Enja

Enja (炎邪) is a character who was introduced in Samurai Shodown V. He is based on Enja Kazuki from Samurai Shodown 64: Warriors Rage. Developers for SSV wanted Enja to be different from Kazuki by making Enja "unable to speak human language." He is voiced by Shintarō Ōhata.

Personality
A savage and brutal being that will tear through anything that stands in his way.

Powers

 * Pyrokinesis - Enja can use the power of fire at will.
 * Possession - Enja is able to possess and control Kazuki's body.

Fighting Style
Enja relies on an aggressive and close combat style where he deals massive damage using punches that mimic Kazuki's sword strikes. He is very easily angered, reflected on how his rage bar needs only a few hits to max out. Suija on the other hand takes the longest for the rage bar to max from taking hits.

Gameplay-wise, he takes on Kazuki's Bust (Rasetsu) moveset and inflicts more damage than Bust Kazuki. On the other hand, it takes skill to string up his attacks together for an effective execution of moves.
