunari, or Naotora will be a loss for the player, but Yukimura is not considered vital, making it pretty clear that his bracelet is not one of the ones needed to break a barrier. | |

Foreshadowing: When Yukimura receives his Deification form in 4, Perseus notes that his bracelet contains the power of Tyr, who is a Norse god and not the only one in the game. In 4, Taigong Wang and Kaguya are shocked that Orochi X returned. This causes the former to wonder what is the purpose of bringing him back unless the person who resurrected him desires total destruction. Turns out that is what Odin really intended. | |

Can't Argue with Elves | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_9d29321a | comment |
The Mystics towards humans, though it is not too hard to see why. Nezha is the worst about this (despite being half-human), with Susanoo as a close second. Nuwa and Taigong Wang are more subtle, but still not much better. Even Fu Xi and Kaguya can sometimes become overly patronizing, although the two do feel sorry for it and attempt to get better (and in Kaguya's case, you can attribute it more to her naivety). The only one who completely averts this is Shennong. | |

In the novel, Pang Tong was one of the Shu officers responsible for his defeat at Chi Bi. | |

DistressedDamsel | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_9f5e99a7 | comment |
Distressed Damsel: A lot and occasionally overlaps Badass in Distress: First game: In Wu's last stage, Sun Shangxiang can grab a Distress Ball and charge in to Dong Zhuo's base, resulting her getting kidnapped and tied up until you beat him. Second game: That Dream Mode which involves several girls saving other girls (and Cao Pi) from Dong Zhuo. Third game: Dong Zhuo once again kidnaps girls, this time Oichi, Nene and Xingcai, forcing Nagamasa, Kiyomasa and Liu Shan into the Demon Army (and Zhang He is kidnapped too. Ina is also kidnapped by the Demon Army in the middle of her training when you try to unlock her. Third game's DLC has two scenarios where Dong Zhuo attempts kidnapping ladies of the game for his paradise of beautiful women: First, Dong Zhuo's Ambition where he kidnaps Aya, Kai, Joan of Arc, Cai Wenji, Wang Yuanji, Kaguya and Ayane. And eventually thwarted by a team of Magoichi, Hayabusa and Taigong Wang. Second, Zhong Hui's Pride, which is the same but Dong Zhuo had Zhong Hui to do the dirty job of kidnapping Nuwa, Ina, Da Ji (even if they're allies or sorts), Wang Yuanji (again), Diaochan, Zhurong and Gracia (the last two escaped), until Zhong Hui has had enough and storms off, driving off would-be rescuers, Dong Zhuo, as well as the ones Zhurong and Gracia called for help (Meng Huo, Mitsuhide, Motochika). There's also another scenario where you play as Dong Zhuo's forces fighting the resistance forces... and showing that you've captured Sun Shangxiang, Zhenji and Ina to immobilize Sun Jian, Cao Pi and Tadakatsu. Just be careful of Hanz� and Zhou Tai trying to rescue them. | |

Leitmotif | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_9f6fb586 | comment |
Leitmotif: Several characters have their own theme which plays whenever you are near them or in their stages. The titular Orochi has his own theme along with his resurrection, Orochi X; and his past self, Yinglong. Susano'o, Tamamo, Hundun and pretty much any new original character except Nezha has their own theme. Lu Bu has a version of his theme specifically for this series. Tadakatsu typically reuses the current version of his theme (except 4, which uses the version from Samurai Warriors 3). All of the guest characters from 3 have an arrangement of their theme or of an iconic song from their series. The Deified characters in 4 all have personal themes: Lu Bu has yet anonther arrangement of his own theme. Nobunaga has Destiny (the Honnoji theme from SW4) Yukimura has Twin Cherry Blossoms (the Sanada clan theme from SW4) Zhao Yun has Crush'em all (the main theme from DW7) Guan Yinping has Solo (the Fan Castle theme from DW8) Cao Pi has Tales of Wei (Wei's theme from DW7 and 8) Mitsunari has the eponymous theme for Sekigahara from SW2 Naotora has War Chronicles (a massive extension of the opening from SW:Chronicles?) Finally, while the god factions have their own collective themes, Perseus (Loki in disguise) has his own theme. | |

