The Male Martial Artist is a Humanoid class in Disgaea: Hour of Darkness and its remakes. The Martial Artist is known for being a starter class with a high counter and movement rate, along with being great with Fists. A downside of this class, however, is that their Defense and Resistance often lags behind all their other stats, and the Aptitudes of these stats is low even for the higher tiers as well; so while they can cause a lot of damage, they also often can't take a hit, leaving them wide-open to being destroyed by strong attacks, especially from Magic users.
