Is Aru (New Year) good?
A Piercing mob-clearer whose 6-cost EX hits one enemy and then bounces to up to 11 more, each taking the same damage. Every six enemies the team defeats gives her a Misdeed stack that lowers her own DEF, and her EX spends them all for up to 4.2 cost back, which offsets the price; 
Seia and 
Fuuka (New Year) cover the rest.
She's great for base defense and Chesed, and weak when only a few enemies are on the field.
Pairs well with: Seia; Fuuka (New Year).
