Sengoku Basara/Sasuke Sarutobi

Sasuke Sarutobi (Talon in Devil Kings) is a shinobi in the service of ../Yukimura Sanada/, and by extension Shingen Takeda. He commands the shinobi of the Takeda army as one of its most loyal soldiers, and has developed a rivalry with a kunoichi in the employ of the opposing army of ../Kenshin Uesugi/, ../Kasuga/. Sasuke is usually cool and calm in demeanor, in contrast to the ultra-hyper Shingen and Yukimura, who can often be found screaming at the top of their lungs and engaging in pointless fistfights with each other. Thus, he can be considered the straight man to the wacky antics of his superior officers.
 * Max HP: 42100
 * Weapon: Dual shuriken
 * Attribute: Darkness
 * Unlock: Clear Unification Mode with ../Shingen Takeda/

Despite their strong rivalry, Sasuke shares most of his move set with Kasuga, as well as the darkness attribute. His movement speed is quick, and he can even fly above enemies (press psx: X twice) by grabbing hold of a shadowy crow. This ability can be especially helpful when dealing with enemies that Sasuke requires a quick escape from, such as bomb soldiers or archers/shooters. His Basara attack is also effective and allows him some mobility, making him (and Kasuga) front-runners to attempt the Stylish and Super Stylish trophies (as long as the final three accessory, which allow unlimited Basara attacks once the gauge is filled for the first time, are equipped). Mobility aside, try to catch bosses in between the shadow clones that Sasuke creates for maximum damage.

As for Sasuke's skills, his first is helpful for pulling crowds in or stunning pole-swingers, but becomes useless when enemies run toward him or during boss battles. His second is helpful, like his crow, in escaping enemies, as it has a considerable invincibility window (once Sasuke jumps into the ground to become a shadow himself). When he rises up out of the ground to attack, the attack can be continued in midair with psx: S, where enemies have the disadvantage.
