Not really a god, but more like a figure in the Indian religion/Buddhism.

Acrodding to the religions, there are 6 worlds in this world. The world of human, the world of gods, the world of the dead, the world of hunger, the world of the fallen, and the world of the kill. Ashura is the representative race (?) of the last world mentioned. Ashura is a demon in the Indian religion. However, in the buddhist, it's actually a god.

That's all I know. I'll now proceed to translate what I get from a buddhist book I'm have on my lap:
Spoiler for long long paragraph:


The reason Ashura is used in the sub-title is because of the destiny of the HiMEs, where they have to kill other HiME's beloved (Sakiya REALLY did kill everyone)
Oh, and Unmei no Keitojou is probably the sub-sub-title? We often ignore the word Ashura, since it sounds so horrible and scary.
