Ikevil: https://sortr.io/sorter/ikemen-villains-new-lis-npj2m (someone already made this, but they havenāt included the newest LIs yet. So I made a new one with the complete list.)
Okay, @/MyGoodnessGravy on twt posted some stuff that probably happened QnA that happen in anime expo this year (2026). So here you go for those who doesnāt want to go on twt to see itš
OCs (with their respective owners) featured in this Act: Arundhati & Violet/Kyoko( @just-a-little-silly), Marie @oda-princess), Morgan ( @welp-back-on-my-bs), Cherry ( @cherrykasugayama)
A day passed since everyone somewhat came clean to each other. It doesnāt mean that a certain warlord was glaring at his vassals for keeping him in the dark, especially Shingen.
āThank you for everything!ā Ranmaru bowed to them, a sign of respect despite being enemies.
āYes, thank you so much!ā Mai followed suit.
Everyone was saying their goodbyes to each other as those who came from Azuchi set out.Ā
Shingen himself added, āYouāre welcome back anytime. Iāve got sweets and sweet nothings ready for you any time youād like.ā
Some of the group cringed or looked disappointed in Shingenās efforts of flirting before being interrupted by Yukimura, āYou shouldāve stopped at sweets."
āTake this withĀ you,ā Kenshin gifted Cherry a jar of pickle plums.
āOh? I wasnāt expecting such a gift from the God of War, Lord Kenshin,ā Cherry gave out a small chuckle before accepting his gift.
āHow are we going to transport that?ā Marie looked at Morgan, who shrugged their shoulders.
Meanwhile, Arundhati, Sasuke, Yukimura, Kyoko, and Mai were all cracking jokes about the past few days of their stays and the parties. Without including how some would complain about the frequent banquets that would be held with high quality sake and food ā Masamune would enjoy this minus the sake part.
But the only ones that were quiet during this were Morgan, Yoshimoto, and Amaryllis. Both feel that something amiss, especially the lack of presence of the Imagawa vassals, which should be a good thing ā to them it means some bomb is about to blow up.
While Ranmaru was joining in the conversation, a new person called Okuni ā a performer that Yoshimoto would call upon became a close friend to Mai ā came running and hugged Mai in front of Mai. Stunning everyone.
āMai! I wish you could stay forever!ā
āI know. Me too. But itās got to be today. My friends are needed back home and my seamstress friends are waiting for me. I have to go,ā Mai reassured Okuni, clearly treating them as if they were children by smoothing their hair.
Okuni was clearly saddened but reluctantly let go after hearing Maiās promise to keep sewing costumes for them before running behind Yoshimoto.
āI wish you all a safe journey.ā
āThank you for everything. I wish I had better words to express itāā Mai went up to Yoshimoto to continue her thanks only for Yoshimoto to cut it short.
āAs do I. The only way I know to say it is⦠youāve given me an irreplaceable gift. Something I will always remember,ā with that, Yoshimoto smiled before tucking a strand of hair behind Maiās ear.
āMai! Hurry up!ā Morgan called out to the lovestrucked Mai, getting her attention.
āThe horses are ready!ā
Mai turned to her friends before turning to Yoshimoto one last time. No words were needed as Yoshimoto nodded her to go. Mai quickly seated behind Morgan who pulled her as they galloped away.
Mai turned back before yelling to Yoshimoto, āY-Yoshimoto⦠Iāll see you soon!ā A smile formed on Yoshimoto when he heard that.
Leading some of her friends to crack a smile as they turned their heads to see their once foes, now friends, one last time before it changed as they left Echigo.
After the Azuchi group left, Yoshimoto returned to his room. Seeing his vassals after a joyful moment took him off guard, āWeāve been waiting for you.ā
āWhat are you all doing here?ā
āDo you remember the contents of that missive we gave you when you left Azuchi?ā
That seems to click in Yoshimotoās mind, ā...yesā¦ā
Deep down, he knows that the moment he accepts this offer, he must turn his back on his friends and family. Thinking about the one vassal that truly respects his ideas, he thought he could get her out of this mess before it becomes bigger.
A war council was made shortly after.
āIs everyone here?ā Kenshin sat at his usual position, eyeing Sasuke.
āWhatās this aboutĀ Kenshin?ā seems like Shingen was acting oblivious to the matter.
Sasuke, being Kenshinās translation, conveys his lordās words, āIāll start us off. Weāve just got news from Kanetsugu.ā
āThat would meanā!ā Kyokoās eyes glimmered in the news.
āHe did what I told him,Ā identifying the mastermind trying to interfere in my conflict.ā
āHuh!?ā that stunned both sides, clearly wasnāt expecting such.
