Fire Emblem Character Spotlight; Saizo
Saizo (サイゾウ Saizō) is a playable character in Fire Emblem Fates on the Birthright and Revelation routes. One of Ryoma's personal retainers and the older twin brother of Kaze, Saizo is a Hoshidan Ninja and is the fifth to carry the Saizo family name. If Saizo achieves an S support, he will bear a son named Asugi with his spouse.

Thank u so much Mangs!
I dont mean to be offtopic but does anybody know of a trick to get back into an instagram account..?
I was stupid forgot the login password. I would love any tips you can offer me.
@Axton Eli Instablaster ;)
@James Brycen I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and im waiting for the hacking stuff atm.
I see it takes a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@James Brycen It worked and I finally got access to my account again. Im so happy!
Thanks so much you saved my account :D
@Axton Eli Glad I could help :)
In honor of this character, I shall now recite the entirety of his absolute best support conversation in the game.

Saizo and Beruka attained support level C.
Best C support in Fates the writing is so emotional and engaging wow
Oscar worthy, Sir! God bless you and your glorious acting skills!
Mattew and Jaffar did it better (for all 3 supports)
Thank you Treehouse
At least they didn't fuck anything up.
I think you missed a big point Mangs. Saizo IS IN FACT his actual name. The first son of every generation inherits the name as their own. That's how he gets into a fight with his son, Asugi.
And it may be late but his 'Pyrotechnics' skill is highly useful on lunatic... As long as you don't forget about it and trigger it accidentally causing a reload.
7:00 He is fought and possibly killed in Conquest, not Birthright. Aside from that splendidly done as always, keep up the good work.
Roses are red,
Suicide is bad,
But terrorist ninjas,
Are just a fad.
Douglas Dragon yep
Saizo is the best saizo brother
Sorry green saizo
Saizo Saizo and Kaze Saizo
Mario Mario and Luigi Mario
Mangs, Im' pretty sure that Saizo is actually his name, the older son always carries the name Saizo,and in Asugi's case, he chooses to change his name, or maybe it is because of different language translations
Carlangas LVDC Saizo the V, Asugi would be Saizo the VI
Probably a good thing he changed. Talking about this game would be kind of confusing if both are named Saizo.
"Birthright is the only route where he can perish if he is fought and killed in Ryoma's chapter".
Don't you mean Conquest?
Yeah, I mixed them up.
Also, I think you may have given Saizo the short end of the stick when comparing him to Kagero and Kaze. For one, he is the only one of the three to be able to target enemy Resistance with reliable damage which gives him the advantage over a larger portion of enemies compared to the other two. And since you're going into Nohr in Birthright there will be a lot of Paladins and Generals, both of which usually have low Res but acceptable-fantastic Defense, which really helps. And his offensive growths really aren't too bad. Sure, he doesn't have Kagero's 70% Strength growth but 55% isn't too bad, and his Speed is pretty much fixed just by being a Ninja, so he still doubles most enemies while doing reliable damage, and that's not even mentioning debuffs and post-battle AoE damage. His bulk is pretty solid too. With a 50% Defense growth and a base of 9 and base 7 Res and 23 HP *and* his good-great avoidence he's a hard unit to take out. And like you said, his lower Res growth is made up for by almost always having a WT advantage. And with his high 80% Skill growth and the high accuracy of Hidden Weapons he'll almost always hit even if he's at a WT disadvantage. As you also said this lets him proc Lethality, Astra and Rend Heaven more reliably than most. Also thanks to his high Skill he gets a pretty high crit chance which can be monstrous when paired with Astra.
Then as a Ninja he of course also has his passive damage, debuffs, Locktouch and high movement which I'm surprised you didn't really talk about in the Utility segment.
Saizo's boss battle dialogue against Kotaro is my favorite thing about fates, especially if he gets the kill
"I'll rewrite your poem"
To all those shouting "but Lukas/Forsyth", please take note that they were not part of the Cain/Abel archetype before FE15. Forsyth was purple, not green, and was the calm and composed one while Lukas was the overexcitable one. It is one more thing changed in the remake to try to make it slightly less alien to the average FE fan, like Clair/Clive becoming a Clarine/Klein callback when neither was blonde in the original. Gaiden as a rule doesn't really have many archetypes, or at least the better-known playable ones.
Mangs is entirely correct that Saizo/Kaze were the first non-Cavalier Cain/Abel duo.
