*Daidōji's outfits are similar to the delinquents of Japanese middle and high schools. Her Ninja Turnover outfit is a tattered ''gakuran'' (学ラン, male uniform), evoking the stereotypical ''banchou'' (番長, "schoolyard gang leader") look, which originated in the '70s and involved shredding one's uniform and wearing it casually to rebel against oppressive discipline and strict dressing codes. Other typical elements are the sarashi worn on an otherwise bare upper half, old-fashioned geta and makeshift rope belt. Her normal appearance resembles the ''sukeban'' (スケ番, "female delinquent") look, namely the long blond hair (sukeban would often dye and/or perm them) and ankle-length skirt, contrary to the standard knee-length skirt. |

Revision as of 20:43, 1 June 2016
Daidōji (大道寺) is a playable character of the Senran Kagura series. She makes her debut in Senran Kagura: Portrait of Girls.
Background
A legendary senior who returns to Hanzou every year during the graduation period. In the past, she was Rin's underclassman, and the two would spar together regularly. Master Kiriya noted that while Daidōji was stronger than Rin, she was unable to beat her senior due to Rin's unyielding nature.
Daidōji swore that she would one day make Rin admit defeat, but the chance never came. Shortly after Rin graduated, it was reported that she died while on a mission. The news devastated Kiriya, but Daidōji somehow knew that Rin was alive somewhere. She now patiently bides her time in anticipation of her final rematch with her senior; the fateful day that will be her true graduation exam.

Trivia
- Daidōji's name literally means "Large Temple Road".
- Daidōji's outfits are similar to the delinquents of Japanese middle and high schools. Her Ninja Turnover outfit is a tattered gakuran (学ラン, male uniform), evoking the stereotypical banchou (番長, "schoolyard gang leader") look, which originated in the '70s and involved shredding one's uniform and wearing it casually to rebel against oppressive discipline and strict dressing codes. Other typical elements are the sarashi worn on an otherwise bare upper half, old-fashioned geta and makeshift rope belt. Her normal appearance resembles the sukeban (スケ番, "female delinquent") look, namely the long blond hair (sukeban would often dye and/or perm them) and ankle-length skirt, contrary to the standard knee-length skirt.
- This is most likely a reference to Jotaro Kujo from Jojo's Bizarre Adventure as their outfits are nearly identical.
- The kanji on the back of her gakuran reads ikki tō'oku (一騎当億, "one-man army"). Normally the idiom is written ikki tōsen (一騎当千), roughly translating as "one horseman standing up to a thousand men", but Daidōji's phrase replaces the last kanji with oku (億), changing it to "one horseman standing up to a hundred million men".
- In Guren no Hebi it is revealed she has had (or possibly still has) feelings for her teacher.
- When she was a junior, her abdominal muscles weren't as developed. This is particularly evident in the anime when she fought Rin and lost before being lectured by the latter.