Yukimura on the other hand did a small fist bump on the news, āSo Kanetsugu finally did it!ā
While everyone was showering in the good news, none paid attention to Yoshimoto who had no emotions. Only for it to break when Kenshin said these words, āThatās not all the news. Our troublemaker is aiming for Azuchi, right now. Very soon, that castle will burn.ā
Stunning everyone once more, but not in joy, but in fear, especially those who are friends with the group who left earlier. Even as Kenshin continued with mentioning of this enemy possessing foreign weapons that exceed the current ones used in the battlefield. Even reaching to a point that he imaginedĀ himself as the enemy for the next move, Morganās influence seems to have impacted him somewhat.
Yoshimoto said that they should head to Azuchi under the guise of gathering information before being caught by Shingen ā who is also worried respectfully. Shortly afterwards, everyone in that group that left earlier is part of the Oda, stunning everyone in the room except for the heads, Sasuke, Kyoko, and Arundhati. Yukimura was shocked when he heard everything, especially how Morgan is now part of the Oda Forces, but the respect was still there according to Kenshin, who supported Morganās choice after stating to him they never gave a single information. In the end, all of the warlords agreed to set out.
āArundhati.ā
āYes, Lord Yoshimoto?ā
Yoshimoto sucked in a breath before giving a final verdict, āFrom here on out, you do not need to work for me."
āW-whatā¦?ā that made Arundhati stunned in disbelief.Ā
āIāve asked my cousin, Shingen, to take you back. I canāt let you get involved in this web of mine.ā
Arundhati could only stare at Yoshimoto as he left. She never imagined that this would be his way of keeping her safe from not just him, but everything that is connected to the name of Imagawa.

OCs (with their respective owners) featured in this Act: Arundhati & Violet/Kyoko( @just-little-silly)
Arundhati turned to see some of the Imagawa vassals in their old robes ā their former glory as a powerful clan ā who only looked at her with disgust. It isnāt common for her to feel racism, especially xenophobia, in a foreign country, but it does take a toll on her mind over time. Thus, making a distance from the majority of the remaining Imagawa vassals; even when ignoring their words, it still pierce her heart. Perhaps itās the reason why Yoshimoto didnāt make her stay for long ā to get her out of such a toxic place.
āAru.ā Turning to the voice who called her, Kyoko looked at her with worry.
āKyoko?ā
āYouāve been spacing out,ā Kyoko turned to the Imagawa vassals with a glare ā making them run knowing how important Kyoko has become, āThose arrogant bastards have started to become a thorn in everyoneās butts. I know you chose this path out of your own volition, but remember, you have friends you can rely on, Aru.ā
Arundhati was taken aback, after four years of staying in the Sengoku period, she hasnāt felt an urge to return home lately. She felt more at home here lately than in the 21st century. āI keep forgetting that I have so many people willing to listen to me, to hear my worries. Especially Sasuke, he listens to my concerns and worries without asking much.ā
Kyoko smiled at Arundhati, seeing the signs of someone having a crush, āPerhaps you should talk to Sasuke, Aru.ā
āEh?ā
Without giving Arundhati a chance to respond, Kyoko disappeared with the smile still on her face. To her, it is the best she could do for her younger sister ā one she has skated with since they were children.
āKyoko advised you to come to me?ā Sasuke sat there in shock.
āYup,ā Arundhati sat down, clearly confused on why Kyoko said that.
The conversation started to drift from MERITS related to their personal life ā their goals and beliefs. With Arundhati confiding in Sasuke on how she started to no longer feel an urge to go home, feeling more at ease here than the present.Ā
āThen it is also the same as for everyone here.ā
That caught Arundhati off guard, ā...really?ā
āMai told me that she wishes to stay here. Morgan said so as well, we all have our reasons. It is hard but,ā Sasuke looked at Arundhati with admiration, āyou saved my life from that thunderbolt⦠It may sound cheesy, but that was when I first started to fall in love with you. Even though you can protect yourself I still want to protect you, Aru.ā
Arundhati stared at Sasuke, she could feel her cheeks turning red from hearing those words ā someone she too admired but shoved her feelings down telling her how he felt about her. āI⦠I didnāt know you felt the same about me, Sasuke.ā
This time, Sasuke felt embarrassed, āThe amount of calculations weāve done together definitely sped up the process of the feelings I have about you. You seem to shine more than ever when I see you smile.ā
Giving Sasuke a light smack on his arm, Arundhati broke into a giggle, āI suppose that makes us⦠official? Boyfriend and girlfriend, perhaps?ā
āIt is official if you want it to be, there are times I still get blinded by your smile.ā
āThen itās official."
Nobody else except for Sasuke and Arundhati heard their words of affection and declaration of courting each other. Kunai sat from afar,watching her owner and mate starting the first step as a couple, yet her ears twitched, making her turn her head to see who was watching. Only for nothing to be there.

Someone on twitter posted some responses from Cybird at the Q&A from Anime Expo
Main takeaway:
Every game has their own team
One on the EN Ikevil team is a writer which is why there is a bunch of EN content only
Ikesen also has one on their team which is a long-time translator, but for the others are not on the house. (Which makes it more expensive) hopefully Iām interpreting this right š
There is atleast two teams of translators that focus on translating the main routes while the other is translating events.
