Fighting Style
Saya is close-combat, combo-oriented character with the lowest damage output per hit in the game. However, she is also very fast and able to keep her opponents at a distance with her fast projectiles. As dual-wielding female character, she takes place of Shiki in the character roster. They share similar attacks but Saya's fighting style is closer to that of Basara and other ninja characters in previous games.