Late Character Syndrome | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_9f7b20af | comment |
Late Character Syndrome: All the time. Unlocking characters in the series is akin to a stage progression; you won't finish it until near the end of the game (and in a few cases, exactly at the end of the game). And those characters will start at Lv. 1 and with the most basic weapon available upon unlocking as usual, so if your favorite character is unlocked only at the end of a scenario, prepare to be disappointed. Thankfully, the game mitigates this somewhat by giving you the option to spend unused EXP points to level up the character before each battle. | |

It's Personal: When you first encounter Lu Bu in 3, he is singularly obsessed with killing Nezha. The reason for this? Not because Nezha beat him, though he did, but because he then proceeded to casually kill Diaochan in front of Lu Bu. Lu Bu has been out for his blood since before the Hydra even appeared. | |

More Deadly Than the Male: Twofold. First, there is Da Ji. Yes, Orochi engineers most of the destruction befalling upon the humans, but bear in mind that it was Da Ji who freed him in the first place. And in the second game, it was her idea again to bring him back. As of 3 Ultimate, we have Tamamo, who is responsible for a lot of stuff it borders on hilarious. She is the true mastermind of all events in the series by falsely leading Yinglong to attack the Heavenly Emperor and stole the Divine Mirror, which transformed him into Orochi.

Ascended Extra | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_a65288e2 | comment |
Ascended Extra: Hundun is basically the Chinese name of Hammerjaw, a Dodomeki-like Orochi general who aligned himself with Yuan Shao. In Ultimate's Gauntlet Mode, however, he becomes a terrifying demon possibly being a Greater-Scope Villain than Orochi. Arguably Ma Chao and Hanbei Takenaka in the third game, where they and Sima Zhao are the starting protagonists. Sima Zhao is kind of exempt from this for being a leader figure and the main character of the Jin story in Dynasty Warriors 7, but the former two were just a general and strategist in their games. Fu Xi and Nuwa were originally secret characters in Dynasty Warriors 3, where they had very basic designs and dialogue. Here: they are Physical Gods with large plot reverence. In the fourth game, Naotora Ii and Guan Yinping join in the characters (Zhao Yun, Yukimura, Cao Pi, Mitsunari and Nobunaga), who were previously leaders of their factions fighting against Orochi in the first game, as the main protagonists who have Deification forms. It should be noted that Naotora is a retainer of the Imagawa and Tokugawa clans and one of few female daimyo in the Sengoku Period while Guan Yinping is known as the daughter of Guan Yu which is ironic that she gets a Deification form over her father who is deified in Real Life. | |

It should be noted that Naotora is a retainer of the Imagawa and Tokugawa clans and one of few female daimyo in the Sengoku Period while Guan Yinping is known as the daughter of Guan Yu which is ironic that she gets a Deification form over her father who is deified in Real Life. | |

Humanity Is Infectious | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_aa88f109 | comment |
Humanity Is Infectious: How majority of the mystics and gods feel when they are with the humans for a long time. Some of the mystics become fast friends with the humans characters. Even some of the demons such as Da Ji, Gyuki and Dodomeki slowly feel this way when they side with the humans. But for Da Ji's case, it was only temporary and she rather enjoys messing with the humans than be friends with them. | |

Fire, Ice, Lightning: Fu Xi, Nuwa, and Taigong Wang represent these three elements. Also, the three leaders of each group: Cao Cao, Sun Quan/Jian, and Liu Bei as well as Nobunaga Oda, Toyotomi Hideyoshi, and Ieyasu Tokugawa can be organized much the same way. | |

Jack of All Stats | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_ac9f78d9 | comment |
Jack of All Stats: Technique-type characters. They are able to use R1 in the place of the Triangle button to enhance any of their charge attack finishers via the Enhanced Strike/Extra Charge Attack mechanic (one of the said EX Charge Attacks acts as their main Type Action Special depending on the Technique-type in question). They also have an Extra Counter with R1 that can be used when they suffer damage, but all of these actions cost Musou, and most normally enhanced charge attacks are merely sped-up versions anyway (Warriors Orochi 2 makes it so that enhanced C1 and C2 attacks are the only elemental activation C1s and C2s out there, but some Technique-type characters' enhanced charge attacks have a lot more added effects in that said game). Like the Speed-types, in 3, they have reworked mechanics with only one R1 Type Action (that acts mainly as an auxiliary-based possible Launcher Move to setup for their crits on juggled foes), while also having a sidestep mechanic that can be used to proc instant versions of their dashing square attacks. While forcing them to be limited on offense in the vanilla game, Ultimate adds in a new item that allows them to sidestep cancel their charge attacks and Type Actions for very solid offense (as well as a new mechanic with being able to dodge around the opponent when getting hit). Their charge attacks and Type Actions can also deal critical hits on airborne targets. | |

