Arataki Itto
Itto is a very strong and genuinely fun Geo main DPS, his hits feel meaty and he clears packs of enemies with ease. The twist is that he scales off DEF, so forget ATK and farm DEF%, a Geo goblet and a crit circlet. He wants a mono-Geo team with Gorou to reach full power, and drops off noticeably without him. The Redhorn Stonethresher is his soulmate weapon, but the 4-star Serpent Spine or Whiteblind already take him far. Aim for 130-140% Energy Recharge so his Burst comes up every rotation.

Teams for Arataki Itto
Gorou buffs DEF and Geo damage, Albedo contributes off-field Geo, and Zhongli's shield lets Itto keep swinging uninterrupted.
Three Geo characters trigger Geo Resonance, Diona provides both shield and healing, making this a safe comp for newer players to grind deep content.
Arataki Itto's talents
Fight Club Legend
Performs up to 4 consecutive strikes.
When the 2nd and 4th strikes hit opponents, Itto will gain 1 and 2 stacks of Superlative Superstrength, respectively.
Max 5 stacks. Triggering this effect will refresh the current duration of any existing stacks.
Additionally, Itto's Normal Attack combo does not immediately reset after sprinting or using his Elemental Skill, "Masatsu Zetsugi: Akaushi Burst!"
Charged Attack
When holding to perform a Charged Attack, Itto unleashes a series of Arataki Kesagiri slashes without consuming Stamina. Instead, each Arataki Kesagiri slash consumes 1 stack of Superlative Superstrength. When the final stack is consumed, Itto delivers a powerful final slash.
If no stacks of Superlative Superstrength are available, Itto will perform a single Saichimonji Slash.
Plunging Attack
Plunges from mid-air to strike the ground, damaging opponents along the path and dealing AoE DMG upon impact.
Masatsu Zetsugi: Akaushi Burst!
Ushi will remain on the field and provide support in the following ways:
· Taunts surrounding opponents and draws their attacks.
· Inherits HP based on a percentage of Arataki Itto's Max HP.
· When Ushi takes DMG, Arataki Itto gains 1 stack of Superlative Superstrength. Only 1 stack can be gained in this way every 2s.
· Ushi will flee when its HP reaches 0 or its duration ends. It will grant Arataki Itto 1 stack of Superlative Superstrength when it leaves.
Hold
Adjust throwing angle.
Ushi is considered a Geo construct. Arataki Itto can only deploy 1 Ushi on the field at any one time.
The name of this technique is derived from Onibudou (a light novel series written by Junkichi). However, calling it "Onisatsu Zetsugi" probably constitutes copyright infringement — not to mention how Itto himself is an oni and all...
Royal Descent: Behold, Itto the Evil!
This state has the following special properties:
· Converts Itto's Normal, Charged, and Plunging Attacks to Geo DMG. This cannot be overridden.
· Increases Itto's Normal Attack SPD. Also increases his ATK based on his DEF.
· On hit, the 1st and 3rd strikes of his attack combo will each grant Arataki Itto 1 stack of Superlative Superstrength.
· Decreases Itto's Elemental and Physical RES by 20%.
The Raging Oni King state will be cleared when Itto leaves the field.
This is the pinnacle technique of the ultimate fighting style (according to Itto). It would be pointless for Arataki Itto to reference any other fighting styles to improve his own, for he, and no other, is the strongest, most terrible oni in the land.
Shouta thinks it looks really cool.
Arataki Ichiban
· Each slash increases the ATK SPD of the next slash by 10%. Max ATK SPD increase is 30%.
· Increases his resistance to interruption.
These effects will be cleared once he stops performing consecutive slashes.
Bloodline of the Crimson Oni
Woodchuck Chucked
Combat Rotation
- Open with Elemental Skill to hurl Ushi, dealing Geo DMG, taunting nearby enemies, and granting 1 stack of Superlative Superstrength (Skill CD 10s).
- Land 2-4 Normal Attacks; the 2nd and 4th hits of each combo grant an extra stack, up to a max of 5 stacks.
- Let Ushi stay on the field to draw enemy attacks — each time it takes damage (max once per 2s) it grants another stack.
- Once you have 70 Energy, unleash the Burst 'Royal Descent' to enter the Oni King state, lasting 11 seconds (Burst CD 18s).
- While in Oni King, Normal/Charged/Plunging Attacks are all converted to Geo DMG, with ATK scaling off DEF and increased Normal Attack SPD.
