In General

Taimanin

Main Members. From left to right: Murasaki Yatsu, Yukikaze Mizuki, Sakura Igawa, Asagi Igawa, and Rinko Akiyama.

Taimanin or "Anti-Demon Ninjas". A group of super powered ninjas tasked with dealing with the corruptions created by demons and "evil influenced" people. Each taimanin seems to have their own unique superhuman ability (e.g. Asagi's Super Speed, Sakura's ability to travel through shadows, Yukikaze's ability to generate lighting, and etc.). Most taimanin live in the fictional village of Gokuruma, which doubles as their base of operation. Younger taimanin are trained at Gosha Academy. Usually taimanin are often paired in teams of two when going on missions, sometimes three or more depending on the difficult of the mission. However, more experienced veteran Taimanin have been known to go on solo missions.

  • Action Girl: Many of the female Taimanins, although they tend to zigzag between this and Faux Action Girls. Played straight in Taimanin RPGX and Action.
  • Airplane Arms: The opening of Taimanin Asagi Zero shows that Taimanin tend do this when they run, like most other anime ninjas.
  • Amazon Brigade: Subverted. While most of the Taimanin featured are female, there are several male members within their ranks, notable examples include Kurou Yatsu, Tatsurou Akiyama, and Fuuma Kotarou.
  • Angst? What Angst?: Being able to invoke this trope seems to be a job requirement. It's also one of the only explanations for why every Taimanin who has gotten tortured/raped, ESPECIALLY Asagi, hasn't gone completely insane. This can be subverted in the series's many Downer Ending routes, but those are all non-canon to the main story, and are more like What If scenarios.
  • Badass Crew: They are a group of super powered, Demon Slaying ninjas.
  • Badass Family: The occupation is a family business. Examples include the Igawa sisters (Asagi and Sakura) and the Yatsu siblings(Murasaki, Kurou, and Aiko). Also, the Mizuki, Akiyama, and Kokawa families have apparently been Taimanins for generations, and all the Fuuma Clan members appearing in the series are also Taimanins (though previously they were pretty much neutral). The Fridge Brilliance in this is that most taimanins acquire their abilities genetically, as its implied that all taimanins have some form of demon lineage.
  • Badass in Distress: Tends to be a requiring theme throughout the visual novels.
  • Bowdlerise: In Action Taimanin since it is the franchise's first non-Hentai game. Action alters many of character designs by removing the nipple bugles and camel toe that comes with wearing Form-Fitting Wardrobe. The IOS version of Action takes it a step further and adds additional coverings to their suits.
  • Cartwright Curse: While dating a sexy demon slaying ninja sound awesome on paper, many of the boyfriends of a female Taimanin tends to end up being a Cosmic Plaything in this series, just ask Kyousuke and Tatsurou. Averted with Kotarou, but he's a notable exception being an actually capable ninja in the story.
  • Color-Coded Characters: Each has their own uniquely colored uniform.
  • Conveniently an Orphan: Most Taimanin tend to be this with Yukikaze and Kurenai being the few aversions.
  • Combat Stilettos: All female taimanin wear them, because Rule of Sexy.
  • Demon Slaying: Their main job, hence the name "Anti-Demon Ninjas".
  • The Dreaded: Taimanin Murasaki states that demons fear them.
    • Into the bargain, ZERO mentions they are “objects of unparalleled hatred and fear.”
  • Dub Name Change: They are known as “Duimoren” in the Chinese translations.
  • Dude Magnet: Many of the female Taimanins fit this description, but in a Crapsack World filled with depraved rapists, this isn't a good thing.
  • Elemental Powers: Several Taimanin possess ninja arts that give then their own "attribute". Going over some examples:
  • Faux Action Girl: Zigzagged between being genuine Action Girls and this. They are usually portrayed as Action Girls during the standard Action Prologue in each installment. Since this series is a Hentai, they would spend most of the story being captured and sexually tortured by whoever is acting as the Big Bad at time. However, in most cases, the second they are free from whatever was keeping them subjugated to the villains... let's just say it does not end well for the bad guys.
    • The mobile/browser game Taimanin RPGX and Action mostly avert this, as they shows what and how Taimanins are actually doing in their line of work without getting trapped in the classical Hentai story premises.
  • Flash Step: All Taimanin seems to posses this ability.
  • Fighter, Mage, Thief: The main trio in Taimanin Yukikaze seems to fit this. Rinko is the Fighter being the Master Swordsman of the trio, whose fighting style is best equip to take on opponents at close range. Yukikaze is the Mage since she uses Handgun that shoot out lightning bullets. Out of the three, Yukikaze possesses the most destructive power. Tatsurou is the Thief since his wind abilities is best suited for stealth and support, but has the least offensive abilities.
  • Form-Fitting Wardrobe: Tends to be the standard uniform for most Taimanins.
  • Half-Human Hybrid: Downplayed. The majority of the Taimanin are humans, but they do have some form of demon lineage. Meaning the nearly all of the Taimanin are "part-demon" even if the percentage is relatively small.
  • Heroic Lineage: Zigzagged with In the Blood. In TA2, its revealed that nearly all Taimanin are actually descendants of demons that have mated with humans, granted the exact circumstances of how this occurred has not been fully explored. This used to explain their supernatural powers, despite the fact that a majority of them are mostly human. However, the families that were created as the result of the union between humans and demons went on to form ninja clans that protect the innocent from monstrous demons and evil humans.
  • Highly-Visible Ninjas: Seeing as how brightly colored their uniforms are. There is also the fact that their outfits are more likely to draw attention.
  • Idiot Ball: Remember this is a Hentai, so naturally your favorite heroes are going to get hit with this hard, and repeatedly.
  • Instant Awesome: Just Add Ninja
  • Lovely Angels: Many of their two person teams tend to form this.
  • Lust Object: Comes with the territories of being heroes in a Hentai. Apparently, a captured female Taimanin is worth a small fortune in the criminal underworld and demon society.
  • Ms. Fanservice: Well this is a Hentai, so most of the female Taimanins fit this description.
  • Ninjas: A near-future Cyberpunk variation.
  • Ninja Brat: Many of the younger Taimanin like Sakura and Yukikaze fit this description.
  • Ninja Pirate Zombie Robot: Superhero, Demon Slaying Cyberpunk ninjas with demon ancestry. Individual members like Kurenai (half-vampire) and Asuka (cyborg) take it a step further.
  • Power Trio: Many of the taimanins form this. In the main games, we have Asagi, Sakura, and Murasaki. In the Taimanin Yukikaze Spin-Off series, we have Yukikaze, Rinko, and Tatsurou.
  • Reforged Into a Minion: While most bad endings would result in a Taimanin become a Sex Slave to the Big Bad of their game, there are a few instances where the Taimanin would also double as an enforcer for the villain. Mizuki Shiranui and Karin Sugita are canon examples of this.
  • Roof Hopping
  • Sexy Backless Outfit: Many of the Taimanin's uniforms have their backs complete exposed. Not only is this done because of Rule of Sexy, it makes the outfits more practical to taking them on and off.
  • Sleeves Are for Wimps: With a few exceptions like Rinko and some of the males, most Taimanin wear sleeveless uniforms, both as a showing of strength and because Rule of Sexy.
  • So Beautiful It's a Curse: Once again this is a rather dark Hentai, so naturally many of the female Taimanins suffer because of this.
  • Spy Catsuit: The standard uniform.
  • Stripperiffic: Many of the Taimanin tend to wear rather revealing outfits, as one would expect from a hentai.
  • Super-Powered Evil Side: According to Clone Oboro, all taimanins have the potential of acquiring this, due to their demon linage. So far, only Asagi and Kurenai has been able to obtain this. However, Taimanin Asagi Battle Arena does show what many of the Taimanins (including Sakura and Murasaki) would look like if they ever attain this power.
  • Superpowerful Genetics: Taimanin's have various abilities (Asagi can move at light speed, Sakura can travel through shadows, etc). Its actually implied by Oboro that most, if not all, Taimanins have some form of demon lineage, which would explain their supernatural abilities.
  • Vapor Wear: If it wasn't already obvious from the characters' profile images, most Taimanin don't wear anything under their uniform.

Asagi Igawa

Asagi Igawa full body

This story's main character. The game operates along her point of view. She is one person of the Anti-Demon Ninja. She is a female ninja of justice going against the demon people's heretical doctrine. She lost both of her parents early and now only has her sister. Ingenious at the martial art of fencing, she has speedily excelled her training, and is recognized from her achievements thus far as the strongest of those repelling the demon influence. Her childhood friend, and her love, Kyousuke Sawaki, kept her father company as a pupil of his until he passed away. Above anything else, all female ninjas, like Asagi, walk among the scenes of carnage, and as such, believes that her duties always take priority, thus regards and acknowledges lovemaking as strictly taboo, and as such, Asagi is forced, much too often, to cast away Kyousuke's love.

Ninja Arts: Sword Battle Petal A kind of branching technique. It is able to kill several opponents all at once, sending it out in an arc to hundreds of bodies at its greatest efficiency. Furthermore, its scope reaches one's field of vision, being able to send out in an instant anywhere a delivery, sort of like an aircraft fighter locking on a target. This battle system of ninjitsu is at its strongest when its used in close quarters.

