[edit] About Saizo

Saizo is a dark character who keeps his emotions hidden. He normally hides behind a mask to avoid the contact with others, although on occasion his part-time job requires him to appear on stage in an animal costume. Saizo is known for his high-pitched squealing when he attacks.

[edit] Special Moves

  • Dragon Flash Bomb - Saizo throws a bomb that explodes when it hits the ground.
  • Fake Dragon Flash - Much like the above move, except Saizo throws a fake bomb. He gained this move in Power Instinct Legends and has had it since.
  • Triangle Tsunami Slash - Saizo comes barreling at the opponent from above for multiple hits.
  • Dragon Flame Flash - Saizo hurls a blast of energy at the opponent.
  • Flame Slicer - Saizo rushes at the opponent with his elbow at amazing speed with a wave of energy in front of him.
  • Teleportation Attack - Saizo leaves a clone of himself behind as he attacks the opponent from above. He had this move in Power Instinct Legends.
  • Ninjitsu Image - Saizo activates his ninjitsu and leaves images of himself in his wake as he fights for a limited time. He had this move in Power Instinct Legends.
  • Flaming Flash Wave - Saizo leaps into the air and throws down several Dragon Flash Bombs at the opponent.
  • Shadow Slash - Saizo throws a shadow from the ground. If it hits, a shadow replica of himself will rise out and slash the opponent violently with kunai knives.

[edit] Trivia

  • Saizo is a bit of a parody of ninjas in general.
  • In his ending in Power Instinct Legends, he decided to take off his helmet, because he feels its an important step to get rid of his fear to be in contact with people. This could explain why he is no longer wearing it in Matrimelee.
  • Saizo considers his mask to be a good luck charm.
  • He likes the word "effort".
  • He speaks in a code language called "Popapepa" when he doesn't want people to know what he is saying (apparently, only Poochy can understand that language).
  • He is based on the historic figure Hanzo Hattori.
  • In official artwork, Saizo's face in entirety has never been shown when his mask and helmet were off; Usually his back is turned, or he is covering the lower portion of his face with his hand. The only exception to this is in his Power Instinct Legends ending.
