Biography

“ I am Musashibō Benkei, and I have been reincarnated as a spearman. ”

Unlock	Description	Translation🛈🛈|nbx= for north american localization release and |bx = for fan english translation
Default	源義経と共に活躍した、日本史上最も有名な僧兵。現代に至るまでも、歌舞伎や浄瑠璃など幅広い物語で愛されている。 弁慶の仁王立ち、弁慶の泣き所など現在に伝わっている故事も多い。	NA TL NA Localization: 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). Fan Translation: The most famous warrior monk of Japanese history, who accomplished great deeds together with Minamoto no Yoshitsune. Reaching modern times, he is loved by a wide variety of stories such as kabuki and jōruri. There is also many traditions transmitted to the present, such as Benkei's daunting pose and Benkei's weak-point.
Bond 1	身長／体重：199cm・88kg 出典：『義経記』『平家物語』 地域：日本 属性：混沌・善　　副属性：人　　性別：男性 脛は弱点ではないので蹴られると凄く痛いだけ。	NA TL NA Localization: Height/Weight: 199cm, 88kg Origin: Gikeiki, The Tale of the Heike Region: Japan Alignment: Chaotic-Good Gender: Male The shin isn't my weak spot, it just hurts a lot if you kick me there. Fan Translation: Height/Weight: 199cm ・ 88kg Source: "Gikeiki", "The Tale of the Heike" Region: Japan Alignment: Chaotic ・ Good Attribute: Man Gender: Male Since the shin is not an actual weak-point, being kicked there will only hurt like hell.
Bond 2	……武蔵坊弁慶は、物語である。 剛胆にして忠実、最強の大男。源義経と共に数多の戦を戦い抜き、最後の最後まで雄々しく散ったまさに英雄の理想像。	NA TL NA Localization: ...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. Fan Translation: ...Musashibo Benkei is a story. Valorous and faithful, the strongest great man. After fighting to the bitter end together with Minamoto no Yoshitsune in many battles, he at last fell bravely at the very end - surely the idealized image of a hero.
Bond 3	……武蔵坊弁慶は、英雄である。薙刀を振るえば、たちまち雑兵の体が吹き飛び、吼え立てれば餓えた狼とて逃げ回る。 鬼の子と噂されたのも間違いではあるまい。	NA TL NA Localization: ...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. Fan Translation: ...Musashibo Benkei is a hero. By swinging his halberd, ordinary soldiers have their bodies blown off at once; by roaring, a starving wold is put to run. It is by no accident that he was rumored to be the child of an oni.
Bond 4	……武蔵坊弁慶は、得難き存在である。 自分とは違うのだ。違うが、こうして弁慶を名乗った 以上は、誰にも弱いなどと言わせない。 それが臆病風に吹かれた自分の、せめてもの償いだろう。	NA TL NA Localization: ...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. Fan Translation: ...Musashibo Benkei is an inestimable existence. Different from me. He is different, but I have impersonated Benkei in this manner. From now on, I wont let anyone call weak. This is surely the minimum atonement that I, who once lost my nerve, can do.
Bond 5	この男の真名、常陸坊海尊（ひたちぼうかいそん）という。彼は義経の家来でありながら、義経主従が最期を遂げた戦いで逃げ出してしまう。 そのことを深く恥じた彼は、義経と弁慶の物語の語り手として、日本を旅して回るのであった。	NA TL NA Localization: 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. Fan Translation: This man's real name is Hitachibō Kaison. Despite being one of Yoshitsune's retainers, he ended up running away from the last battle carried out by Yoshitsune and his men. Deeply ashamed, he began to travel around Japan as the narrator of Yoshitsune's and Benkei's stories.
Clear Interlude 1
Extra	聖杯に託す願望は弁慶の勇名を永遠のものにすること。既にその願いは半ば叶っているのだが、深く恥じている海尊は口がある限り、永遠に語り続けるのだろう。	NA TL NA Localization: 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. Fan Translation: His wish to the Holy Grail is to make Benkei's great renown eternal. Although that wish is already half-way granted, so long the deeply ashamed Kaison has a mouth, he will probably continue to narrate eternally.
April Fool	におうだちサーヴァント 実は弁慶の偽物であるが、「弁慶殿は素晴らしい・・・・・・おっと、私が弁慶でした」とわざとらしいため、カルデアのみんなにはバレている。	Standing-Type Servant He's actually a fake Benkei, but since he always says stuff like "Lord Benkei is truly splendid... Oops, I forgot, I AM Benkei," all of Chaldea is aware of this deception.
