Personality

Kagetsu is bright, energetic, and friendly.[1] Though some people perceive his affability to be ingenuine at times, he is honest with his feelings and does his utmost to be a fair person.[2] He loves to battle against powerful opponents both on and off the battlefield, desiring to challenge Diamant and Timerra in friendly competitions.[2] Since his mother was a shrine maiden, Kagetsu has the ability to predict the future, though his predictions are often trivial, such as being able to foresee upcoming weather.[2] He loves onigiri the most out of all soldiers in the army.[2]

Endings

Onigiri Samurai Kagetsu
Kagetsu disappeared after Ivy's coronation. Some said he was off searching for a worthy opponent. In fact, he had gone home to ask his family's permission to live in Elusia and serve the queen.
Working under Ivy, he still made visits to Pale Sands, returning each time with the gift of rice.

Divine Dragon Alear & Onigiri Samurai Kagetsu
Alear became the new Divine Dragon Monarch. His/Her bonds with the rulers of each nation resulted in lasting peace.
Kagetsu made the holy land more accessible by welcoming every visitor to Lythos as a dear friend. He and the new monarch were often seen going out together.