  • Absurdly Youthful Mother: In Taimanin Asagi 3. She is the adoptive mother of the teenaged Kosuke and Asuka.
  • The Ace: Often regarded as the "Strongest Taimanin" (or "Almighty Taimanin" for the official English translation in Action Taimanin).
  • Adaptational Jerkass: In ZERO's timeline, Asagi is an Insufferable Genius that look down on other Taimanin and strives to go solo for that reason. However, she does have a heart, see Jerk with a Heart of Gold below.
  • Alternate Self: In ZERO, where it revealed that their is actual two Asagi in that timeline, the young teenage rebel and Vampire Asagi from TA3 alternate bad ending.
  • Babies Ever After: A dark variation as Asagi gives birth to an orc child in one of the non-canon bad endings of TA3. She was shown to be heavily pregnant in episode 2 of the TA3 anime.
  • Badass: When not otherwise rendered unable to fight, she's pretty badass.
    • Badass in Distress: Comes with the territory of being the main protagonist in a hentai series centered around hardcore rape.
  • Badass Boast: Her less modest ZERO counterpart can dish these out at times, especiall in the visual novel’s good ending. She also gives one to Kotarou Fuuma in Battle Arena.
    • Asagi: “It seems you know who I am, yet you dare to turn your blade against me? You think you'll be able to get away from this with just a bruise and a scratch?”
  • Balloon Belly: This happens to her a few time in the visual novels and OVA series due to cum inflation.
  • Battle in the Center of the Mind: Let's just say that Asagi and her inner demon Kage don't often see eye to eye.
  • Betty and Veronica: Kousuke and Edwin Black, respectively, to her "Archie".
  • BFS: Gets a cool collapsible one to go along with her new Taimanin suit, neither last long unfortunately.
  • Bigger Bad: During The Reveal in TA0, where it turns out Vampire Asagi is this along with Edwin Black. The big reveal is that ZERO's timeline is actually a continuation of TA3 ending where Asagi become Edwin Black's vampire mate, and the two fused together to recreated the universe. Now Vampire Asagi want to regain a body of her own and plan to use her Alternate Self as a vessel.
  • Big Good: She acts as this in the RPGX storyline, being the academy's principal and Taimanin leader who assigns the protagonist on various missions.
  • Big Damn Hero: In Taimanin Yukikaze’s good ending, she saves both Yukikaze and Rinko before they were force to be Sex Slaves at Under Eden.
  • Big Sister Instinct: She is very protective of Sakura and would willingly suffer any form of torture if it would protect her sister. In the visual novel of TA2, Asagi's Super-Powered Evil Side was triggered when she thought Saya killed Sakura.
  • Boobs of Steel: She holds the title of the "Strongest Taimanin" has a bust size of 88-90 cm.
  • Breast Expansion: Happens to Asagi in the first game, is retained in the second onwards, even being a minor plot point in the second game.
  • Butt Monkey: Has an entire franchise focused on torturing her, her family, her friend, and students. Life isn't exactly good to her.
    • Throw the Dog a Bone: For all the misfortunes she has to endure, Asagi at least gets the last laugh on her enemies in general.
  • Cool Big Sis: Sakura considers her to be this.
  • Dark Mistress: To Edwin Black in any of the bad endings where she becomes his vampiric mate.
  • Deadpan Snarker: At times.
    • ??? (after being hit by a kunai): Y, you made me bleed...... Y, you’ll regret that!
    • Asagi: What, did Papa never slap that mouth?
  • Determinator: Possibly her most defining feature, in terms of personality.
  • Dirty Harriet: In Taimanin Asagi 2, she and Sakura disguise themselves as prostitutes while investigating Tokyo Kingdom.
  • The Dreaded: According to Taimanin Yukikaze, her name alone is said to cause “the servants of darkness to shudder”. 
  • Dub Name Change: Her name is “Ashaj” in the Chinese translations.
  • Even the Girls Want Her: Characters from both genders are shown to be attracted to her, for example, Murasaki has a huge crush on her. However, this isn't necessarily a good thing, considering many have the female villains want to have their way with her.
  • Evil Costume Switch: Two. One happens when her Super-Powered Demonic Side takes over, which has a darker take on her usual kunoichi attire, and the other occurs courtesy of Edwin Black in one of the endings to the third game, in which Asagi gets turned into a vampire.
  • Expy: As a whole, Asagi is considered the Hentai version of Taki and Hibana.
  • Foolish Sibling, Responsible Sibling: The "Responsible Sibling" to Sakura's "Foolish Sibling".
  • Faux Action Girl: Is often shown losing a majority of her fights, but to be fair, her defeats are often caused by a case of Worf Had the Flu. Averted in RPGX and Action.
  • Fusion Dance: In TA3's bad ending and its continuation in TA0, its revealed that Asagi and Edwin Black fused together and are sharing one body. The two can still interact with each other in metaphysical sense, and the body will take the form of whoever is in control at the time. Although Vampire Asagi's goal is to reclaim a body of her own, and plan to take possession of her Alternate Self in TA0 to do so.
  • Girly Bruiser: Asagi is more feminine than her sister and is often regarded as the “Strongest Taimanin.”
  • Green Eyes
  • Heir to the Dojo
  • Hidden Villain: Vampire Asagi in ZERO's alternate timeline, who has been secretly masterminding everything with Edwin Black, and desires to takes over her the body of her Alternate Self.
  • Human Mom, NonHuman Dad: Has been the "human mom" in several non-canon endings to different demon children. Her most notable non-canon child is her orc son, Big.
  • I Just Want to Be Normal: In the first game. All she ever wanted was to settle down with her childhood friend and put her Taimanin days behind her. Unfortunately, her past caught up to her, and she decided to stay as a Taimanin ever since.
  • Instant Birth, Just Add Water: In one of TA3's bad endings, a pregnant Asagi gives birth to her orc son just mere minutes after her water breaks.
  • Insufferable Genius: In ZERO's timeline, Asagi is still a prodigy among other Taimanin, but this version of her let her talents go to her head.
  • Japanese Delinquents: In ZERO, where the younger, teenage Asagi broke off from the Taimanin working for the government to start her own gang. Funny enough, Asagi forces her followers to be actual good student at their high school, but still acts rebellious toward most authority figures.
  • Jail Bait Wait: Waited until Kousuke was of age (about roughly 9 years) before starting an intimate relationship with him. Granted, she probably didn't consider having a relationship with Kousuke until he was close to the age of consent.
  • Jerk with a Heart of Gold: As insolent as she is in ZERO, Asagi at least dearly loves Sakura and is friendly toward Murasaki.
  • The Leaderess: Became the official leaderess of Taimanin organization sometime before the events of Taimanin Yukikaze.
  • Lightning Bruiser: Asagi's power allows her to move at the speed of light.
  • Lovely Angels: Forms this with Sakura during the first two games.
  • Magical Girlfriend: For her completely normal boyfriend, Kyousuke. Slightly subverted with Kousuke since, unlike his brother, Kousuke does possess some form of supernatural abilities.
  • The Mentor: Being a teacher at Goshu Academy and later the leader of the Taimanins, Asagi had a large part in training many of the younger Taimanins. Some of her students include her sister Sakura, Murasaki, Yukikaze, Rinko, Tatsuro, and her prodigy and adopted daughter, Asuka.
  • A Mother to Her Men
  • Ms. Robinson: In TA3, after she began to have a relationship with the teenaged Kousuke, the younger brother of her late boyfriend. Keep in mind that Asagi would be in her early 30s at this time.
  • Pay Evil Unto Evil:
    • When gathering info concerning the Chaos Arena in TA1, Asagi broke several antiques that belonged to an orc named Pig. She also used her blade’s ridge to strike him (though the first time she did it was out of self-defense), threatened to slay him, and shook the orc around several times. While this was certainly harsh, Pig also deserved it because orcs love to rape women as well as obsessed with it preoccupied with it to boot. Deconstructed as this apparently made the orc desire revenge.
    • In ZERO, Asagi gives Byg a brutal beatdown and even ruins one of his testicles. Cruel? Yes. That being said, Byg had it coming as he and his gang raped numerous women until they died. Not to mention that he attempted to have Asagi’s limbs cut off and raped her like crazy. This is also deconstructed example as this resulted in Byg seeking revenge on her later in the visual novel.
    • In ZERO’s good ending, Asagi breaks the aforementioned Byg’s nose. Into the bargain, she devastated his other testicle. However, he deserved it as the orc had Asagi ravished constantly and forcibly inseminated with an orc tot. (As a side note, she did not even know the identity of its father.) Also deconstructed as the narrator states, “Even if [she] killed [him] thousands of times, [she] wouldn’t be satisfied...”
  • Promotion to Parent: After Kyousuke's death she adopts his younger brother Kosuke and Asuka. Before that, she also raised Sakura after they were orphaned.
  • The Protagonist: For most of the franchise, particularly the main games.
  • Purple Is Powerful: Stated to be the most powerful Taimanin in-series, and her uniform is purple.
  • Red Baron: The "Strongest Taimanin" or the "Almighty Taimanin".
  • Red Oni, Blue Oni: The Blue Oni to Sakura's Red Oni.
  • Retirony: At the beginning of the first game, Asagi was planning to marry Kyousuke and leave the demon-hunting business...let's just say it didn't work out, and Asagi’s retirement was not permanent.
  • Screaming Birth: In one of TA3's bad endings when giving birth to her orc son, Big. Justified, as the Corrupted Sakura and Murasaki wanted to make the experience as painful to Asagi as possible and even forced her to give birth while standing up.
  • Settle for Sibling: Began to form a relationship with Kousuke, Kyousuke's younger brother, in TA3, almost ten years after Kyousuke's death.
  • Sex Slave: Was forced to be this on a couple of occasions.
  • Sibling Team: With Sakura.
  • Speed Blitz: Her unique ninja ability is basically this.
  • Spy Catsuit: Her signature outfit. Usually wears a purple one, but few occasions, she is also seen wearing a white one.
  • Tomboy and Girly Girl: She's definitely the more feminine of the two as opposed to her sister, being much more demure and ladylike.
  • Ugly Guy, Hot Wife: In the anime and one of TA3's non-canon bad endings, she ends up marrying the orc Dogle.
  • Unholy Matrimony:
    • In TA3 and TA0’s bad endings, Asagi can form one with Edwin Black in which she takes him up on his offer to rule the world together and becomes his mate.
    • In an alternate bad ending in TA3 and in the animated OVA (which also overlaps with Rape Is Love), the mind broken Asagi could end up forming one with the orc Dogle.
  • Victim Falls For Rapist:
    • In some of TA2’s bad endings, a mind-broken Asagi ends up viewing Oboro as her mistress and allows herself to be raped by demons as a means to please her.
    • In one of TA3's bad endings (which overlaps with Rape Is Love at that), Asagi ends up marrying, Dogle, an orc that also raped and impregnated her with his child.
  • Wife Husbandry: A gender-swap variation from the usual examples. Asagi is Kousuke's legal guardian after his brother's death, and has raised the boy for the past 9 years. Seeing as Kousuke would be in his mid-to-late teens in TA3, it's safe to say that Asagi has raised him since childhood, doesn't stop them from forming a relationship.
  • Worf Had the Flu: In her first fight in the arena, Asagi was in no condition to fight, so she was beaten. Even Sakura is surprised at her poor performance and some viewers believe she lost on purpose.
  • Younger and Hipper: In ZERO, where her age is changed from being a woman in her twenty to thirties in the main series, to being aged back down to a teenager.