Public Domain Artifact | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_ad8dbae4 | comment |
Public Domain Artifact: The fourth game introduces the Sacred Treasures which allows the characters to conjure magic attacks. These sixteen objects are based from several mythologies such as Greek (Poseidon's Trident, Harpe scythe, the Bow of Artemis, the Nectar, Hermes' Caduceus staff and Talaria boots and Cerberus flail), Norse (Lævateinn sword, Dáinsleif sword, Freyja's BrÃsingamen necklace, the Gleipnir whip, Thor's Mjolnir and Gullinbursti boar) and Asian (Taijitsu mirror, Purging pestle, Totsuka-no-Tsurugi). The five new characters from the Olympian and Asgardian pantheon also have their Sacred Treasures which are also their main weapons such as Zeus' Keraunos staff, Athena's Aegis shield, Ares' Typhon spear, Perseus' Mistilteinn staff and Odin's Gungnir spear. The mounts in the fourth game which are available via pre-bonus content and DLC are named after known folklore and mythological creatures such as Kelpie, Behemoth, Sleipnir, Fenrir, Catoblepas, Pegasus and Unicorn. Some of these mounts even give special attacks such as the Behemoth shooting cannonballs and Fenrir producing wolves. | |

Bootstrapped Leitmotif | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_af21be25 | comment |
Bootstrapped Leitmotif: In 4, the characters with Deification forms each have their own Leitmotif; for those who didn't already have one in their home series, a theme that they were tangentially associated with is repurposed as such. For example, Cao Pi's theme is remixed from the theme of Wei as a whole, and Naotora's comes from the Samurai Warriors Chronicles main theme, as she debuted in that subseries. | |

Tamamo from 3 Ultimate is a darker example. She doesn't use her beauty to enchant men (although hers undoubtedly helps), but she can attract sympathy. Problem is, that sympathy was given by a certain dragon god. Her actions basically caused the whole series to happen. | |

| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_b35e77ee | comment |
Fake Defector: Cao Pi and Mitsunari in the first game. They volunteer to work with Orochi but they are both working together to destroy his forces from within. Once again, Cao Pi plays this role in the fourth game where he collaborates with the Olympians but he's bidding his time to sabotage them from within and learn of their plans which he leaked to his father. Unlike in the first game, he doesn't team up with Mitsunari due to different circumstances. In the fourth game, the humans under the Asgardians pretend to serve for them so they can discover Odin's true plans. It's through them that the coalition finally learn the extent of his goal. The only exceptions are Lu Bu who just wants to fight stronger opponents and Yoshitune who owes Da Ji a favor for saving him and Benkei. | |

Tragic Villain | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_b5171e10 | comment |
Tragic Villain: Orochi, even before you find out about his backstory in 3 Ultimate (which turns him into a massive Woobie). Yinglong was essentially cursed to become what he is because of his strong sense of justice, and for that, he will never be redeemed. While the Heavenly Emperor takes pity on him, he all but states that Yinglong's curse can't be removed, because the demons corrupted his soul. Himiko, who doesn't see her actions as bad, but rather as a way to appease her best gal Da Ji, whom she genuinely loves (whether or not she loves her back is up for debate). As 3 indicates, if Da Ji is endangered, Himiko Ain't Too Proud to Beg and ask the heroes for help. Even Tamamo receives a degree of sympathy from a few characters like Shennong (although the fact that the guy always tries to see the best of anyone helps), despite the horrible things she committed. She originally didn't want to do what she did, but if she did not, she would cease to exist. Other people's anger and sorrow are the only things that keep her alive. You cannot blame her to become mad and jump off the slippery slope. In a way, her ultimate fate is probably the best thing that could happen to both parties. On one hand, the heroes would no longer be manipulated by her. On the other hand, Tamamo continues to exist and can create her own "perfect world" in the Mirror Realm. In general, most villains in the series either did not start out as one, have no choice but to become one, or become stuck in friendships with people who are already evil. It really places an emphasis on Rousseau Was Right. The only exception is Da Ji who does evil things because she likes it. Initially, Loki aids Odin in his plans for total destruction of all life. However, he wants to avenge the deaths of his friends who were killed by Odin during Ragnarok. His time with the humans help him change his view on them which causes him to secretly provide the tools needed to defeat Odin. In the final battle, he is able to get Odin off guard until the latter controls him to fight his former human friends. Knowing that he can't escape from his control, he requests Yukimura to slay him which the latter complies. | |

