Main characters

Unchou Kan'u76 fan favorites
External profile
Anime Kan'u is known as the Beautiful Black-haired bandit fighter and wields the Green Dragon Crescent Blade. She is much like her male counterpart, Guan Yu. She is also one of the main characters beside Chouhi. Her past reveals that her family was killed by bandits, which made it her quest to ensure Innocent people will never suffer like she did. She cares a lot for her friends, and she is a sister to Chouhi after they swore a vow of sisterhood because she felt sorry for Chouhi's loneliness. Two common recurring jokes about her are: 1) That most people who heard of her believe that she is a beautiful girl, only to meet her and realize that she is just normal-looking, and 2) Some of the female characters mistakenly believe she and Rinrin are mother and daughter despite the fact she is still young. The second running gag is carried even further in Shin Koihime Musou when Kousonsan mistakes Koumei as Kan'u's daughter as well. Somewhat self-conscious of her appearance, she often finds herself as the butt of jokes to those who blatantly point out physical aspects of her, such as her age, which she is very sensitive of. Another notable gag was when Kan'u found a seemingly-suitable male soulmate, the relationship was to be very short-lived. She is a pure virgin, as noted in season 1's fourth episode, where she nervously admits to Karin that it was her first time when she conceded to sleep with the young ruler in exchange for Bachou's release. After having Ryuubi join them in the second season, she becomes a role model for Ryuubi who later decides to makes a vow of sisterhood with her as Kan'u's older sister (as Kan'u already made vow with Chouhi's as her older sister). Kan'u at first felt it was inappropriate as she is older than her but by the beginning of third season, she accepted calling Ryuubi her Aneue (older sister). Visual Novel Arguably the main heroine of the first game. Kan'u shows up shortly after Hongo is transported back in time and saves him from a group of bandits, and due to Hongo's costume and manner of speech, subsequently mistakes him to be the "Messenger from Heaven" and becomes the first person to vow her loyalty to him. Kan'u remains the driving force behind the Hongou/Shu army and displays many heroic actions in the war, often being the leading voices for the other girls as well as the motivator of the group. However, due to her past, she strongly rejects Hongo for calling her a girl, stating, "Nothing as weak as that!" In the sequel, Shin Koihime Musou, Kan'u is relegated to the position of Ryuubi's second in command and confidante. Here she is a very strict general and disciplinarian, especially towards Ryuubi herself (due to Ryuubi being a rather naive and reluctant queen), and Kazuto (likely out of jealousy over Ryuubi's closeness to Kazuto, since she herself in fact harbors romantic feelings toward him).

Chouhi Yokutoku34 fan favorites
External profile
Visual novel Chouhi joins Kazuto along with Kan'u after the two discover him together. Unlike Kan'u, who holds a more reserved Master-servant-like relationship with Kazuto, she treats Kazuto like an older sibling and calls him "big brother," similar to how she treats Kan'u. As a powerful character, Chouhi has the strongest Damage ability when used as a general in the game. However, she has no defense technique when used as a commander, thus making her unfit to be one. Anime Chouhi is a talkative and always cheerful girl. Although she is small and very smart in some things, she is naive in others, yet very powerful and strong, capable of competing against Kan'u in armed melee combat. She is one of the main characters and the first person to join Kan'u. Chouhi will also be very dedicated to her duty no matter what the cost to her (in one episode, for example, she fights bandits despite having a cold.) During the second season, she was opposed of Ryūbi of becoming Kan'u little sister as Chouhi was already made a vow with Kan'u to be her little sister but accepted when Ryūbi decides to make Kan'u her little sister instead. By the third season, she has accepted Ryūbi as her other older sister and even calling her Touka-neechan. She wears a hairpin in the shape of a round yellow "smiley face" that changes expressions according to Chouhi's mood. Before she joined Kan'u, she was a leader of a kids bandit group called Rin Rin Bandits. The reason she made that group was so she wouldnt feel alone. When she was very young, a group of bandits killed her parents and was taken in by her grandfather. But when he passed away, she was all alone, until she met Kan'u. She only approves her friends and family to call her Rin Rin, her real name. (Source: Wikipedia)
Chouun Shiryuu34 fan favorites
External profile
Anime Chouun is a mysterious girl who appears calm, collected, and very powerful. She is the second person to join the group. She loves to tease Kan'u and other women frequently. She also assumes the identity of a hero of justice named Butterfly Mask, hence wearing a Butterfly mask. In Shin Koihime Musou, Chouun (in Kachou Kamen's form), saves Ryuubi from bandits with her secret technique, making Ryuubi develop a crush on Kachou Kamen. Chouun asked Ryuubi who saved her, and she "innocently" said good things about her (Kachou Kamen is super cool, and noble), raising Chouun's mood high. Chouun is also scary when she's smiling (Sui will have nightmares about it and Shion won't let her daughter sees Chouun's smiling face). Chouun even continues teasing Kan'u in more ridiculous ways (like an embarrassing introduction of Kan'u to the bandits who attacked Ryuubi—and Chouun gets a lump on the head as a result). In Koihime Musou's OVA, Chouun (as Kachou Kamen) appeared and swam, but Kouchuu, who acted as the school's doctor, said that its okay, since Kachou kamen's appearance looks like Chouun, and she immediately tied up and put into an unused class, until night and no one seems to notice her missing (even her daughter, who asked about her whereabouts before). Visual Novel When Kan'u was fighting the Tou army, she fought alongside Chouun for a while; when this war ended, Chouun met Kazuto and took a liking to him, promising to join his army later. She joins alongside Kouchuu after the battle with Enshou. She has a strong obsession of menma. She also has a habit of running around the city as the masked hero of justice "Butterfly Mask." Strangely, no one other than Kazuto and Shuri can recognize her true identity, despite only wearing a mask. (Source: Wikipedia)

Visual novel version When her father died, she joined Kazuto's army so she can get revenge on Sōsō. She joins during the war against Enshō. She becomes extremely embarrassed when alone with a man, making her relationship with Kazuto start off strangely in the Base Phase events. Anime version Chōhi's friend and daughter of the late Batō who was supposedly killed by Sōsō. Although she speaks like a man, she is really a simple, straight-forward, and easily embarrassed girl. She wields a simple looking spear but is very strong in both power and form. The third person to join the group. Manga version Bachou's version in the Manga has notably been drawn with thicker eye-brows (Source: Wikipedia)

Visual novel version When she was evacuating a village and met Kazuto, she was shocked to see the very "messenger from heaven" helping the people. She begs Kazuto to let her join his army, and he allows her to due to his knowledge that she was a master strategist. The third to join the group. She has a tendency to say "Hawawa" very often to the point of the being called the "Hawawa Strategist" by the soldiers. She also has a hobby of reading perverted books to discover new ways to please Kazuto. Anime version A shy, kind, and reserved girl around the same age as Rinrin, but is a smart, good strategist in battle. However, her naive and child-like nature often overshadows these attributes, and has been known to act on the same level of immaturity as Chōhi. She wants to become a great scholar like her master Shibaki. The fourth to join the group. She was also trained in herbal medicine. In Shin Koihime she is revealed to have taken up her visual novel hobby of reading perverted books. (Source: Wikipedia)
