Nightmare’s trail eventually disappeared, but Mitsurugi was unwilling to give up, and gradually improved his fighting style to the point riflemen were no longer a threat.

It was during this quest that he learned of the Azure Knight, Nightmare, who terrorized Europe with a sword deemed invincible, and set out after him in order to find what he considered a worthy challenge (this being his motivation through the remainder of the series since Soulcalibur). In his frustration of finding no signs of Soul Edge, he returned home and challenged Teppou Hei, a man wielding the tanegashima to a duel, but suffered an embarrassing defeat, leaving him with a scar of a gunshot wound on his right shoulder and forcing him to depart in shame on a second quest to perfect his swordsmanship so that he might eventually defeat the gun.

Alot more interesting than taki or Setsuka by far. And throughout the series has been pretty consistent in his story. Mitsurugi is literally the most badass character 8n the game. Mitsurugi encountered the female ninja Taki during this time, but was unable to find any trace of the legendary “Hero’s Sword”. Was better in V.i mean i like the character but he wasnt given much love in this patch. He decided he needs to find a stronger weapon for himself: the magic sword of legend: Soul Edge. Having originally dismissed the firearm as a novelty, he was shocked to see the riflemen obliterate the Takeda cavalry at the Battle of Nagashino. After leaving the Murakami clan, Mitsurugi continued to fight in the great civil war in Japan as a hired mercenary. Mitsurugi, noted as a great warrior, received numerous commendations and rose in the ranks, but his only true desire was a worthy opponent. At the age of 14, having picked up a sword and the last name Mitsurugi, he went to train under the Murakami clan. Thank goodness because that sounds stupid.In the backstory of Soul Edge, Heishiro is an orphaned son of a Japanese farmer, who after suffering years of witnessing his homeland being ravaged by bandits and war, he decided to take up swordsmanship.

The story was going to be very different, with Raphael summoning 'the Demon King' at the end.

(I bet subsets of the fanbase would hate Talim even more if they went through with that.) Talim was also supposed to have a 'selfish personality'.

Talim's weapons were supposed to be much larger but were later reduced in size, possibly due to motion restrictions.You can see art and in-game screenshots of it in early articles. That Astaroth design almost made it into the game.The unknown ninja's name is currently unknown, but apparently it had something to do with 'snow'.They're still not great, but they're better. Unfortunately, the only existing screenshots of this trailer are very small and the characters are mostly silhouettes. The very first trailer for SC2 (titled 'The Next Chapter Of SoulCalibur') shows renders of Seidou, the unknown ninja, and Nightmare.Unless the latter is actually Seidou disguising himself during his infiltration of the Ryukyu kingdom or something, but still, I'm doubtful.Īnd since this SC2 art is going to be the only thing I think about for the next week, here's some other bits of info relating to it: New Legends of Project Soul lists Seidou and Mitsurugi's 'brother' as two separate entities, so I doubt that they were meant to be the same character.
