Analysis
A Red Jujutsu attacker built around her Nail Count mechanic: she stacks Nails on enemies and then detonates them for a massive burst. The more Nails she has built up, the harder her payoff hits — so her gameplay is all about stacking and then cashing in.
S3 (Hairpin) is her detonator and main damage: it hits every enemy carrying Nails and its damage scales enormously with how many Nails are stacked, reaching a huge multiplier at full stacks before clearing them. This is her burst window.
S2 and her normal attack are her cheap Nail-builders — S2 hits all enemies, stacks Nails, and applies a Jujutsu Damage Received debuff, while her normal attack stacks Nails on a single target and weakens its Jujutsu damage. You spend several turns building Nails before firing S3.
Her Ultimate is a hard-hitting combined-damage strike that always lands a Black Flash and also adds a Nail, helping fuel her loop — and landing a Black Flash triggers a passive that grants a big, long-lasting Jujutsu buff and refunds Cursed Energy.
Her SP form sharpens the whole loop: it makes S3 cheaper and add a Damage Received debuff, gives her Ultimate-charge support, and turns her Black Flash passive into an even bigger damage buff. Judge her ceiling largely on her SP form.
She is a strong burst-focused Red carry, but she needs setup turns and benefits from Cursed Energy support to fund her expensive detonation. Best used as a single-target/AoE nuker that stacks Nails patiently, then deletes a target — especially potent once her SP is unlocked.
Lore
