Sayu attack skill #1

Normal Attack: Shuumatsuban Ninja Blade

Normal Attack
Performs up to 4 consecutive strikes.

Charged Attack
Drains Stamina over time to perform continuous spinning attacks against all nearby opponents.
At the end of the sequence, performs a more powerful slash. 

Plunging Attack
Plunges from mid-air to strike the ground below, damaging opponents along the path and dealing AoE DMG upon impact.
Sayu attack skill #2

Yoohoo Art: Fuuin Dash

#The special technique of the Yoohoo Ninja Arts!
Sayu curls up into a rolling Fuufuu Windwheel and smashes into opponents at high speed, dealing Anemo DMG. When the duration ends, she unleashes a Fuufuu Whirlwind Kick, dealing AoE Anemo DMG.

{LAYOUT_MOBILE#Tap}{LAYOUT_PC#Press}{LAYOUT_PS#Press}
Enters the Fuufuu Windwheel state, rolling forward a short distance before using the Fuufuu Whirlwind Kick.

Hold
Rolls about continuously in the Fuufuu Windwheel state, increasing Sayu's resistance to interruption while within that state.
During this time, Sayu can control the direction of her roll, and can use the skill again to end her Windwheel state early and unleash a stronger version of the Fuufuu Whirlwind Kick.
The Hold version of this skill can trigger Elemental Absorption.

This skill has a maximum duration of 10s and enters CD once its effects end. The longer Sayu remains in her Windwheel state, the longer the CD.

Elemental Absorption
If Sayu comes into contact with Hydro/Pyro/Cryo/Electro while in her Windwheel state, she will deal additional elemental DMG of that type.
Elemental Absorption may only occur once per use of this skill.

Sayu can pull this skill off with her eyes closed. This technique was originally created for escaping, but now that she's got a Vision, might as well make her foes eat dirt while she's at it.
Sayu attack skill #3

Yoohoo Art: Mujina Flurry

The other super special technique of the Yoohoo Ninja Arts! It summons a pair of helping hands for Sayu.
Deals Anemo DMG to nearby opponents and heals all nearby party members. The amount of HP restored is based on Sayu's ATK. This skill then summons a Muji-Muji Daruma.

Muji-Muji Daruma
At specific intervals, the Daruma will take one of several actions based on the situation around it:
·If the HP of nearby characters is above 70%, it will attack a nearby opponent, dealing Anemo DMG.
·If there are active characters with 70% or less HP nearby, it will heal the active character with the lowest percentage HP left. If there are no opponents nearby, it will heal active characters nearby even if they have 70% HP or more.

People who don't know the first thing about ninjutsu love to watch Sayu show off this skill, and some have tried to learn it from her. But Sayu just wants to sleep and not be disturbed.

Quotes

Hello

Sayu, Shuumatsuban, at your disposal! Whew, but if you don't need me right now, I'm gonna grab some sleep. Nope, no need to tuck me in — I need the extra room to grow into.

Chat: Asleep

*yawns* *snoring*

Chat: Work

Seems like I should have just stayed in bed today.

Chat: Height

Surely I should be due a growth spurt by now?

When It Rains

Eek, let's find shelter, quick! Watering works on plants, but not people...

When Thunder Strikes

Phew, this weather is wild! Best thing to do is dive under the covers where it's dark and snug and warm and nyam nyam nyam~ *sleeps*

When It Snows

It's really easy to hide in weather like this. There's this ninjutsu technique called Cloak of Snow where you can pretty much make yourself invisible — all other people see when they look at you is the snowflakes dancing in the air. Wait, it's confidential though! Don't tell any of this to the shrine maiden...

When the Sun Is Out

Loooove it when the weather's like this, just makes you wanna... *yawn* doze off for a while.

When It's Windy

A windy day is a good day for a getaway.

When the Wind Is Blowing

I always know it's time to get some shut-eye when the wind's so strong that I can't open my eyes anyway.

Good Morning

...Morning? Already? Okay, I'm just gonna snooze for, like, 10 more minutes... Please, just 10 minutes... No? Okay, 5 minutes then? *snores*

Good Afternoon

Is it noon yet? Finally, I'm so ready for my nap.

Good Evening

Recon confirms, no sign of the shrine maiden within a 3-mile radius. Moving to the next phase: sleepy time!

Good Night

At long last... bed time... G'night...

About Sayu: Shuumatsuban

Yeah, I'm in the Shuumatsuban, but they only ever get me to do stuff like... *yawn* information gathering and stealing. So, y'know... it's not really a big deal if the work doesn't get done.

About Sayu: Skiving

So I don't do any important work at the Shuumatsuban, and anything that gets put off for long enough ends up getting done by someone who's more suited to it anyway. Sleep, on the other hand — that is of the utmost importance. Because I need to get enough sleep to make sure I get my growth spurt.

About Us: Favor

Hey, will you do me a favor and let me know if you see the shrine maiden coming? I'm just gonna, um... rest my eyes for a moment.

About Us: Headpats

I'm not a pet, y'know! Hmm, but since it's you... Okay, you can pat my head and I promise not to bite your hand. Just a little, though! If you pat someone's head too much, it stunts their growth.

About the Vision

My sword is crazy heavy, even with my ninjutsu training there's no way I could lift it without the help of my Vision. So yeah, having a Vision is a huge help for me.

Something to Share

Sensei says I'll be the last ninja ever in our line. I guess it can't be helped, because this style of ninjutsu wouldn't be much help in a fight anyway — all I've been taught is how to escape and how to cover your tracks.

