Summary
History Revisionists began attacking the past to change history.
In order to stop them, the Government of the Time appointed the "Saniwa" with protecting history.
Saniwa can awaken tsukumogami (tools with spirits), the Touken Danshi.
They travel through time and seek to defeat the History Retrograde Army (HRA) who seek to alter history.
The Saniwa and Touken Danshi were enjoying a peaceful life
when they were suddenly attacked by the HRA.
After a fierce battle, the Touken Danshi managed to overcome
the HRA, but the Honmaru was greatly damaged, weakening
their military strength. In addition, in the midst of the battle, the
Saniwa, who are vital to the Honmaru, disappeared.

Touken Ranbu Warriors shows once again that Koei-Tecmo does a much better job in the Warriors series spin-offs than in the main Dynasty series, delivering a delicious Musou to be played, in every single aspect of the game, from deep characters to perfect environments. With missions that are shorter than usual, it is the perfect game for beginners in the genre.

Touken Ranbu Warriors offers exactly the kind of interaction between Touken Ranbu’s characters and musou mechanics that is only possible here, while maintaining the charm that makes the original property so beloved. Although some elements of the honmaru may not live up to the same high bar set by the missions, it’s still such a natural fit that the minor drawbacks seem less to disappoint and more to open up the possibility of future improvements. The ways Warriors intuitively expands the world of Touken Ranbu makes me excited for the possibility of other titles set across different time periods in Japan with the appropriate Touken Danshi and their previous masters. Although there’s no guarantee of what the future holds in that regard, I’ll happily return time and again to Touken Ranbu Warriors for its unique spin on the world of Touken Ranbu.

While it may not feel like a traditional entry into the Warriors style of spinoff games that most are used to, there is a unique feel to be found in Touken Ranbu Warriors. With an interesting setting that has both characters that are engaging and a unique play on its historical situations, there’s a lot to enjoy for anyone.
