Yep, Imo, Sendai is the best melee opponnent in the beggining of the game except for Greywolf, if you choose to fight him, or even encounter him at all. This fight is really made a challenge though, by the two archers she has with her, Delgod and Alexander.

Since melee works best against ranged and vice versa, it is best to have several weaker characters attack Sendai with ranged weapons and have sevral tanks with many healing potions run up and attack the two archers with melee.

If possible you should posistion your ranged attackers on the ledge that is to the left of where Sendai and her freinds are, as it will make it harder for Sedai to reach you there. Be careful to ensure that your tanks will still be able to get to the archers easily though.

In the end though, this fight is really well worth it. The extra arrows are not really worth all that much, but can be helpful in some of the tougher battles. The leather armor can be used for a while if you have a thief, and then makes a nice down payment on the Shadow armor later in the game. If you use Sendai's sword on one character and The long sword of Varscona on another, you can have a couple of kick ass melee characters pretty early in the game.
