    The Nyotengu in Nioh 2 Is the mother of nyotengu of DOA 5.
    Famitsu reveal that.
    Also the dlc of NIOH 2 happen in the year 770 and nyotengu only have 1018 years old, she wasn't even born in that time.

    Looks like another shared universe rabbit-hole and personally i'll just stick with the fatal frame being part the nioh, ninja gaiden, and doa universe because trying to wrap around the canonocity of the games as a single one timeline shared universe can be a huge headache for me so I'll stick with that idea to save myself from it

    yeah the whole timeline of these series are so confusing but the arcade games take place in 1999 and 2000, the modern NG Games Sigma and Sigma 2 are during 2002 and 2003, the nes games are 2003-2004, Dead or alive to dead or alive 4 likely 2004-2005 as well in this timeline theory, making Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor's Edge in 2006 and Dead or Alive 5 & 6 in 2007.
    however this is from youtube channel and their theory, Tecmo Koei and Team Ninja never really explain what year the NG and DOA games take place, Nioh is easier to understand timeline but even then it's confusing but considering it's a fictional take on historical events liberties were taken

It should be noted that during the interview with Producer Kikuchi and Director Shibata in FF3 official guidebook, Shibata confirms that the first three works' protagonists met their resolutions and the series is concluded for now, so they focused on standalone stories. I know Nintendo ordered Shibata to add Miku in FF5, but I wish Shibata didn't pull the egregious retcons and the "Corpse Party" move (kill or put the previous works' protagonists near the death's door, and then introduce the substitutes that are replacements of said (soon-to-be) dead protagonists).

    It's still better than all 3 of DoA/Ninja Gaiden's contradicting timelines! Let us just say stated dates take priority over background ones & there's no sliding timescale. As 2018 was only shown in the background, while focus was put on the 2006 & 1999. Ryu was 21 in 1999, so the Arcade game date might still be canon. He would be 7, but as his opponents were mostly humans the game would be a good mission for Jo, or whoever his sensei was, to test his son's abilities as a ninja. The other ninja being another 7ish year old student. My original thought was Hayate, but he'd've been 4, so even if they train from childhood, like historical ninjas, he'd've just started, unlike Ryu.

      @@alastor-yw7og it's stated on the game that Orochi pulled warriors of many worlds to find someone who could destroy him. You get Ryu and his pink haired pupil as well as some DoA(even an arena with the name of the game on it) characters in Warriors Orochi 3 Ultimate, and once he is defeated you get a cutscene of most of them back to their world thinking the whole thing was a weird dream given how they return to the very moment before being taken away.
      Nioh can loosely be connected given how Oda Nobugana is a recurring character in W-Orochi games, about Fatal Frame don't remember correctly but pretty sure they had at least one character in one of the games but may be wrong.

    • @cestlavie5063
      @cestlavie5063 3 роки тому +3

      Quite possibly. But after our victory over Nightmare Bringer Otakemaru the game makes note on how the swords light fades until the bastard falls into relapse. While it could just be me looking to far into it, I think the immortality power might fade with it. Another possible outcome is that our character does what their father did and put away the weapon once Japan could be considered reasonably unfucked
      Sadly I cannot give any proof. As these are just speculations as to why someone like Hide wouldn't be spotted doing Hide things in the more modern day settings

    Also about DOA/NG. Doa has not a some date/like ninja gaiden, cause all timeline has some details of past ( kasumi/ayne village of heian period for example). Or helena ( european 18 - 19 century) Present - characters like hitomi/tina and others who has 80s/90s vibes. And future - doatec line/clones/ mega corporations, robots, etc...
    Also it has tomonobu itagaki period when story was good. All lines work good. And doa/ng has strong connection in characters. ( Doa ++ - doa ultimate/ ng 1 - ng 2. And games after him. - different period.
    Doa was built on strong cultural archetypes and symbols, but not strong plot line ( it s just different method of presenting the story, who you can see in classical literature and occult texts for example).

    Ninja gaiden shadow it s not a canon, because it s remade version of natsume Shadow of ninja on nes. I think Ryu hayabusa was added because of popularity of Ninja Gaiden and this fact can help to sell game so well.
    It has a A emperor Garuda, which is character from shadow of ninja. First cutscene is also same, only year is different. Shadow of ninja take place in usa of 2029 year. NG Shadow - 1985, but if we look at setting of both games... There s future with robots and drones...
    And if we read some interviews of ninja gaiden devs, they said something like... Natsume and sega games ? Don t know about it. We don t get involved in this games.
    Natsume, or sega games of ninja gaiden it s not a canon.
