Saizo the Fifth, more commonly referred to as simply Saizo (Japanese: サイヅウ Saizou), is a character in Fire Emblem Fates. He is a ninja, and an underling under direct command of Ryoma. Saizo forms the red-green duo with his brother, Kaze, despite not being cavaliers. His personality contrasts his brother; while Kaze is calm, Saizo is hot-blooded and quick to become incensed.
