Should You Pull?
Maybe. The Tiny Ghost Mistress of Universe R2 is back again. This is the first time Yuyuko comes with a step-up banner of the descending type. Both banners also feature one of, if not the best Yin ATK UP Story Card, Overwhelming Firepower on a rate up. This makes the step up a pretty good deal if you want the Tiny Ghost and the Story Card. When it comes to Yuyuko, she is still special in terms of having an entirely Water element Last Word. And she still deals the same damage she used to. But her other characteristics are caught up to, or done better, by other units.
When pulling, also keep in mind the currently running banners: Relic banner for L80 The Heat Of My Fingertips Remilia Scarlet, UFES banner for The Immovable Demon Gate Hong Meiling, FES banner for Patchouli and 3 other A6 universe characters, FES banner for A10 Suwako, Kanako and Sanae (also from A10), FES Banner for A11 Koishi Komeiji. and the God Crystal only 72 Hour Banners. So choose wisely what you want to spend on.
As per usual for Ultra Festival Friends, they need 250 exchange points to spark and you can only Limit Break them with Divine Paper Dolls. This includes Tiny Ghost Mistress Yuyuko Saigyouji, so keep that in mind when rolling.

Yuyuko Saigyouji (Tiny Ghost Mistress)
In the myriad of realities, there is one where the Saigyou Ayakashi, a truly terrifying tree which feasts on the souls of the living, runs rampant, on the verge of fully blooming. Yuyuko Saigyouji, the Tiny Ghost Mistress, hails from this reality. Unaware of how or why she died, all she knows is her duty - to ensure the tree’s appetite is sated, and that it does not fully blossom and end the world. Outside of this, she’s a very talented chef who takes pride in her cooking abilities, making sure that the competitors from other worlds are given a nice meal - one that very may well be their last. Whilst she may be small, she’s certainly still more than capable of defending the Hakugyoku Arena.
For farming purposes, Yuyuko has some pretty huge frontloaded All targeting damage with her Last Word, Saigyo Making a Human Figure at Mt. Koya, in spite of her tiny size. However, where she truly shines is when fighting Youkai, Fairies, Undead, Soul-like presences, Swordswomans, Magicians, or Martial Artists (...in other words, most of the cast with a few exceptions). At that point, her Killers will deal very high damage and invite her foes to a swift slumber, as long as you don't graze needlessly.
Solo Stage Farms: 3-3-3, 3-11-1
For harder fights, Yuyuko’s damage is still huge, but it doesn’t really change all that much - you can still squeeze a fair chunk of extra damage out of her by setting up, of course, but she doesn’t really need set up time for most fights to do most of her damage. As a result, you can have her wait to swoop in for when the opponent is in a Full Break status to invite them to death, or even have her help Break them early. She does have a good amount of Water Break potential - between a 0P Water Break on her Focus Shot, 1/2/3 Solo targeting Breaks for 0/1/2 Spirit Power on Resurrection Butterfly, and 0/0/1/3 All targeting Breaks for 0/1/2/3 Spirit Power on The Purple Higan Shines Late, she's got a respectable amount of breaks - including a silly 6 All targeting Water Breaks for 3 Spirit Power on her Last Word, should you chose to use it for that. Lastly, she also has some decent teamwide support for Slice units by providing her teammates with 2 Levels of Agility UP for 1 turn via Fe ast.
With that said, there is a cost to her power. She’s very reliant upon keeping her Barriers around to have anomalies on them to maximize her output, so you’ll have to sacrifice a lot of damage if you want to keep her out for more than 1 or 2 turns for Breaking. On that note, if you do take a turn to set Yuyuko up, make sure to max out her Freeze Barriers - it's harder to get Agility UP than it is Yin ATK UP. However, depending on how many Killers she can land, it may be more useful to opt for maximizing her Poison Barriers instead.
This tiny ghost mistress has just one job, and that’s to do big damage. She has somewhat narrow Breaks and only some team support, but she’ll hit hard enough it’ll send you straight to the netherworld, for some of her famous food.
