Keiichiro Washizuka (鷲塚わしづか慶一郎けいいちろう) is a character from The Last Blade series. He is symbolized by the Shinsengumi's coat, embroidered with the character for "sincere" (誠). His official slogan is "Sword Wolf" (誠忠せいちゅうけん, lit. Sword of Loyalty).

He is voiced by Katsuyuki Konishi.

Personality[]

Keiichiro is a very serious man, probably due to some trauma, and thus takes his duties quite seriously. He is one of the few people that knows the current Kojiroh is actually Kaori, his sister, and seems to be very close to both him and her.

Powers[]

  • Energy Projectile - Washizuka can fire a projectile of energy from his sword.
  • Energy Attacks - Washizuka can fuel his sword with ki energy, likely creating a vacuum for higher cutting potency.
  • Fast Slashing - Washizuka can deliver several slashes almost at the same time, mainly in the form of rapid stabs.

Fighting Style[]

Tennen Rishin-Ryuu was a real fighting style used by the Shinsengumi. It uses various horizontal and vertical slashes along with rigid-and-focused stabbing attacks, including shoulder charges to supplement his assaults. Washizuka's variation of it involves a different type of grip-stance, with the pommel being gripped near-fully by one of his hands instead of having his palm pushed upon it.

A majority of his attacks have either an "air/emptiness" motif or a wolf motif.

Game Appearances[]

Last Blade Drama CD[]

Washizuka makes an appearance while pursuing a demon under protection of an oblivious Yuki. He fights with both Hyo Amano and Yuki before they are interrupted.
