Houjou House


 * Leader - Houjou Souun
 * Principle - Protect JAPAN from ogres.
 * Military strength - 4/5 (Diviners/Yin Yangs consists most of their force, and thus they lack front-liners. However, the numbers of Komatsu's unit and strength of Houjou Souun make up for it)

The Houjou House (North) is the leader of the Diviner/Yin Yang Ways. Together with the Nanjou (South), Saijou (West), and the Toujou (East) Houses they compete and the best Diviner/Yin Yang master becomes the leader and the other three houses will be the vassals. The Diviner/Yin Yang masters are charged with the ancient task of sealing portals to hell and defeating Ogres. It prays for peace for JAPAN, and works with the Uesugi House to prevent the expansion of the Oda House.

The Houjou House controls Saitama, Kazusa 2000, Edo, and Death Country (until Takuga break-off).