Sakura Igawa

Sakura Igawa Full Body

A heroine and Asagi's younger sister. A beautiful girl with a winning, vigorous attitude and known for being brave and gallant. Much like Asagi, she's endowed with the strong ability of a ninja, yet her strength is still much at an apprentice level. She wants to use her strength for the benefit of justice, aspiring to become an Anti-Demon Ninja member, opposing evil with Asagi. Originally, she keeps her pursuit of knowledge and training hidden from her older sister until after the advents of TA1. Despite her sister's initial objections, Sakura was able to make a name for herself as an exemplary Taimanin and became Asagi's partner for many of their missions. When she isn't going on missions with her sister, she would usually be partnered up with her best friend Murasaki, who has a love-hate relationship with Sakura. While working as a duo, Sakura and Murasaki are given the nickname "Sakumara" by other Taimanin.

Sakura's main weapons are duel-wielding ninja daggers. Her ninja art is referred to as "Shadow Art", which gives Sakura the supernatural ability to meld into shadows or teleport between them. Although her strongest power is to give her shadows physical forms, and shape them into blades or dangerous shadow creatures like sharks and bears.

  • Adorkable: She can be quite the goofball at times.
  • Ambiguously Bi: She been shown to be attracted to guys, but has her Les Yay moments with Murasaki.
  • Babies Ever After: In one of the bad endings of TA0, where she ends up pregnant with an orc child.
  • Beware the Silly Ones: She tends to be rather childish and goofy outside of battle, but she is still a force to be reckoned with. In TA0, she was able to preform a very terrifying Mook Horror Show.
  • Bad Powers, Good People: Sakura's ninja art allows her to control shadows. She can hide herself in them, give them physical form to turn them into bladed, or create terrifying shadow monsters that can rip her opponent to shreds. Despite having an ability that is best suited for an evil demon, Sakura is actually one of the nicest people among the Taimanin.
  • Boobs of Steel: As the series progress, she eventually becomes one of the Taimanin's best combatants and by TA3 her bust sizes measures out to 93 cm, which is larger than her sister's, who has a measurement of 90 cm at that point.
  • Brainwashed and Crazy: In Taimanin Asagi 3, Sakura and Murasaki are killed by enemy soldiers and then absorbed by Edwin Black. They are later brought back to life as demonic futanari with few, if any, memories of Asagi, and under Black's instructions to gleefully torture, rape, and kill their own students, and attempt to do the same to Asagi. In one of the endings, they even keep her as a sex slave.
  • Breast Expansion: Thanks to Oboro, Sakura suffers this in the OVA series in which her breasts were enlarged to gigantic proportions. In TA3, as a Mythology Gag, her breasts inflated to the same portions they were in the OVA for one of her H-scenes.
  • Casting a Shadow: Her ninja ability. Her main ability is to travel between shadows and create shadow creatures and blades.
  • Cat Smile: Most likely given to her to highlight her youthful personality.
  • Comically Missing the Point: At one point in Taimanin Murasaki, Sakura thought Murasaki was angry because she was on her period.
  • Cool Big Sis: Acts like this toward Kousuke.
  • Defiled Forever: Secretly feels this was about herself after losing her virginity to an orc in TA1. Although she seems to have gotten over it in latter installments.
    • She doesn't fair much better in ZERO's timeline, when she losses her virginity to Snake Lady, which prove to be just as traumatizing to her, if not more so.
  • Demoted to Extra: Goes from being the Deuteragonist to a regular supporting character in Taimanin Asagi 3.Asuka ends up filling the role of the deuteragonist during that game. She returns to her deuteragonist in TA0.
  • Dimensional Traveler: The "Sakura" that is playable in Action Taimanin is actually from an Alternate Timeline (implied to be ZERO's timeline) that ended up stranded in Action's dimension, which explains her younger appearance in comparison to the other Taimanin like Asagi and Murasaki.
  • Dirty Harriet: In Taimanin Asagi 2, she disguised herself as a prostitute while investigating Tokyo Kingdom along with her sister.
  • Deuteragonist: In Taimanin Asagi 1, 2, and 0.
  • Even the Girls Want Her: Has her Ship Tease moments with Murasaki. However, like her sister, the darker variation of this is that she has been raped by other women (namely Oboro, Saya, and Snake Lady) as a result.
  • Everythings Even Worse With Sharks: In TA0, one of the shadow creatures she is able to create are sharks and the way they deal with her opponents is both gore and terrifying.
  • Evil Aunt: In one of TA3 non-canon route, Corrupted Sakura is this to her adoptive nephew, Kousuke, as she threatens to kill him unless Asagi follows her orders. In one of the non-canon bad endings, Corrupted Sakura also become this to Big, her biological nephew and Asagi's orc son.
  • Foil: To Asagi. While Asagi is normally serious, stern, and responsible, Sakura is energetic, silly, and carefree. Asagi is a veteran Taimanin, while Sakura is relatively new at being a Taimanin during the earlier parts of the series.
  • Foolish Sibling, Responsible Sibling: The "Foolish Sibling" to Asagi's "Responsible Sibling.”
  • Fun Personified: A happy, fun-loving, energetic young woman that tries her best to keep a positive attitude in a world that trying its absolute darnedest to break her.
  • Gamer Girl: Its shown in Action Taimanin that Sakura like to play video games in her free time when she isn't watching anime instead.
  • Genki Girl: Sakura is probably one of the most energetic characters in the whole series.
  • Katanas Are Just Better: Her preferred weapon, just like her sister.
  • Leotard of Power: Part of her pre-Taimanin Asagi 3 ninja outfit.
  • Living Shadow: Sakura's ninja art allows to become this when she melds into a shadow. There are also her shadow beasts that she can summon when using her powers.
  • Lovely Angels: Forms this with Asagi during the first two game. She later partners up with Murasaki in later installments.
  • Male Gaze:In the third anime when Sakura begins to be tortured, we can get a good view of her bare butt wiggling from side to side.
  • Modesty Shorts: Part of her civilian outfit in TA0. This might come off as a bit odd for character in a Hentai.
  • Mook Horror Show: Rather surprising when one of the friendliest and goofiest Taimanin was able to pull this off in the opening of TA0 when she attacked a bunch of corrupt police officers with a swarm of her shadow sharks. The aftermath was not pretty.
  • Mythology Gag: Originally, her Breast Expansion occurred exclusively in OVA series. However, in TA3 her breasts are inflated again to the same gigantic portions they were in the OVA, but only for a single H-scene.
  • Otaku: Love to spend her free time watching anime, sentai shows, and play video games.
  • Red Oni, Blue Oni: The Red Oni to Asagi's, and later Murasaki's, Blue Oni.
  • Reforged Into a Minion: In Asagi's non-canon route in TA3 and in the OVA (see Brainwashed and Crazy).
  • Sad Clown: Implied. Sakura would act like an optimistic Genki Girl, despite knowing fully well what kind of world she lives in. There are a few times during her moments of weakness where she admits she is traumatized by all the terrible things that has happen to her, and views herself as being Defiled Forever. But she puts on a brave face so not to worry her loved ones.
  • School Idol: Being Asagi's sister certainly helps, although many of the students at Goshu academy seems to like her more since Sakura is much more approachable than Asagi.
  • Sex Slave: Like her sister, Sakura was forced to be this on more than one occasion.
  • She Is All Grown Up: Her body is noticeable a lot more developed in Taimanin Asagi 3.
  • Sibling Team: Forms this with Asagi.
  • Sidekick: For Asagi until Taimanin Asagi 3.
  • Skilled but Naive: During the first couple of games. For a while, she didn't even know what unique ninja ability she possessed until later in the series.
  • Sore Loser: Sakura did not taking losing to Murasaki well in Taimanin Murasaki.
  • Spy Catsuit: A brownish-gray one with yellow highlights.
  • Taking the Bullet: In Taimanin Asagi 2, Sakura does this to protect Asagi from Saya's attack. In the canon ending, this act is what fueled Asagi to use her inner demon, Kage, to defeat Saya. Although injured, she does survive this.
  • Tan Lines: She has a slight sun tan in TA3, which is made much more noticeable when she is nude or wearing anything skimpier than her Taimanin outfit.
  • Tomboy and Girly Girl: The Tomboy to Asagi's Girly Girl.
  • Tomboy with a Girly Streak: Sakura is more masculine than her sister and one of her cards in Battle Arena is called “[Tomboy] Sakura Igawa.” On the other hand, her costume she wore when participating in the Chaos Arena in TA0 has some pink. In one intimacy event in Action Taimanin reveals that Sakura also loves to go shopping.
  • Took a Level In Badass: Sakura becomes a combat instructor for Goshu Academy by the time of the third game.
  • Trapped in Another World: The playable version of Sakura in Action Taimanin, who is from another dimension but ended stuck in Action's timeline. However, being a Genki Girl, this version of Sakura learned to adjust to her new surrounding and doesn't seem too bothered by this. It does help that the alternate versions of her loved ones actually treats this Sakura like she is family.
  • Villainous Incest: Corrupted Sakura from TA3 is perfectly fine with raping her sister, granted she was brainwashed to forget that she and Asagi are sisters. However, she did not care when Asagi told her this.
  • Vitriolic Best Buds: With Murasaki.
  • Woman Child: She can be childish for her age (late-teens in TA1 and TA2, mid-20s in TA3).
  • Would Hurt a Child: Or at least when corrupted. See Evil Aunt above.

