There is also a manga adaption, ''Sengoku Basara Ranse Ranbu''. The first, second and third games have also been made into manga, all by different artists. A [[High School AU]] called ''Basara Academy'' has been published, with two volumes so far.
It should also be noted that this game has a parody of itself made by [[Alice Soft]], namely an [[H
Not to be confused with the shoujo manga ''[[Basara]]''.

* [[Bodyguard Crush]]: Kasuga and Kenshin.
Line 132:
* [[Easy Evangelism]]: Occasionally Xavism proves to be more effective than it seems. Motonari, Yoshihiro and Kanbe have all shown up as Xavists, with Motonari still having some deeply suppressed sentiments.
* [[Elaborate Equals Effective]]: Though sometimes it's subverted.
* [[Elemental Powers]]: Include [[Playing
* [[Epic Flail]]: Kanbe, using the ball and chain attacked to the stocks binding his wrists together to do some serious damage, including [[Blow You Away|the occasional storm]].
* [[Estrogen Brigade Bait]]: The male characters. Come in all shapes and sizes, with plenty of angst and a nice voice cast. Every one of them has to appeal to ''some'' sort of fetish.
* [[Everything's Better
* [[Everything's Better
* [[Evil Is Hammy]]
* [[Evil Sounds Deep]]: Nobunaga, Mitsuhide, Hideyoshi, Yoshitsugu, Mitsunari (though he's not really evil per se).
Line 180:
** Also, the war machines that show up as occasional mini-bosses. Motochika seems especially fond of using these against the player. Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you... [[Fan Nickname|TOAD-BOAT!]]
* [[Improbable Weapon User]]: Pick a character. Any character...
** Joke items made it even worse, as in [[Blade
* [[Instant Awesome, Just Add Mecha]]: Well it would still be awesome without Tadakatsu, but I mean COME ON!
* [[Instant Fanclub]]: I-TSU-KI-CHAAAAANNNN!!!
Line 236:
* [[Pigeonholed Voice Actor]]: Let's just say, whoever chose the voice cast for this game knew to pick voice actors by role - about the only one ''lacking'' is [[Nobuyuki Hiyama]].
** ... Who already plays [[Smug Snake|Masamune]] and [[Chaotic Evil|Kotaro]] in ''[[Samurai Warriors]]''.
** [[Soichiro Hoshi]], however, might be [[Playing Against Type]], since his more known type is the likes of [[Gundam Seed|Kira Yamato]]. They probably know Kazuma of ''[[
** [[Noriaki Sugiyama]] is defiantly [[Playing Against Type]]. He normally does male tsunderes and stoics. In this he is, well, [[Sissy Villain|Otomo Sorin]].

*** To the point that several of his scenes in the anime were lifted straight from ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam 00|Gundam Exia.]]''
** [[Kamen Rider Black RX|I am the child of the sun!]]
** Masamune's new joke weapon in ''3'' is a set of spark plug beam sabres and motorcycle exhaust pipes. His seiyuu also provided the voice for [[No More Heroes|Travis Touchdown]] in its JP release.
** Ieyasu's joke weapon in ''3'' is a pair of drill gauntlets called [[Mega Man (
* [[Sinister Scythe]]: Mitsuhide. Twice the scythes means twice as sinister.
* [[Sissy Villain]]: Yoshimoto Imagawa, Mitsuhide Akechi. In the third game there's Otomo Sorin.
Line 277:
** [[Did Not Do the Research|Except that they did it with Oichi and Nouhime too, to a greater and more implausible extent. So they don't exactly "avoid" that much.]] Nevermind the fact that Saika Magoichi was historically a guy as well.
* [[Solar and Lunar]]: In the third game, Ieyasu is represented by the sun and Mitsunari by [[Lunacy|the moon]]. The Battle of Sekigahara is represented as [[Total Eclipse of the Plot|a solar eclipse]].
* [[Stay in
** Taken [[Up to Eleven]] in the manga and in the anime: it almost seems like [[Unfortunate Implications|they think that a woman actually winning a battle against a named character is sin.]] Of course averted in the actual gameplay.
* [[Stock Ninja Weaponry]]: Sasuke, Kasuga, and Kotaro all use appropriate Ninja weapons, namely a [[Fuuma Shuriken]], kunai, and a couple of Ninjato.
Line 310:
* [[Absurdly Sharp Blade]]: Sharp enough to cut through ''solid granite'' anyway...
* [[Affectionate Gesture to

