Celibate Heroine: Very aware of Galford's crush, but is adamant into never getting into a relationship since her mission is her priority.
Killing Nakoruru with certain attacks will decapitate her, slice her in half, impale her in the crotch or disembowel her, among other things.
Brutally averted thereafter, where she (and the other female characters) are susceptible to fatal attacks. Beauty Is Never Tarnished: Played straight till V Special, where she was immune to fatalities. The Beast Master: Mamahaha and Shikuru. You Gotta Have Blue Hair: For one: blue hair should be nonexistent in feudal Japan, they haven't gotten the necessary materials. Star-Crossed Lovers: With Kei, oh booooooy. Yamato Nadeshiko: His preference of women, which his lady-in-liege Kei Odagiri happens to be. Warrior Poet: The only two languages Ukyo speaks are Visible Silence and Haiku. Victory Is Boring: "The moment I drew my sword, the fight was over. Sword Beam: The ground based projectile used by his Bust/Rasetsu incarnations is this. The Stoic: If there's someone who'd let out Visible Silence so often, it's him. He even got Kojirou's Tsubame Gaeshi as his move. Shout-Out: If Haohmaru is Miyamoto Musashi, Ukyo is Sasaki Kojirou. Reverse Grip: Started using it in the third game, usually for his most damaging normal attacks and a couple specials. More exactly, his relationship with Kei Odagiri. I Want My Beloved to Be Happy: Most of his fighting purposes. Ill Boy: Incurable Cough of Death included. Iaijutsu Practitioner: His fighting style, which also compliments his Badass Back stance. Diagonal Cut: His Fatality, which is also ludicrously fast. When Genjuro comes in, everything went downhill as eventually he is never very relevant to the plot again and reduced into something of a Cannon Fodder for Haohmaru (see Haohmaru's ending in Samurai Shodown IV). In the first game, he was Haohmaru's true rival. Chick Magnet: In almost all games, Ukyo escapes off the screen when a lot of screaming girls chase after him, all of them are also Yamato Nadeshiko as his beloved kei. Bishonen: He has a beautiful, feminine-like face, complimented with his slender frame and long blue hair. Badass Back: He usually faces backwards when fighting, but if you ever see him face forward. Yamato Nadeshiko: His preference on women, which Oshizu happens to be. Some arcade stickers include the romanization "Haōmaru". To call it "awesome" would be an understatement. Rule of Cool: One of his winposes has him throw his sword upwards, spin its sheath as the sword accurately enters the sheath back. Red Oni, Blue Oni: He is the Red, while Genjuro is the Blue. Granted, Haohmaru isn't THAT huge, but not only his hair is huge, but both girls are tiny. SAMURAI SHODOWN 4 CAPACITY SERIES
Huge Guy, Tiny Girl: With Oshizu, or sometimes Nakoruru when they're paired off in series covers.He actually lampshades it in his ending in the second game, where he and Oshizu kiss as he mentally apologizes to her.
Duty First, Love Second: He's dedicated entirely to fighting, as Shizu and later Charlotte came to learn. Brainwashed and Crazy: In Samurai Shodown 64 by Yuga. 
Boisterous Bruiser: A more idealistic version, as well as one of the rare main charas who follow the trope.Blow You Away: His traditional Fireball, which sends out a compact spinning tornado which throws opponents high into the air on contact.Blood Knight: A slight variation in that Haohmaru is fueled not by sadism, but by the sheer thrill of a good fight.Capcom, he's even paired with Street Fighter's Zangief. The Big Guy: Crossovers tends to portray him as this, being someone who is slow in combos, but deals massive damage.Big Brother Instinct: Usually in the backstories of other characters that he will hardly interact with outside of endings (i.e.Anime Hair: And how! It even gets bigger every game."Alcoholic" is even the title of his Samurai Shodown III theme.From Samurai Shodown II on, one of his specials involves whacking you with it too! The Alcoholic: You never see him in a game without a jug of sake.Tropes exhibited by this character include: 11 From Nakoruru: Ano Hito kara no Okurimono.10 Debuting in Samurai Shodown Edge of Destiny.9 Debuting in Samurai Shodown Tenkaichi Kenkakyuuden.7 Debuting in Samurai Shodown: Warriors Rage (PS 1).