Interesting Things

Do you know the mujina? It looks similar to a tanuki, but it's way cuter. I'll take you to see one next time!

About Kamisato Ayaka

As the eldest daughter of the Kamisato Clan, she always looks very graceful and elegant. But she got one of the shrine maidens to keep tabs on me and make sure I don't slack off... Why would she do that?

About Kamisato Ayato

Sometimes, when I'm taking a rest up in a tree, I overhear the shrine maidens talking about him. Sounds like he's pretty important and super busy most of the time. I don't get it, though — it's only work, or whatever, so why doesn't he just... not do it?

About Thoma

He's got a Vision, and yet for some reason he pesters me about learning ninjutsu every time I run into him. I don't know what his deal is. It's not like I'd have the time to teach him anyway, I barely get enough sleep as it is.

About Yoimiya

Every time she sees me she says, "Hey, little tanuki! Let's go hang out at the festival." Firstly, I'm not a tanuki. Secondly, I don't wanna go to a festival. Thirdly, she says she wants to hang out — but really, she just wants me to do a ninjutsu performance during the fireworks show. That's not even related to my work for the Shuumatsuban!

About the Raiden Shogun

Her Excellency? Definitely not someone I'd ever get to meet. If you've got questions, maybe Miss Ayaka's the person to ask.

About Yae Miko

She's always patting me on the head... I've never bitten her, though, or even said anything, because I'm frightened of how she'd react if I stood up to her. But what am I gonna do? Because if she keeps on patting my head, I'm gonna get stuck at this height forever!

About Arataki Itto

Why does he have to make such a racket? And how did he get so tall!?

About Kuki Shinobu

Doesn't ring a bell, umm... What? Arataki Itto's little sidekick? Ugh, well she's definitely gotta be a sleep disturbance then. Birds of a feather flock together...

About Kirara

One time, when I woke up from an afternoon nap, I felt something warm against my back. I turned around and saw a cat curled up fast asleep. You wouldn't believe this — it had not only one, but two fluffy tails! I almost fell from the tree in surprise. I—Is this some form of ninjutsu too?

More About Sayu: I

Zzzz...

More About Sayu: II

Huh? You wanna know the name of my style of ninjutsu? Uhh... Y'know what, I can't think straight right now, I'm still half asleep here. Lemme snooze a while longer, maybe my mind'll be clearer when I wake up.

More About Sayu: III

Alright, fine... I'll tell you. But you'd better not laugh, or I'm never talking to you again. Uh so, my style of ninjutsu is called... um... Yoohoo Art. The reason is supposedly that our style focuses on making fun of the enemy, but still... I mean... *sigh*

More About Sayu: IV

Do you know how to climb trees? I'm an expert, I can teach you. There's this tree down at the shrine — it's the perfect place, you could just literally sleep there all day if you wanted and no one would ever find you... Uh, I just mean, it's a great place for a power nap. Next time you wanna take a nap, let me know, I'll take you there.

More About Sayu: V

It was actually Sensei who gave me this outfit. They said it was modeled after the mujina, and it could help with escapes, or something... and then Sensei said that I was all grown up and ready to go it alone, but that I should still be careful to protect myself... then they left me. Am I really ready to go it alone, at my height? Um... Hmm? Y—You'll keep my company? Really? Promise you won't leave me?

Sayu's Hobbies

When I put my hood on, I can snooze away to my heart's content without having to worry about the shrine maiden finding me. *sigh* I think it must be one of the best feelings in the whole world.

Sayu's Troubles: Misunderstanding

For some reason, when people meet me for the first time, they always call me tanuki, or teddy-bear, or kitty-cat... But Sayu is just Sayu — and definitely not a tanuki.

Sayu's Troubles: Height

When is my growth spurt gonna come? Everyone my age practically twice my height, and I'm still... Ugh, enough, I need sleep, sleep is the answer. Good night!

Sayu's Troubles: Feedback Loop

Recently someone told me that if you get annoyed too easily, that'll stunt your growth, too! ...Gah! I dunno what I can do about that...

Favorite Food

High-carb foods that give you instant energy, like rice balls. If you eat one the moment you wake up, it stops you feeling so groggy and bleary-eyed. Then, you can just relax and get straight back to sleep.

Least Favorite Food

Can't be picky about food when you've still got growing to do! ...That said, I haven't gained any height recently — maybe I'm not eating enough vegetables? But salad isn't filling enough and sometimes it can be really bitter... *sigh*

Receiving a Gift: I

I'm soooo full, time for a nap...

Receiving a Gift: II

If you eat enough of this... it makes you really sleepy.

Receiving a Gift: III

Uh oh... Need an escape plan.

Birthday

Wanna learn some ninja skills? I can teach you! Well, only the skills I know, of course. Hmm? Why aren't I asleep? ...Uhh, because I'm not sleepy... and also because today is a special day! I had to stay awake today so I'd have the chance to say it to you in person: Happy Birthday.

Feelings About Ascension: Intro

Is it just me, or did I get a little taller!?

Feelings About Ascension: Building Up

Awesome, now I can slip away faster than ever. Hee-hee, they can't catch me now.

Feelings About Ascension: Climax

Hey, thanks for going and gathering all those materials for me. I would've gone myself, but... I probably would've got about halfway before falling asleep.

Feelings About Ascension: Conclusion

I think I'm finally ready to go it alone now, just like Sensei said I should. And... maybe it's not such a big deal now if I can't grow any taller. Because what really matters... is that I have you to keep me company.

Low HP: II
