Mini/Touken Ranbu

Minis created in the Touken Ranbu continuum are mini-Revisionists. They appear as smaller versions of these creatures with the mini names emblazoned on any spot on their bodies or clothing.

Canon Origin
Historical Revisionists or History Retrograding Forces (歴史修正主義者, 時間遡行軍) are the villains and monsters of the game. They are hideous and monstrous creatures who go back in time to change historical events, and the good forces must stop them. Nothing more is known about them, whether leadership, base of operations, creation, ultimate goal, or even whether they can speak.

Mini forms
As Revisionists also are swords and have sword types, minis of a sword character will take the form of the enemy sword type that corresponds with the character's (i.e. misspelling Namazuo's name will lead to a mini enemy wakizashi). Minis of non-swords (saniwa and such) or of terminology and places will take the form of the three most notorious and hard-to-beat "special" enemies: the high-speed yari, the kunai and the chū-wakizashi.

Since there is no enemy tsurugi, minis of a tsurugi will also take one of the aforementioned three "legendary" forms.

What counts as misspelling
As TouRabu is a Japanese work (in the sense that it's created in Japan, written in Japanese and set in Japan), what counts as misspelling in this continuum is different from that in works in non-syllabaric, non-pictographic languages.

The following events are not considered misspelling and thus do not lead to mini creation:
 * Non-Hepburn romanization (Ichigo Hitofuri vs. Itigo Hitohuri). However, use of nihon-shiki or kunrei-shiki is close to obsolete nowadays, at least in Western fandoms.
 * Using/not using diacritical marks or other means to indicate long vowels (Houchou Toushirou vs. Hōchō Tōshirō vs. Hocho Toshiro vs. Hohchoh Tohshiroh) or the sound ん (some dictionaries use a macron, i.e. ani (あに, older brother) vs. an̄i (あんい, ease)).
 * Using/not using hyphens (Mutsunokami vs. Mutsu-no-kami) or apostrophes (shin'yū vs. shinyū). Putting them at wrong places within the word, or inconsistency ("Mutsuno-kami") will lead to minis however.
