[edit] History
[edit] Samurai Shodown 4
Sogetsu is a member of the Kazama ninja clan, along with his brother Kazuki. When their sister Hazuki is kidnapped, Kazuki leaves on a personal vendetta to retrieve her. Since ninja are forbidden to leave their respective clans, Sogetsu is ordered to find and kill his brother.
After searching, Sogetsu eventually finds Kazuki at Amakusa castle. There, he allows Kazuki to rescue Hazuki, while he stays behind to fight Zankuro Minazuki. He slays Zankuro and returns to his clan, telling his superiors that Kazuki has been taken care of.
[edit] Samurai Shodown 5
Sogetsu is ordered by his ninja clan to defeat a powerful water-demon named Suija. After much searching, he encounters the demon, and engages him. To his chagrin, Suija proves to be a powerful opponent, and nearly kills him. In a desperate attempt by his sister Hazuki, she uses a ninjutsu spell to seal Suija away in Sogetsu's weapon, making it more powerful.
[edit] Samurai Shodown 64
Sogetsu continues to keep a watchful eye on Kazuki and their sister as they lead a carefree life. However, he soon catches word of a "mysterious puppeteer". He sets out to find the person, and along the way, once again meets with his brother. Together, they defeat the Gandara monstrosity. He also discovers that the demon sealed in his weapon escapes at descriminate intervals and possesses his body, resulting in his "bust form".
[edit] Trivia
- His name translates to "Blue Moon"
- His "bust" form is him taken over by his weapon Seiryuu.
- Sogetsu and his brother are nearly direct opposites of each other- Sogetsu uses water-affinity attacks, while Kazuki utilizes fire. This also corresponds to their personalities as well; Sogetsu is calm, and soft-spoken, while his younger brother is very hot-headed and rash.