Mae and Boey fit the achetype, to an extent. His robes were blue but he DID have green hair, so I GUESS you can give him a pass. Mae had red from the beginning, I think. They also possessed common parts of the archetype like being friends from before they joined and, to further cement it, joined at the same time (which, although they don't always do this, it's fairly common with notable ones being Sain and Kent and the original Cain and Abel).
*setting self on fire intensifies*
TheRedScizor
Huh? Why?
it's not arson if you're doing it for your liege
Saizo also reveals some of his history with Mozu as the two of them talk about fish and ways of cooking it
You made a mistake Mangs, it's Conquest where Saizo can be killed, not Birthright.
Inb4 reupload
Yeah I know
Mangs You still get 5 POINTS
Literally unwatchable.
Well technically he can be killed in Birthright if your name happens to be Mangs.
Aren't saizo and kaze non identical twins and came out first thus the title went to him
snowy leopard They are twins lol
When I played conquest on Lunatic, I had incredible RNG. In the map where saizo helps you, I managed to clear the map of enemies and keep saizo alive. His last target was the boss, and he hit a 3% crit with a 45% chance to hit. He truly avenged his father
12:27 *he's a GREEN unit*
Mario Mario
Yes, an ally
Joshua Manjarrez Looks like someone doesn't get the meme.
saizo makes a good butler so he can put that suprising mag growth to use healing and it makes his magic shuriken thingy even stronger

These videos make me so happy to learn about different FE characters. Mangs this series is always amazing. Could you do a spotlight on Mia or Seth?
"Kaze and Saizo are the first members of the Cain and Abel archetype who are not Cavaliers"
Are you sure about that? Or is Gaiden finally been realized as not being a Fire Emblem Title?
Python and Forsyth weren't Cain and Abels in Gaiden. That only happened in the remake, which was released after Fates.
I believe he's referring to Lukas and Forsyth, my man. And even then, Forsyth lacked the iconic Green armour of the Abel archetype and other features, so it's debatable.
HOWEVER, there WAS a set of characters who did fit the bill: Mae and Boey. They kept the attire and general feel of the archetype (like prior knowledge of each other) and, to boot, joined at the same time.

Anna - going over every single appearance within the series for an >1hour spotlight.
Maybe consider doing a spotlight on Noire in the future?
Yes! My fav child unti!
no
Mekkah's favorite character, no doubt.
Black Knight please? We haven't had a boss spotlight since Arvis i think and it would be pretty nice to have one
Thanks for the video. I'm glad you touched on him!
What about Lukas and Forsyth? I'm pretty sure they're a Cain/Abel archetype.
Hmm, yeah you might be right on that one.
Mangs
Lucky Crit also thinks that Mae and Boey are the Cain and Abel of Celica's route
No. They're not *an* archetype, they are part *of* an archetype.
Only in echoes
7:03 it’s Conquest
Aside from that, great spotlight as always!
Another amazing episode mangs. I love watching these episodes. It give more life to one of the series I truly love!
I got a stat-screwed corrin, kaze, kagero, and oboro. Saizo became one of my best units because of this.
HOLY SHIT MY BOY. I didn't even need to pay for this. Thanks for the new years gift, Mangs. Much love.
If Saizo mask was a helmet he would be Darth Vader.
Many say that Ryoma is the god of Birthright, but in truth, this title goes to Saizo. You get him very early on and has direct access to the best class (ninja), weapon (shuriken) and skill (replicate). Not only that, but he starts with C rank with shuriken and has an actual magic growth which makes him an effective flame shuriken user. 1-2 range without drawback which can target res or def just break the game.
You're still comparing him to Ryoma. The lobster is the king of Birthright by a landslide. Next would be Corrin
Even if you say ninja is best, Kaze and Kagero are much better. Kaze has lots of res bulk and Kagero hits like a truck, capable of capping strength before promotion.
Flannnel Part of the reason why
Ryoma is so busted are his base stats and skills, giving him incredible out if the box usability which Saizo doesn't have.
Saizo works wonders as Oni Chieftain and Grandmaster as well.
Another great spotlight great job mangs!
TIME FOR MAYHEM
SAIZO THE FIFTH STRIKES
Saizo is my favorite Fire Emblem character. Thank you so much for this! :)
Thank you so much for doing a video on Saizo, Mangs. He is my favorite Fates character!
Ah, one of the few good fates characters.
well...
Now that I say this, Fates actually has a lot of really good characters if you ignore the ones with overdone jokes and/or tropes (such as Peri, Arthur, Camilla etc.). Also the story sometimes ruins characters (looking at you Xander).