Line 318:
* [[Badass in Distress]]: {{spoiler|Two people on the battlefield noticed that Kojuro faked out [[Evil Genius|Takenaka Hanbe]]. One of them was Sasuke; the other one, unfortunately, was Hanbe himself. He [[Kick the Dog|retaliates]] [[The Mole|as]] [[Innocent Bystander|only]] [[Terms of Endangerment|Hanbe]] [[I Have Your Wife|can]].}}
* [[Battle Aura]]: All the time. Takeda even disintegrates an opponent in a giant wave of [[Battle Aura]].
* [[Battle in
* [[Beam-O-War]]: Happens '''a lot'''. Particularly between Masamune and Yukimura.
* [[Big No]]: Episode 9, courtesy of Kasuga.
Line 327:
** Also, no matter how hard it seems, it is possible for normal people to [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fT4EDPSCZYU&feature=related do it!]
** "The Party Must Go On" from the movie finishes the series really well.
* [[A Day in
* [[Deadly Closing Credits]]: Episodes 5 and 11.
* [[Death Is Cheap]]: It certanly is for {{spoiler|Oichi, Yoshihiro, Mitsuhide and Hisahide}}.
Line 341:
* [[Empathic Environment]]
* [[Enemy Mine]]: Kenshin, Shingen and a reluctant Masamune form a temporary alliance against [[Big Bad]] Nobunaga. The theory is that with him out of the way, they can be free to fight amongst themselves.
* [[Evil Old Folks]]: Hojo Ujimasa is turned into a weak, [[Don Quixote
* [[Eye Scream]]: In Episode 12, when Nobunaga has Masamune cornered, he torments the poor boy by threatening to gouge out his other eyeball ''with his [[Squick|finger]]''.
* [[Executive Meddling]]: The anime's second season is designed to bring the anime story into line with the game's [[Canon]], leading to {{spoiler|almost half the cast coming back to life for no adequately explained reason}}.
Line 395:
* [[Necromancer]]: Ujimasa Hojo use his pike to summon the spirits of his ancestors to fight Shingen. He simply [[Curb Stomp Battle|make him join them.]]

** {{spoiler|Subverted quite painfully with the second episode of the second season being [[Exactly What It Says
* [[No-Holds-Barred Beatdown]]: Hideyoshi delivers several of these in the second season.
* [[No One Could Survive That]]: Notice that the smoking black crater where {{spoiler|Honda}} used to be is suspiciously lacking a dead body at its center...

*** The movie has {{spoiler|Tenkai}} appear as well.
* [[Ominous Latin Chanting]]: German actually, but fits the bill.
* [[One-Hit Kill]]: Shingen [[Curb Stomp Battle|curb-stomping]] Ujimasa Hojo in Episode 2 with his [[Incendiary Exponent|flaming fist]] [[Kill It
* [[One-Scene Wonder]]: Kennyo, Yoshihiro, Xavi, and Itsuki in season 1. The first three while they're slain by Nobunaga's men. {{spoiler|Yoshihiro is back on his feet in season 2}}.
* [[Post Dramatic Stress Disorder]]: Masamune is miles away from the battlefield before anyone even ''realizes'' that {{spoiler|he was shot in the side after the fight with Nagamasa}}.
Line 438:
* [[War Is Hell]]: Sure the individual duels may be glorious, but the ongoing war and chaos is always presented as a bloody and terrifying waste of human life that brings sorrow to all involved.
* [[What Do You Mean It's Not Awesome?]]: Every single fight scene.
* [[What Happened to
* [[What Were You Thinking?]]: What Shingen asks Yukimura after learning that {{spoiler|Yukimura let Kojuro (who, along with Masamune, was under their care) confront Hisahide alone and with only half of the demanded ransom}}. [[Dope Slap|He did not like the answer he got]].
* [[Why We Can't Have Nice Things]]: Shingen and Yukimura regularly smash holes through the doors and walls of their mansion. In the movie, they go so far as to demolish and entire building, much to the surprise of the men inside it.
