The character nihongo|Asura|アスラ|Asura, or Asra, is the main protagonist in the game "". Like other characters in the same game, his "Bust" form is considered to be a separate character from himself and plays a different role in the series.

He is a being who has a long-standing conflict with Yuga the Destroyer, who wreaks havoc in order to bring about "the unification of this world and the Netherworld". Yuga imprisoned Asura in the Netherworld and he subsequently escapes when it is defeated during the events of "Samurai Shodown 64".cite web | author=SNK Playmore | title="Samurai Shodown 64 Warrior's Rage" Character Profiles | url=http://samuraianiv.snkplaymore.co.jp/english/title/samurai-shodown6/character.php | work= [http://samuraianiv.snkplaymore.co.jp/english/index.html Samurai Shodown Official Website] | accessmonthday=December 12 | accessyear=2007] When he confronts Yuga, his clone assists him in slaying the fiend (see below).

nihongo|Shadow Asura|反面のアスラ|Hanmen no Asura is the "Bust" form of Asura. He is a clone of Asura created by Yuga using a forbidden technique. For some time during the plot of "Samurai Shodown 64", this clone was completely loyal to Yuga but wavered when he realizes his affections for Shiki. He comes to love Shiki and wants to save her from her former master. Subsequently, he and his original band together and kill Yuga. However, upon Yuga's defeat, he begins to deteriorate because Yuga's magic is what kept him alive. For the sake of his clone, the two Asuras merge together and turn into one unique being. Before he merges with his original, Shiki gives birth to their child.cite web | author=SNK Playmore | title=Samurai Spirits Genalogy | url=http://samurai-zero.jp/keif.html | work= [http://samurai-zero.jp/ "Samurai Shodown V" Official Website] | accessmonthday=January 16 | accessyear=2008 | language=Japanese]

In ', nihongo|Yuda"'|幽堕|Yuda is the product of Asura merging with Shadow Asura. The consequences of their fusion results in an unstable body with no memory from either Asuras' previous lives. Yuda is assigned to a section of the shogunate linked to the Three Blades of Ritenkyo. He is secretly promised the position of shogun if Oboro (Jigen Taishi) succeeds. If the plan fails, Yuda would be used as the political scapegoat to destroy evidence of Oboro's plot. His first mission is clearing out Ritenkyo. In his ending, he encounters his daughter, Mikoto, who has been used by Oboro for his fiendish purposes. The dormant part of both Asuras revive themselves instinctively and Yuda releases the evil within Mikoto (revealed to be Yuga). Yuda returns to the Demon World, meaning to keep Yuga sealed there for eternity.

Asura also appears in "Samurai Shodown! 2" for the Neo Geo Pocket Color. He makes an outside series appearance in "Neo Geo Battle Coliseum".cite web | author=SNK Playmore | url=http://game.snkplaymore.co.jp/official/nbc/character/index.html | title="Neo Geo Battle Coliseum" Character Profiles | work= [http://www.snkplaymore.co.jp/ SNK Playmore Official Homepage] | accessmonthday= December 12 | accessyear=2007 | language=Japanese]

He is the leader to his own band of brigrands that travel across Japan. Although feared throughout the countryside, he is kind-hearted and deeply honors his comrades. Because of a scheme made by the "Three Blades of Domination", he was imprisoned by the shogunate. He breaks out but all of his followers were killed by Tohma -except one, Chobisuke. Enraged, Garyo and his sole comrade go to "Ritenkyo" for two reasons: to get revenge for his band and to steal away "his bride", Mikoto, from Tohma's clutches.

In his ending, he defeats Tohma but hides from Mikoto. After seeing her genuine love for Tohma, he resigns his original intentions and leaves. To compensate for his decision, he steals Tohma's horse and a donkey for Chobisuke.

Garyo uses a dagger fashioned from steel, which he rarely unsheathes, preferring to use combo attacks that make the most of his speed. When he does draw his sword, he takes hold of the sheath with his mouth. He also blows a bamboo sheath to fire blow darts. Although he appears to be one armed, he actually keeps his left arm within his yukata as a sign of status.