Torgor
Camilla and Peri have great backstory potential
FE Fates is named "FE Wasted Potential because IS is lazy" in Japan. Did you know that?
IMO, Arthur should not be categorized with the likes of Peri. His gimmick is highly prevalent, but it does not drag characters down like Peri. In his case, I think it to be a more endearing gimmick. He has to deal with laughably unlucky situations daily, yet manages to stay strong throughout. In a land as dark and dreary as Nohr filled with equally as bleak people, he stands out.
On top of that, we actually understand what he means by justice in his Beruka support, and it shows that he’s a genuinely nice person who perseveres in spite of his horrible luck and the state of his kingdom.
We even get some backstory and character development in his support with Azura, and I love it dearly.
He’s certainly not deep and a joke character for certain, but in his case I believe it is done well.
The Rape Face Dorcas has a character, it was odd marketing that caused him to become a meme. He doesn’t have a gimmick in his supports and such.
Saizo is actually his name, given to the first born of each generation of his clan. His father was named Saizo, he was named Saizo, and his son, Asugi, is named Saizo.
I would love a bartre spotlight
Another great spotlight! I hope you do Kagero soon to finish off the Ninja trio. Or even Jakob since you've done Dwyer!
To be fair about Saizo
It really isn't about being sociable it's about knowing how to get people to do what you like, like manipulate or just plain acting, either way most ninja's are good with emotions and feeling and getting people to do what you want
Wrong
Haven’t watched you in awhile. Happy to know you’re still around!
:)
Another awesome spotlight. Thank you Mangs!
Your spotlight vids are amazing. Do more
Hell Yeah!!! Ive been waiting for Saizo for a while and now I am happy!
Let's see Soths spotlight
You underrate Saizo's bulk.
I'm waiting for an elincia Spotlight
Or Kelik from the last promise *heheheheheheh*
His birth name was Saizo the 5th. It was never implied that it wasn’t his name. Sure, Asugi exists, but it seems like his name was Saizo the 6th, but he changed it.
I always do like your Fire Emblem spotlights, not only very entertaining but also enlightening since I'm replying Fates again. As a suggestion, can we have a spotlight of Felicia perhaps?
Mangs : char. Spotlight
Ghast: support science
I like both of these amazing content
I don't really like any fates characters, but Saizo is neat.
Great video Mangs! tbh i never use Saizo so i didnt know most of that, also id like to request Eliwood for a spotlight, hes a bad unit but a great and well written character.
I think you are severely underrating Saizo as a unit. He is one of the top 5 units in Birthright. Birthright is a game with a high densitiy of not very powerful units, many of which have 1-2 range weapons, and Saizo is you best 1-2 range unit until Ryoma joins. Even after that, he still has access to the best weapon type in the game and remains useful for debuffing and poisoning. He is better than Kaze because Kaze is just not powerful enough to oneround many enemies and also lacks the defense to survive on enemy phase. Saizo is not as fast, but still fast enough to double most enemies with pair ups and other boosts.
Also, during the late-game, he's a great Spy Shuriken user. Since that weapon doesn't double, Saizo tends to do the most damage with it (although, pair-up attack, debuffs, and poison strike are what you're mainly using it for). And about half of the enemies at that stage of the game will most likely be doubled by Saizo.
sain or Kent in FE blazing blade
Thank you for this!
Didn’t FE2/15 have Cain and Abel archetypes who were’n’t cavs? Two pairs in fact?
Forsyth wasn't green in the original game. They changed it for Echoes.
You left out Saizo being in love with Orochi since they were kids
lol saizo seems to be my spirit animal
Almost* every character of the Fates roaster is good.
*Mozu in Conquest
He kind of reminds me of Saber.
Both are also hot beefcakes
They also have deep fucking voices
The Rape Face What does the "v" mean?
The Cringe Lord of Time and Space I am guessing it means in v (be) for
Honestly kind of wished you talked abit about his support with Mozu.
It's one of the few times where Saizo is actually friendly throughout the supports. It's incredibly sweet.
For someone missing the use of his right eye, that's some insane Skl!
Wait..but aren't Forsyth and Lukas the first of the Cain and Abel archetype? Or are they. It considered to be that in garden?
Fire Emblem Garden: Shadows of Fruit Trees
In Gaiden, Forsyth didn't had his green attire like it does in Echoes, so I guess that's why he isn't considered.
Funny enough Mae and Boey had red and green attires (somewhat) in Gaiden, which would kind of make them the Cain and Abel of Gaiden.
