FAQ

What is Taimanin Wiki?
The Taimanin wiki covers the media of the Taimanin series and other Lilith Soft games, that were part of crossovers. It tries mostly to give the lore and context unlike current wikis covering the mechanics or gameplay of the online games.

Who owns Taimanin Wiki?
No one, it simply is a fan cooperation, we have no direct link to the creators or working for anybody. Also members are around the world.

Who is responsible to edit this Wikia?
Anyone willing to help, please read Guidelines and Blocking Policy first.

What can I do to help?
Spell checking and quality control, adding lore information, adding characters, adding artwork, adding game/OVA/manga descriptions and so on. Priorities are existing pages with little information.

Who created Taimanin and who are the main artists?
Lilith Soft especially the subdivision of Black Lilith. The main artist of the Asagi series are Kagami Hirotaka, followed by ZOL and Aoi Nagisa. The online games have a large mix of other artists.

What is the genre?
Most games are darker eroge visual novels, they feature alot of those tags nobody admits to watch. The free online games are gacha, with Action Taimanin being a SFW, Hack and Slay.

What's the story about?
It plays in an alternative near future, around Japan and beyond, a world in which magic and technology exists. Taimanin are ninja that try to counter the corrupting aspects of technology and demons. Some games feature Asagi, as the protagonists but not all. The Taimanin tend to go on a mission, something goes horribly wrong and they need to escape or kill their opponent, something of that sort.

Tl;dr Super powered ninja ladies of the future, fighting demons and cyborgs. Stories tend to be rather dark and lewd.

Where can I play it?
Currently not all games are released "officially" in english but fan translations exist for all games, outside of Mama wa Taimanin and Taimanin Kurenai. Steam has demo's of Taimanin Asagi and Taimanin Yukikaze as well as a free to play game Action Taimanin. The also free, currently still running. Taimanin Asagi Battle Arena english version. is on Nutaku.

What is Mahou Kaiju?
An other wiki that tends to show up in search. The maker use Taimanin and other franchises characters for fanfiction, of a "movie franchise," that will be made in the future, by him(?). It should not be used as a source of information to learn anything about Taimanin, as the site doesn't make it clear were official material starts and fanfiction begins.

How do I read names?
Characters with a Japanese name, will have their surname and then the firstname. While american (UFS) characters and most demons, will be writen first name and then surname. Western names in Japanese letters tend to have a "・" like Edwin Black (エドウィン・ブラック).

Example: "Igawa Asagi and her sister Igawa Sakura are from Japan. Asagi and Sakura are joined by Emily Simmons of the UFS, to fight the vampire Edwin Black."

What is a Taimanin?
A human, with supernatural powers given by demon blood in their past ancestry. They are typically also trained as a ninja to fight demons. The word "Taimanin" also can address the "group" of Taimanin operating in Gosha Village or ex-members. It translates roughly to "Anti Demon Ninja".

When do those games take place?
Most games don't give a direct date putting it around the later half of 20XX. We did some speculation on our History page. However, Taimanin RPGX has been revealed to play in the year 2082.

What games are part of that Taimanin world?
Check Main Taimaninverse Games for this. Some games like Witch of Steel Annerose, Onmyo Knight Towako and Carla The Blood Lord, do not feature Taimanin but share the setting. The Prison Series also would be part of that but those play 200 years after the Taimanin games, possiblity in an alternative future.

What does TABA/RPGX/Action timeline mean?
The games Taimanin Asagi Battle Arena, Taimanin RPGX and Action Taimanin each, have their own continuity against the main canon. Should a character be very different in one of the timelines that will be noted. Check Glossary for some more term use.

How old is X?
Currently only the ages of Asagi, Sakura and Murasaki are vaguely mentioned in Taimanin Asagi 3. There exist april fools material and some alternative magical girl world ages but non of that is canon. In TA3: Asagi is a few years "over" 30. Murasaki will turn 30 soon and Sakura is 24 turning 25 that year. Consider all character as over 18, as disclaimers for the games state this as well.

How is that Canon?
Check the Lilith Multiverse page and the History page for an idea of events. OVA's are more what if ends, so if you are worried...just think of it happening in an alternative world. The true ending routes of the games tend to be what you read on the character and game pages.

Can I use Taimanin Wiki material on an other websites?
Yes but give credit.

Can I put content from other sites on the Wiki?

"Source Mode" and "Visual Mode"?
Source mode allows you to edit the wiki code of a page, visual mode shows you what the page itself looks like. You can edit in both but some edits are only possible in Source Mode.

Useful pages for people that want to edit?

 * Example Source Page (To find sources)
 * Example Page Image (showcase which images we want)
 * Example Page Character (How to make a character page, can also be copy-pasted)

How do links work?
Activate by holding strg+k or ctrl+k, clicking the link symbol in visual mode and typing "". A text box will open and you can type for an existing page on the wiki, if you type a page that has not been made yet it will show up red like this "[[Test". If you click into red text, it sends to to the empty page, after making one. All red text linking to the same former empty page will become blue and be a working link. If you want a link to a category, example "Anime".  Type :category:Anime in that box. If you want to use a different word while still linking to the same page or category use a "|". Change into source mode (easier) and type something like OVA's it will show up like this: OVA's. For anything more please research on your own or ask on discord.

Where can I discuss pages?
Every page has a Talk Page that one can access by hovering over the dropdown arrow next to the Edit button. The Talk button should be at the bottom of the dropdown selection but prefered would be discord.

Somebody reverted my edits, what should I do?
Edit wars should be avoided at all costs. Discussion and respecting the edits of others are the best ways to prevent them. If this has been done and you disagree, you can undo the undo (do not forget to state your point of view). If the reverting was done by a mod or admin, try using the discord or talk page. Keep evidence ready to prove your point.

Where do I make test edits?
A good place would be https://community.fandom.com/wiki/Community_Central.
