Sawada Keizaburo—better known by his moniker, The Bird of Darkness—is a fighter affiliated with Murder Music in the Kengan matches. He represented the organization during the most recent Kengan Annihilation Tournament.
He grew up in a family of respected traditional Japanese dancers and was groomed as the heir to continue the lineage. Something changed that trajectory, though. An unspecified incident led him to pivot toward ballet instead, which eventually put him on the path to becoming a fighter. His high school years at Karei were formative in a different way—that's where he first crossed paths with Rihito, and the two developed an intense, bitter rivalry that's stuck with them since.