Because of their cruelty, he has a liking to the color red that develops to the point of obsession. After his partner, Yaci, leaves the crime syndicate, Haito is offered a chance to go to a "free land to the East" (America). Knowing that the Razor Trio will block his way, he goes to defeat them.

Tohma envied him -as he was their father's son by blood- and killed their father in a jealous rage. His brother left with one of their father's prized swords, Kohroh. Years after his father's death, he receives secret orders to infiltrate Ritenkyo and annihilate the rebellious Razor Trio. Hearing that Tohma is one of their leaders, he departs with one of his father's friends, Jin-emon Hanafusa taking the missing blade's counterpart, Sei-oh, in hand.

nihongo|Tohma Kuki|九鬼 刀馬|Kuki Tōma is a character who appears only in "".

He is an albino orphan who had come aboard a ship from the west (Europe). He was the adopted son of the great samurai legend, the fantastic "Kuki", and in order to live up to his heritage, Tohma trained everyday since he young in order to become a true samurai one day. Since their father seemed to favor Seishiro more than him, Tohma became embittered and envious of his brother. One night, Tohma killed his father and stole the sword, Koryo, from him; a sword that was said to grant incredible strength to its owner. Later, he joined Mikoto and Oboro to create the Razor Trio as the "mightiest swordsman". Arrogant with power, he sets his sights on Seishiro's sword.

As with Seishiro's ending, Tohma loses his fight against Seishiro. He awakes in Riten Kyo three days later with Mikoto beside him. She relays Seishiro's messages to him: his brother forgave him and wants Tohma to live. Tohma recognizes Mikoto's love for him and admits a third blade that is more powerful than the two Seishiro has, which is Mikoto. He leaps from the castle's balcony, promising to return as a "better blade" for both Seishiro and Mikoto. It is implied that his leap is a suicide attempt but, because of the ambiguous wording of the script, he may have also survived the fall ala Geese Howard fashion.

She uses her heavenly powers to conduct religious services and rituals in which she was revered as a religious symbol (shrine maiden).

The freed Mikoto (or "Angel" Mikoto) is encouraged by her parents' spirits to continue living, for their sake and hers.

He wants to assume the will of his benefactor and establish a new nation for the martial deity. He also hopes to avenge his disgrace caused by Hanzo.

Oboro uses the cursed armaments of the bewitching blade and magic sword controlled by various spirits created through the ever-changing "Magical Arts of Kakkyo." Because Oboro is at one with the demons, this sorcerer may be injured whenever one of his demons is wounded, even if he is not in the general vicinity.

nihongo|Jushiro Sakaki|榊 銃士浪|Sakaki Jūshirō is a character who appears only in "".

He is a former samurai that was once part of the bakufu government. During his service as a government samurai, he was mentored by Kuki and made friends with Hanafusa Jin-Emon. He fell in love with a woman samurai named Karen. The feelings were mutual but formalities and duties discouraged them from developing their affections further.

One day, it was predicted by spies that the princess was endangered by an assassination attempt by Oboro. As she bore a striking resemblance to the princess, Karen volunteered herself to be the decoy princess to lure Oboro in. In spite of Jushiro's protests, the coup was staged. Oboro attacked but his strength was overwhelming and he preceded to kill everyone at the site, including the "princess" Karen. Jushiro, who arrived at the scene too late to assist, was targeted as the main suspect of the massacre by the bakufu, earning his disgust and desertion of his samurai class.

He escapes from his pursuers to Riten Kyo where he joins with female warriors Saya and Rinka to form the "Atom Rebels", an anti-Bakufu group. In his ending, he defeats Jin-emon in a duel and spares his life.

She is a foreigner from an unknown country, trained by her stepmother in Ritenkyo in the ways of assassin. She joins as a member to the "Atom Rebels", a faction which seeks independence from both the Bakufu government and the iron reign of the Razor Trio, seeking to avenge the death of her family.

