Okita Souji

Okita Souji was the captain of the first unit of the Shinsengumi, a public order organization that was mostly active in the Kyoto of the Edo period closing days. Even among the Shinsengumi, which was feared as a band of master swordsmen, the one admired as the strongest genius swordsman was Okita.

Okita Sōji was the captain of the first division of the Shinsengumi, a special samurai police force that maintained order in Kyoto during the final years of the Edo period. He was born around 1842 in Edo (modern-day Tokyo) and showed exceptional talent in swordsmanship from a young age. He trained in the Tennen Rishin-ryū school and became one of the top students of Kondō Isami, the leader of the Shinsengumi. Known for his speed and precision, Okita was considered one of the strongest swordsmen in the group. He led the first division, which was often assigned the most dangerous missions, including suppressing anti-shogunate groups during a time of political unrest. Despite his fearsome reputation in battle, he was often described as having a calm and somewhat easygoing personality in daily life. One of the techniques associated with him is the “Sandanzuki,” a rapid three-thrust attack, though its exact historical accuracy is debated and may be partly legendary. Behind his strength, Okita struggled with poor health. He suffered from tuberculosis, a serious and often fatal disease at the time, which gradually weakened him during the turbulent period leading up to the Meiji Restoration. Okita Sōji died in 1868 at a young age, likely in his mid-20s, before witnessing Japan’s transition into the modern era. Today, he is remembered as a talented yet tragic figure—a symbol of youthful skill, loyalty, and the fleeting nature of the samurai age.

Okita Souji is female in history. A girl in her mid-teens, who wraps her body in fashionable Japanese clothing. In order to conceal her original costume, which is simply too conspicuous, Okita normally uses this outfit, wearing a Taisho-style Kimono that consists of a Hakama and long leather boots.

In the world of Fate/type Redline, Okita is considerably more ruthless and pragmatic, and described as empty by Assassin. Summoned during a Holy Grail War and during WW2, her primary goal is achieving victory for her Master, Kanata, and claims herself as his sword. While she shows a friendly and caring side towards him, she holds all others around him as those who need to be left behind or eliminated.

Okita's wish for the Holy Grail is "to fight to the bitter end." Her dearest wish from while alive, which ended not being achieved no matter how much she wanted to. Even now, after having turned into a Heroic Spirit, she is regretting not having fought to the end together with her comrades and has a wrong impression of herself as a failure of the Shinsengumi's soldiers.

Okita Souji (沖田総司)

The King of Innovation and legendary warlord of the Sengoku and Azuchi-Momoyama Period of Japan, and older sister of Oda Nobukatsu. Her moniker "Devil King of the Sixth Heaven" (第六天魔王, Dairokutenmaō?) was based on the severe acts of destruction carried out during her campaign.

Oda Nobunaga was one of the most powerful daimyō of the Sengoku period and a key figure in the unification of Japan. He was born in 1534 in Owari Province and rose to prominence through a combination of military skill, strategic thinking, and bold leadership. At a time when Japan was divided by constant warfare, Nobunaga began the process of consolidating power by defeating rival clans and expanding his influence across central Japan. He is especially known for his innovative use of firearms in battle, most famously at the Battle of Nagashino, where his tactics helped change the nature of Japanese warfare. Nobunaga also supported economic development by promoting free markets and weakening the power of traditional institutions such as Buddhist warrior monks, whom he saw as political threats. Despite his achievements, Nobunaga was often described as ruthless and uncompromising. His ambition and methods earned him both fear and respect. His life came to a sudden end in 1582 during the Honnō-ji Incident, when he was betrayed by one of his own generals, Akechi Mitsuhide. Surrounded at Honnō-ji temple in Kyoto, Nobunaga was forced to commit suicide. Although he did not complete the unification of Japan himself, his efforts laid the foundation for successors like Toyotomi Hideyoshi and Tokugawa Ieyasu, who eventually brought the country under a single rule. Today, Oda Nobunaga is remembered as a visionary yet controversial leader who played a crucial role in shaping early modern Japan.

Her clothing that looks like a military uniform is something she prepared herself out of hobby upon being summoned as a Servant. In Fate/type Redline it was revealed that those clothes came from the Imperial Japanese Army and that she was usually summoned naked.

Haughty and self-confident, she possesses a flexible way of thinking that loves new things and is not bound by conservatism and common sense. Nobunaga had worked vigorously towards the unification of the country, but her end came from the insurrection of a vassal. She shows no regret about that in itself, saying it was "something that couldn't be helped". Does not particularly have a wish for the Holy Grail, but it is very likely that, due to her tendency for unusual ideas, she may use the Holy Grail itself to make some sort of mess. In Fate/type Redline, she is shown to be just as ruthless as in life, but also as fascinated with technology as ever.