- Prioritize landing the 1st and 3rd hits of your combo during Oni King, since each grants an extra stack of Superlative Superstrength.
- Ushi also grants a stack when it flees (on expiry or defeat) — recast the Skill as soon as it's off cooldown to keep the taunt and stack income going.
- Loop the cycle: Skill (taunt + stacks) → Normal Attacks for more stacks → Burst once Energy is full → deal damage in Oni King; note Oni King lowers Elemental and Physical RES by 20%, so bring shield/healing support.
Arataki Itto constellations
After using Royal Descent: Behold, Itto the Evil!, Arataki Itto gains 2 stacks of Superlative Superstrength. After 1s, Itto will gain 1 stack of Superlative Superstrength every 0.5s for 1.5s.
After using Royal Descent: Behold, Itto the Evil!, each party member whose Element is Geo will decrease that skill's CD by 1.5s and restore 6 Energy to Arataki Itto.
CD can be decreased by up to 4.5s in this manner. Max 18 Energy can be restored in this manner.
Increases the Level of Masatsu Zetsugi: Akaushi Burst! by 3.
Maximum upgrade level is 15.
When the Raging Oni King state caused by Royal Descent: Behold, Itto the Evil! ends, all nearby party members gain 20% DEF and 20% ATK for 10s.
Increases the Level of Royal Descent: Behold, Itto the Evil! by 3.
Maximum upgrade level is 15.
Arataki Itto's Charged Attacks deal +70% CRIT DMG. Additionally, when he uses Arataki Kesagiri, he has a 50% chance to not consume stacks of Superlative Superstrength.

Birthday
Today's an important day. I had to send the gang away, otherwise they'd be accusing me of favoritism. Here, take a look at this. I got you the greatest birthday gift combo ever! One top-grade Onikabuto — I'll have you know it took me three whole days and nights to catch this bad boy — one out-of-print collectible trading card that took me 300 rounds to get my hands on, and finally, a birthday song performance performed personally by yours truly! Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday to you, Happy Biiiirthday dear Traveler, Happy Birthday to youuuu!
Self-Introduction
Hello
I'm the head honcho of the Arataki Gang, and everyone knows my name...s. Names, I have many. Arataki "The One and Oni" Itto, Arataki "The Oni Sumo King" Itto, Arataki "The Pride of Oni" Itto, Arataki "Beetle Gladiator" Itto, Arataki "The Ultimate TCG Champion" Itto, Arataki "He Might Lose but He'll Never Admit Defeatto"... Anyway, these are some of the ones I usually go by, so go ahead, take your pick. I'll respond to whichever one you choose, I promise. Hehe, you're welcome.
About Itto: Getting a Real Job
Oh, so they're saying I can't hold down a real job, huh? Well! Hahaha! Sorry to break it to ya, but I'm a delinquent. That means it's my job to not have a real job, and if anyone's got a problem with that... Who's got a problem with that, huh? You got a problem with that!? You got a problem with— *coughing* Sorry. Got a little worked up there. Where was I? Ah yeah, so work isn't really my thing, but don't worry — I don't rob or steal or anything like that. When I'm really runnin' low on funds, I just take the odd job here and there to make ends meet. You know, like transporting stuff, delivering documents, helping businesses attract customers... Just enough to keep the wolf from the door. Hehe!
About Itto: Oni
The oni have been through a lot to get to where we are today, and look at us now — living peacefully alongside the humans. Unfortunately, there's still plenty of people out there who've got a bone to pick with us. Hmm? Change? Oh yeah, things are gonna change, alright! You can count on that! But I'll tell you what, it won't involve any sucking up to the humans on my part, nuh-uh! I'm gonna let my actions do the talkin'. They'll come to respect me eventually.
More About Itto: I
I know what you're thinking: "I don't see it — how did this guy get to become the boss of the Arataki Gang on the back of beetle fighting and trading card games?" Well, you're right, those are just child's play. Wanna know the hard skills that really got me where I am? Eating ramen standing upside down, sleeping with my eyes open, playing the harmonica with my nose, and swatting houseflies with my hair. Yeah, I know. Betcha see it now, huh?
More About Itto: II
People in Inazuma have this ritual every time there's a holiday, or they move, or get sick, or whatever, where they throw beans around and chant: "Fortune beans are falling down, send the oni out of town. Fortune in, oni out. Fortune in, oni out!" ...Ugh, the chant gets worse every time I hear it, but the streets full of beans, with my allergies? Total disaster. I've gotta fix this, for every oni out there! We're innocent, people! Quit trying to ward us off and drive us out every time there's a minor life event!