Confusion Fu | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_b59f6070 | comment |
Confusion Fu: Warriors Orochi 3 adds in the Wonder-type characters. Their R1 Type Actions either border on Combination Attack or Status Buff (akin to the Power-types with the latter), but via their "combination attack stats", they are able to use the Spirit Charge (AKA Shadow Art in Japanese) from Samurai Warriors 3 (but this time, it can be used any airborne actions), and can also inflict critical hits on a stunned target or a target staggered from the Break Guard mechanic. Expect a LOT of possible combo generation from this type. The fourth game removes this type and returns to the original three types. | |

The Last Dance: Meta example. KOEI actually didn't want to continue the series, but the fanbase demanded. So they decided to put everything in 3 as the ultimate Grand Finale of the Orochi series. The results thus far has been positive... so positive that they had to churn out another expansion that makes the True Ending non-canon and opens up possibilities to continue the story. And more guest characters. | |

Mêlée à Trois | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_c6695a49 | comment |
Mêlée à Trois: The fourth game borrows the system from Warriors All-Stars where the characters are initially divided into four groups. Namely, Perseus (Wu, Shu under Liu Bei including Guan Yinping, Takeda, Uesugi, Tokugawa), Zeus (Athena, Ares, Wei under Cao Pi, Shu under Liu Shan including Zhao Yun, Toyotomi), Mystic (Nu Wa, Cyborg Nezha, Hojo, Oda, Date and Jin) and Odin (Lu Bu's faction, Da Ji, Munenori, Kiyomori, Abe no Seimei, Yoshitsune, Jia Chong, Zhong Hui and Kanbei). The fourth game's mission, "The Rescue of Perseus", has the coalition facing both Athena and Da Ji who are fighting each other over Perseus. The mission ends with Perseus still in Da Ji's clutches but of course, this is his ploy because he is actually Loki and Da Ji is working with him. | |

Also counts as Covers Always Lie as seen in the main image. In the second game's opening, Masamune aids the coalition fight Orochi's forces which never ever happens in the game as he is still loyal to Orochi and is only unlocked in Orochi's campaign. The third game's intro has Yukimura, Zhao Yun and the ninjas fighting on top of Hydra which could have been cool in the game but it never happened. | |

Hitler's Time Travel Exemption Act: Moon Princess Kaguya shows up in WO3 to help the last remaining three heroes save everyone who was killed by the Hydra by traveling back in time. One restriction, though: she can't time-travel to before the Hydra emerged because it's created a rend in space/time, so no going back to before its birth and blowing it up then. (Even later, when you find someone who can time-travel further in the past, it turns out to not be so simple.) | |

Lighter and Softer: Koei sure not only wanted these characters battle each other, they have made them have senses of humor talking to each other. The Dream Stages on WO2 furthers this up a bit more, since they're no doubt even more lighthearted than usual. Inverted for Orochi's story on WO2, where, instead, it's Darker and Edgier, most notably on the final battle against Wei. Zigzagged for WO3, which starts with The End of the World as We Know It and requires you to Set Right What Once Went Wrong, but also features goofy side missions. WO4 plays this straight as no one dies here and regardless of the Let's You and Him Fight scenarios, the heroes are very happy to have new allies. It's only when the Asgardians and Orochi X appear that it gets very dark. | |