THE EN PRODUCER OF CYBIRD DOES NOT LIKE AI! HELL YEAH! But it also states that many companies feel pressure to use AI as stuff gets expensive to produce.
Google and Apple take 30% of the profits, which is why they are asking players to support them by the web pages. (A big slice of pie that those two companies are getting as companies has a lot to pay for ex. writers, editors, artists, translators, servers, maintenance, and a lot more)
Every route has been planned YEARS in advance. Which means Ranmaruās route has been revised several times over the past 5 or 7 years before it finally released in JP.
They donāt plan to make plushies since they are expensive to produce.
The MCs are the hardest to make since there is no reference materials for them.
Book 1 is the prequel of Book 2. Book 2 contains other OCs given permission by their respective owners. I highly suggest to check out each of their blogs, even if they may not be online much.
Book 2.5 follows up Ikesen main story, with the route I chose to be canon in my story being Yoshimotoās. He and Mai got a lot of chemistry together š
Dividers - @/sweethearticism
Book 1 - Fleeting Moments of the Past
Book 1 Characters brief description
started on 12/20/25; finished on 1/17/26
(Ikesen) Book 2 - Unspoken Rules of the Warring Lands
ALL OF THIS IS AN AU! The writing here may not fit my mutualsā OCs lores, but they gave me permission to write them despite having a lack of information at the time! Very different interpretation, and I do not own their OCs, only mine.
And you all should check my mutualsā OCs as their story may be very different than what I wrote at the time, even when I try to incorporate their lore.
So yeah, some misinformation may be present to my mutualsā OCs. But still, Iām thankful for them giving me a chance to write them even despite having different interpretations
Still gonna try to make it accurate to the best of my ability
When the storm threw everyone back in time, Kyoko (or Violet, if you prefer) arrived in 1578 alongside her good friend Sasuke (They knew each other from grad school).
She was there when he saved Uesugi Kenshinās life and Kenshin (though he was not thrilled about it) ended up giving her shelter.
A lot happened but thatās not the focus.
What matters right now is that for her, Kasugayama and Echigo became home and it was there that she fell in love with, Akamatsu Ayase, a Uesugi vassal.
Their love was gentle and sweet. Not perfect, definitely not perfect, but it always came around to how much they love one another. Ayase made her laugh and smile in a way no one else could and even Kenshin (though it took a long time) came to find a small joy in the sound of that laughter.
Life in this time period wasnāt easy. Kyoko missed her family and her friends (some of which were now spread across this time period). But when things looked too bleak to bear, he was there. He told jokes and sang and Kyoko adored it all. With his crooked smile and bright eyes, he made it all a little easier. They made a fun pair to be around and the entire castle seemed to agree on that.
By 1580, Kyoko announced she was pregnant with his child. A banquet was thrown. It was a beautiful, happy day.
Kyoko couldnāt stop smiling because things were falling into place.
Her sister, Arundhati, had been found recently and had taken up service officially under Shingen though heād offered her service to his cousin so now she worked both. It didnāt matter to her because it meant Arundhati stayed at Kasugayama with her fiancee Sasuke (they had gotten engaged a month before the wormhole).
And while the world was still a dark place, she had her sister, friends, the love of her life and a darling little one on the way. There was much to figure out still but at that moment, she was content.
In the late summer of 1580, an uprising was noted in one of the Uesugi-Takeda territories. It was not a big battle and eager to fight, Kenshin declared he and his men would go at once.
Kyoko did not ask Ayase to stay and he did not offer to. He had a duty, he wouldnāt sit this out.
Unfortunate, seeing as how he didnāt come back.
ā
Kenshin delivered the news personally.
Why? Because Ayaseās death made him sick. Because he saw himself in Ayaseās love for Kyoko.
Because he ruined it all, didnāt he?
So now Kenshin, who consciously did not interact all that much with her, folded his legs underneath him and told her that her love, the father of her unborn child, was dead.
The scream Kyoko let out seemed to shake the very walls of Kasugayama castle. It tore through the halls, horrific and painful to hear.
Kenshin would never forget it, nor the look in her bloodshot eyes when she looked at him.
ā
A month later, Kyoko gave birth to a healthy baby girl.
She named her Roa. She looked exactly like Ayase. Crooked smile, orangish-red hair and bright brown eyes.
Kyoko held her daughter close and wept until she slept.
ā
Kyoko recovered. She put herself back together one piece at a time, her daughter being her biggest motivation. She was determined to be a good mother, to nurture and protect and love.
For what itās worth, Kyoko is an amazing mother. She loves her daughter more than anything and hopes to raise her to be a strong, capable young woman in a tumultuous world.
ā
Eventually, she would begin to work at Kanetsuguās school as a librarian of sorts and teacher. It was a good distraction and eventually became something she really enjoyed. It helped her move forth.
It was there that she falls in love with Kanetsugu who falls just as hard. He treats Roa like his own without question.
