Genji Ability Overview | Overwatch

The former son of the master of the Shimada ninja clan, Genji was almost slain in a disagreement with his brother Hanzo over their family’s illegal businesses. On the brink of death, Overwatch saved his life by putting him through an extensive process of cyberization in exchange for his help in their operations against his family’s empire. Once repulsed by the mechanical parts of his body, Genji has made peace with himself, and in doing so has discovered a higher humanity.

Genji's new form enhanced his natural speed and agility and enhanced his superlative ninja skills. His main weapons are his arsenal of precise and deadly Shuriken, and his katana, which he uses to deflect incoming attacks. He utilizes his augmented abilities to climb walls, double jump, and deliver dashing Swift Strikes that leaves his foes bleeding. When the time comes for Genji to unleash his blade, he summons the dragon and can cut down enemies with a single slash.

I can't find the "passive" button in my keyboard

[takappa]

His dash used to have a bleeding effect

[rollsreus]

Genji are you drunk? It's ryujin no ken wo kurae

[theemperorofmemekind]

I can see the epic fights between Genji and Hanzo in the near future.

[SgerbwdGwyn]

Disappointed that his sword is exclusively Ultimate, but still fun

For those wondering, here are his quotes (UPDATED!)
Source: Own knowledge, but I think they are correct.

 身を捨てても名利は捨てず
Mi wo sutetemo myouri wa sutezu
Even if I sacrifice my body, I will never sacrifice my honor.
(opening speech)

龍撃剣
Ryuu gekiken
Dragon fencing
(ultimate start)

水のように流れ
Mizu no youni nagare
Flow like the water
(ultimate end)

始め!
Hajime!
Start!/Begin!
(deflecting bullets)

上等だ!
Joutou da!
Bring it on!
(deflecting bullets)

俺は風だ
Ore wa kaze da
I'm the wind
(closing speech)

Bonus Hanzo ultimate:
龍が我が敵を食らう
Ryuu ga waga teki wo kurau!
Let the dragon consume/devour my/our enemies!

0:35 just close your eyes and imagine

what have i done...

[TobeasJ]

The first person viewmodels and animations in this game is simply wonderful.

[aleflippy]

Not the Genji I expected...BLOOD FOR THE BUTTERFLY!!!

[ThatGrayCartoonPony]

The opening speech was beautiful. :, )

[BestAtNothing]

So badass, can't wait to try him out.. when I actually get into the beta ( ͠° ͟ʖ ͡°)

[quagenheimer]

99% of the weeaboos are going to play as him, definitely.

[SkrubDaddy]

did they take out that bleed effect on his swift strike? didn't see that on the open beta

[oli]

So you tell me that if I get a kill while his dash is on cooldown it will reset it @_@

[felipemelo]

A Cyborg Ninja? Am I the only one getting a Grey Fox vibe out of this character?

[tucci]

Dude, Blizzard is _killing_ it. All 3 of these new characters look incredible. Every character they've put out is unique and awesome.

[goofyahhbih]

0:12, Genji one-tricks :
*"wait genji has a left click????"*

[pie]

Everything about Genji, from his design (chestplates, face-shield, etc.) to his backstory (cybernetically augmented samurai) screams Raiden, especially in Revengeance.

But you know what, I'm loving every second of it.

[Joseph-xsmo]

Oh my, a cool ninja character. I wonder how he turns out in the future.
