The Shimada family is one of the two known traditional Sensha-dou family practitioners, the other one being the Nishizumi Family. The Shimada family also is found to be the rivals of the Nishizumi family.

History[]

The Shimada Family is a traditional family in Sensha-do, their fighting style lies around the sensha-dou style of Chiyo Shimada, the current mistress of the Shimada Family, and the sensha-do practitioners of the All-Stars University.

Fighting Styles[]

Their style of sensha-do is based on old ninja tactics, an opposite to the Nishizumi's Germanic origin, emphasizing more of the hit and run assassination with their heavier and stronger equipment taking out stronger opponents. They are also famous for their unpredictability being able to adapt to the situation making their next move impossible to predict

Flaws[]

Although their school never saw defeat until der Film its only possible flaw may be Alice being young, meaning she still has an immature side as seen when she gets distracted by the Boko ride that appears in front of their tank right when she has a open shot to Mihos tank, though this may be remedied as she grows up but by then she may already have graduated college unless she goes for a doctorate.

Family Members[]

Chiyo Shimada[]

Chiyo is the current mistress of the Shimada Family. Like her rival Shiho Nishizumi she is a member of the JSF, and like her rival is the chairperson of the High School League, she is the chairperson of College level Sensha-do.

Alice Shimada[]

Non-family members[]

Shiho Nishizumi[]

The Head of the Nishizumi Style, the Steadfast/Heavy strong Tactics, even though she is not a Shimada and their rivalry is revealed in der Film, she refers to Chiyo as (fellow) Master. Although the nature of their relationship is currently unknown, she is a member of the JSF, serving as the chairperson of the High School Sensha-do. Chiyo and Shiho's relationship is important, as they can't have pro leagues for Sensha-do without having high school sensha-do practitioners to start with.

Trivia[]

  • The fighting style may also be a reference to the UNs fighting style during the Korean War as the North Koreans never knew when the UN would strike back
