Shiro: Second Generation 2

Learn all about Shiro, Ryoma's son, in Fire Emblem Fates: Revelation. Discover his stats, growth rates, classes, and why he's a top-tier child unit!

Alright, let's talk about Shiro! He's Ryoma's son, and honestly, he's a pretty awesome kid. He looks up to his dad, Ryoma, but also sees him as a rival, which is kinda cool. He's super friendly, but don't let that fool you – he's really competitive, especially when it comes to things like arm wrestling. Sometimes he gets himself into a bit of a pickle because of that competitive streak, but overall, he's a solid unit to have on your team.

Shiro's got some seriously great stat growth rates, much like his dad. He's a bit lacking in the magic department (0% growth, yikes!), but that's a small price to pay for his fantastic health and strength. His speed is pretty average, but his defenses are surprisingly good, especially considering how strong he is. Honestly, there's no real reason *not* to use Shiro. Plus, having Samurai as his innate secondary class is a huge bonus. He's basically a self-sufficient powerhouse right out of the box, just like Ryoma. The only real edge Ryoma has is that legendary sword, the Raijinto, which Shiro doesn't start with.

Shiro doesn't need a lot of investment to become a real asset to your army. He's actually one of the only characters who automatically starts as a Spear Fighter, alongside Oboro. This makes him incredibly valuable. He's easily one of the best child units you can recruit, and he'll definitely pull his weight in your battles. You really can't go wrong with Shiro!
