If you’re looking to boost your Yanagi, Vivian, or Jane, Yuzuha might be exactly what your team needs. Let’s dive into the latest leaked details of her kit and see what she brings to the fight.

Yuzuha: Anomaly Support Overview

Yuzuha is an S-rank Physical Support Agent designed to specifically amplify Anomaly teams. Her kit provides significant buffs, including:

Up to 1200 ATK increase for the team
15% All DMG increase for the team
25% Anomaly DMG & Disorder DMG increase for enemies
32 Energy Regen for the team via her Ultimate
Her signature W-Engine can provide +60 Anomaly Proficiency for the whole team.

With Yuzuha joining the roster, Anomaly DPS units like Yanagi, Vivian, and Jane are set to receive substantial boosts. This also means agents like Astra Yao, who often filled a hybrid Anomaly role, could potentially be freed up for other team compositions.

Yuzuha’s core mechanics revolve around her Basic and Special Attacks. Notably, her standard Basic Attacks do not contribute to Anomaly Calculation, ensuring that your on-field Anomaly DPS is the primary source of that damage. The “Assimilated” effect from her Special Attack further enhances her flexibility as a universal Anomaly Support.

Detailed Kit Breakdown

Basic Attack

Yuzuha’s basic attacks offer a versatile set of maneuvers:

Tap: Performs up to five consecutive forward strikes, dealing Physical DMG.
Hold (Open Umbrella): Enters a defensive stance for up to 1.5 seconds. Successfully parrying enemy attacks recovers 1 [Charge Point]. During this stance, her tanuki companion assists with Physical DMG attacks.
Candy Shot: After continuous umbrella spinning, she fires a powerful Physical projectile. With [Charge Points], she can consume one to launch [Basic Attack: Candy Shot] around the enemy when other controlled characters hit them. This is an [Aftershocks] attack and can be triggered once every 4 seconds.
Candy Splash: Enemies in the [Candy Fright] state receive [Candy Splash] attacks once per second. These attacks have a 50% increased Anomaly Buildup Rate but do not contribute to Anomaly DMG calculations.
Super Candy Splash: Enemies in [Candy Fright] hit by [Basic Attack: Candy Shot] or [Assist Follow-Up: Candy Shot] receive one [Super Candy Splash] attack. Similar to Candy Splash, these also have a 50% increased Anomaly Buildup Rate but do not contribute to Anomaly DMG calculations.

Special Attack

Yuzuha’s Special Attacks are key to applying her core debuffs:

Tap: Fires a projectile forward, dealing Physical DMG.
EX Special Attack (Energy Sufficient): Throws a bomb dealing Physical DMG. A critical hit inflicts [Candy Fright] status on the enemy for 30 seconds (duration refreshes). Activates 2 [Charge Points] and triggers [Quick Assist] if it hits an enemy.
EX Special Attack: Instant Cast: Activated after a [Dodge Counter], [Quick Assist] attack, or [Perfect Dodge]. Quickly throws a bomb dealing Physical DMG. Critical hits inflict [Candy Fright] for 30 seconds (duration refreshes). Activates 2 [Charge Points] and triggers [Quick Assist] if it hits an enemy.

Candy Fright: Enemies in this state, when first hit by an attack from a controlled character with the same attribute, become [Assimilated]. This causes [Candy Splash] and [Super Candy Splash] attacks to convert to that character’s attribute, making Yuzuha’s secondary attacks align with your main DPS! Retriggering [Candy Fright] removes the original [Assimilated] status, allowing for re-assimilation.

Dodge

Dodge: A quick dash dodge that grants invincibility during execution.
Dash Attack: A quick forward strike dealing Physical DMG during a dodge.
Dodge Counter: A quick forward strike dealing Physical DMG after a [Perfect Dodge].

Assist

Yuzuha offers several assist abilities to support the active agent:

Quick Assist: Unleashes a forward strike dealing Physical DMG when the active character is launched into the air. Grants invincibility.
Parry Assist: Parries an incoming attack for the on-field character, greatly increasing Daze and restoring 1 [Charge Point]. Grants invincibility.
Assist Follow-Up: Unleashes a forward strike dealing Physical Damage after triggering Parry Assist. Grants invincibility.
Assist Follow-Up: Candy Shot: After triggering Extreme Assist or successfully parrying with Basic Attack: Umbrella Open, a timely tap spins the umbrella for continuous damage, then fires a powerful cannon shot. Grants invincibility.

