Strategy/Usage

Like the other Ultra Souls, Kintaro has significantly different stats between Normal (spammable) and Evolved Form (high performance), both of which can be used effectively depending on the situation.

Normal Form

Kintaro does a very good job vs Angel enemies, his normal form is a spammable Anti-angel with good slow proc chance and uptime, with a small stack of Kintaros you can perma-slow Angel enemies. His range is high enough to outrange some Angel enemies like Boraphim, Angelic Gory and Winged Pigge.

For generalist purposes, Kintaro can be used alongside Housewife Cat as they share similar stats. 

Evolved Form

Kinrangers RoboForce can independently slow Angels, along with being able to outrange more Angel enemies, like Angelic Sleipnir and Chickful A. Kinrangers RoboForce have above average DPS (with savage blows) for their range, so they can be used for generalist purposes.

True Form

525-3 gains higher health, damage and the curse ability. The stat improvements are nice, but aren't so much of a change that they are a drastic difference for you to get this True Form. The curse ability is an interesting one, as Angels don't have many debuffers, but is very effective against the few Angels with debuffs (Sleipnir, Chickful A, Winged Pigge and Papuu) which allows you to negate their main source of pushing power. However, it does not effect and is not relevant for any other enemy and, because of this, it may not be worth the pain to grind the Elder Catfruit required from Growing Strange.
