Peerless Samurai.

The high prince of Hoshido and wielder of the legendary Rajinto. He follows the Bushido code and is quite hard on himself, much like his late father, Sumeragi. The worst at knowing when to quit.

Ryoma is one of the best characters in Birthright . Great growth rates all around, and he is recruited as a Swordmaster, one of the better offensive melee classes. It certainly helps that his divine weapon, Rajinto , allows him to attack from range and has a high critical hit rate. He will always remain relevant and needs almost no prior training to be immediately useful.

His secondary class is rather unnecessary and won’t serve to further him much farther, but reclassing him into Master of Arms to give him Life and Death will turn him into the ultimate glass cannon. But what does it matter that he’ll take a lot of damage if the enemy is dead before they can hit back?