After the fall of the Razor Trio, Saya is confronted by a female ninja who claims to be a member of the Razor Trio called Benten, who is intent on finishing her mission of killing Saya's family. They fight one another with Saya emerging victorious. Benten reveals herself to be Saya's stepmother, who was also ordered by Oboro to assassinate Saya's family. However, she lost her husband during the mission, and started to question the motives behind the Razor Trio's ambitions. Benten urges Saya to kill her to complete her revenge. Instead, Saya spares her and decides to care for the rest of the orphans who inhabit Riten Kyo, leaving a proud Benten behind.

nihongo|Yuga the Destroyer|壊帝ユガ|Kaitei Yuga, often referred to as the "mysterious puppeteer", is the apparently genderless main antagonist for the "Samurai Shodown 64" iterations of the series.

Its existence is veiled in mystery. It is a powerful sorcerer who originates from the Demon World. It wishes to become a god of destruction and rule the world. Knowing it would require many followers, it concocts an elaborate plan. Twenty years before Amakusa's revival, it enters the human realm and steals various babies from their mothers' wombs. Using its powers, it bestows fantastical powers upon them and waits for them to mature their superhuman strength and paranormal abilities. When they reach adulthood, it appears before all of them, brainwashing them by performing a magical puppet show and effectively creates a powerful and obedient army of warriors. Along with these braindead individuals, Yuga obtains Shiki.

Yuga, seeking Shiki's male counterpart, chooses Haohmaru to fulfill the requirements for a perfect resurrection. As a back-up plan, it creates the puppets nihongo|Deku|木偶♂|Deku Osu and nihongo|Dekuina|木偶♀|Deku Mesu ("Deku" being Japanese for "wooden doll" or "puppet") as experimental samples for the same ritual. Modeled on Haohmaru and Shiki, Yuga gives them strength from the Netherworld to make them exceptionally strong. [http://samuraianiv.snkplaymore.co.jp/english/title/samurai-shodown5/character.php "Samurai Shodown 64" character profiles] , SNK Playmore's official "Samurai Shodown 64" website] Yuga also creates nihongo|Gandara|巖陀羅, a monstrous and sturdy puppet-servant composed of remnants from thousands of different corpses, as its personal guardian. However, as it attempts to place her plans into motion, it is engaged by Haohmaru and Shiki, who destroy Yuga in the body chastely created by Deku and Dekuina. Despite Gandara's overwhelming strength, it is also destroyed by the Kazama brothers, Sogetsu and Kazuki.cite web | author=SNK Playmore | title=Samurai Spirits Genalogy | url=http://samurai-zero.jp/keif.html | work= [http://samurai-zero.jp/ "Samurai Shodown V" Official Website] | accessmonthday=January 16 | accessyear=2008]

However, Yuga apparently anticipated its defeat. It subsequently resurrects itself and Gandara, and continues its plans, making a clone of Asura in the process. It sends this doppelgänger to retrieve the freed Shiki, but he develops feelings for her instead. Taking this into account, the two Asuras both engage Yuga, destroying its body for good along with Gandara.cite web | author=SNK Playmore | title=Samurai Spirits Genalogy | url=http://samurai-zero.jp/keif.html | work= [http://samurai-zero.jp/ "Samurai Shodown V" Official Website] | accessmonthday=January 16 | accessyear=2008] In a desperate attempt to remain in the mortal realm, it possesses Shiki and Asura's child, Mikoto. It lives as the "Devil" side of Mikoto's power as a "dark presence". It almost succeeds in gaining complete control of Mikoto's body but Yuda, the product of the two Asuras' merge, destroys its spirit before the deed is done.

Yuga is the last boss of "Samurai Shodown 64", ', and "Samurai Shodown! 2" (and is also a secret character in this game). Gandara is never playable but appears in "Samurai Shodown 64", ', and "Samurai Shodown! 2" as the game's sub boss. Deku and Dekina are never playable and are sub bosses only in "Samurai Shodown 64".