Murasaki Yatsu

Murasaki Yatsu Full Body

Murasaki Yatsu starts out as a up and coming Taimanin in training at Goshu academy and Kuroi Yatsu's younger sister. Despite her youth and inexperience, many veteran taimanin, including Asagi, see great potential in Murasaki. Of course due to her beauty and skills she becomes the idol of Goshu academy, also developing a rivalry/friendship(much to her dismay)with Sakura. Similarly to her brother Kurou, Murasaki's ninja ability grants her a vast Healing Factor which allows her to regrow entire limbs and Super Strength.

Murasaki power basically grants her immortality unless her head and heart are destroyed.

  • The Ace: She is considered the second strongest Taimanin after Asagi.
  • Adaptational Badass: In Action Taimanin, Murasaki Special Attack involves barraging her opponent with Combat Tentacles sprouted from back, an attack that Murasaki can't preform on her own in the visual novel. Murasaki can perform this attack in the H-games, but only after she has done a Fusion Dance with Kiryuu.
  • Affectionate Nickname: Sakura often refers to her as "Mu-chan". Murasaki is less than amused with the nickname.
  • And I Must Scream: In the non-canon "fallen heroes" bad ending of TA3, when Oboro alter her body to resemble a cube, leaving most of Murasaki's body immobile. Made it easier for Oboro to auction her off to be treated as a living object by her buyers.
  • An Arm and a Leg: Loses both her arms during a fight with Kiryuu at the beginning of her game.... she got better.
    • In Zero she had her legs sliced off by Edwin Black, but like was able recover.
  • An Axe to Grind: Her signature weapon.

  • Brainwashed and Crazy: In Taimanin Asagi 3, Sakura and Murasaki are killed by enemy soldiers and then absorbed by Edwin Black. They are later brought back to life as demonic futanari with few, if any, memories of Asagi, and under Black's instructions gleefully torture, rape, and kill their own students, and attempt to do the same to Asagi. In one of the endings, they even keep her as a sex slave.
  • Body Horror: In the "fallen heroes" bad ending of TA3, when Oboro turned most of her body, except her head, into a cube.

  • Cool Mask: A pink one with a butterfly design as part of her alternate outfit in both Battle Arena.

  • Disproportionate Retribution: When she transformed into a minion, she wanted to execute Asagi for being disrespectful.
  • Demoted to Extra: Goes from being the main protagonist in her own spin-off game, to become the Deuteragonist in the Hell Knight Ingrid OVA, to being only a supporting character in Taimanin Asagi 3 and TA0.
  • Eating the Eye Candy: Can't help staring at Asagi while they were changing in their swimsuits. In Taimanin Asagi Gaiden, Murasaki notice how Sakura's figure has been developing. In an inner dialog, she commented on how Sakura's figure would eventually be comparable to Asagi's. Hilariously, in TA0 she does not attempt to hide her desires to peak at Asagi, much to Asagi's annoyance.
  • Enemy Mine: During the climax of TM, Kiryuu forces Murasaki to team up with him to fight off Ingrid in exchange for Sakura's safety.
  • Fusion Dance: With Kiryuu during the canon ending of TM when she agreed to Kiryuu's Enemy Mine proposal. By kissing Murasaki, Kiryuu was able to transfer his consciousness into her body, but Murasaki's outward appearance remains the same. In this state, Kiryuu can Power-Up Murasaki's ninja abilities, give her access to his Combat Tentacles, and Spontaneous Weapon Creation abilities. Kiryuu admits that if he tried to do this with another being, the host's cells would quickly degrade, but Murasaki's Healing Factor offsets this weakness.
  • Healing Factor: So long as her head and heart are intact, she can rapidly recover from any injury.
  • Hot Scientist: In Taimanin Asagi 3.
  • Jerkass With a Heart of Gold: Although she can be rather stuck up and is one of the least approachable out of all of Taimanin, she still deeply cares about her fellow Taimanin and will do anything to protect them
  • Meganekko: Wears glasses in her casual outfits.

  • School Idol
  • Sex Slave: Like with most Taimanin, she was forced to be this at one point or another.
  • She Is All Grown Up: Much like Sakura in Taimanin Asagi 3.
  • Spontaneous Weapon Creation: After she and Kiryuu go through a Fusion Dance, Murasaki gains the ability to create her signature axe with the iron stored in her body.
  • Stalker with a Crush: Murasaki really, REALLY loves Asagi. To the point where she has Sakura steal Asagi's bath towels and seeing her naked gives Murasaki heat flashes.
  • Student Council President: In TA0.
  • Super Strength: Arguable the strongest Taimanin in terms of physical strength.
  • Teeth-Clenched Teamwork: Lets just say she is not to happy with the fact that she has to work along side Kiryuu, after he was forced to work for the Taimanins. Ironically, it's because of this she's also been assigned to keep Kiryuu in check, since his Villainous Crush on her makes her the perfect handler.
  • Tsundere: Tends to act like this towards Sakura.
  • Underwear of Power: As you can see for her profile image, her panties can be seen whenever she is wearing her Taimanin outfit, unlike most Taimanins who either wear a formfitting catsuit or a Leotard of Power.
  • Undying Loyalty: To Sakura. Murasaki is willing to suffer all kinds of humiliation if it means protecting her best friend. In a "non-canon" route in TM, even after Murasaki seemly devolves to Kiryuu's mind broken slave, she will snap out of it if he kills Sakura, and then would leave Kiryuu to die at the hands of Ingrid or kill him herself.
  • Vitriolic Best Buds: While she might not act like it most of the time, she does deeply care for Sakura. Not that she will admit it.

Yukikaze Mizuki

Yukikaze full body

Often referred to as the Lightning Taimanin due to her unique ability to generate and manipulate lightning to power her twin handguns, which controls her lightning attacks. This ability was apparently taught to her by her late father. She is a student at Goshu academy, along with her best friend and senior Taimanin, Rinko Akiyama, and boyfriend, Tatsurou Akiyama. She is also the daughter of Taimanin Shiranui Mizuki, who went missing 5 years before the advents of Taimanin Yukikaze.

