(Historical Japanese names are presented here with family names last, as in the English releases of the games.)
A Blu-ray Disc of the anime will also be bundled in the 9,800-yen (about US$98) premium box for the PlayStation 3 game Sengoku Musou 4 (Samurai Warriors 4) when it ships (after a delay) on March 20, 2014. There will also be a 12,800-yen (US$128) "Sengoku Musou 4 Treasure Box" with the game, the anime, an original soundtrack CD, a character design collection, and 15 exclusive postcards. The game's official website had accidentally posted an image that listed an "anime box" on Thursday, but it was removed later in the day.