Chain Attack & Ultimate

These are Yuzuha’s high-impact abilities:

Chain Attack: When triggered, launches a powerful Physical DMG strike in a small area. Recovers 3 [Charge Points] and grants invincibility.
Ultimate: When Decibels reach MAX, launches a powerful Physical DMG strike in a large area around Yuzuha. A critical hit inflicts [Candy Fright] for 30 seconds (duration refreshes). Activates 32 Energy for other team members, recovers 2 [Charge Points], and triggers [Quick Assist] if it hits. Grants invincibility.

Core Skill & Additional Ability

Core Passive: Upon entering the battlefield, Yuzuha immediately gains 3 [Charge Points]. When inflicting [Candy Fright] on enemies, she provides the entire team with an Attack boost equivalent to 37% of her base Attack (max 1200 points) and increases team DMG by 15% for 30 seconds (duration refreshes).
Additional Ability: When there are Anomaly characters or characters from the same faction in the team, if Yuzuha’s Anomaly Mastery exceeds 100 points, each point above 100 increases Attribute Anomaly DMG and Disorder DMG taken by enemies in [Candy Fright] status by 0.25% (max 25%).

Mindscape Cinema (Constellations)

Yuzuha’s Mindscape Cinema levels significantly enhance her supportive capabilities:

M1: Her EX Special Attacks and Ultimate can forcibly trigger [Chain Attack] on non-Dazed enemies, though with reduced DMG, Anomaly Buildup Rate, and interrupt level. Other characters entering the field via this [Chain Attack] recover 1 [Charge Point] for Yuzuha. [Basic Attack: Candy Shot] cooldown reduced by 25%.
M2: Enemies in [Candy Fright] status have all Attribute DMG Resistance reduced by 12%. The Anomaly DMG and Disorder DMG bonus from her [Additional Ability] is increased to 125% of its original value.
M3: Boosts levels of Basic Attack, Dodge, Assist, Special Attack, and Chain Attack by 2.
M4: [Chain Attack] triggered by EX Special Attacks and Ultimate has increased interrupt level and deals 30% more DMG. Other characters entering the field via this [Chain Attack] recover 4 energy for Yuzuha (can trigger once every 10 seconds).
M5: Boosts levels of Basic Attack, Dodge, Assist, Special Attack, and Chain Attack by 2.
M6: Gains an additional 1 [Charge Point] upon activating [Perfect Assist] or successfully defending with [Basic Attack: Open Umbrella]. [Assist Follow-Up: Candy Shot] can be charged for up to 16 seconds. For every 0.4 seconds charged, Yuzuha consumes 1 [Charge Point] to fire an additional projectile, each dealing 300% of her Attack as DMG. Projectiles hitting [Candy Fright] enemies trigger a [Super Candy Splash] and increase the team’s Disorder DMG Multiplier by an additional 105% for 30 seconds (stacks up to 3 times). If Yuzuha takes damage during charging, she automatically dodges and unleashes a max charge attack.

Signature W-Engine

Yuzuha’s signature W-Engine has the following effects:

When the wearer’s EX Special Attack deals Physical Damage, Anomaly Mastery increases by 55 for 30 seconds (duration refreshes).
When the wearer’s Follow-up Attacks hit an enemy, all allies’ Anomaly Proficiency increases by 96 for 30 seconds (duration refreshes).

Conclusion

Based on these leaks, Ukinami Yuzuha appears to be an incredibly strong and versatile Anomaly support. Her ability to provide significant ATK, DMG, and Anomaly/Disorder DMG buffs, coupled with energy regeneration and flexible application of the “Candy Fright” debuff, makes her a prime candidate for any team built around Anomaly damage dealers. Her “Assimilated” mechanic is particularly innovative, allowing her secondary damage to adapt to your main DPS’s element.

While all leaks are subject to change, Yuzuha looks to be a highly anticipated character for Zenless Zone Zero players focused on maximizing their Anomaly team’s potential. Start saving those Polychromes!