  • The Ace: A unique Deconstruction in her first game. Yukikaze is regarded as one of the best Taimanin of her generation and was able to make a name for herself very early in her career. Her natural abilities makes her a good combat soldier, but in truth she is actually a poor covert agent due to her inexperience and lack of social skills. However, this ends up being overlooked by people like Asagi, Tatsurou, and even Yukikaze herself, as they just assumed that she would be fine to do undercover work, since she was been successful with everything else thus far. This resulted in Yukikaze letting herself be captured for real by relatively weak villains. Ironically, the only way to save her in TY1 is for Tatsurou to not put her on a pedestal and convince the Igawa sisters to check on her status when they initially assumed that a prodigy like Yukikaze would be fine.
  • A-Cup Angst: Hates it when characters point out her flat chest.
  • Ambiguously Bi: While Yukikaze clearly has feelings for Tatsurou, she does have her Les Yay moments with Rinko. It's worth mentioning that Rinko was Yukikaze's second kiss after Tatsurou, although at the time they were little kids that was just experimenting with the concept of kissing, so they didn't considered it as a "true kiss".
  • Ambiguously Brown: At first glance, however it is revealed that her dark skin is just a sun tan. Interestingly enough, she is able to still keep her tan even after spending a year living in an underground city in TY1 bad ending routes.
  • And I Must Scream: She has her arm and legs blow off and is stuffed in a brief case in the double degrade (non-canon) ending, but it is made clear that she is still alive.
  • An Arm and a Leg: In the double degrade ending in TY1, she has her arm and legs blown off.
  • Babies Ever After: A dark variation as she is pregnant with Yazaki's child in the non-canon Fallen Yukikaze bad ending.
  • Back-to-Back Badasses: Most of the cover art and promotional art feature her doing this with Rinko.
  • Becoming the Mask: While investigating Under Eden, she was originally suppose to pretend to be captured and just act like she was a prostitute. However, things didn't go according to plan, and Yukikaze was forced to become an actual mentally broken Sex Slave in the OVA story-line and Bad Ending routes.
  • Berserk Button: Making fun of her for her small breast size or disrespecting her mother.
  • Childhood Friend Romance: With Tatsurou.
  • Defiled Forever: How she feels about herself after Real takes her virginity in the bad ending routes of TY1. Luckily for her, in the canon route she has able to escape Under Eden while remaining a Technical Virgin.

However, what she didn't realize that the place she was infiltrating specialized in slave prostitution. The place would brand their prostitute with a Slave Brand, forcing them to obey the people there. As a result, she was forced to be an actual prostitute.
  • Expy: Seems to be one for Lily Ramses Futaba from Tentacles and Witches, another one of Lilith-soft games that came out 2 years before Taimanin Yukikaze. Both share similar appearances, including similar outfits, tan skin, Girlish Pigtails, have short stature, and both are Pettanko. Also, both act like Tsundere toward their Love Interest, although Yukikaze is no where near as aggressive as Lily. There is also the fact both Lily and Yukikaze were created by the same artist, Aoi Nagisa.
  • Girlish Pigtails
  • Glass Cannon: Yukikaze has been stated to have quite possibly the most destructive powers of any Taimanin. However, she does seem to be one of the weakest Taimanin when it comes to physical strength, as shown in TY1 and Episode 1 of its OVA where a normal human was able to subdue her relatively easily when she does have her Handguns.
  • Go-Go Enslavement: When she was forced to be a slave prostitute at the brothel, Under Eden, she force to wear their standard uniform, which consist of high-heels shoes, stockings, evening gloves, and a near see-through micro bikini.
  • Guns Akimbo: Fight with twin pistols.
  • Handguns: Wields twin handguns that helps her control her lightning attacks.
  • Inferiority Superiority Complex: Yukikaze tends to act like a confident Little Miss Snarker when she is around most people, however in truth she actually very shy person who secretly very insecure about herself. Its even mentioned that despite her popularity in Goshu Academy, she actually has very few friends in her social circle. Her insecurities are made very apparent in the visual novels that she stars in.
  • I Have Come Too Far: During the Bad Ending routes of her first game, Yukikaze would refuse to abort the mission despite the fact that she and Rinko were clearly tricked and force to be an actual Sex Slave because of this.
  • Kick the Son of a Bitch: In the canon route of TY1, after Asagi and Sakura intimidate Real into releasing Yukikaze and Rinko from their Slave Brands in exchange for his life, Yukikaze decide to blast him with a face full of lightning before the Taimanin make their escape from Under Eden. He survived, but is left severely injured. Considering what Real was going to do Yukikaze and Rinko in the bad ending routes, he certainly deserves it.
  • Leotard of Power: Part of her Taimanin outfit.
  • Little Miss Snarker: She is a young woman of short stature, and one of the most sassy members of the Taimanin.
  • Lovely Angels: With Rinko. From their contrasting personalities and appearances to their Guns vs. Swords dynamic.

  • Momma's Girl: She deeply loves her mother and greatly desires her love and approval. Yukikaze is willing to great to great lengths to find her Missing Mom.
  • Pettanko: She is flat-chested girl in her late-teens. Although she is really insecure about it.
  • Pint-Sized Powerhouse: One of the shortest characters (155cm or about 5'1ft) in the series, but arguable posses the most destructive powers.
  • The Protagonist: Of Taimanin Yukikaze 1 and 2.
  • Red Baron: Even though she just started her career as a Taimanin in her first game, she already built up a reputation for herself as the Lightning Taimanin.
  • Sex Slave: In the bad ending routes for both her games.
  • Shock and Awe: Her ninja ability, which was pass down for generations in her family. On a side note, Yukikaze needed her Handguns to control the lightning, but Tatsurou believes she will be able to master the ability to a point were she wouldn't need them anymore.
  • Rapunzel Hair: They reach down to her knees.
  • Red Oni, Blue Oni: The Red Oni to Rinko's Blue Oni.
  • Reforged Into a Minion: Averted in TY1. Unlike Shiranui and Rinko, Yukikaze act purely as a Sex Slave if she ends up "mind broken" in one of the bad endings.
  • Shana Clone: A short, Pettanko, teenaged girl with Girlish Pigtails that is a Tsundere and the leading male characters "main" Love Interest. Checks on all accounts.
  • Skilled but Naive: While Yukikaze is undoubtedly a powerful Taimanin and can easily destroy legion of demons in a straight up fight, Yukikaze lacks the experience needed when dealing with missions that rely more on deception and undercover work. Tatsurou even states that Yukikaze has some difficulties talking to the other students at Goshu academy that are outside her friend circle. As a result, Zokuto was able to trick Yukikaze into letting herself be captured for real.
  • Tan Lines: They are quite noticeable when she is wearing anything that is more revealing than the Taimanin outfit, or nothing at all.
  • Technical Virgin: In the canon route of TY1 where she only had body modified by Under Eden and was rescued by Asagi and Sakura before she was forced to have sex with Real.
  • Trojan Prisoner: Acted as this along with Rinko in order to be sold at a brothel, Under Eden, in order to investigate her mother's disappearance. Naturally, things don't go according to plan.
  • Tsundere: Occasionally acts like this toward Tatsurou.
  • Ugly Guy, Hot Wife: In the Fallen Yukikaze route of TY1 where she becomes Yazaki's mistress. Yukikaze is a cute, attractive young woman while Yazaki is a middle-aged, overweight Gonk.
  • Unholy Matrimony: In the Fallen Yukikaze route, when she forms one with Yazaki. During this route, Yukikaze falls into despair after seeing her mother's Brainwashed and Crazy state. Afterwards, she agrees to becomes Yazaki's second mistress so she at least be able to stay with Shiranui at all times. By the end of this route, Yukikaze has been driven insane to point were she happily escorts Yazaki to Goshu academy to show off her pregnancy and a mangled Rinko to Tatsurou and the other Taimanin.
  • Victim Falls For Rapist: Ends up becoming Yazaki's second mistress in the Fallen Yukikaze ending.
  • Zettai Ryouiki: Grade S.

Rinko Akiyama

Rinko Akiyama

Often referred to as the Slashing Taimanin due to her skills of swordsmanship with her katana, the Ishikiri Kanemitsu, which is apparently a family heirloom. Like many Taimanins, she attends Goshu academy with her best friend, Yukikaze, and younger brother, Tatsurou. Her ninja abilities are referred to as the "void arts". Some of her abilities include being able to increase her senses so she can see long distances, see at impossible angles, and through walls. She can also create portal that teleport her up to a range of 1 km.

