Overview

Kagutsuchi
As an early unit, 
Kagutsuchi has a very outdated and mediocre skill set. Moving a unit only to give himself 
ArdorATK Up by 1.2x ~ 2.4x, +5CP/turn for 2 turns (Buff), an extremely common offensive buff now, and to allies 
Regeneration+400~800HP/turn for 4 turns (Buff) is not very impressive, especially with no access to defensive status effects. Don't expect much if anything from him until he gets an upgrade by means of skill evolution.
Jamboree Kagutsuchi
Kagutsuchi (Jamboree) is notable for occupying the niche of passive defensive supports among the likes of 
Triton, being able to give 
ProtectionDEF Up by 0.9x ~ 0.45x for 1 turn (Buff) to allies with an After Buff skill timing, and also as a CP battery, giving 
Arousal+10CP/turn for 1 turn (Buff) to allies and 12 CP to himself and allies horizontal to him with an After Buff skill timing. These features alone make him notable, since he can provide an easy layer of defense/CP charging without moving. The rest of his kit helps to facilitate these goals: improved survivability through 
AdamantineDEF Up by 0.9x ~ 0.45x for 4 turns (Buff) which he triggers from his phase start 
WeaknessDEF Down by 1.2x ~ 2.4x for 1 turn (Debuff), more improved survivability by giving 
Guts+1HP when HP is at 0 at the end of the turn for 5 turns. Removed once activated. (Buff) to himself and healing allies after receiving damage, and a passive application of 
Nourishment+150~300HP/turn, ATK Up by 1.1x ~ 1.5x for 3 turns (Buff) to himself and allies for healing. All of these effects make him a great option for adding defense and sustainability to a team lacking some.
With that being said, in actuality Jamboree Kagutsuchi is already quite similar to a preexisting unit, and that is 
Daikoku. Functionally, Jamboree Kagutsuchi's skill ranges are very much like Daikku's, in which Jamboree Kagutsuchi can only boost CP to allies horizontal to him, making an effective Slash range where he is in the middle. FIn fact, Daikoku is in some ways more consistent especially with regards to healing allies, so one can use Daikoku as a lower cost option to replace Jamboree Kagutsuchi. For example, Daikoku gives +24 CP to allies at a 90% proc rate unseeded, but Jamboree Kagutsuchi would need to buff his +12 CP skill with an 80% proc rate twice to match that numerically. For this reason, one might wonder what niche Jamboree Kagutsuchi has at all if a permanent low and high cost replaceable option exists already. This niche is that his skills rely on an After Buff skill timing, which presents a lot more flexibility in options and will be discussed in more detail further. Still, it is good to keep in mind that Jamboree Kagutsuchi's main weaknesses would be his consistency and the differing ranges in skill application.
