Haruichi Izumo [The Clean-Cut Elite] is a B-tier Shot-element Supporter who specializes in weakening enemies and maintaining battlefield control through ATK reduction and buff removal. Rather than increasing raw team damage, Haruichi focuses on defensive utility, making him particularly useful in stages where enemy buffs and high burst damage pose a threat.
His Combat Skill reduces the target’s ATK, directly lowering incoming damage and improving team survivability. While the debuff is straightforward, its value increases significantly in prolonged encounters.
Haruichi’s Ultimate is an AoE attack that also randomly removes one buff from affected enemies. This gives him a niche advantage in stages where bosses or elite Kaiju rely heavily on self-buffs. Although the removal is not fully reliable due to its random nature, it can disrupt key enemy mechanics and reduce pressure on the team.
Additionally, his Passive Skill allows him to randomly remove one debuff from an ally when his Follow-Up Skill activates. While this provides occasional cleansing utility, it is conditional and not consistent enough to replace a dedicated cleanser. Players should treat this as supplementary support rather than a primary debuff-removal solution.