  • The Ace: Like Yukikaze, she is a Deconstruction of this in TY1. Rinko is a genuinely good warrior, manage to make a bigger name for herself than Yukikaze very early in her career as a Taimanin, and would present herself as The Reliable One. However, this resulted in her becoming a victim of her own success as most people, including herself, just assumed she would be able to naturally succeed at any assignment that is given to her. Rinko in truth is Skilled but Naive. While she is a good soldier, she lacks the experience and knowledge to be a covert agent, resulting in her being tricked into letting herself be captured for real. Like Yukikaze, she is only saved from her fate when her brother and their allies don't put her on a pedestal, and take the time to actually check up on her when things started to get sketchy.
  • Adaptational Badass: In Action Taimanin. Since the game is a Hack and Slash, it does let Rinko show off more of her combat abilities than in the H-games. However, in the visual novels, its stated that her Space Master powers has a range on 1 km, while in Action Taimanin her Special Attack involves her teleporting a meteor from space.
  • Ambiguously Bi: According to her bio, many of her classmates have Mistaken her for Gay. While she is attracted to Tatsurou, Yukikaze was in fact her first kiss outside of family, granted they only saw it as "child's play" at the time.
  • And I Must Scream: She has her arm and legs blow off and is stuffed in a brief case in the double degrade and Yukikaze degrade (non-canon) endings, but it is made clear that she is still alive.
  • Ancestral Weapon: Her katana, the Ishikiri Kanemitsu, which her has been in the Akiyama family for generations.
  • Apologetic Attacker: In TY's Fallen Rinko route when she defends Yazaki and attacks Tatsurou after becoming Real's willing slave.
  • An Arm and a Leg: In the double degrade and Yukikaze ending in TY1, she has her arm and legs blown off.
  • Balloon Belly: Suffers one when Real subjected her to the "flesh vessel".
  • Berserk Button: While normally calm and composed, making fun of her large breasts is a quick way to making her angry.
  • Big Brother Attraction: Or younger brother attraction in this case. Rinko is actually sexually attracted to her younger brother, Tatsurou, and even wanted to give her virginity to him. This is averted in the OVA series, her desire for her brother was removed due to Adaptation Distillation.
  • Boobs of Steel: She is well known her Gag Boobs in-series along with her fighting prowess. Her current bust size measures out at 87 cm and still growing.
  • Brother-Sister Incest: Although it is mostly one-sided, on Rinko's side. During the advents of Taimanin Yukikaze, Rinko would approach Tatsurou and offered to give her virginity to him before going on her mission to investigate Under Eden. But they don't go through with it when Rinko find out that he has yet to have sex with Yukikaze, and want Yukikaze to be her brother's first. In the sequel, however, player have the option of having Tatsurou agreeing to have sex with Rinko.
  • Buxom Is Better: Has one of the largest busts among the Taimanins, in this series that is saying a lot.
  • Cleavage Window: Has one on her Taimanin outfit, although it's placed slightly lower than most examples.
  • Climax Boss: With Shiranui in the non-canon Fallen Rinko route of TY1. While the big twist in the other bad ending routes is Shiranui's Brainwashed and Crazy state and how the heroes were set up, the big twist in this route is Rinko willing become Real's personal slave and her betrayal.
  • Colony Drop: Her Special Attack in Action Taimanin involves her using her Space Master ability to teleport a meteor from space and then cutting the meteor into piece so that the debris will rain down on her opponents.
  • Cool Big Sis: Is this for Tatsurou, and acts like this toward Yukikaze.
  • Cool Sword: It's apparently a family heirloom.
  • Covert Pervert: While she is one of the more mature and responsible Taimanin, she can be pretty blunt when it comes to her sexuality. She outright order Tatsurou to take her virginity in the first TY, the only reason why they did not go through with it was because Rinko felt that Tatsurou's first time should be done with Yukikaze. That being said, she is also pretty open with the idea that she, Yukikaze, and Tatsurou should form a threesome relationship. Even when they were kids, Rinko was upset at Yukikaze and Tatsurou for "leaving her out" of their first kiss, and had both Tatsurou and Yukikaze kiss her.
  • Curtain Match the Windows: Purple hair, purple eyes.
  • Dark Mistress: To Real in the Fallen Rinko bad ending of TY1.
  • A Day in the Limelight: In the "training dairy" section from the TY visual novel, which can only be unlocked after completing the other sections of the game. In the main story, Rinko and Yukikaze are separate by Real so that he could "train" them separately, with the story following Yukikaze point-of-view. The "training dairy" section details what has been happening to Rinko during the time the two were separated.
    • The second episode of the TY OVA, which is an animated adaption of the visual novel's "training dairy" section, also focuses on Rinko.
  • Defiled Forever: Her impression of herself when Real takes her virginity in the bad ending routes of TY1. Although in the canon route of TY1, she was able to escape Under Eden with her virginity intake.
  • Determinator: Was able to retain her sanity longer than Yukikaze during their time at Under Eden, in the bad ending(s) route. In the anime, takes spending an entire two week on being endlessly raped by a demonic flesh machine until she finally broke down. In visual novel, she retained her sanity in 2 out of the 3 bad endings, and tries to save Tatsurou and Yukikaze from Under Eden despite the magical Slave Brand placed on her. It took a brainwashed Shiranui to subdue her.
  • Dirty Harriet: Initially, although she pretended to be captured to be sold as a prostitute, not necessarily disguise herself as one. However, like Yukikaze, she was forced to be an actual slave prostitute.
  • Expository Hairstyle Change: Surprisingly done quite often in the OVA series, as her hairstyle is changed in each episode. This seems to highlight the changes in her personality. During the first episode, she would wear her hair in a ponytail. Throughout the episode she would act cheerful, wise, optimistic, and acts as a supporting friend to Yukikaze. In the second episode, she let her hair down. During this episode, she is much more stubborn and aggressive, and spends most of the episode trying to resist the sexual torture that she was subjected to her. By the third episode, her hair is changed again to a side plait, and is noticeable much more different than her hair style from the first episode. During this episode, she is now reduced to a quiet and submissive Sex Slave, who is no longer able to comforting her friend and won't even look at her, greatly differing from her personality from the first episode.
  • Expy: Seems to be one for Misao Yukishiro from Misao: Injoku Ninpouden, another Lilith-Soft game that came out before Taimanin Yukikaze.
    • On an interesting note, Misao is actually an Expy of Saeko Busujima from Highschool of the Dead, making Rinko an expy of Saeko by extension.
  • Face-Heel Turn: During the non-canon "Fallen Rinko" ending. During this ending, she become Real's willing slave and even betrays Tatsurou and Yukikaze by fighting off Tatsurou. She averts Face Monster Turn due to the narration claiming that her change in sides is done out of her own free will.
  • Foil: Is one for Yukikaze. While both are Taimanins born from a entire family of demon-hunting ninjas, the two could not be anymore opposite of each other. Yukikaze is short, flat-chested, has an aggressive personality, and fights with guns. While Rinko is tall, large breasted, has a calm and cool personality, and fights with a katana.
  • French Maid Outfit: Wears one in Taimanin Yukikaze 2.
  • Gag Boobs: Hates it when characters make fun of her for her large breasts, as her big bust has gotten her the unflattering nicknames of "Big Boobs Bitch" or "Titty Monster" from several criminals and demons.
  • Go-Go Enslavement: Like Yukikaze, she had to wear the standard uniform of a slave prostitutes of Under Eden.
  • I Have Come Too Far: Like Yukikaze, during TY1 Rinko would refuse to abort her mission because she felt this way.
  • I Want My Beloved to Be Happy: Despite her own sexual desires for her brother, she fully supports his relationship with Yukikaze. Although it's heavily implied that Rinko wants to, or a least won't mind, being in a threesome relationship with them.
  • Laughing Mad: In the OVA series and in one of the visual novel's "training dairy" section. After being endlessly sexual tortured for two weeks straight by Under Eden's "flesh vessel" (see Real's entry for more details), the first thing she does after being released was break down in broken laughter.
  • Lovely Angels: With Yukikaze.
  • Mad Love: To Real in the non-canon Fallen Rinko ending where she develops Stockholm Syndrome. She knows that she is nothing more than a slave to him, but is willing betray her brother and Yukikaze for him.
  • Master Swordsman: Arguable, the best sword fighter the Taimanin have to offer, hence her title the Slashing Taimanin/Demon Cutting. It's worth mentioning that Rinko was stated to just as skilled as her father, who happened to be Asagi's teacher in swordsmanship.
  • Mayfly–December Romance: With Real in the non-canon Fallen Rinko ending.
  • Mistaken for Gay: According to her character bio, Rinko never showed any interest in men when she was at Goshu academy, leading to many of her classmates to spread rumors that she is secretly a lesbian. However, this is not really the case.
  • More Than Mind Control: In the non-canon "Fallen Rinko" route in TY1, Rinko find Happiness in Slavery and develops Stockholm Syndrome for Real. Interestingly enough, the narrator claim Rinko's development into this is done partly out of her own free will, otherwise in all other endings she has the will power to fight against Under Eden at the climax of the game.
  • No Accounting for Taste: One of her attractions in TY1 include her biological brother. In the non-canon "Fallen Rinko" route, she falls in love with Real, an evil Fat Bastard Gonk. We would say the latter is due to brainwashing if the narration didn't make it clear that this attraction developed from More Than Mind Control.
  • Purple Is Power: Like Asagi, she wears a purple Taimanin outfit, and is stated to be one of the stronger Taimanins in the series. She also has purple eyes, and purple hair.
  • Rapunzel Hair: Depending on the Artist her hair length would either just reach down past her knees, or even touching the ground while she is standing. Either way her hair is very long.
  • Red Baron: The Slashing Taimanin (depending on the translation she could be referred to as the Slasher Taimanin, the Oni Slashing Taimanin, or Demon Cutting Taimanin).
  • Red Oni, Blue Oni: The Blue Oni to Yukikaze's Red.
  • Reforged Into a Minion: In the non-canon "Fallen Rinko" route in TY1, where she not only becomes Real's slave, but also his enforcer.
  • The Reliable One: Deconstructed in TY1. Being the Cool Big Sis in her circle of friends, Rinko feels the need to present herself as this. However, this ends up becoming a Fatal Flaw throughout TY1. Rinko determination be a competent Taimanin resulted in her trying to salvage a mission that was clearly a set up, gives false reports to her allies to keep the missing on going, and refuses to admit that she lost control of the situation until its too late. Its not until she is lectured by Igawa sisters (in the good ending route) does Rinko realize her faults in needlessly endangering herself and Yukikaze despite her good intentions.
  • Sex Slave: In the bad ending routes in both Taimanin Yukikaze 1 and 2, and her fate in the OVA series.
  • Skilled but Naive: Between her mature personality and appearance, it's easy to forget that Rinko is still relatively new at being a Taimanin. As a result, Rinko doesn't seem to full grasp how the Crapsack World around her works. Although she is not as naive as Yukikaze, she was still easily tricked by Zokuto into letting herself be captured for real.
  • Space Master: Her main power is her ability to control space within 1 km, with all her other abilities being byproducts of her "void arts". Rinko has mentioned there are limitation on what she can and cannot do.
  • Spy Catsuit: A purple one with a Cleavage Window.
  • Statuesque Stunner: According to her character bio, she is 172 cm tall (or 5'8 feet) and is currently the tallest female Taimanin in the series, but is no less attractive.
  • Stockholm Syndrome: In the non-canon "Fallen Rinko" route in TY1, Rinko falls in love with Real, the man who enslaved, raped, and tormented her, and become "a women who would throw everything away for his sake".
  • Summon to Hand: Using her Space Master abilities, Rinko can summon her sword to her hand, so long it is within a 1 km radius of her location. It just not her weapon either, Rinko can summon any item, so long as she has a rough idea where it is within the radius.
  • Super Senses: One of her ninja abilities allows her to greatly enhance her senses. Her most used ability is magical enhance her eyesight which allows her to see over great distances, and being observe things at outside her line of sight.
  • Suspiciously Similar Substitute: Arguably, she can be considered one for Asagi. Since the TY spin-off series needs to focus on new characters, many believe she was created to be a stand-in for Asagi due to their similar appearance and role. It doesn't help that the TY's Big Bads tend to focus more on her than Yukikaze.
  • Technical Virgin: Like Yukikaze, in the canon route Rinko was able to escape Under Eden before her virginity was taken by Real. Although she did still get her body modified to be more susceptible to sexual situations, which ended up being undone by Kiryuu anyway in TY2.
  • That Man Is Dead: A variation of this. In the non-canon Rinko degraded route "training dairies", the narrator state Rinko's old self has died after she become a willing slave to Real that (somehow) has orgasms out nothing by pure loyalty for him.
  • Thinking Up Portals: One her unique abilities is to create portals that she can use to teleport herself and her companies up a distance of 1 km. However, creating them can be a bit taxing to her, so she only uses them on a few occasions.
  • Trojan Prisoner: Acts as this with Yukikaze in order to investigate the brothel Under Eden. It goes as well as you would expect.
  • True Companions: Took a mission where she knew that she would forced to act as a prostitute, in a attempt to find a lead to the whereabouts of her friend's missing mother, a mission that Asagi greatly opposed to and was even encouraged not to do it, she still did it anyway for Yukikaze. That is some dedication, even if it is a little misplaced.
  • Ugly Guy, Hot Wife: In the Fallen Rinko route where she becomes Real's mistress. She is a sexy, busty ninja while Real, like his older brother Yazaki, is a middle-aged, overweight Gonk.
  • Undying Loyalty: Toward Yukikaze as she willing to endure the humiliation of being a slave of Under Eden if it means helping Yukikaze.
    • This is averted in the non-canon Fallen Rinko ending where she betrays Yukikaze after developing Stockholm Syndrome, become Real's willing slave and her loyalty switches to him. Rinko's final "training dairy" section reveal she can acquire orgasms out of nothing but declaring her pure loyalty toward him.
  • Unholy Matrimony: In the Fallen Rinko route, when she forms one with Real. During this route, after spending months acting as a Sex Slave for Under Eden, Rinko gives into her sexual desire. She develops an obsession with Real's Biggus Dickus and consciously agrees to be his mistress/bitch. During the climax of this route, she betray the Taimanin and subdues Tatsurou on Real's order. The conclusion of this route, which is shown Rinko's training dairy segment, ends by showing Rinko reaching orgasm out of nothing but pure loyalty for Real when declaring her new undying devotion to him.
  • Victim Falls For Rapist: Falls in love with Real in the Fallen Rinko ending.
  • What Happened to the Mouse?: Kind of disappeared half way through the third episode in the OVA, with no mention of what became of her. Although one can assume that she is still a Sex Slave for Under Eden and is possibly pregnant like Yukikaze was in the epilogue.
  • X-Ray Vision: Another one her unique ninja abilities.
  • Zettai Ryouiki: Her Under Eden uniform in TY1, her maid outfit in TY2, as well as her school uniform, all being Grade A.