Developer's Foresight | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_d24ed873 | comment |
Developer's Foresight: Playing a stage using characters other than the recommended ones will usually bring some changes into it, which generally includes generic officers taking their place (if they are allied NPCs in this stage) and some new dialogues. Heck, playing the Rescue Battles in WO3 with the character you're supposed to resuce in your team even creates some hilarious Time Travel confusion. A more significant case was with Wei's Battle of Komaki-Nagakute in Warriors Orochi 2. Under normal gameplay conditions, you're not supposed to reach Orochi as the gates leading to him are locked, and Kiyomori teleports his lord away before you have a chance to fight him. With cheats, however, you can walk past the wall to fight Orochi, here, you actually run into dialogue exclusive to running into him there, and defeating him will still end the stage normally. In 3, if you enter The Slaying Of The Hydra before Chapter 2 is cleared, you get a borderline impossible version of the stage, with no Yashi’ori and only ballistae to fight the Hydra, like in the prologue version. Unlike said prologue version, this one is actually beatable, though you would need a ton of Save Scumming and near perfect performance to have any chance of killing all Hydra heads in the time limit. Should you actually succeed though, there is unique dialogue to accommodate the fact that the Resistance don’t know about the Hydra spawning Orochi clones upon it’s death at this point. | |

No Campaign for the Wicked | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_d291ea97 | comment |
No Campaign for the Wicked: Played straight in the first game, averted in the second. Ah, to crush your enemies, break the wills of the legendary heroes of history, and beat up a few gods... Too bad the Orochi campaign is a prequel to the first game, instead of being set during the events of everyone else's campaigns in the second game. The third game doesn't even have different sides, at least not different sides not controlled by the player. Instead you're collecting as many warriors as you can to fight off the Hydra, and in some demons' cases this means capturing them and impressing them into your service. Some of the guys you collect are pretty evil, though, including Da Ji, and at the end of the game, camp dialogue implies that even the incarnations of Orochi and Tamamo are now part of your army. Some what-if stages in 3 and it's re-releases do feature a stage from a different view, sometimes the villains'. Ultimate especially has several characters remembering a particular hard loss who then revisit the battle in their minds, making the former opponent's side playable. There's also a DLC stage dedicated to Kiyomori, Dodomeki and Gyūki setting out to find victims for Kiyomori's brainwashing sorcery. The fourth game plays this straight due to being very linear which means players never to get to play the characters who are under the Olympians and the Asgardians....unless there might be an expansion or DLC. | |

We Cannot Go On Without You: If the character currently controlled dies, it's Game Over, even if the other two characters are still at full health. Averted in Gauntlet Mode in 3 Ultimate, where you control a squad of five characters that are all out. If one of them dies, you can still use one of the others. However unless if you revive them before the exit, you will lose them for the stage. | |

Guest Fighter | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_d687ba2a | comment |
Guest Fighter: Since 3, they started introducing characters outside the both Samurai/Dynasty Warriors series or original creations, starting with Joan of Arc, Achilles and Nemea... and due to the merging with Tecmo, they're able to put in Ryu Hayabusa and Ayane. As they gave out more additions, they started giving out Rachel, Momiji and eventually as of Ultimate, they also brought in Kasumi, followed by Sterkenburg. All of them are Koei-Tecmo properties... when suddenly, they introduced Sophitia, who is from a Bandai Namco Entertainment property. That's some high level of 'guest'. Averted with 4, which leaves out all the guest characters that were included in 3 in favor of bringing in more characters from Dynasty and Samurai Warriors, as well as more Original Generation characters. | |

Anti-Frustration Features | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_d6f284a3 | comment |
Anti-Frustration Features: Rather than being forced to level grind each character individually, you can level up characters automatically from a menu using experience collected from battle. This lets you avoid characters from being left in the gutter completely. In 3 Ultimate, Gauntlet Mode automatically saves if you win or lose a level. In the Story or Free Mode, you will automatically lose all progress you made since the last battle if you don't manually save and you lose the battle, while in Gauntlet Mode losing doesn't impose the same penalty. This may seem a bit odd, but considering that Gauntlet Mode uses Dynamic Difficulty to make everything Nintendo Hard, and add in that winning means finding the one area out of multiple on a stage that could randomly be the exit, this makes the penalty for losing less frustrating as, while you still lose almost all loot from the level, you don't lose anything else. Also in Gauntlet Mode, when you beat the game, you will get three unique levels, marked as "DLC levels", that you can play. the first one is a one star mission. however, if you construct a high enough combo, all enemies will automatically start dropping exp scrolls that go to you. In Gauntlet Mode, a level one character will not be as useful as a level 50 or above character, allowing you to power-level characters quickly for the mode and Story Mode. | |

