KUNOICHI

What this record means

The record shows that KUNOICHI is a cancelled Principal Register mark owned by Kabushiki Kaisha Sega Enterprises; the registration was cancelled on August 22 2009 because the owner did not file a required Section 8 declaration. The only goods listed are “computer software for use in creating game programs to be used with home video game machines, arcade video game machines and personal computers,” so a similar name used in the gaming‑software arena would raise the closest record‑based concern, while uses outside that niche fall farther from the scope shown. The record does not give Sega control over every possible use of the word KUNOICHI, only over the specific software described. Because the mark was on the Principal Register, there is no Supplemental Register sequence to explain. The latest meaningful event is the Section 8 cancellation in 2009, and the supplied history shows no oppositions, cancellations by others, or court actions. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan a gaming‑software brand with a similar name.
