Character details

The most famous monk in Japanese history, who earned his fame with Minamoto-no-Yoshitsune.

Even today, he is loved in various stories told through Kabuki and Joruri.

Many phrases stem from him, such as Benkei's guardian stance (standing firm with feet apart), or Benkei's Crying Spot (that point below the knee on the calf).

Profile 1

Height/Weight: 199cm, 88kg

Origin: Gikeiki, The Tale of the Heike

Region: Japan

Alignment: Chaotic-Good

Sub-Attribute: Human

Gender: Male

The shin isn't my weak spot, it just hurts a lot if you kick me there.

Profile 2

...Musashibou Benkei is a story.

Dauntless yet loyal, he is a big, strong man. Fought many battles together with Minamoto-no-Yoshitsune, and died standing like a man until the very last. Truly the ideal figure of a hero.

Profile 3

...Musashibou Benkei is a hero. If he wields a naginata, weak soldiers' bodies will fly, and with one roar even hungry wolves will scamper away.

He is rumored to be the child of an ogre.

Profile 4

...Musashibou Benkei is someone hard to come by. Unlike myself.

He's different, but as long as I'm claiming

to be Benkei, I won't let anyone tell me that I'm weak.

That should be a consolation for me chickening out.

Profile 5

His real name is Hitachibou Kaison.

He was one of Yoshitsune's vassals, but fled from battle when Yoshitsune and his servants met their deaths.

Deeply embarrassed, he wandered Japan as a storyteller, telling the story of Yoshitsune and Benkei.

Additional profile

His wish for the Holy Grail is to make the courageous name of Benkei his for eternity.

That wish is already half granted, but Kaison is still deeply embarrassed, and will tell the story for eternity.

Hmph? What is it?
Bond Level 2
I see. I'm game... Would you like to try some sumo wrestling?
Bond Level 3
It's ok. I may not look it, but I'm good with kids.
Bond Level 4
I'm known for my muscular body. Hahaha!
Bond Level 4
Ah, Master. You have some business with me? If you desire to go to paradise, would you care to practice with me?
Bond Level 5
Oh, I see. Then would you care to dance with me?
Bond Level 5 (After Final Ascension)
I'm sure you're aware that I am not Musashibou Benkei. But it seems a bit late for me to change names at this point, so I would like to remain as Benkei. Now then, shall we have a chat about Lord Yoshitsune and Lord Benkei? Perhaps over some alcohol...er, juice.
Conversation 1
Hmph. A rather ominous wind is blowing.
Conversation 2
The Master I serve is Yoshitsune, but I would never disobey your orders.
Conversation 3
What? A fight with Yoshitsune? I don't mind. The problem is whether I can win or not.
Likes 1
You're asking me what I like? I prefer humorous stories to frightening ones. They warm the heart.
Likes 2
Hannyatou is nice... It's very nice... Ah, and I do not mind training and practicing my discipline as well.
Dislikes 1
You want to know what I dislike? Heartbreak, tragedy and the like do not please me.
Dislikes 2
Something I am not comfortable with, something I do not like... Ah yes, I do have one thing! The sight of Lord Ushiwaka being spritely and agile terrifies me the most! None of her subordinates have any idea what outrageous demands she will make next.
About the Holy Grail
If this "Holy Grail" can truly grant any wish, then I will ask no further questions. Please let my wish be granted.
Conversation 4
Ah, Lord Ushiwaka. I've remembered an urgent matter I need to take care of, so I will be taking my leave! Eh? I need to accompany you in your training? Well you see, my chronic bone fractures have started acting up...!
Conversation 5
Lord Ushiwaka...I hear you changed into a swimsuit, but for some reason you still look the same as before. Hahaha! ...Um, Lord Ushiwaka, are you planning on breakdancing on top of my head or something? Do you...think my head would survive that?
Conversation 6
Ah, so you are Osakabehime. I hear Lord Ushiwaka has been under your care. But recently Lord Ushiwaka's been treating me a bit harshly. She keeps saying things like "characters in fighting games react within 1/60 of a second, but you can't. That's a problem." But I'm the one who's troubled by a statement like that...