Okada Izou

Okada Izou was of the four great manslayers of the shogunate's closing days, holding the alias of 'Manslayer Izou (人斬り以蔵, Hitokiri Izou)'. The Onoha Ittou Style, the Kyoushin Meichiri Style, the Jikishi Style and such, he learned various styles of swordplay. Involved with numerous assassinations, he was imprisoned and executed for his crimes

Okada Izou was a samurai and assassin active during the final years of the Edo period, a time of intense political conflict in Japan. He was born in 1838 in Tosa Domain (present-day Kōchi Prefecture) and came from a relatively low-ranking samurai background. Despite his status, he became known for his exceptional swordsmanship and was trained under the guidance of Takechi Hanpeita, a key figure in the sonnō jōi (“Revere the Emperor, expel the barbarians”) movement. Izō gained notoriety as one of the “Hitokiri” (manslayers), a group of elite assassins who carried out political killings against supporters of the Tokugawa shogunate. He was feared for his efficiency and brutality, often targeting officials and individuals seen as enemies of the imperial cause. His actions made him both a weapon for political change and a symbol of the violent instability of the Bakumatsu period. However, his life took a tragic turn as political tides shifted. After his mentor lost power, Izou was captured by authorities and subjected to harsh interrogation and torture. Under pressure, he confessed to multiple assassinations. In 1865, he was executed by beheading at the age of 27. Today, Okada Izou is remembered as a complex and tragic figure—both a skilled swordsman and a victim of the turbulent era in which he lived. His life reflects the darker side of the transition from feudal Japan to the modern state.

A young man in his mid-twenties with dark eyes. He wears a large coat.

Overly boastful of his own abilities, he has a tendency to look down on all other swordsmen, but reputed as 'One with the sword, swift and nimble as a falcon,' his sword arm was the genuine work of a genius. He’s extremely fond of sake and gambling, and has a rough and hasty personality. He looks down on people for his genius with the sword, and hates greatly being made light of. He intensely detests Ryōma, but that part is like the inversion of a friendship of bygone days. He has a heavy grudge against Ryoma after he betrayed him when he was alive and swore to get revenge on him when they meet again as Servants and kill him. If you get on with him he surprisingly feels like a nice guy, but perhaps because he’s violent and not smart, he’s the type that is used as people please.

Okada Izou (岡田以蔵)

Sakamoto Ryouma was driving force behind the Satsuma and Choshu allianceWP, founder of the Kameyama Shochu (Later the Kaientai), and one of the patriots who worked towards the restoration of Imperial Rule and contributed greatly to the Meiji Restoration. His partner Oryou-san is not that historical individual, but a certain something that was sealed and bound to a certain mountain. In his youthful indiscretion, Ryouma pulled out the spear that bound her and released her unto the world.

Sakamoto Ryōma was a samurai from Tosa Domain, born in 1836, who became one of the most influential figures in Japan’s transition from feudal rule to a modern state. Unlike many samurai of his time, Ryōma rejected rigid class boundaries and worked toward a more open and unified Japan. He played a crucial role in forming the Satsuma-Chōshū Alliance, which helped overthrow the Tokugawa shogunate and paved the way for the Meiji Restoration. Rather than relying purely on violence, he emphasized negotiation, modernization, and the adoption of Western technology. Ryōma is often remembered as a visionary who helped design a new political system for Japan, including ideas for a national assembly and a more democratic government structure. He was also involved in maritime trade and founded one of Japan’s early private naval organizations, showing his forward-thinking approach to both politics and economics. Accompanying him in his life was Oryō (Narahara Ryō), who is often considered one of the first modern Japanese women to actively support her husband in both personal and political matters. She worked at a teradaya inn in Kyoto, where she famously saved Ryōma’s life by warning him of an impending attack by shogunate forces. This incident has become one of the most well-known stories about their relationship. Their partnership is also remembered for what is sometimes described as Japan’s first “honeymoon,” when they traveled together to Kagoshima for rest and recovery after the incident. This detail, while romanticized, highlights the unique and progressive nature of their relationship compared to typical norms of the time. Despite his achievements, Ryōma’s life was cut short in 1867 when he was assassinated at the age of 31 in Kyoto. His killers remain uncertain, adding a layer of mystery to his legacy. Today, Sakamoto Ryōma is celebrated as a symbol of change and modernization, while Oryō is remembered as a courageous and supportive partner who played a quiet but meaningful role in his life.

Rider appears to be an aloof young man in his mid-twenties, with long hair tied back by a blue ribbon. He adorns a white suit with gold buttons and shoulder pads, and a matching hat with a blue band. At his side, he carries a katana (Mutsunokami Yoshiyuki) in western style and a Smith&Wesson No.2 Army Revolver. A mysterious beautiful woman is always by his side.

While a master of the Hokushin Ittou style of swordplay, he was a soft soul who disliked conflict by nature. Sakamoto Ryouma, the Hero of the Restoration. An aloof man on his mid-20s. He may be a master of the Hokushin Ittouryuu, but he’s actually a kindhearted guy who dislikes conflict to his very core. In a Holy Grail War set in Japan, he would be a powerful Servant with a unique type of Riding Noble Phantasm and fame levels that rival Oda Nobunaga.

