Yeah, he was a pleasant surprise in that hes great to use (i had my doubts on seeing his weapon

) and has a great personality, i liked him from the very start.
On that note i like what they did also with Katsuie too, he suits his moveset and keeps his loyal stance and intimidating presence. Yoshimoto is made out to be a complete bufoon but kemari obsession aside i really like the eccentric behaviour and banter from him, hes meant to be funny and never fails to deliver on that front for me.
On the bad side for me is Gracias moveset - its awful, so too is her musuo attack. She has a great special attack but it eats through her musuo like nothing else ive seen in a warriors game. Personality wise shes not bad - her girly peaceful characteristics are exactly what i imagined Koei would do with there new female cast member.
I also have to say that i didnt like what the did with Kojiro either - the whole "beautiful" obsession means they got so devoid of imagination they simple read the Zhang He blueprint and transferred it from DW to SW. He had a great emotionless edge in SW2 as a NPC but they completely changed that for XL and ruined him for me. He was the one i most wanted to play and its fair to say i was disgusted on playing his musuo through.
As for Toshiie - brilliant moveset but hes more like a spoilt brat than legendary warrior. Didnt honestly see that one coming