Dakon Requiem oh yeah. The gaiden art design was all over the place.
Finally, my suggestion worked. If you're wondering, the comment featured in the video was about 3rd-7th time saying Saizo, so that's why I yelled it.
Im hoping you will maybe do Merric it would be cool to see☺ Your character spotlights are very interesting keep up the good work!👍
-Saizo IS he's real name, same goes with Asugi's
-He died in conquest, not Birthright
-Lukas and Forsyth were the firsts Cain/Abel archetype that weren't Cavaliers
TheOmegaGreen X Um no? Forsyth was purple in Gaiden, try again.
If you hadn't done it yet, do Raigh. He has some of the month st interesting supports in Fe 6!
Could do a spotlight about Jagen or Gordin please
Shut up Tobin
FIVE POINTS!
I been waiting for this thank mangs happy New year
May I suggest Lewyn as one of your future spotlights? He is easily one of the most interesting characters in the entire series, both as a person as well as a combat unit.
Great Spotlight! Please do one for Sara of Thracia 776
KAMIKAZE! I will never forget that time then blazingegg said that.
Love your videos! Question, did you do Frederick from FEA? I don't know if I missed it or it doesn't exsist >v
People who actually think Kaze and Kagero are better units than Saizo have either never actually used him, or are just bad at FE.
I found my nose boy.
Chroi
i like using kaze because he is playable in all routes and always obtained very early on.
not to mention he has high skill and speed which is what a ninja needs to be a ninja. Fast and accurate.
He is also the father of midori.
another strong unit if used correctly (heck, give her salvage blow so she can almost always get a weapon upon killing an enemy as her personal skill gains 20% to luck based skills. very useful on conquest because its the only way to get iron hoshidian weapons or increase the amount of gold obtained as each sell for 500 per weapon and doesn't require DLCs, just have kaze marry the female avatar with oni savage class.)
Although kaze has low def, he has high RES and avoid which makes him a mage killer and Dodge unit.
Kaze is truly the best ninja but saizo is still useful.
i never bothered using kagero as she isn't the game she should be in to be useful aka conquest as it spams alot of ninjas so yeah.
Maybe a Felicia Spotlight Someday?
Please do Kagero! I think she’s a really interesting character, that is really overlooked due to her character design
*me trying to think of a comment that will get me pinned early*
Eliweed *success*
Not
Eliweed LoL you got unpinned. Mangs is a savage
The Rape Face ;-;
IM A GREEN UNIT!
*Walks straight into an enemy and dies*
Saizo × Beruka in a nutshell=.....................
That conversation was actually completely different in Japan. It was about the number of people they had killed or something.
K
CatManThree goes meow And that is why I didn't like Fates' localization.
I smiled too much with the "Green unit" bit
MICIAIAH
Always nice to see these
How about some Gerik?
Make my Boyd !
I know this isn't gonna be a highly requested one, but I would love to see Felicia if you haven't done here yet.
I married Saizo in my Birthright run, giving Corrin +Skill/-Res. Asugi and Kana were nightmares. It was /great./
Omg I married saizo too. My corrin was +skill/-hp. Asugi was a monster swordmaster lol
Do weed girl Setsuna
You should totally do a spotlight on Anri. The one character we hardly know about. Lol
I love the videos so much it's fun to learn about the units that you might look over .
But hey since this is about fates is female corrin cannon Beacuse of the whole warriors thing or..... not
Mangs, can i make a suggestion? With Future spotlights, would it be possible if you give them a 5* you keep them to the gold stars, 4* are the silver ones, and 3* are the bronze ones? it'd be cooler that way
I like to a character Spotlight on Lon'qu from Awakening, he's a really cool character.
I love this series
So, at some point in the future (and I dont think you've done these characters but I could be wrong)
Could you do one of these four characters?
Virion
Gaius
Panne
Or Lissa
Thank you, love youe videos
Sakura is actually balanced in both magic and stength. Having her as a mother to Asugi doesnt really sacrafice strength for him.
Lil mistake:
The first Cain-Abel characters that aren't cavalry are in Gaiden:
-Lukas/Forsyth
-Mae/Boey
Is it just me or does Boey wearing green and Mae having a red chest plate remind me of the Cain and Abel archetype?
Do Echidna next, I really like her but alot of people dont.
The Rape Face thanks, your opinion is bad too
7:00
You mean conquest right?
Saizo blows himself up?
SAIZO IS LORENZ CONFIMED
Omg yaas! Do Fir next!