Tatsurou Akiyama

Tatsurou

The younger brother of Rinko, and the childhood friend/boyfriend of Yukikaze. Like his sister, his weapon of choice is a katana. He also has the ability to manipulate wind.

  • A Date with Rosie Palms: In several of the bad ending routes and in OVA ending, to videos of his (ex) girlfriend (and sister depending on the ending) being violated.
  • Bishonen: The only consistent trait of his character design.
  • Blinding Bangs: In the manga adaptation, likely given to him due to being The Faceless Supporting Protagonist for the visual novel.
  • Blow You Away: His ninja ability. Unlike most examples, Tatsurou uses his ability to alter his weight, allow his briefly glide in the air. He also manipulate the wind to reduce the a sense of presence, basically no one would hear him move around, like he was the air itself. Tatsurou has stated his abilities best used for stealth than combat.
  • Break the Cutie: Can be a sad victim of the Netorare Genre depending on if the player choose the Downer Ending route. This is played straight in the OVA series and manga adaptation.
  • Brother-Sister Incest: Averted in the first Taimanin Yukikaze. However, this could occur in the second game, depending on the player's choices.
  • Chick Magnet: Yukikaze, Shizuru, and even his own sister, are attracted to him.
  • Childhood Friend Romance: With Yukikaze.
  • Classical Antihero: Doesn't really have much self-confidence in himself, and is noticeable weaker than most of the other major Taimanins. He doesn't even fight anyone during the Action Prologue, something that Yukikaze even berate him for.
  • Darkest Hour: In a few of the possible endings and at the end of the OVA series.
  • Depending on the Artist: He is the only major Taimanin that doesn't have a character sprite. As a result, his physical appearance would often vary depending on adaptation. In the visual novel, he has green eyes, brown hair, and is stated to be taller than his sister. In the OVA series, he has purple hair and eyes, and is shorter than Rinko.
  • Distaff Counterpart: His character design in the OVA series is a younger gender swap version of his sister.
  • H-Game POV Character: Type II;B for the Taimanin Yukikaze series.
  • The Faceless: For most of the visual novel series, subverted in the OVA series. You do see his face at least once in the visual novels during one of Yukikaze's downer ending h-scenes, watching in horror as his girlfriend enjoys sex with the villains.
  • I Have No Son: In the non-canon "Fallen Rinko" route in TY1, he mentally disown his sister after Rinko betrayed him and Yukikaze.
  • The Load: Arguable the weakest Taimanin on this list.
  • Only Sane Man: Have to give him credit in the canon route of TY1 for being the only person to realize how stupid it is trust Yukikaze and Rinko's lives to a well known criminal and had to beg Asagi and Sakura to personally check on their students, which they are able to do by having Sakura use her Casting a Shadow ability to spy on Zokuto while hiding in his shadow, which begs to question of why they just did not do that in first place.
  • Overshadowed by Awesome: While he is much more skilled than normal humans, he is nowhere near as strong as his sister or his girlfriend.
  • Sensitive Guy and Manly Man: Of the two major male Taimanin, he is the "sensitive guy" to Kurou's "Manly Man".
  • Spell My Name with an "S": Depending on the translation, his name could be spelled out as either "Tatsurou" or "Tatsuro".
  • Supporting Protagonist: Many of the advents of Taimanin Yukikaze 1 and 2 are told from his point of view.
  • Suspiciously Similar Substitute: Is one for Kyousuke; he has a Childhood Friend Romance with a titular character, the Nice Guy, and a Bishonen in the OVA.

Shiranui Mizuki

Shiranui Mizuki

The mother of Yukikaze. Stated to be a powerful and well respected Taimanin. She disappear 5 years prior to the advents of Taimanin Yukikaze during a mission investigated the brothel, Under Eden, located in the lawless town of Yomihara. Her weapon of choice is a spear and her ninja ability is to manipulate water.

Action Taimanin chucks all the above bad stuff out the window and assumes she's just fine, still on the good guy team, and even playable. This means she gets to work alongside her daughter and Rinko on heroic terms as well.

