Line 3:
* [[Cargo Ship]]: Kojuro x Vegetables
** Also Hisahide x Teapot
* [[Crowning Moment of Funny]]: Yukimura's adorable/hilarious reaction to seeing Shingen still alive, [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uqiA4JL53vs before getting punched in the face], from SB3.
* [[Crowning Music of Awesome]]: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-JACVPjTW8o "Crosswise"], by T.M. Revolution. Also serves as the opening theme of ''Cross'' and plays during every character's [[Finishing Move|Basara K.O.]]
** The games have been highly applauded for their brilliant soundtracks. If nothing else, the music in this series always attracts positive praise.
** Like Fuuma's theme. ''[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xYjg2tFf2FI Disagree with me, I dare you.]''
** Dear God, [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8M_xQDM91lY Motochika's theme]!
** Masamune's original theme, [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HMsSziVzE3U "Thunderbolt"].
** His anime leitmotif may be more popular, but the third remix of Nobunaga's [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H_yphFhOjHo "The Abyss"] is awesome too.
** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xNunvcQQbAE&hd=1 "Unification of the Land"] from the third game.
* [[Ensemble Darkhorse]]: Which is one way to get promoted from NPC to playable character. Motochika and Motonari were popular NPCs that got promoted into playable characters in the second game. From the second game to the expansion pack, Kojuro, Nagamasa and Oichi. But mainly '''Kojuro''' (the one who spawns the most fanart between those three). And there was much boo-ing when he got [[Demoted to Extra|Demoted To NPC]]
** And special mention to Oichi. Mind you, this is a series dominated with [[Cast Full of Pretty Boys|pretty and manly boys]], but the Oichi fanbase is very very solid when compared to other female characters, which includes her being the only playable female in the fighting game and returning in ''3''.
* [[Ho Yay Shipping]]: Unlike the ''[[Dynasty Warriors]]'' series which has a good share of both yaoi and straight doujins, SB is practically flooded with yaoi (with Masamune/Yukimura, Kojuro/Masamune, and Motochika/Motonari being the most popular) with the occasional Oichi/Kasuga hentai. Makes sense as ''Sengoku Basara'' doesn't have many female characters.
* [[Macekre]]: The game was called ''Devil Kings'' in the U.S, the producer attempting (and failing) to make a [[Darker and Edgier]] version.
* [[Misaimed Fandom]]: Has about three times as many female fans as it does male fans.
* [[They Changed It, Now It Sucks]]: Shortly before ''Basara 3'' came out, many fans were baying for Kobayashi's blood for overloading the game with NPCs. Some still are.
** Things may get better with ''Sengoku Basara 3: Utage'' where many characters (including Kojuro, Tenkai and Matsunaga of all people) return as playable characters.
* [[This Is Your Premise on Drugs]]: ''[[Samurai Warriors]]'' on steroids... and lots of crack.
* [[Toy Ship]]: Itsuki and Ranmaru, who are both about 12 years old.
* [[Wangst]]: Mitsunari's ramblings sometimes stray into this territory.
=== Subjectives from [[The Anime of the Game|the anime]]: ===
* [[Cargo Ship]]: Kojuro and his vegetables.
* [[Complete Monster]]: Nobunaga and Mitsuhide in season 1. Hisahide has his moments too.
* [[Creepy Awesome]]: Mitsuhide. He's a [[White-Haired Pretty Boy]] [[Soft
* [[Crowning Moment of Funny]]: Episode 5: [[Elite Mook|Naoe Kanetsugu]] getting WTFPWN'D by Tadakatsu and again second season in episode 3 by Toshiie.
** The typical routine between Toshiie and Matsu.
** Season 2, episode 9: Motochika and Masamune coming up with the ''exact same plan'' to attack Osaka, only with the roles of who does what being reversed. Then starting a fight over it while protesting how they are nothing like each other.
* [[Crowning Music of Awesome]]: The whole soundtrack. Particularly [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PjqTcfEr4d8 "JAP"] by [[Abingdon Boys School]], the first anime opening which gives "Crosswise" a run for its money in popularity and, for many, has come to symbolise the whole spirit of the series.
** The [[Ominous Latin Chanting|Ominous German Chanting]] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DgUqq2SbCqM "Devil King of the Sixth Heaven"], [[Big Bad|Oda Nobunaga's]] [[Leitmotif]] (reprised in season 2 by a single female vocalist in a truly awesome remix).
** Yukimura's theme, [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nv3i3Tz72uM "BLAZE Crimson Lotus"], and naturally, [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_xlwTWfVWAI "Shut Up, Go To Hell"].
** From season two, [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jflk8ttHt5U "Edge of a Sword"].
* [[Foe Yay]]:
** Kenshin with Shingen. Spades of it. He also seems to flirt with Shingen Junior a.k.a Yukimura a couple of times. Then there's him nicknaming Masamune the 'Beautiful Dragon'.
Line 49:
* [[Freud Was Right]]: Motochika's giant... cannon.
* [[Memetic Mutation]]: '''"ARE YOU READY GUYS?! PUT YA GUNZ ON!!"'''
** And manly bonding sessions consisting of screaming names while punching each other in the face.
* [[Tear Jerker]]: {{spoiler|Nagamasa's death. Poor Oichi... also Tadakatsu.}}
{{quote|
** Keiji forced {{spoiler|to fight his foster father Toshiie}} in season 2.
* [[They Changed It, Now It Sucks]]: There was a lot of raging when it turned out "Put your guns on!" was completely changed in the dub.
