===The Fall=== {{Quote|I'll never forgive us for what we did in Hanamura.<br/>Those people were criminals.<br/>So were we.|[[Cole Cassidy]] and [[Jack Morrison]] discussing Overwatch's actions against the clan}} Things started to go awry for the clan when [[Sojiro Shimada]] was assassinated by a rival clan, the [[Hashimoto clan|Hashimoto]].<ref name = "KirikoOriginSummary">2022-09-21, [https://www.youtube.com/shorts/O-MLYVfzVPE Kiriko Origin Story]. ''YouTube'', accessed on 2022-09-27</ref> After Sojiro's death, the clan elders instructed [[Hanzo Shimada]] (Sojiro's oldest son) to straighten out his wayward younger brother, [[Genji|Genji Shimada]], so that he, too, might help rule the Shimada empire. When his brother refused, Hanzo was forced to kill him. This act broke Hanzo's heart and drove him to reject his father's legacy, ultimately leading him to abandon the clan.<ref name = "Hanzo">[http://us.battle.net/overwatch/en/heroes/hanzo/ Hanzo], ''Blizzard Entertainment''. Accessed on 2015-01-20</ref> Seeing this as betrayal, the clan declared Hanzo an enemy and assassins were sent time and time again to kill him.<ref name="Dragons">''[[Dragons]]''</ref> The Shimada faced another hurdle as they were targeted by [[Overwatch (group)|Overwatch]]. In an ironic twist, Genji had survived Hanzo's attempted assassination, and been rescued by Overwatch, turned into a cybernetic ninja. Transformed into a living weapon, Genji single-mindedly set about the task of dismantling his family's criminal empire, a task in which he apparently succeeded.<ref name = "Genji">[http://us.battle.net/overwatch/en/heroes/genji/ Genji], ''Blizzard Entertainment''. Accessed on 2015-11-07</ref> In the current day, the Shimada appear to be defunct—the Hashimoto took control of Shimada Castle, most of the members are in prison or deceased.
