Sayu's Background

Although there are lots of lethal samurai in Inazuma, Sayu is the region's resident ninja from the Shiyuumatsu-Ban that specializes in a rare variety of mystical ninjutsu. Sayu may appear small and insignificant, yet she is renowned for her remarkable stealth and mastery of the Anemo element.

While being a talented ninja, Sayu is really concerned about something. Players may notice from her appearance that she is very small. All of Sayu's peers have gotten taller.

Because of that, whether it's because she believes it or because someone told her, sleeping makes her grow taller. So when she isn't busy sweeping her enemies off their feet, she'll find any excuse to hide and nap whenever she has the chance. She started sleeping all the time and always appeared exhausted, as if she couldn't get enough sleep.

Sayu is a 4-star character who wields a Claymore and possesses an Anemo vision.

One of her major moves; the Elemental Skill, Yoohoo Art: Fuuin Dash, entails rolling into a wind wheel and inflicting damage on everyone who crosses her path. She can absorb elemental damage and fling it back at her enemies while rolling around. When she's finished, she ends the action with a huge kick.

For her Elemental Burst, Yoohoo Art: Mujina Flurry, Sayu may also summon assistance from Muji-Muji Daruma, that deals Anemo damage to opponents while healing her teammates, allowing her to easily fulfill damage or healer roles in players' party.
