Ieyasu Tokugawa

Ieyasu Tokugawa, also known as Irdene, is a character from the Sengoku BASARA series of action games.

Biography[]

Ieyasu Tokugawa is at first a far cry from his usual appearance in various media, portrayed as a little kid with very limited patience. He was a young boy with high ambitions and tends to speak as if he is an old man. Rather lacking in war capabilities and personal battle, Ieyasu put great trust on his army, and especially his mighty warrior Tadakatsu Honda. He was usually referred to by his child name "Takechiyo". Because of that, he was prone to getting kidnapped and had to depend on Tadakatsu to rescue him, making him look like a pathetic, over-dependent daimyo (military lord).

This changes in Sengoku BASARA: Samurai Heroes, where he is depicted to have grown up and taken position as one of the main characters of the game alongside Yukimura Sanada and Masamune Date, signifying that he is now able to take care of himself. Since having put an end to Hideyoshi, Mitsunari Ishida is now his fiercest foe.

Gameplay[]

Weapons[]

Before Sengoku BASARA: Samurai Heroes, Ieyasu wielded a spear and fought in the same style of Toshiie Maeda. From Samurai Heroes on, his story depicts him to have discarded his weapon (along with his helmet), fighting with just his fists, enhanced with brass knuckles.
