26 Questions for the Saniwa (taken from the forums here)

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

あかり (Akari), Hizen no Kuni

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

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

Kashuu Kiyomitsu. He's helping out in expeditions as necessary. I don't want him to go out but I don't have a lot of level 99 swords left after the wakizashis had their kiwame ;_;

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

Kashuu Kiyomitsu <3 Of course he's the first one I'd level to 99. If it wasn't for him, I wouldn't have everyone else.

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.

First Unit- mainly used for sorties and events. Members of the team are changed as necessary.

Second Unit- usually Kasen or Doudanuki, mainly used for expedition A1 or B1 since these are the expeditions I run the most on a daily basis.

Third Unit- usually Shishiou or Ichigo, used for expedition B3

Fourth Unit- usually Shishiou/ Ichigo along with Hachisuka/ Izuminokami, used for expedition B4

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

Uchigatana. I like how "balanced" they are (neither too weak nor too strong in maps) and that they can equip long-range troops.

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

I don't really hate a particular sword unless they drop like three times in a row during events (I'm looking at you, Souza, Sayo, Horikawa...) and even then, I get over it fairly quickly. I love all my sword boys, but I am biased for these four:

Kashuu Kiyomitsu - I'd run out of space here if I typed all my thoughts about him. Although I wish his seiyuu would release an R-18 otome cd... (shifty eyes)

Yagen Toushirou- he wasn't in my list at first but he slowly grew on me (and that voice... *shivers*)

Heshikiri Hasebe- I had a hard time remembering his name at the beginning (confused whether it was "Hasebe" or "Hesabe") but his loyalty and devotion to the saniwa is unmatched. I'm glad he seems to have more fans now, judging by how expensive some of his merchandise can go for.

Shokudaikiri Mitsutada- honestly speaking, out of my four biases, Micchan is the closest you can get to my ideal boyfriend/ husband in real life. I love that he can cook and takes care of everyone, and is in general, quite a nice guy. His "vain" side is quite endearing in some ways. * w *

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

Izuminokami and Horikawa are cute together~

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

Playing 15 hours a day on weekends with no breaks between expeditions? Yeah I think I'm a kuso aruji

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

... I like to make my TKRB Nendoroids cross-dress?

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

I once thought of sacrificing a level 56 Nikkari to get through world 6 (can't remember which map); thankfully, he didn't break. That was the closest I got to breaking a sword.

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

Wasn't able to keep track on who loses the most troops. Kashuu is surprisingly skilled * w *

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.

Two instances come to mind:

a. Smithed Tomoegata after 160 tries and a lot of crying, begging, and swearing

b. Obtained all five UTC Toushirou tantous in UTC 8 after over 2000 battles and a lot of crying, begging, and swearing ̶a̶n̶d̶ ̶n̶e̶a̶r̶l̶y̶ ̶d̶y̶i̶n̶g̶

14.      Are you superstitious? (www)

Is this a trick question?

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

A lot of my friends in the anime fandom used to play it back in 2015; didn't know shit about how to register and make an account so I passed on it. Almost two years later, I saw a lot of nice figures being released for the series and figured (lol) it was time to try again.

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?)

4-3 is good for leveling up/ babysitting swords (as long as they can withstand the enemies' long-range troops)

7-1 and 7-3 can get lost for all I care (̶w̶a̶i̶t̶,̶ ̶d̶o̶n̶'̶t̶,̶ ̶I̶ ̶d̶o̶n̶'̶t̶ ̶h̶a̶v̶e̶ ̶M̶o̶n̶o̶y̶o̶n̶ ̶a̶n̶d̶ ̶K̶i̶k̶k̶o̶u̶ ̶y̶e̶t̶ ̶T̶ ̶_̶_̶_̶ ̶T̶)̶

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

a. Please put Kiwame items for sale in the shop, I don't mind spending as long as I can complete my sword book

b. Items that can increase chances of rare drops? Pretty please~

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

Can't think of any as of the moment. TKRB is my only fandom for now so adding another one to it would be very bad for my wallet OTL

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

Yes

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

I'd love to see official dakimakuras * w *

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

Fanart that should never see the light of day

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

Extremely lazy but also extremely competitive, if that makes sense (shrugs). I think I'm a pretty lax aruji; I don't make my boys do any chores! Of course, this will come back later to bite me in the ass OTL

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

I think Hasebe would be the best choice, out of my biases.

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

Please send food rations, the aruji is a lazy shit

25.      What do you think of the Retrograding Army?

I'd love to find out why it's said that they're similar to the touken danshi. What are their reasons for trying to change history? I have ideas about this, but I'd like it if things were made official.

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

Better late playing this than never (is shot)

On a more serious note, in the simplest way that I can:

I love this game. Please never ever close it. And if you have to, please make an English port or find some way to carry over the old accounts. :D
