Onimusha Dawn of Dreams Cast Overview

The Onimusha Dawn of Dreams cast brings together a large Japanese and English voice ensemble for the game’s feudal supernatural story. The central team includes Hideyasu “Soki” Yuki, Jubei Yagyu Akane, Ohatsu, Roberto Frois, and Nankobo Tenkai. Their performances establish the contrast between disciplined samurai, mystical allies, firearms-based fighters, and spiritually important supporting characters.

The credits distinguish between Japanese-version and English-version performances. That separation matters when comparing character portrayals, because several characters have different credited performers in each language. The cast listing also includes additional voices, narration, motion-capture contributors, and production staff.

Video Highlights:

  • The story follows Soki and his allies against Hideyoshi Toyotomi’s Genma forces.
  • The cast supports a five-character ensemble with contrasting identities and abilities.
  • The production emphasizes a distinct fourth entry rather than a numbered continuation.
  • Character partnerships and switching are central themes in the game’s presentation.

Cast Reading Tip

Start with the five principal playable characters, then expand into supporting and antagonist roles. This makes the large credit list easier to navigate.

Japanese Voice Cast and Character Roles

The Japanese cast gives each major character a distinct vocal identity. Toshiyuki Kusuda is credited as Hideyasu “Soki” Yuki, the samurai at the center of the conflict. Yukana performs Jubei Yagyu Akane, while Sanae Kobayashi voices Ohatsu. Wataru Hatano plays Roberto Frois, and Hideo Ishikawa is credited as Nankobo Tenkai.

The supporting Japanese cast adds historical, supernatural, and political weight. Norio Wakamoto voices Mitsunari Ishida, Keiji Fujiwara voices Munemori Yagyu, and Kenta Miyake voices Sakon Shima. Tôru Ôkawa performs Hideyoshi Toyotomi in the Japanese version, while Yasunori Masutani is credited as the Man in White, identified in the listing as Fortinbras.

Japanese Credit Note

Character names and performer romanizations may appear with different spellings across databases and regional materials. The roles above follow the supplied credit listing.

English Voice Cast Comparison

The English version features a separate group of performers for the principal characters. David Berón voices Soki, Nika Futterman voices Jubei Yagyu Akane, and B.J. Ward voices Ohatsu. Juan Monsalvez performs Roberto Frois, while Josh Keaton is credited for Munenori Yagyu and Nankobo Tenkai.

Several supporting English roles are also identified. Alastair Duncan voices Mitsunari Ishida, Tara Strong voices Arin, and Brianne Brozey voices Minokichi.

The English credits identify Tara Strong as Arin, Alastair Duncan as Mitsunari Ishida, and Brianne Brozey as Minokichi. These roles help fill out the game’s supporting cast without replacing the main five-character focus.

A useful comparison point is the treatment of Tenkai and the Yagyu family. The Japanese listing separates Nankobo Tenkai and Munemori Yagyu between Hideo Ishikawa and Keiji Fujiwara. The English listing credits Josh Keaton with Munenori Yagyu and Nankobo Tenkai. This is a crediting detail worth checking when building character pages or voice-role references.

Role Matching Warning

Do not merge Japanese and English performers into a single credit. Always label the language version when documenting a voice actor.

How to Read the Full Cast Credits

The full credits extend well beyond the named character performers. They include directors, writers, producers, composers, production managers, voice directors, sound specialists, animators, motion-capture staff, programmers, designers, and debugging teams.

Kôichi Kimura is listed as director, while Hiroshi Yamashita is credited for the scenario. Yoshinori Ono is listed as producer, and Keiji Inafune as executive producer. The music credits name Jamie Christopherson and Hideyuki Fukasawa. English voice production includes Kris Zimmerman as voice director, with Elliot Anders credited for voiceover recording and editing-related work.

1

Identify the Language Version

Decide whether the page is documenting Japanese voices, English voices, or both. Keep the two groups in separate columns or sections.

2

Separate Characters from Staff

Place performers under cast, then organize directors, writers, producers, composers, and technical contributors under their own credit categories.

3

Confirm Multi-Role Credits

Check whether one performer is credited with more than one character. Josh Keaton’s Munenori Yagyu and Nankobo Tenkai listing is an important example.

4

Preserve Credit Context

Keep labels such as “Japanese version,” “English version,” “additional voices,” and “uncredited” where they appear in the source.
