Season 58, Week 2
Masaji Kato
(Shadow Hearts: Covenant)
 
Most would see a downgrade to Heavy after many seasons ranked in Godlike as an insult, a sign that you just can't cut it anymore. Masaji Kato, a man who went from military flunky to grand sorcerer in all of a year, just sees it as a sign he needs to work harder and earn his way back to the top. Lloyd Irving is hardly a worthy test of his skills, a hero with little in the way of status protection or blitzing prowess, but a small start is still a start. Any of Kato's signature Howl attacks should be sufficient to put Lloyd away in this battle, and after that the return to Godlike begins.

Lloyd Irving is ready to take down another threat to world peace! Kato may have delusions of grandeur, but Lloyd is taking notes from Dekar: It's time to invoke "Too Stupid To Lose!" And unlike Dekar, Lloyd actually has something to back up his power - speed. And there's plenty of EX Gems around for everyone in Symphonia to get status immunity - Lloyd has nothing to worry about if Kato can't even rely on his underhanded status tricks! Lloyd's been eyeing those sacred Japanese artifacts that Kato bandies around - they'd make great presents to give Colette, after all.
