"No matter who may be, one is evil from the moment he cuts down a person."

A refined man who admires the beauties of nature and wraps his body in an elegant battle surcoat.

Aloof from the world and having a somewhat elusive personality but,
as expected, he is a warrior who likes fair and square contests.

Due to living in an age where casualties happened in a daily basis, his perspectives about life and death may also seem cold-hearted for a modern person.

Tsubame Gaeshi

Anti-Unit Magic Sword. Maximum Targets: 1 person.
A sword technique that rivals Noble Phantasms, attained only with human techniques.
A special move that simultaneously cuts apart an enemy with three circles.
Seems to be one of the things that can be called multi-dimensional refraction phenomenon.

Originally, it was something developed to cut a swallow flying on the sky.

He himself calls it a secret sword technique, but on the eyes of the surroundings it is unmistakably a magic sword. For that is not the work of man. He himself says that it was developed for cutting a flying swallow, but,

of course, it is possible to cut a swallow even without a mystic technique such as this. Rather, this is a story about the lack of compromise, and also, how much extreme talents for martial arts was possessed by this swordsman - who

reached the blessings of the sword just for such a reason.

"The eyes grow used to the attacks"; maybe it means that such inferior sword swings are not unleashed.

Unlike Musashi, Sasaki Kojirou was a fictional swordsman with no basis in reality.

This “Sasaki Kojirou” is nothing more than a nameless swordsman who was called forth because of his ability to recreate the legendary Swallow Counter.

Of course, as a genius swordsman who was unknown in life, Kojirou’s thoughts on being summoned to fulfill the role of a fictional Heroic Spirit were, “This too, is fine.”