Speaking of the fourth game, the new story scenario of its Ultimate version retroactively sours the original ending by establishing that Odin's soul is being held separate from his body, so destroying him as the heroes did there would just lead to him eventually returning to life. | |

Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_dba1f5b5 | comment |
Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny: The long awaited rivalry between Lu Bu and Tadakatsu Honda. Toss in Achilles for good measure. Also, a number of the Dream Stages in the second game and DLC stages in the third game play out like this. The Three Kingdoms leaders vs. the Unifiers of Japan, the legends of the Heike vs. the Daimyo of the Sengoku, the gods vs. the best of the mortals, Tadakatsu Honda, Lu Bu, Keiji Maeda vs. Orochi... the list goes on! Ramped up again in Warriors Orochi 3. Take all those, add the bona fide Greek Badass Achilles, and the badass Video Game Ninja Ryu Hayabusa and you're in for an ultimate showdown. (Mildly disproved in that Nezha apparently > Lu Bu and Achilles though.) | |

Futureshadowing: One stage in 3 Ultimate takes place long before the events of the series and depicts Fu Xi, Nezha, and Yinglong against Kyubi and her army of demons. Basically all dialogues in there are loaded with futureshadowing, either referring to the present conflict with Tamamo or Yinglong's outlook in life and eventual fate. This bit particularly stands out: | |

History Repeats | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_e003c829 | comment |
History Repeats: The some of the events in Chapter 3 and 4 of the fourth game are somewhat similar to what happened in the first game: Athena holds Liu Shan hostage to ensure that Zhao Yun and the younger Shu officers cooperate with her which is exactly what Da Ji did to Zhuge Liang and the Sun siblings by imprisoning Liu Bei and Sun Jian. Likewise, Liu Shan's rescue is also similar to Sun Jian and Quan's rescue where Hattori Hanzo himself participates. Once again, Cao Pi and Mitsunari made an alliance with a foreign entity (Ares) which force them to fight their fellow humans while appearing loyal to their lord. However, these two are bidding their time to sabotage them from within. The difference is that the two men are not working together unlike in the first game; Mitsunari does the same thing that Cao Pi did in first game which is openly rebelling against his master and defecting to the coalition. Similar to Zhuge Liang in the first game, Cao Pi remains loyal to Ares but he does this to find out their weak points so he can leak them to the resistance and eventually sides back to humanity once the Greek gods put their guard down. Even Jia Chong does the same thing that Zhuge Liang did to Da Ji which even includes a burning castle except that the latter already suspects his betrayal and commands Gyuki to crush him. | |

Humans Are Special | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_e0207930 | comment |
Humans Are Special: A common view shared by the mystics which is one of the few reasons why they help them against Orochi. Of course, some of them such as Nezha and Susan'o don't see it that way until they are defeated many times by them and by the fourth game, their view on humanity improved thanks to that experience. Even Orochi seems to hold this view too because they are Worthy Opponents. | |

Fake Difficulty: Chaos difficulty is no different from Hard, for the most part. Enemies have the same HP (more or less), AI is the same, they deal the same amount of damage... the only difference is that their attacks completely ignore defense. A regular Mook can now kill you in four hits. Did we mention you will often be surrounded by a few hundred mooks, with a few officers in the middle to spice things up? Enjoy. | |

Divergent Character Evolution: In the third installment, characters who share a weapon moveset in Dynasty Warriors 7 possess different charge attacks similarly to earlier Dynasty Warriors titles. Some of them are moves from these earlier titles. In 2, Orochi X was just a One-Winged Angel form for Orochi, in 3 Orochi X is the manifistation of the Hydra and by extension, an embodiment of Orochi's raw power and desire for destruction. | |

