Fighting Style
As a Swordmaster, Ryoma's attacks are both quick and fierce. His katana, the Raijinto, takes its name from the Shinto god of thunder (similarly, Takumi's weapon, the Fujin Yumi, is named after the Shinto god of wind). He also gains access to the Warriors-exclusive High Prince class (in Fire Emblem, a Swordmaster is already promoted from Samurai or Myrmidon.)

His special Crest is Astra, which is a classic Fire Emblem Swordmaster skill. Normally enabling its user to attack five times for half regular damage (though each has a chance to critically strike) with a single action, in Warriors, it grants Hasty Attacks and boosts Ryoma's attack speed.
