Who is Sayu and what does she look like?
Sayu is described as a ninja tanuki whom Ayaka finds cute and constantly gives her candy. Sayu looks like a small child who wears a sweatshirt with a long tail. You can check out her style below thanks to @Lumie on Twitter.

As we wrote earlier, Sayu is a 4-star anemo user and will be a strong support with powerful healing and anemo damage for any Genshin Impact team. In addition, she masterfully wields a two-handed sword.
She is an Inazuman native character who draws inspiration from both ninja and tanuki, and is a trickster who values sleep above all else. Players can learn about her elemental skill, explosion, and details about her set as new leaks about this Genshin Impact character have just been released.
Sayu's talents and constellations
Ninjutsu Shiyumatsu-ban | |
Normal attack: Up to four slashing blows with a sword. Charged Attack: A spinning attack against surrounding enemies that consumes stamina continuously. After spinning, performs an additional powerful sword attack. Plunging Attack: Swiftly falls to the ground, attacking all enemies on the way. Upon landing, deals area damage. |
YooHoo Art: Fuin Dash | |
Yuhu's Special Ninja Art Technique! Sayu rolls up into Fufu's Windwheel and slams into opponents at high speed, dealing Anemo damage to them. After the skill ends, Sayu performs Fufu Whirlwind Strike, which deals AoE damage to Anemo. Quick press: Transforms into Fufu's Windwheel form, rolls forward a short distance, and performs Fufu's Whirlwind Kick. Long press: Rolls continuously in Fufu's Windwheel Form and increases Sayu's interruption resistance while she is in this form. During this time, Sayu can choose the direction of the roll, and can also use the skill again to prematurely exit Fufu's Windwheel Form and perform a stronger Fufu Whirlwind Kick. Long pressing this skill can activate elemental absorption. This skill can last for a maximum of 10 seconds, after which it goes into cooldown mode. The longer Sayu stays in Fufu's Windwheel Form, the longer the cooldown will be. Element Absorption: While in Fufu's Windwheel form, Sayu can come into contact with Hydro, Pyro, Cryo, or Electro elements, causing Fufu's Windwheel and Fufu's Whirlwind Kick to deal additional damage with that element. The skill can only absorb one element per use. | |
Sayu can use this skill with his eyes closed. It was originally created as a means of escape, but now that Sayu has the Eye of God, she can cause a lot of trouble for her enemies. |
Yuhu Art: Mujina Madness | |
Another Incredible Yoohoo Art Technique! She calls on a pair of skillful hands to help Sayu. Deals Anemo damage to surrounding enemies and heals all nearby squad members. The amount of HP restored depends on Sayu's attack power. This skill then summons Muji-Mouji Daruma. Muji Muji Daruma At certain intervals, depending on the situation, Daruma will perform one of the following actions: • If nearby characters' HP is above 70%, he will attack the nearest enemy, dealing Anemo damage. • If there are characters nearby with HP equal to 70% or less, he heals the character with the least remaining HP. If there are no enemies nearby, and the HP of nearby characters is above 70%, then he simply heals the characters. | |
People who don't know anything about ninjutsu love to watch Sayu demonstrate this skill, and some even try to learn from her. But Sayu herself just wants to be allowed to sleep and not be disturbed. |
