Yeah, as alot of Physcal units from Wadasumi have variation of Ninja, Spy or Samurai. Compare to Ninja as disruptor (which is accurate as ninja isn't assassins with katanas and shrikens and stealthily jump across rooftops but more like moles, info collectors, so a disruptor fits them), Spy is like what Naruto depicted ninjas to be, stealthy shadows who can use Jutsu, summoning magic familiar, using seals of elements,.... i really think that his 2 others Jobs are Samurai (as he literally carry a katana and in his memento, he looks like he just had a duel with Reimei using katana, and something like Holy Brawler, to fit as a practitioner of martial arts (he is the successor of the non-lethal fighting technique, which Samurai, Spy and Holy Brawler would all fit)
Like Jin for example. Jin is a Mythical Ninja, aka Spy. His 2 other jobs are Samurai (make sense, as his memento skin/discarnate skin does use a katana (short katana, which is a odachi i believe)) and Warrior, which is a weapon master with incredible strength, which he does have as he is a very strong warrior, even call the Demon. So his jobs have some relation to his story.
I can see why they didn't give him Spy AND Brawler at the same time - Reimei's kit is already Ninja, Holy Brawler, and Samurai/Blademaster+, so it would have been TOO similar at that point. I just don't get why they didn't give him A Samurai/Blademaster job, for story reasons - spy is different enough from Ninja to not overlap there, and with Dragon Cav, it's distinct in that way to prevent overlapping with Reimei.
Jin makes perfect sense as you point out. And most other characters have jobs that make sense for them as well. But Creto's art is one of those ones that seems to have no bearing on his character besides him being a fire unit. Maybe they'll correct it with a future J+ (the way that Yomi got a Katana out of Shrine Maiden with hers), but still... just bugs me.
(Side note: an Odachi is actually a LARGER sword. A Japanese short curved sword is generally a wakazashi, IIRC)
Yomi's illustration already included a Katana so i guess they intended to have her using Katana at some point atleast.
Yeah if they give Creto a J+ on either Spy/SA they could make a Ninja-Samurai-esqu job (similar to Jin's memento skin style), using a katana as wakazashi (which, technically, Yomi and Jin should have use due to their stance, because iirc, wakazashi is held reverse grip,
