なのだが―――
|def = A swordsman described as a worthy rival of one of Japan's prominent master fencers - [[Miyamoto Musashi]].<br/>
Mastering the Ganryū-style at a young age, a genius swordsman said to find no equal no matter where he went.<br/>
And yet---
|ndef=
A swordsman known as the rival of Musashi Miyamoto, one of the greatest swordmasters of Japan.<br/>
A true prodigy who mastered Ganryu at a young age, and seen as someone without match.<br/>

Alignment: Neutral-Evil<br/>

"If you kill someone, no matter who you are, you are evil."
|jb2 = 
花鳥風月を愛で、雅な陣羽織に身を包む風流人。<br/>
飄々とどこかつかみ所のない性格をしているが、<br/>
やはり武人であり、正々堂々とした勝負を好む。<br/>
人死にが日常だった時代で生きたからか、<br/>
その死生観は現代人には冷酷なものに見える事も。
|b2 = A refined man who admires the beauties of nature and wraps his body in an elegant battle surcoat.<br/>
Aloof from the world and having a somewhat elusive personality but, as expected, he is a warrior who likes fair and square contests.<br/>
Due to living in an age where casualties happened on a daily basis, his perspectives about life and death may also seem cold-hearted for a modern person.
|nb2=
Admirer of the beauty of nature, a tasteful man who dresses elegantly.<br/>
Although he is detached from the world and has a care-free persona, he is still a true warrior at heart and prefers to fight someone fair and square.<br/>
Due to living in a time when human death was common, his views on life and death sometimes feels merciless to modern-day people.

○燕返し<br/>
対人魔剣。最大捕捉・１人。<br/>
宝具に匹敵する、人の技だけで到達した剣技。<br/>
相手を三つの円で同時に断ち切る絶技。<br/>
多重次元屈折現象、と呼ばれる物の一つらしい。<br/>
もともとは空を飛ぶ燕を斬るために編み出されたもの。
|b3 = '''Tsubame Gaeshi'''<br/>
Anti-Unit Mystic Sword. Maximum Targets: 1 person.<br/>
A sword technique that rivals Noble Phantasms, attained only with human techniques.<br/>
A special move that simultaneously cuts apart an enemy with three slashes.<br/>
Seems to be one of the things that can be called multi-dimensional refraction phenomenon.<br/>
Originally, it was something developed to cut a swallow flying through the sky.
|nb3=
Swallow Reversal<br/>
Anti-Personnel Mystic Sword.<br/>
Captures a maximum of 1 target.<br/>
A sword skill so refined it reaches the realm of a Noble Phantasm.<br/>
An ultimate technique that slashes the enemy from three angles simultaneously, it is a Multi-Dimensional Refraction Phenomenon.<br/>
Originally, this skill was created to cut down a flying swallow.
|jb4 = 
本人は『燕返し』を秘剣と呼ぶが、<br/>
周囲から見れば紛れもない魔剣である。<br/>
人間業ではないのだから。<br/>
空を飛ぶ燕を斬るために編み出した、と本人は言うが、<br/>
無論、ここまでの魔技がなくとも燕は斬れる。<br/>
むしろそれだけの理由で剣の冥加に達したこの剣士が、<br/>
どれほど妥協せず、また、極まった武の才を持っていたかという話だ。
|b4 = He himself calls it a secret sword technique, but to the eyes of those surrounding, it is unmistakably a magic sword.<br/>
For that is not the work of man.<br/>
He himself says that it was developed for cutting a flying swallow, but, of course, it is possible to cut a swallow even without a mystic technique such as this.<br/>
Rather, this is a story about the lack of compromise, and also, how much extreme talent for martial arts was possessed by this swordsman - who reached the blessings of the sword just for such a reason.
|nb4=
He calls "Swallow Reversal" a secret sword skill.<br/>
But to those around him, it is without a doubt in the realm of Mystic Sword skills as it cannot be achieved by normal humans.<br/>
He says he only created the skill to cut down flying swallows, but you don't need something like this to cut down a bird.<br/>
On the other hand, he must be blessed with both the talent in swordsmanship, and absolute determination in order to refine a skill for such a simple purpose.

○[[Knowledge of the Sōwa|宗和の心得]]：Ｂ<br/>
相手に同じ技、同じ剣技を何度使用しても<br/>
命中精度が下がらない特殊な技能。<br/>
攻撃が見切られなくなる。<br/>
“攻撃に目が慣れる”などという<br/>
下手な剣筋は繰り出さない、という事か。
|b5 = '''[[Knowledge of the Sōwa]]: B'''<br/>
A unique ability that prevents drop on hit-accuracy no matter how much the same technique, the same sword skill is employed against an opponent.<br/>
It becomes impossible to see through attacks.<br/>
"The eyes grow used to the attacks"; maybe it means that such inferior sword swings are not unleashed.
|nb5=
Knowledge of the Sowa: B<br/>
Even if the same skill or sword skill is used on the opponent multiple times, the accuracy of the attack will never decrease because the opponent will never see through the attack.<br/>
What this means is that he will never use the same attack pattern twice, so the opponent can never "get used to it."

佐々木小次郎とは、武蔵と違いその実像が<br/>
定かではない架空の剣士である。<br/>
この“佐々木小次郎”は小次郎の伝説にある<br/>
『燕返し』が再現できるという点から<br/>
呼び出された名も無い剣士にすぎない。<br/>
架空の英霊を埋めるために呼び出された、<br/>
生涯無名であった天才剣士の心境は―――<br/>
やはり、「それも良し」なのだろう。
|ex = Unlike Musashi, Sasaki Kojirō was a fictional swordsman with no basis in reality.<br/>
This "Sasaki Kojirō" is nothing more than a nameless swordsman who was called forth because of his ability to recreate the legendary "Swallow Reversal."<br/>
Of course, as a genius swordsman who was unknown in life, Kojirō's thoughts on being summoned to fulfill the role of a fictional Heroic Spirit were, "This too, is fine."
|nex=
Sasaki Kojirou, unlike Musashi, is an imaginary swordsman whose real life events were never completely proven.<br/>
This "Sasaki Kojirou" is merely a nameless swordsman, called forth to fill the role of the legendary swordsman because he could recreate the skill of the "Swallow Reversal."<br/>
His purpose for materialization was to fill in for an imaginary figure, yet what went through the mind of this nameless prodigy is...<br/>
"Well, I guess this is fine."
|apjex=
むめいサーヴァント<br/>
なんかすごい剣技を修得しているが特に自慢してこない風流サムライ。<br/>カルデアでいちばんサーヴァントライフを満喫しているかんじ。
|apex=
Nameless-Type Servant<br/>
He seems to have mastered some insane sword technique, but he doesn't brag about it. What a cool samurai. He is quite enjoying his life as a Servant in Chaldea.