More About Itto: III
In a... "attempt"... to end human prejudice toward the oni, I had the gang use a Kamera to take a picture of me showing my softer side and stick it to the Message Board in Inazuma City. Next thing we know, some jerks have graffitied all over it! Tsk! Then, some ashigaru blockheads from the Tenryou Commission accused me of disrupting the peace, next it was the Yashiro Commission, complaining it ruined the atmosphere in the area, and finally, even the Kanjou Commission got involved — they sent some lackeys over demanding advertising tax! Ugh, they have no idea who the bad guys are here!
More About Itto: IV
In the Arataki Gang, we're proud to welcome people who've experienced adversity in their lives. Don't listen to the people who call us freaks, or weirdos. Every member of my gang is like family to me, and they all feel the same way. Whatever happens, the gang will face it together — both the highs and the lows.
More About Itto: V
I gotta respect the Blue Oni for sacrificing themselves so that the Crimson Oni could live on... In principle, though, I'm absolutely against it. No one should have to sacrifice their own kind for the sake of a better tomorrow, period. It's only a better tomorrow if it's a better tomorrow for everyone. We need to work together, not have everyone just focused on themselves, making their own sacrifice, trying to look cool in the process... Eh, I guess there's no changing the past, what's done is done. But from this day forward, no more sacrificing, not on my watch! You go to sacrifice yourself, I'll stand right in your way!
About Us: Cooperation
Hey, so I always see you running around everywhere doing this and that for other people, but you're not in it for the Mora, are you? No, you're just straight-up lookin' out for your fellow man. I know a true homie when I see one, and no one appreciates a homies' homie more than yours truly. Put it here, partner! You and I are gonna make a great team, I just know it!
About Us: Response
You know what, I gotta admit — I respect you, always have. I could really see you as a member of the gang, you know — I mean, you really have what it takes... Whaddya say? I've even come up with a catchy title to tag on after your name, get this: "The Traveler, 'Second to One'"! Get it? 'Cause y'know, I'm numero uno, you're my number two, and together we're the most powerful duo in the whole friggin' world, baby! Hahaha! Ah... But, uh, all jokes aside, I know you're on some important journey or whatever. So, go ahead! Get out there and do whatcha wanna do! Just remember, the Arataki Gang will always answer your call.
Thoughts About Other Characters
Thoma
Some of the boys have been telling me that he was the star of the show at the Vision Hunt Ceremony. I'm like — are you kidding me??? How come he gets his own special ceremony!? Was the hundredth Vision supposed to be, like, stronger than the other ninety-nine, or something? Pff, nah, it can't have been that, 'cause, uh, hello! They would've chosen me if that's what they were going for.
Kamisato Ayato
Haha, I only wish I could have met my bro Ayato sooner. He really taught me something. "You can kindle the warrior spirit in even the weakest of bugs"... Yep, I really took that one to heart. If it weren't for those words of wisdom, I'm pretty sure I would have given up beetle fighting after losing for the 780th time... Heh, I guess sometimes it takes a warrior to understand a warrior. When we're playing trading card games or battling beetles, we're always totally on the same wavelength.
Yoimiya
Hmph, she's always showing off her fancy fireworks and toys to the kids. Well, I'm sick of it! Nobody steals my thunder! I'm the one that's supposed to be adored by the kids! Me! That goes for you too, you're siding with me on this, okay... Huh? Whaddya mean, you're not a kid? Eh, details. If you're shorter than me, you're a kid as far as I'm concerned.
Kaedehara Kazuha
Word on the street is that he blocked the Musou no Hitotachi after you escaped from Tenshukaku. Seriously? 'Cause I mean, that is awesome! Who knows how he pulled it off. Hey, now that I think about it, he's from a fallen clan, and I'm from a fallen clan... That kinda makes us equals, haha! Yeah, so next time someone attacks you, it's my turn to block the blade!
Raiden Shogun
During the Vision Hunt Decree, the Shogun had to send her top tengu in person to get my Vision off me. Heh, means she must have found me to be quite the pain in the neck. But, y'know, she's abolished the Vision Hunt Decree now, so no hard feelings, I guess. As long as she's learned her lesson, of course. 'Cause if she pulls something like that again, this old pain in the neck will be back with a vengeance.
