Character[]

Personality[]

Somewhat boyish (nowhere near Gien's level), Bachou usually acts cool and laid-back. However, she's very sensitive about topics regarding love; similar to Kan'u, she suffers from a complex where she lack confidence in her own appeals as a woman. This results in her having little to no tolerance towards anything perverted. Kazuto takes advantage of this and often teases her by putting her in embarrassing and sometimes perverted situations, during which she become greatly flustered to the point of not being able to talk without stuttering heavily. Sometimes the pranks get overboard and she becomes a tsundere, calling Kazuto "baka" with a lot of hitting. Outside Kazuto's teasing she also gets embarrassed easily when presented to more feminine topics or when given compliments regarding her sex appeal.
Though not as simple-minded and naive as Chouhi, Bachou certainly won't rank top among the girls in terms of intelligence. She is headstrong, and tend to rely on brute force in dealing with problems. This is a fact which herself acknowledges, and she prefers physical work over anything that involves mental effort. However this doesn't stop her from being a valuable member of the group; she is fiercely loyal to her friends and her duties.

Sexuality[]

Due to her complex, it was difficult at first for Kazuto to get a relationship started with her. As a result, Kazuto's advances towards her is somewhat more forceful, with much coercing and teasing. Despite denying it many times, it's very obvious that she is deeply in love with Kazuto. 

Skills and Abilities[]

Spearsmanship: Having trained from a young age, Bachou is very proficient with her jumonji yari, which is well-designed for both slashing and stabbing. In the anime, Bachou is shown to be able to easily hold her own against Chouhi despite the latter being known her exceptional strength in the use of her spear.

Enhanced Physical Prowess: Her strength, speed, reflexes, and stamina are beyond ordinary soldiers. On the battlefield her spear technique is further augmented by her strength and quickness. Together with Chouhi it's very common to see the sky being filled with enemy soldiers who are unfortunate enough to get hit by their blows.

Leadership Skills: She is a capable general, her bravery and heroics play a major role in leading her cavalry forces.

Horsemanship: She is arguably the best horse-rider in the series. Ryoushuu is famous for its cavalry units and her family is closely affiliated with horses.

Insight: In the anime she is able to read the aura of her opponents. By doing so, she can measure their strength and honesty.
