I like something that plays with their First Strike mythos and I remember in the UA discussion thread someone posted a really powerful line attack for a more anime-style Samurai moment.
That gives me an idea. I have no idea what a good name for this ability would be, but here it goes:
Samurai Dash
At 15th level, you can dash through your foes supernaturally quick while making a deadly attack. As an action, you can move up to your speed and move through your enemies' spaces without penalty. This movement does provoke attacks of opportunity. After this movement, you make a single attack roll and apply it to any enemy whose space you moved through. Each target that would be hit by the attack takes your normal weapon damage + half your fighter level (rounded up). You can only hit each target with this attack once, and you cannot end your movement in a creature's space.
If you are hit and take damage by any attacks of opportunity during this movement, your damage against each target increases by +4 per successful attack made against you.
Once you have used this ability, you must wait a short or long rest before you can use it again.