Kujou Sara
You know what, yeah, she beat me during the Vision Hunt Decree. I'm not ashamed to admit it. When you lose, you admit defeat, and when you screw up, you take it on the chin, like a man! And anyway, let's not forget which one of us won't agree to a rematch — her, the tengu warrior! It's just a sumo street fight, I mean, what's she so afraid of? If she keeps snubbing me, I'm gonna have to stop calling her Kujou Tengu and start calling her Kujou Chicken! Heh, we'll see what she thinks of that.
Gorou
Oh yeah, the doggy general in the resistance... Hey, I've gotta hand it to him, he may be on the small side, but he's got quite the fighting spirit. Also, he gives off this vibe that makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside, almost as if he understands my innermost feelings... I mean, I've barely met the guy, so that's kinda weird.
Kuki Shinobu
Nobody questions my leadership in the gang, what I say goes — except when it comes to Shinobu. She's always challenging everything I say. And not only that — all the hard-earned loot I bring back and share with everyone? She goes and returns it! But also, she gets me out of jail, and out of every mess we get ourselves into, so I'll let it slide. Besides, I don't wanna get on her bad side... An angry Shinobu would make my life a nightmare.
Sayu
All I did was give her a little pat on the head this one time when she wasn't looking, and now, she pounces to attack every time she lays eyes on me. Haha, what can I say? Tanuki are adorable! What am I supposed to do — not pat one on the head? ...Oh yeah, and that's the other thing — she beats you up for calling her a tanuki, too! What's up with that? I mean, a tanuki's what she's going for, right? Sheesh, talk about getting your fur all ruffled over nothing...
Hobbies & Personality
Itto's Hobbies
Beetle fighting, trading card games, spinning tops, kendama, hide-and-seek, you name it, I can play it! Whaddya say, pick one and we'll have a little contest? Just make sure you're ready to get thrashed! Hahaha!
Itto's Troubles
Granny Oni isn't an oni at all... In fact, she's the kindest human that has ever lived. She only got her nickname because she took me in. If people have got a problem with me, fine, I don't care what other people think anyway... *sigh* But I wish people wouldn't go after her because of me.
Favorite Food
Lollipops are pretty much the best things ever. The candy tastes awesome, but also, it looks really cool just having a stick hanging out of your mouth. It gives me, like... a real punk kind of vibe. Here, you try it!
Least Favorite Food
Uh, well I am an oni! So there's nothing I hate more than beans. Soybeans, Mung Beans, whatever, I hate 'em all. Just touching one is enough to set off my allergies, let alone eating them. We have to get people to resist this constant urge to throw beans everywhere!
Feelings About Ascension
Feelings About Ascension: Intro
Now that's what I'm talking about, baby! Woo-haha! Better look out, I'm way stronger now!
Feelings About Ascension: Building Up
Ah yeah, this is gonna do wonders for my win ratio!
Feelings About Ascension: Climax
Feel the power, baby! Wanna see me smash a boulder?
Feelings About Ascension: Conclusion
I think "Numero Uno" just went from nickname to reality, boom! Haha! Hey, but just because I made it to the top doesn't mean I'm gonna forget all the things you've done for me, okay? I've still got your back, anytime, anywhere.
Receiving a Gift
Receiving a Gift: I
Hahahahahahahaha! Mm, mm, mm! I haven't eaten somethin' this good in three whole years!
Receiving a Gift: II
Fine! I'll let you treat me to a meal today, but know that the Arataki Gang always pays its debts.
Receiving a Gift: III
Hey, are you sure you ain't trying to poison me!? Ah!

Strengths & Weaknesses
- At Lv90, Arataki Itto already gets +19,2% CRIT Rate baked into the ascension stat line — no artifacts needed for this part.
- Has crowd-control (knockback/pull/freeze/stun…) via Masatsu Zetsugi: Akaushi Burst!.
- The core mechanic (via Masatsu Zetsugi: Akaushi Burst!) scales with HP — HP% is also an easy-to-find substat, and the character usually comes with high survivability too.
- Since it scales with HP (via Masatsu Zetsugi: Akaushi Burst!), it can't share ATK%-geared artifacts with other DPS — needs a separate HP-focused artifact/weapon set.
- 5★ (Claymore) — only available on limited/character-specific banners, not on the standard wish.
Role Rankings
Machine-classified by scanning mechanic keywords in the OFFICIAL skill text (not another site's opinion ranking). Characters whose weapon type is inherently elemental (e.g. catalysts, bows) may not show "Does this well" for On-Field even if they can still be played on-field — this is a limit of text-based detection.
