So, here's my standing on the characters. I maintain that Hideyoshi is the most powerful character when he means to be.
Spoiler:
Tiny monkey dude gave him that trinket from Nene, which apparently made him weaker or something, if I understand it right, due to him valuing it, which seems to have been relevant to Date killing him.
I disagree with OBD on their speed, its plain they can fight at superhuman speeds but I don't see hypersonic+ feats, maybe I didn't look hard enough.
As for Kojuro, I'm confused about him. His showing against Hanbei was impressive but also left me feeling he should still be low meta, if the top of it. Hanbei was dying and still gave him pause. Yet he could match Yukimura, who halted the fortress. I'm not sure what to do with him. I suppose I'll do the reasonable thing and vote mid meta for him.
Hideyoshi for low herald.
Date/Yuki for high meta.
Kojuro for mid meta.
I vote thusly.
Edit: If his opponent gets a mask Yuki drops to low street.
Spoiler:In that fight with Date he still seemed to have the same mindset and did everything in his power like the previous fights to beat him. He just lost and knowing that he was dying probably put everything into perspective for him, thinking of her, how he spent his time, Keiji and Hanbei. I don't see how valuing a memento of your wife will drop your durability. There's a lot of Raoh (Fist of the north star) qualities in him and a lot of fans say that Raoh only lost because his Musou Tensei was incomplete due to not killing Yuria. I love Hideyoshi, and I do feel like his defeat was plot induced stupidity especially since it was like one or two hits, but it is what it is and I can't change that.
Nene was his wife, died somehow and that's when he went all cold-hearted and shut out Keiji and all others.
During their first fight Hanbei won because Kojuro was only focused on saving the peasants. During their second he went balls in and whooped their asses outside of that one attack Hanbei did which surprised him and then Kojuro just ended him. Hanbei was also sick the entire season, though I loved his reaction after pissing off Date by hitting his back.
Kojuro also beat Matsunaga Hisade, the guy who drilled a younger Hideyoshi although he didn't have that Conqueror's Spirit back then. Kojuro also fought Masamune and beat him, granted he was injured from the bullet wound and Kojuro is tailor made to fight Date. During the fight he basically exploits his main weakness. He also fought three sub-bosses of Matsunaga while poisoned, I'm not sure if he got the antidote before or after beating them though. I'm thinking it was afterwards.

Hm. Next up on the block, Kratos from God of War. Votes?
Time to vote:
The Three Golden Goddesses from Zelda,
"When Hyrule was created by the three goddesses at the beginning of time, there were certain side effects of its creation which Din, Nayru and Farore did not anticipate. As the three holy women breathed life into the world and chased away Emptiness, their potent breath slipped through tiny cracks in the folds of space and created millions of alternate worlds in the process. One of these worlds became the land known as Termina."
Also, damnit, vote on Kerrigan.
Sheogorath is on the block, too.
