GENERAL/STORY:
Kazuki is a member
of the Kazama ninja clan and the brother of Sougetsu and Hazuki. He wields
the power of flames for his skills. He tends to act before thinking. When
his younger sister Hazuki was kidnapped by Amakusa,
he left his clan in order to save his sister. But in doing so, his clan
ordered his brother Sogetsu to
find and kill the escaped ninja. Both him and Sougetsu eventually met at
Amakusa's castle. There, Kazuki defeated Amakusa and was able to save his
sister. Sougetsu, on the other hand, stayed behind to fight Zankuro.
Since then, he and Hazuki live a life of running from his clan. His father
was killed by Yuga.

REVIEW:
What do you get when
you add Fire + Ninja? ...Kazuki, a fire ninja. Aha. Heh, maybe he's not the most
imaginative design, but they gave him enough unique moves and a suiting
personality to make him a successful design in the series, and a somewhat unorthodox ninja design.
To me, his design became slightly stale in the later Samurai Shodown games
(mainly because they weren't that great), but his original appearance in
SS4 was no doubt the best.
