Overview

Shuichi is an extremely powerful debuffing unit that massively increases the survivability of your team by debilitating the enemy's ability to deal damage. He can cause Dazzle, dramatically lowering enemy ATK for multiple turns, and his CS causes Possessed, causing enemies to attack each other rather than your team for one turn. Not only does this functionally negate damage to your team for one turn, but your enemies might kill each other for you while Possessed!

Highlights

Class: Disruptive Support

Gameplay Role: Debuffer

Pros

+ Can remove enemy buffs

+ Can mitigate enemy damage with Dazzle and Possessed

+ Greatly increases your team's damage output with Weakness and Possessed

Cons

- Low direct damage output

- Very reliant on skill activation percentages

- His utility is gutted in his ☆3 version due to having Slash range as opposed to Magic range, preventing him from debuffing long-range enemies and attenuating their damage

Gameplay Role

Example gameplay role breakdown.

Stats and Seed Usage

Unit	(Effective) HP		Base ATK		ATK per square		CS ATK per square (SALV1)
Unit	Unseeded	Seeded	Unseeded	Seeded	Unseeded	Seeded	Unseeded	Seeded
	6660	8721	3509	5070	1579	2282	1965	2839
	7265	9275	3926	5478	1099	1534	3298	4602

Skill Seeds increase the likelihood of Shuichi's potent debuffs proccing, which is by far the most important aspect of the character to maximize, so prioritize those first. After that, increasing his HP allows him to stay in the fight and debuff longer, making HP and Level Seeds the next best choice. Shuichi's direct damage is of minimal importance, really, so ATK Seeds are probably better spent on other characters instead.

Team Synergy

Characters with Insight

Characters who can apply Insight to Shuichi to increase the proc rate of his skills greatly increase his efficiency and reliability. The Starshine skill of Pollux, Shinya, or Taurus Mask can be perfect for this.

Characters with CP increase

Possibly Shuichi's most powerful tool is his CS, since Possessed is such a monstrously powerful debuff. Characters that can further increase Shuichi's rate of CP gain, such as Claude or Hanuman using Head of Festivities, are perfect companions for this reason.

Characters who can cure ailments

Because so much of Shuichi's power is tied to his skills, getting tagged with Bind makes him deadweight on a team. Having somebody like Taurus Mask or Makara who can remove Bind may be a good idea when running Shuichi in your team.

Duo

Duo's Spinner of Fate (3-Star) or Fount of Wisdom (5-Star) skills combine Insight and CP Increase into a single skill that can activate every time Duo attacks. This makes Duo the perfect unit to support and enable Shuichi's talents... much to Shuichi's delight and Duo's displeasure.

-==Star Level Differences==
+Example team function description.
-Shuichi's 4-Star version is, in almost all situations, going to be the superior option to his 3-Star version, simply due to weapon type. 4-Star Shuichi uses magic, while 3-Star uses Slash -- Slash will do more direct damage, true, but Shuichi's worth is in his debuffs, and 4-Star Shuichi can apply them to more enemies at much longer range.
