Akane Yagyu

Akane 1st appeared in Onimusha: Dawn Of Dreams.

Onimusha
A young woman with exceptional skills who carries on the name of the famous Yagyu bloodline. She bears the power of the Eye of the Oni, rare even among the Yagyu clan. Prior to the beginning of the game itself, Akane is assigned the duty of hunting down her relative, Munenori Yagyu. Munenori's heinous acts in betraying and killing members of the clan are the reason Akane accepts the task, relentlessly seeking to capture or kill her kinsman. Both Munenori and Akane (near the end of the game) are depicted wearing eye patches to cover their demon eye. This is likely a reference to the widespread image of the historical Mitsuyoshi Yagyu: as wearing an eyepatch. Akane's swift, iaijutsu-like style of attack is similar to that of Kaede: from Onimusha: Warlords. At one point in the game, Akane is confused as to whether she is romantically interested in Sōki, or he is just her elder 'brother'. Shikomizue swordsticks are her main weapons.
