'''Fujieda:''' "Warriors in a time without Koubu who fought evil with swords or their own bodies...... An organization that became the predecessor to the TeikokuKagekidan." ''Sakura Taisen'', Episode 7, "Decisive Battle – The Limit of Life!". Translated by Lando at [http://www.gamefaqs.com/console/saturn/file/574320/5255 GameFAQs.com]. Retrieved on 2007-04-24.</ref> One of the members of that original team, [[Lieutenant General|Lt. General]] Ikki Yoneda, commanded the group until his retirement. The Teigeki has had two vice commanders in its history, the first of which was Ayame Fujieda; after her death, the position was taken over by her younger sister, Kaede Fujieda. By 1927, the Imperial Assault Force is composed of six official groups,<ref name="TeitoGrps">{{cite book |title=Sakura Taisen 4 ~Koi Seyo, Otome~ Hanagumi Roman Gahou |year=2002 |publisher=Kodansha |isbn=4-06-339653-3}}, page 40</ref> all of which serve different purposes within the organization. The anti-demon attack squad,<ref name="TeitoGrps"/> known as the {{nihongo|Flower Division|花組|Hanagumi}},<ref name="HanagumiNames">The squad name "Flower Division" is a pun reflective of the fact that the original members of the Teito Flower Division and the Paris Flower Division were all named after flowers.</ref> is the division that the series focuses much of its attention on early in the story. It is led by [[Lieutenant|Lt. Junior Grade]] Ichiro Ogami, with Maria Tachibana acting as his vice captain. Other members include Sakura Shinguji, Sumire Kanzaki, Iris Chateaubriand, Ri Kohran, Kanna Kirishima, Orihime Soletta, and Reni Milchstraße. Other teams that play significant roles in the original storyline are the {{nihongo|Wind Division|風組|Kazegumi}}, who are responsible for frontline support and transportation;<ref name="TeitoGrps"/> {{nihongo|Moon Division|月組|Tsukigumi}}, who provide support within the shadows;<ref name="Tsukigumi">'''Kayama:''' "The corps that moves in secret, supporting the Hana-Gumi that normally fights on the front lines of the battlefield from the shadows, the Tsuki-Gumi......"

Retrieved on 2007-04-24.</ref> The Wind Division members who are most recognized are Tsubaki Takamura, Kasumi Fujii, and Yuri Sakakibara, all of whom also perform secretarial work within the theater. Little is known about the Moon Division aside from its captain, Yuichi Kayama. Kotone Seiryuin, Yokihiko Ota, and Kikunojo Oka make up the entirety of the Rose Division, with Kotone as their squad leader. Established before the Imperial Assault Force officially went into service, an experimental troupe known as the Star Division (''Hoshigumi'')<ref name="HoshigumiName">The squad name {{nihongo|"Star Division"|星組|Hoshigumi}} is another pun on the names of current and previous Star Division members, whose names are all related to the stars in some form.</ref> was set up in Europe and was the predecessor to Tokyo's Flower Division.<ref name="TeitoGrps"/> Consisting of Orihime, Reni, and Subaru Kujou, with Ratchet Altair as captain, the troupe was disbanded after only a couple of years. Orihime and Reni were eventually transferred to the Flower Division on 1925. Ratchet was also temporarily stationed to the group near the end of 1926. <!-- Deleted image removed: [[File:STPariKagekidan.jpg|thumb|left|200px|The Groupe Fleur de Paris]] --> ===Paris Assault Force=== The {{nihongo|Paris Assault Force|巴里華撃団|Pari Kagekidan}}, established in 1926 as part of the European Municipal Defense Project,<ref name="CountriesFollow"/> is led by Countess Isabella "Grand-Mère" Lilac. The ''Groupe Fleur de Paris'' stands as its armored force,<ref name="PariKagekidan">{{cite book |title=Sakura Taisen 3 ~Pari wa Moeteiru ka?~ Final Guide |year=2001 |publisher=Enterbrain, Inc. |isbn=4-7577-0529-8}}, page 12</ref> and is composed of Erica Fontaine, Glycine Bleumer, Coquelicot, Lobelia Carlini, and Hanabi Kitaoji. Ogami was assigned as its captain during its first few months of operation. Mell Raison and Ci Caprice handle the secretarial work for Les Chattes Noires and provide assistance in battle. The maintenance of the spirit armors are overseen by the mechanic staff squad leader Jean Leo. <!-- Deleted image removed: [[File:STNewYorkKagekidan.jpg|thumb|right|200px|The New York Fighting Troupe — Star Division.]] --> ===New York Fighting Troupe=== Formed in 1928 with Michael Sunnyside as its commander, the {{nihongo|New York Fighting Troupe|紐育華撃団|Nyū Yōku Kagekidan}} differs from other organizations in that their assault team is referred to as the Star Division. Two members of the original disbanded Star Division were transferred to this group. Ratchet Altair was the original captain of the squad, but her failing spiritual power led her to give the position to Ensign Shinjiro Taiga, while she took the role of vice commander. Gemini Sunrise, Sagiitta Weinberg, Diana Caprice, Rikaritta Aries, and Subaru Kujo form the rest of the team. The Rainbow Division, composed of Plum Spaniel and Anri Yoshino, provides the Star Division with support.<ref name="Nijigumi">'''Plum:''' "Ufu fu fu, We’re members of the New York Floral Assault Squad, too. And that name is...... The New York Floral Assault Rainbow Division!" '''Anri:''' "We’ll provide support on the sides for everyone in the Star Division. So please ask anything of us."
