Ashikaga Yoshiteru is a new non-playable character featured in Sengoku BASARA 4. The 13th Ashikaga shogun who longs for heated battles. He relinquishes the shogun rule back to the heavens, which in turn causes the Sengoku Genesis.

Yoshiteru is, for the former shogun of the country, surprisingly hot-blooded. Besides wanting to put the next generation of warriors to the test and see if they're worthy of taking his place, Yoshiteru also sparked off the Sengoku Genesis out of boredom - being a battle-loving man who is undefeated by the events of 4, he wished to find someone who was capable of giving him a challenge. On top of being incredbly strong, Yoshiteru is also a genius who is capable of outsmarting the likes of even Motonari . He can read the thoughts and feelings of everyone he comes across by just looking at them, which can unnerve many who encounter him. He's proven to be a kind and very respectful person, referring to everyone he meets as 'comrade', even if he only gets hostility in return. It is because of these qualities that there are those who wish to serve him, whether it is because they believe he is what the country needs (such as Kenshin) or because he's simply a very interesting individual (in the case of Hisahide).

Despite being a god-like existence in the series, Yoshiteru has a deep-seated feeling of isolation because of his position as the shogun, believing that all it is is a title that he was born with and, in the end, he's just a human like any other commoner. Being raised as royalty, he doesn't know much about how commoners live, but he makes an effort to try and learn himself.
