Date Masamune

Date Masamune is a main supporting character in Battle Girls Time Paradox. In the modern world, she is a teacher (known as Date-sensei by her students) and a descendant of the true Date Masamune. Date, (whose given name is unknown) in the first episode is transported to an only female populated land resembling the Warring States era, through her Mobile Phone, where she takes up the name of her ancestor.

Role
Date Masamune is really Date-sensei, Hideyoshi's school teacher from the modern world after she received mysterious text messages on her phone and finding an ancient scroll in her home, she was transported to the Warring States era, accidentally and almost by a chance bringing along her school student, Hideyoshi (whom she calls Hide-san). It was revealed that she was the woman who was handling the blue aura at the temple shrine in the first episode. In the fifth episode, she tells the other warriors about telling A Hundred Stories in order to escape from the forest safely. In episode 10, she confronts Mitsuhide with Sake to kill Nobunaga, and tells her to burn the Honnouji Residence (the place where Nobunaga, Mitsuhide and Hideyoshi were currently lodging at that time) and steals the Crimson Armour from Oda Nobunaga, after distracting the main protagonists. Date Masamune's true identity was not recognised until the tenth episode of the series when Hideyoshi discovered that she had a true resemblance to her school teacher, when Date saved her life, from a fire. Date, takes the Crimson Armour, but is stopped by Tokugawa Ieyasu, who attacks Date and steals the Armour from her, after Tokugawa is defeated and the armour removed from her, Date tries to take the Armour again, but is stopped by Oda Nobunaga, who destroys it, calling it 'unneeded'.

Date reveals her true identity to Hideyoshi, as her school teacher, and the two return to the modern world, after they receive a farewell from Oda Nobunaga and Akechi Mitsuhide