Asian Fox Spirit | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_e6c72641 | comment |
Asian Fox Spirit: Da Ji is called a fox many times and her feet doesn't hide this fact any little. Seimei Abe has a fox spirit sitting on his right shoulder. According to some legends, Seimei himself is half-fox (and indeed the game references this in one of his conversations with Da Ji). And then there are Tamamo and Kyūbi. Her alliance with Da Ji actually makes sense for those well-versed in Chinese/Japanese mythology.note In some legends, Da Ji, Kyubi, and Tamamo are all the same person impersonating different identities throughout history. The real thing is Kyubi, who first took up the name Da Ji and became King Zhou's consort. While history states that she was murdered by Jiang Ziya (AKA Taigong Wang), in Japanese folklore, she survived and went into hiding, then resurfaced more than two millennia later to become Tamamo-no-Mae, a courtesan of Emperor Toba. In both cases, she went on to wreck the empires her spouses ruled with her cruelty. | |

Crossover Cosmology: There are gods and demons from Chinese and Japanese legends, but in 3 you also have Achilles, straight out of Greek mythology. The fourth games adds the Olympians and the Norse gods along with mythical creatures. The characters also wield Sacred Treasures based from Greek, Norse, Japanese and Chinese mythologies which are replacement for the R1 attacks while eight characters have Deification forms based on Greek, Norse and in Nobunaga's case, Japanese gods. | |

The Vamp: Zhenji, N�, and Da Ji. The three of them can even perform a special triple attack together in the second game. Tamamo from 3 Ultimate is a darker example. She doesn't use her beauty to enchant men (although hers undoubtedly helps), but she can attract sympathy. Problem is, that sympathy was given by a certain dragon god. Her actions basically caused the whole series to happen. | |

Ensemble Cast: Given that there are 170 characters in the fourth game, the game tries its best to give screentime to all of them. Despite that the eight characters who have Deification forms are given more appearances in the cutscenes, they're not really considered as the main characters. Out of the eight, Yukimura is possibly the closest of being the protagonist due to his close friendship with Perseus. Even the coalition doesn't have a definite leader and out of the leader characters, Liu Bei and Nobunaga maybe considered as the top leaders. | |

Decapitated Army: Losing the commander means an instant defeat, both for you and your enemies. That feature makes the commanders' Leeroy Jenkins tendencies quite annoying. | |

You Are in Command Now | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_ed2bbf8a | comment |
You Are in Command Now: The first game starts like this for the three factions: Zhao Yun for Shu, Cao Pi for Wei, and Sun Ce Wu; Liu Bei and Sun Jian are imprisoned while Cao Cao is presumed dead. Samurai faction is the only one that avert this, where Nobunaga is the main protagonist and leader of his own army before forming alliance with other clans/coalition armies. | |

Fighter, Mage, Thief | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_edae412c | comment |
Fighter, Mage, Thief: Characters are classified by three categories: Power (who hit harder and are Immune to Flinching), Technique (who can sidestep while blocking or being attacked and can deal Critical Hits on airborne enemies) and Speed (who can Air Dash as well as jump cancel their attacks). The third game adds Wonder (who can cancel any of their attacks with a forward dash that breaks guards, along with dealing Critical Hits like Technique characters). | |

Popularity Power | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_ee30ce4b | comment |
Popularity Power: In WO4, the Deification form is usually given to those who scored spectacularly in many popularity polls Koei has given in the net. Aside from the obvious mascots (Zhao Yun and Yukimura), we also got Mitsunari, Cao Pi, Guan Yinping, Naotora and Lu Bu getting them. However, Nobunaga himself also gets a Deification despite not being on the top ten of polls; but again, he IS a very popular figure in Japan. | |

Names to Run Away from Really Fast | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_f336d68c | comment |
Names To Runaway From Really Fast: Names for several Demon and Mystic officers in 3: Ultimate ignore their respective theme naming and instead opt to use "as long as it sounds cool/menacing" names, such as Death, Pestilence, War, Storm, Brimstones, Ocean, Thunder, Victory, etc. | |

Wake-Up Call Boss | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_f4a0408f | comment |
Wake-Up Call Boss: In WO3, Yuan Shao and Himiko are this, depending on the route you take. Yuan Shao is a competent fighter, having quick, strong attacks, strong bodyguards, as well as having an unblockable Musou Attack which deals great damage, hits twice and has long range. It's a OHKO/2HKO at this point for all your characters. For the other route, there's Himiko, who has the strongest Musou Attack in the game, however it can be blocked (If you are fast enough to react). Unless your character is Lu Bu or Ryu Hayabusa, you are pretty much dead if you get hit by it. In the Gauntlet/Unlimited Mode in 3 Ultimate the level that unlocks stage 2 because it's the first set of levels that has 3 battlefields and the last one is battle with Nobunaga and his army with some scripted events that can make you waste time and allow the Miasma Level to rise. | |

