Overview
Sayu is a ninja from the Shuumatsuban that is struggling with growing tall. Sayu believes that sleeping can help her growth, which is why she prefers to use her ninja techniques to hide and "laze around."
Sayu is a seemingly eternally sleep-deprived ninja who uses her skills to hide from work and responsibilities. Her height is something she's deeply unsatisfied with, believing that sleep can replenish all her energy and help her grow taller. In order to live by this principle and have as much time to nap as possible, she honed her ninjutsu to perfection.
While she is particularly renowned for her apparent laziness, the members of the Shuumatsuban know that she is loyal to their cause as she would never go against their principles and wouldn't slack off on extremely important matters. Ayaka believes that Sayu's laziness came from her sensei's abrupt departure, as she looked up to them and when they left, became lost and confused.
Of course, from Sayu's point of view, this so-called "laziness" is just better time allocation which allows her to focus on things... like sleeping and growing taller. She does not like it when people pat her head, believing that doing so impedes her growth. She tolerates headpats from both the Traveler and Yae Miko, although the latter is out of fear of retaliation by the Guuji.
While a particularly skilled ninja, Sayu usually handles reconnaissance and other miscellaneous tasks. While she is trained in combat, the arts she learned were mostly intended for stealth and evasion. She appreciates the Traveler's company, willing to work harder for their sake. While dressed as a mujina, who she finds extremely adorable, Sayu becomes angered whenever people call her a tanuki, even going as far as to attack them.
Talents
- Normal Attack: Shuumatsuban Ninja Blade
- Normal Attack: Performs up to 4 consecutive strikes.
- Charged Attack: Drains Stamina over time to perform continuous spinning attacks against all nearby enemies. At the end of the sequence, performs a more powerful slash.
- Plunging Attack: Plunges from mid-air to strike the ground below, damaging enemies along the path and dealing AoE Damage upon impact.
- Elemental Skill: Yoohoo Art: Fuuin Dash
Bye!
Gotta dash~!
Poof!
I'm outta here.
Can't catch me~!
And away I go.
Sayu curls up into a rolling Fuufuu Windwheel and smashes into enemies at high speed, dealing Anemo Damage. When the duration ends, she unleashes a Fuufuu Whirlwind Kick, dealing AoE Anemo Damage.
(Press/Tap)
Enters the Fuufuu Windwheel state, rolling forward a short distance before using the Fuufuu Whirlwind Kick.
Hold
Rolls about continuously in the Fuufuu Windwheel state, increasing Sayu's resistance to interruption while within that state.
During this time, Sayu can control the direction of her roll, and can use the skill again to end her Windwheel state early and unleash a stronger version of the Fuufuu Whirlwind Kick.
The Hold version of this skill can trigger Elemental Absorption.
This skill has a maximum duration of 10 seconds and enters Cooldown once its effects end.
The longer Sayu remains in her Windwheel state, the longer the Cooldown.
Elemental Absorption
If Sayu comes into contact with Hydro/Pyro/Cryo/Electro while in her Windwheel state, she will deal additional elemental Damage of that type. Elemental Absorption may only occur once per use of this skill.
- Elemental Burst: Yoohoo Art: Mujina Flurry
Twinjutsu!
Come on out!
Hah! ...Phew...
Deals Anemo Damage to nearby enemies and heals all nearby party members. The amount of HP restored is based on Sayu's ATK. This skill then summons a Muji-Muji Daruma.
Muji-Muji Daruma
At specific intervals, the Daruma will take one of several actions based on the situation around it:
- If the HP of nearby characters is above 70%, it will attack a nearby enemy, dealing Anemo Damage.
- If there are active characters with 70% or less HP nearby, it will heal the active character with the lowest percentage HP left. If there are no enemies nearby, it will heal active characters nearby even if they have 70% HP or more.
- 1st Ascension Passive: Someone More Capable
When Sayu triggers a Swirl reaction while active, she heals all your characters and nearby allies for 300 HP. She will also heal an additional 1.2 HP for every point of Elemental Mastery she has. This effect can be triggered once every 2 seconds.
- 4th Ascension Passive: No Work Today!
The Muji-Muji Daruma created by Elemental Burst: Yoohoo Art: Mujina Flurry gains the following effects:
- When healing a character, it will also heal characters near that healed character for 20% the amount of HP.
- Increases the AoE of its attack against enemies.
- Utility Passive: Yoohoo Art: Silencer's Secret
When Sayu is in the party, your characters will not startle Crystalflies and certain other animals when getting near them.

About Other Characters
This part is about what Sayu thinks about the other characters in Genshin Impact.
Every time she sees me she says, "Hey, little tanuki! Let's go hang out at the festival." Firstly, I'm not a tanuki. Secondly, I don't wanna go to a festival. Thirdly, she says she wants to hang out — but really, she just wants me to do a ninjutsu performance during the fireworks show. That's not even related to my work for the Shuumatsuban!
As the eldest daughter of the Kamisato Clan, she always looks very graceful and elegant. But she got one of the shrine maidens to keep tabs on me and make sure I don't slack off... Why would she do that?
Sometimes, when I'm taking a rest up in a tree, I overhear the shrine maidens talking about him. Sounds like he's pretty important and super busy most of the time. I don't get it, though — it's only work, or whatever, so why doesn't he just... not do it?
He's got a Vision, and yet for some reason he pesters me about learning ninjutsu every time I run into him. I don't know what his deal is. It's not like I'd have the time to teach him anyway, I barely get enough sleep as it is.
One time, when I woke up from an afternoon nap, I felt something warm against my back. I turned around and saw a cat curled up fast asleep. You wouldn't believe this — it had not only one, but two fluffy tails! I almost fell from the tree in surprise. I—Is this some form of ninjutsu too?
Her Excellency? Definitely not someone I'd ever get to meet. If you've got questions, maybe Miss Ayaka's the person to ask.
She's always patting me on the head... I've never bitten her, though, or even said anything, because I'm frightened of how she'd react if I stood up to her. But what am I gonna do? Because if she keeps on patting my head, I'm gonna get stuck at this height forever!
Why does he have to make such a racket? And how did he get so tall!?
Doesn't ring a bell, umm... What? Arataki Itto's little sidekick? Ugh, well she's definitely gotta be a sleep disturbance then. Birds of a feather flock together...
