Sengoku Musou (PlayStation 2) Samurai Warriors (PlayStation 2) Song Lyrics (Version 3.0 - Text Version) Current Update: Sunday, 27 February 2005 Previous Update: Monday, 12 April 2004 Created: Tuesday, 24 February 2004 By Don "Gamera" Chan (crs1219@h_tmail.c_m) NOTE: I do not have this game or a PlayStation 2. I typed up this file as a "fan service" for the fellow "AiM" Maeda Ai (Edit Bushou Onna and Oichi), Suzuki Mariko ("Onou" Nouhime and Soldier 3), and Yamazaki Wakana (Okuni) fans out there. And no, I am not a BoA fan. Lastly, "Oran" Ranmaru was and is male always, albeit in this game, he is voiced by the voice actress who recently voiced Cagalli Yula Athha tan in Gundam SEED and Gundam SEED DESTINY. 1.

Or, possibly earlier from shipwrecked Europeans who landed on Tanegashima Island near Kyuushuu Island. Today, Tanegashima Island is the site of the Japanese space centre that launches the H2 series rockets. It is also the namesake of the musket user, Tanegashima, in Mitsurugi Heishirou's ending in Soul Edge for PlayStation. Also, the Sengoku Period Japanese musket was a smoothbore musket, and IMO shouldn't be called a "rifle", unless one is referring to the length of the musket. The rifling (helical grooves) on the inside of a musket barrel was developed since circa 1550s, but this technology didn't become widespread until circa 1850s France. Later (Friday, 2004.03.05): Nouhime is derived from "Minonokuni no hime", that is, "Princess of Mino State". She is also called Kichou. Nouhime is pronounced as "noh-hee-meh", where "noh" rhymes with "normal" and "north".