Earn Your Happy Ending | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_f64a9cf7 | comment |
Earn Your Happy Ending: If you want to get the best possible ending of 3, you have to recruit 124 out of 132 characters in the game (the others are unlocked after you get the aforementioned ending). These include all the DW and SW characters. You either have to save them from death, thoroughly find them, get them out of retirement, beat the shit out of them so they'll change sides, etc. If you know the ending, it makes sense when you think about it. The world is destroyed, and the mystics send everyone in the Resistance back to their original worlds. If you leave even a single soul behind, that means you will deny them the right to live in their original time, and, worse yet, cause a Ret-Gone since all of the mortals' memories of the dimensional world are wiped out in the process. No One Gets Left Behind. | |

Great Offscreen War | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_f722f635 | comment |
Great Offscreen War: The destructive war Orochi instigated in the human world centuries ago that led to his imprisonment is mentioned often but never shown. In 3 Ultimate, we briefly see the prelude to it at the end of Chapter 7. Ragnarok is a significant backstory in 4. It explains why Odin and Loki are the only survivors of the Norse pantheon and why the former is so deathly afraid of his mortality. | |

Historical Beauty Update | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_f740a274 | comment |
Historical Beauty Update: Wasn't Taigong Wang supposed to be an old man? (Then again, those times are Shrouded in Myth and Taigong Wang's name is actually a reference to how the future King of Zhou's father had told him to keep an eye out for a good strategist, so his name means "the one hoped for by my honored father".) | |

Distressed Dude | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_f9e16ef | comment |
Distressed Dude: In the first game, Liu Bei and Sun Jian are captured by Orochi which forces Zhuge Liang and the Sun siblings to fight for him in exchange of their freedom. In the Wu chapter, Sun Ce with the help of Hanzo are able to rescue to his father and brother from execution while in the Shu chapter, Zhao Yun with the combined effort of Zhuge Liang and their allies defeat Orochi and save Liu Bei. In the dream stage from the second game, Dong Zhuo seems to capture Cao Pi with the other female officers, possibly to lure Zhenji out of the open. After saving him, Cao Pi muses that he's never going to live down with this. In another dream stage, Daqiao, Sun Shangxiang and Oichi have to save their husbands from Da Ji's forces. They also help Zhurong protect her husband, Meng Huo and in return, they help out in the rescue. In the fourth game, Athena takes Liu Shan hostage, forcing Zhao Yun and younger Shu officers (excluding Guan Ping and Yinping) to fight for her. After Bao Sanniang and the ninjas (minus Nene who is on the Olympians' side) save Liu Shan, Zhao Yun and the rest of the officers immediately side with the coalition. Also in the fourth game, Hideyoshi nearly suffers this knowing what had happened to Liu Shan which is also his reason for accepting Ares' deal on "King of Men". Of course, he's aware of Ares' deception and once Mitsunari activates his Deification form, he requests his loyal retainer to come up with a plan to escape from the Olympians. The side mission "Family Bonds" in the fourth installment has Hayakawa and Sun Shangxiang saving their fathers from being run over by their enemies with Lu Lingqi's help. | |

Sequence Breaking | |
| Warriors Orochi (Video Game) / int_fb111d49 | comment |
Sequence Breaking: In the third game's Gauntlet Mode, the DLC stage "Heavenly Emperor's Palace", Hundun can be defeated by having the in-game messages pop up to the point the game cannot keep up with the script! note Normally, you're supposed to disable four power crystals to weaken Hundun. But the player has the option to skip but one to attack Hundun, who is buffed up and revives after his HP hits a certain range with a message. However, players using the "Getaway" formation skill will have the game state "This formation is locked" each time they try to use it. This has a side effect of stalling the script of the map, and the game cannot keep up with the messages needed to automatically restore Hundun. | |

In 2, Orochi X was just a One-Winged Angel form for Orochi, in 3 Orochi X is the manifistation of the Hydra and by extension, an embodiment of Orochi's raw power and desire for destruction. | |
