1.	What is your name and which server is your citadel in?

柚葉 (Yuzuha), Bungou no Kuni

'''2.	When did you start serving as a saniwa? Please display your battle records.'''

11th March 2015

Records

'''3.	Which starter sword did you pick? What is he doing now?'''

Hachisuka Kotetsu (wwwww). He’s doing fine, been stuck at level 74 for quite a long time though.

'''4.	Who is the first among your swords to reach the maximum level? What do you think of him?'''

Jiroutachi. I hoped it would be Taroutachi, but his little brother stole that last decisive MVP and then… yeah. I quite like Jirou.

'''5.	Who do you have in each of your squads, and how do you use them? If you haven’t unlocked all four teams yet, briefly describe how you plan to organize them.'''

2nd, 3rd, and 4th team are always on expedition. 1st team’s member changes according to which sortie I’m off to – lvl 1 Yagen/lvl 1 Tarou alone when I’m idle.

6.	Without considering the performance of the swords, which type of sword do you prefer?

Naginata, I’d always wanted to try wielding one.

'''7.	Next, we come to the usual questions. List the swords that you like and your thoughts on them.'''

DISCLAIMER: Random babbling and shoddily strung sentences ahead.

Taroutachi – I’m a sucker for long haired characters. And also his golden nails and red kohl. Taroutachi’s usual holy sword behavior hides the undertones of insecurity over his inability to be used in actual combats, his complex about his size, and also some random bouts of shyness… and I find that extremely endearing.

Kogitsunemaru - How can his hair look that mofumofu?? There are so many things I want to do with his hair. The disparity between his wild look and his soft personality is cute. For some reasons I'm really smitten by his citadel lines. I also really like the style of his sprite art. Lastly, Kondo Takashi.

I just listed a few faves, but I really like all swords. This will probably turn into a thesis complete with citations and bibliography if I write why I love them all.

'''8.	Are there any pairings that you like? If there, please list them. (No limit on type.)'''

Brotherly TarouJirou, father-son-ish/caretaker-ish IwaIma, familial Samonji brothers, brotherly (O)dategumi, familial Awataguchi. I’m fine with whatever romantic ships you throw at me (within certain limits), but I don’t really ship any myself.

9.	Is your citadel an employee-friendly citadel or a black-hearted citadel that works your swords to the bone?

(Sees Mitsutada & co that’re on sortie 24/7)

Uh… I guess the answer depends on whether this question is asked in literal or in-game sense. Since the swords actually get less tired from winning battles then I can work them to the bone without working them to the bone. Yes I’m making perfect sense here. While some of my swords are always out on either expedition or battles, I ensure you that all of my non-dupe swords are in sakura fubuki state and I repair them as soon as they get any damage, no matter how insignificant.

10.	Have you ever done anything weird to your swords?

I had a hard time warming up to Kuri, so for the first few months I deliberately never let him be in the same team with Mitsu or equip the horse that Mitsu just equipped just to spite him.

My attitude towards him is much better now though, paps Kuri

慣れ合うつもりはない

ok ; ;

'''11.	Have you ever broken a sword? What happened, and who did you break?'''

Never, and I hope never will.

'''12.	Who loses troops the most in your citadel? And who is the most skilled at making troops?'''

Sigh, Nihongou... I have never had a sword breaking 14 golden troops in a day before him.

I don’t pay attention to secretary sword when making troops so idk.

'''13.	Another common question: have you ever done something with all of your might in order to get a particular sword? Please describe what you did and the results.'''

I grinded 5-3, I don’t know for how many times, to get Kogi. It was so bad that I actually remembered the enemy composition for each node. The map was a night battle map back then and the kbc frustrated me pretty much… Thankfully I got him after two months, I think.

'''14.	Are you superstitious? (www)'''

Nay.

'''15.	What made you join the TKRB fandom in the beginning? How about now?'''

It suddenly flooded my timeline in January. I got pretty curious and decided to give it a try. I didn’t register until March because of school though.

'''16.	What do you think of the current maps? (For example: which map is good for training/grinding, which maps do you get lost in the most, which map do you want to burn?)'''

Good grinding maps: 2-4 (Iwatooshi special), 4-1, 4-4, 5-4. Basically I love maps with many nodes. I don’t particularly remember getting lost...

17.	Are there any game systems or improvements that you hope DMM will implement?

FURNITURE!! Ahem… also more strategy please. I kind of want them to implement that swords consume whetstone for every sortie as well because I find it weird that they don’t get dull at all even if sortied 1000x (but since I can already hear fans’ outcry I guess it’s pretty impossible).

18.	If DMM cooperates on an event with another game/anime/etc., what would you like to see?

Pokemon

… what? Imagine playing Touken Ranbu GO!

'''19.	Have you spent money playing TKRB? If so, how much? If not, do you plan to?'''

Nope. But if they add more swords I guess I’ll end up buying more inventory space.

20.	Is there any merchandise that you would like to buy or see?

I want Nakigitsune’s mask!

'''21.	Have you done any fanwork (fanfiction, fanart, etc.)? If so, what?'''

Nothing beyond some simple fanart doodles.

22.	What do you think you are like as a saniwa?

I will be a saniwa that can’t boss my swords around, so I probably will have a hard time sending Kousetsu to battle and finding someone willing to do the fieldwork duty. Why do most swords hate fieldwork duty anyway, it’s much better than horse duty imho.

23.	If the government asked you to choose a sword to kill yourself with in terms of emergency, who would you pick?

For execution-style, Heshikiri Hasebe, he will understand that it’s a duty and will not hesitate. For seppuku, Hirano Toushirou, so he can accompany me to the end.

24.	The government has asked you to write a report: how would you describe the situation in your citadel?

I will (ask Hasebe to) write a summary of current resource and item status, sword status, and battle progress.

Also attached: an urgent request for the government to send a psychiatrist because the saniwa has a serious hoarding tendencies.

25.	What do you think of the Retrograding Army?

I have shower thoughts that maybe they are swords from another saniwas that caved in to temptation and want to turn history around.

26.	Lastly, please say something about TKRB from the bottom of your heart!

Congratulations for being the first franchise that’s succeeded to make me buy their frikkin pricey nendoroids!