Nicknamed Demon Musashi (鬼武蔵, Oni Musashi?). A warrior from the Warring States Period, the son of Mori Yoshinari from the Oda clan, and the elder brother of the famous Mori Naritoshi (Ranmaru) who served as Nobunaga's attendant. A brave warrior who's earned the nickname "Oni Musashi" for his many military exploits and the spearmanship that was taught to him by his father who was famed as "Sanza the Attacker”.

Mori Nagayoshi was a samurai commander during the Sengoku period, born in 1558 as the son of Mori Yoshinari, a loyal retainer of Oda Nobunaga. After his father was killed in battle, Nagayoshi inherited leadership of the Mori clan and served Nobunaga as one of his military commanders. He became known for his fierce loyalty and outstanding ability on the battlefield. Nagayoshi earned a fearsome reputation because of his brutal and aggressive fighting style. He was known for attacking enemies relentlessly and was feared by both opponents and allies. Because of this violent reputation, he was sometimes referred to as **“Oni Musha”** or “the demon warrior.” His harsh methods reflected the brutal nature of the Sengoku era, when constant warfare demanded strength and ruthlessness from military leaders. He fought in several important campaigns under Nobunaga and later served Toyotomi Hideyoshi after Nobunaga’s death. Despite his effectiveness as a warrior, his violent temperament made him a controversial figure. Historical accounts often portray him as courageous but merciless, embodying the harsh reality of samurai warfare during the age of civil war. Mori Nagayoshi died in 1584 during the Battle of Komaki and Nagakute at only 27 years old. Even though his life was short, he left behind a strong image as one of the fiercest warriors of his time. Today, he is remembered as a symbol of the extreme bravery and brutality that characterized the Sengoku period.

Mori is a large man, towering over every other character in the story. Appearing in a technologically advanced suit of tan and red armor provided by the military, it has several distinct features, most notably several thick cables hanging from the upper back and a large, bucket-like helmet that completely encases his head, six horizontal slits aligned in two vertical columns serving as his means of seeing out. Beneath the armor, he wears a suit of deep green. After losing his helmet, it is revealed that he is a fairly young looking man with spiky crimson hair swept backwards, his fringe normally hanging in front of one of his eyes.

Mori Nagayoshi was known for having a very violent temper and ruthless behavior in combat, leading to his nickname. Decapitating 27 by himself in his first battle, he painted the lower half of his armour pure red with the spilt blood of his fallen foes in the Battle of Takato during the Kōshū Conquest.

Fate/Type Redline

The setting of the story is not directly connected to any other Fate work. Kanata Akagi is a boy from a declining magus family who decided not to pursue magecraft and live a normal life instead. His friend gives him a light novel that claims an explosion that devastated the Imperial Capital of Tokyo 75 years ago was caused by a battle between supernatural beings. While going through his late grandmother's belongings, he accidentally activates an hourglass that sends him 75 years into the past. While seeing characters and events that reflect the light novel, he has no idea what a Holy Grail War or Servants are and is out of his depth when he accidentally summons Saber.

Holy Grail

Holy Grails (聖杯ホーリーグレイル, SeihaiHōrīgureiru) are wish-granters using the foundation of the Christian holy relic that received the blood of Christ. There have been many artifacts claimed to be the genuine article, at least 726 of which were investigated by the Holy Church, and many conflicts for such artifacts have happened around the world throughout history.The name is utilized in the various Holy Grail Wars as the name of an artifact purportedly capable of granting any wish to whomever comes to claim it, rather than the real artifact, though the Church often gets involved simply because of that reason. Its advent is the ultimate goal of the various Holy Grail Wars.

Oda Nobukatsu

Oda Nobukatsu was the younger brother of Oda Nobunaga. Unlike Nobunaga who was known as 'the Fool of Owari', Nobukatsu was known for his intelligence even from a young age, and was very loved by their mother Dota Gozen. It was expected that Nobukatsu would be the one to inherit the duty of leading the Oda house as its head.

Oryou-san

Oryou is the humanoid form of Rider Ryouma's Noble Phantasm, Like a Soaring Dragon. The black-haired woman who follows by Ryouma's side, Oryou. Falling in love at first sight with Ryouma when he saved her from her seal on a certain mountain, a fine lady who stalks Ryouma with the excuse of repaying the favor. Strictly speaking, she is not a dragon, but a lesser specter more closely related to snakes and serpents. She's based on Sakamoto Ryouma's actual wife, as to the Dragon thing they incorporated a legend of a dragon sealed on a mountaintop near Tosa by a spear (the one that Lancer Ryouma wields) as that dragon being Oryou, and the one who unsealed her was Ryouma. Sidenote, it's also kinda amusing because both Oryou and Ryouma have dragon themed names.