  • Abusive Parents: She was a loving mother to Yukikaze and honorary aunt to the Akiyama siblings, however thanks to Under Eden's conditioning, Shiranui becomes this in TY1. In that state, she would only love Yukikaze and Rinko if they become mind broken slaves like her. In the non-canon route, she is willing to let her's and Yazaki's infant daughter be sold into slavery to be a future Sex Slave when she get older... Yikes!
  • The Ace: She is stated to be one of the strongest and that her skills rivals Asagi.
  • Action Mom: Stated to be almost as strong as Asagi.
  • Adaptational Badass: Action Taimanin, by virtue of taking place in a way less messed alternate universe version of the franchise (where most of the darker events did not end half as bad as they otherwise did), allows Shiranai to completely sidestep all the bad things that happened to her in canon and lets her be playable on the good guy team alongside her daughter.
  • Babies Ever After: A dark example in the non-canon bad ending when she gives birth to Yazaki's daughter, Hotaru.
  • Boobs of Steel: She is one of the strongest Taimanin and currently has the largest breasts among all the Taimanin with a measurement of 112 cm. For reference, Asagi's largest known measurement is 90 cm in TA3, and Rinko who is known for her Gag Boobs has a measurement of 87 cm.
  • The Brute: To the Under Eden Gang in TY1 seeing as she is the only antagonist in that game with fighting abilities.
  • Climax Boss: Of TY1. After everything the heroes went through to find her, their reunion is short lived when its reveal that Yazaki was the one who set up Yukikaze and Rinko to take on the mission that was doomed to fail as part of his Revenge. To top it all off, Yazaki also reveals that Shiranui has been Reforged Into a Minion.
  • Elemental Shapeshifter: One of her ninja arts is to turn her body into water to avoid standard physical attacks.
  • Face Monster Turn: After being brainwashed and sexually tortured for 5 years by Under Eden and Ryuji, Shiranui become an antagonist in TY1 and TY2.
  • The Ghost: For most the OVA series. She has yet to make a physical appearance outside the opening credits. It wouldn't be until the "bonus" episode would she make an actual appearance.
  • Hair Decorations: Has a large ribbon in her hair that almost makes it look like that she has bunny ears at first glance.
  • Hopeless Boss Fight: In TY1. No matter what the main characters do they are unable to defeat the Brainwashed and Crazy Shiranui. Yukikaze can't bring herself to fight her own mother and falls in despair after seeing her in this state, while the Akiyama siblings are hopelessly outmatched. The fight becomes even more hopeless in the Fallen Rinko route when Tatsurou is forced to fight her and Rinko. The only way the heroes can get a "good ending" is to abort their mission early and avoiding fighting her all together.
  • Made a Slave: While Shiranui was on a mission at Yomihara, she was capture by Real and the demon, Ryuji Kuroi. For years, Real was tasked with "training" Shiranui, until she became Yazaki and Ryuji's personal slave, for both combat and other...uses. Ryuji occasional "lends" Shiranui to Under Eden, but most of the time she is usually stationed at HijiriOsamu academy.
  • Making a Splash: Her unique ninja ability is to manipulate water. She can even turn her body into water.
  • Mighty Glacier: In Action Taimanin, she's powerful and has great range, but has low agility.
  • Missing Mom: Has been missing for 5 years while on a mission at the fictional town of Yomihara.
  • Reforged Into a Minion: Become Under Eden's top enforcer and Yazaki's mistress after being sexually tortured and brainwashed for 5 years.
  • Sex Slave: What became of her during her 5 years disappearance. However, considering she disappeared while investigating a corrupt brothel, who honestly did not see this coming.
  • Small Role, Big Impact: In Taimanin Yukikaze. She only appears for a few scenes in the game, however, she is the reason why Yukikaze and Rinko are investigating the brothel in the first place.
  • Teen Pregnancy: She was apparently 18 years old when she gave birth to Yukikaze.
  • Unwitting Instigator of Doom: Her capture/disappearance was the catalyst that caused the advent of Taimanin Yukikaze 1 and 2. This sort of makes her indirectly responsible for all the suffering that Yukikaze, Rinko, Tatsurou, and Shizuru had to endure during the advents of those games.
  • What Happened to the Mouse?: Unlike in the visual novel, the detail of her disappearance and her fate are not revealed in the OVA series. This is partly subverted in the bonus episode, however her overall fate remains unknown.

Kotarou Fuuma

Kotaro Fuuma

A first year student in Gosha Academy like Yukikaze. The current head of the Fuuma clan. Since he hasn't awakened his clan's bloodline magical eye (which makes his right eye closed at all times), he is often scorned as "the Fuuma head with a missing eye". However, he compensates it with a deep knowledge of the Taimanin ninja arts he gained from reading old and secret tomes from the Gosha Academy's library, in turn making him an excellent commander and support.

The main protagonist of the Taimanin RPGX mobile/browser game, his story begins when Gosha Academy was attacked and he along with his half-sister Tokiko were forced to go rogue. He was also the main POV of Battle Arena with a different take to his RPGX self.

  • The Ace: Downplayed. His status as the current head of the Fuuma clan makes the people at the academy view him as this despite his Non-Action Guy facade. His main strengths are his tactical skill and quick wit, which makes him very valuable as a special forces unit commander.
  • Alternate Self/Early Installment Weirdness: His Battle Arena self doesn't match his later personality shown in RPGX. In the former, he looks older, has a more generic H-game POV and behavior, and generally was more of a Jerkass than the Chivalrous Pervert established in the latter. Justified, as TABA was meant as a showcase for the girls in different situations.
  • Biggus Dickus: He is rather well-endowed.
  • Chick Magnet: Being the designated and actually capable male protagonist in a hentai game full of attractive girls makes him this. In-game though, it depends on the player since it relies on the Relationship Values they build with each respective girl.
  • Chivalrous Pervert: He's not above giving propositions with the Taimanin girls, including Asagi and original Oboro (who, by the time RPGX takes place, are at least two times his age). Fortunately, he respects them as much. This is shown in some of the H-scenes, in particular when he had comforting sex with Rinko after the latter was raped multiple times in a mission.
  • Expy:Averted, His commanding skills and protagonist status might mirrors Ritsuka Fujimaru, the protagonist from Fate/Grand Order. In fact, Kotarou is what Male!Fujimaru would be if FGO has explicit content, however Taimanin Asagi Battle arena where he debuted was released on 2014, months before FGO. He did shares some similarities with Sasuke from Naruto, being a Rogue Protagonist from a family of ninjas that have magical eyes.
  • Eye Awaken: Inverted; he hasn't awakened his clan's specific magical eye, which makes his right eye closed at all times.
  • Hidden Depths: Deep down, he actually doesn't want to disappoint his half-sister Tokiko by being an inadequate clan head.
  • I Just Want to Be Free: He doesn't want to meddle in clan affairs and would much prefer to live as he wants.
  • Indy Ploy: He can come up with a winning plan in a pinch within seconds.
  • Legacy Character: In-universe, he is the latest descendant of the famous ninja Fuuma Kotarou, with each successive head of the clan inheriting the name.
  • Mission Control: His main role throughout Action Taimanin.
  • Named After Somebody Famous: His family line has the same name as the historical ninja, and it's quite likely he was an In-Universe descendant, as the historical one was associated with demons and his name means "wind demon". The evil eyes of the game versions are also a reference to some depictions of the historical version.
  • Non-Action Guy: While he has the basic physicality and conditioning of a Taimanin, he's more or less stayed behind the front lines as the commander of his unit.
  • Rogue Protagonist: At the beginning of RPGX story, he went underground with Tokiko to deal with the game's first villain who invaded the academy. Averted later, when Asagi assigns him to be Gosha's special forces commander to go on various missions.
  • Sins of Our Fathers: His father, Danjou Fuuma, was on the opposing side of the Taimanins and killed by young Asagi and Oboro (the original one). He was still a young kid back then, yet he took it rather well and didn't even seem to hold a major grudge against the Taimanins and was counted as one of them, to the point of being appointed as their special forces commander by the same ninja who killed his dad.

Tokiko Fuuma

Tokiko Fuuma

Kotarou's older half-sister and stewardess of the Fuuma clan. She is the child that Kotarou's deceased father had with a concubine.  Upon her birth, she was adopted by the family that had served as stewards of the Fuuma clan for generations, and is a talented woman that has supported Kotarou in his endeavors. Her favored weapon is the kunai. She is praised as the Fuuma family's strongest kunai user, and her close-combat abilities is regarded as the greatest among the Taimanin. Unlike Kotarou, she is able to use the evil eye characteristic of the Fuuma family. Tokiko's evil eye is called "Clairvoyance" allows her to separate her vision from her physical body and send it off to wherever she may choose, allowing her to essentially sneak into any location.

  • Cool Big Sis: Being Kotarou's older half-sister.
  • Deuteragonist: Of Taimanin RPGX mobile/browser game.
  • Expy: If Kotarou in RPGX is Fujimaru in Grand Order, then Tokiko is basically Mashu, being a more combat capable Deuteragonist with feelings towards the main character. The main difference is Tokiko being more explicit towards Kotarou with some Brother-Sister Incest involved.
  • Heroic Bastard: Considering she is the daughter of an evil Taimanin and a prostitute (technically a concubine), she turned out rather well.
  • Leotard of Power: Part of her Taimanin outfit.
  • Rogue Protagonist: With Kotarou at the beginning of Taimanin RPGX.
  • Sins of Our Fathers: She is the daughter of Danjou Fuuma and as you can see from Kotarou Fuuma'ss entry, he wasn't exactly a nice guy.
  • Son of a Whore: Daughter of a concubine, if you are being technical.
  • Third Eye: Appears when she uses her evil eye ability, which can only be activated by Tokiko closes both her natural eyes.
  • Undying Loyalty: Kotarou's safety and his growth to being the head of the Fuuma clan is her number 1 priority.
