Legendary Ryoma

Alright so, to get this out of the way... Our first Kinshi knight is not Reina but Hinoka, and then we get a Kinshi knight who wields a sword, even though they only wield lances and bows, not to mention Ryoma being a Kinshi knight is not very fitting of his title of being a samurai, that's just me though.

The main point though is that he doesn't deserve this kind of treatment, he could've came with an upgraded Raijinto so that OG Ryoma could get at least an upgrade for himself in the future or give him a unique version of Astra instead of just generic Glimmer. But instead they give him a unique B slot which is Bushido, practically the closest thing you can get as Wrath on a flier since they don't have access to that.

Because of Bushido, Ryoma yields his own niche of being the only flier that can deal +20 bonus special damage with Wo dao+Bushido combined. Raijinto to me, is not very good on this particular Ryoma, mainly because the lack of steady breath due to being a flier is rather hindering for special procs and since he's flier, he's weak to arrows which forces you to forgo his A or SS slot for Iote's shield. Wo Dao to me might just be better on him as he'll do more damage with Wo Dao+Bushido, and if you're concerned about not countering distant foes, distant counter is still a thing but not of course not everyone is gonna have it.

He's just overall pretty disappointing to me, not a fan of how they went through with this, because it feels like they didn't think this through hard enough.

Not happy with his design either kind of lazy imo what they should have done is made him a standard sword infantry and made him look like Sumeragi and gave him the Hagakure blade with built in chill atk or something like that .

DC is still the most powerful skill in the game, and the A slot is still the best skill slot, even tho the new C skills have somewhat managed to close the gap, so i severely doubt that any weapon with DC well get an upgrade anytime soon, that would be terrible for game balance.
All in all, i don't like ryoma's lazy design, but i wouldn't give an upgrade to raijinto to fix that, maybe a prf special, like they did with ike.
