Setsuna

From Koei Tecmo Wiki
Not to be confused with a Gundam protagonist.

Setsuna (刹那) is an original character in Warriors All-Stars.

Role in Games

Warriors All-Stars

Setsuna is Tamaki and Shiki's cousin who is the son of an earlier king. His father died when he was still young, so Setsuna lost the right to inherit the throne long before the current setting. With the world in its current crisis, he opposes Tamaki's right for inheritance.

He owns the Kusanagi Sword as proof of his royal lineage.

Toukiden

After the events of Warriors All-Stars, Setsuna and his relatives are devoured by a demon and warp to Nakatsu Kuni near Shinonome Village. Their royal treasures protect their souls from being devoured by the demons of Ōka's world. Surrounded by them, Setsuna does his best to defend himself until Tamaki guides the protagonist's party to his rescue.

Character Information

Development

Furusawa remarked that the original characters in Warriors All-Stars were originally designed to be human beings, but the team felt that their visuals "lost entirely" to characters from other IPs. They then tried to make the original characters appear to be "almighty", but this was declined for going too overboard just for the sake of distinguishing them. Their current beastly appearances were originally suggested by one of the game's designers. It was accepted since anthropomorphism wasn't present in the other Warriors IPs that they had picked. Furusawa wanted the original characters to be in the roster so they could help provide different perspectives in a "long and tight" character driven narrative.

Kikuchi took care to portray Setsuna as a "passionate boy". He struggled acting for his interactions with the female cast since his character's admiration for them took time for him to portray.

Personality

Setsuna is a hot-blooded and active youth. He doesn't like to stay in one place for too long.

Despite their actual family ties, he is close to Tamaki and Shiki and considers them to be his surrogate siblings.

Character Symbolism

The Kusanagi Sword is one of the Three Imperial Regalia of Japan.
