Strategy/Usage

Like the other Ultra Souls, Princess Kaguya 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

Use Kaguya to stall powerful Metal and Angel enemies. She is beyond effective against stages like Utopia is Over There.

Her strength comes from being extremely cost efficient and hitting very often, to the point that she can't even be rushed down by a Doge Dark, who would instead be juggled back continuously. All this impressive offensive potential comes at the hefty price of a mediocre range for Ultra Souls standard as well as health so low that it's basically a one-hit kill against most enemies with adequate magnification for her level.

Evolved Form

The Death Moon's chance to cause slowness is generally not enough to be of much use in most situations, so, as long as you are dealing with enemies that can be outranged by Princess Kaguya, you should use the basic form. As a high performance unit, who isn't as replaceable, the Death Moon should be protected by many meatshields. As a frail backliner with long attack windup, she is best suited for non-aggressive approaches with many meatshields or tanks, so it may stay safe in the background and land hits often.

True Form

Due to its good range, The Chaos Moon is very powerful against Master A. and THE SLOTH. Furthermore, her improved ability makes her a much more consistent crowd controller, now able to, sometimes, outperform her normal form against even short ranged targets.

Appearance

• Normal Form: A cat with long shaded hair and a kimono that happens to be too big, as it can be seen being dragged. Holds a bamboo stick to attack.
• Evolved Form: Kaguya is seen floating in a seat above a large hovering moon-like vehicle consisting of shifting, glowing machinery, along with two bunnies floating alongside on either side of the moon. Kaguya and the bunnies' floating seats attach to the vehicle when the moon's attack begins to charge. Kaguya's hair is seen flowing when the machine attacks.
• True Form: Same as evolved form, but in colour and more detailed. The 3 seats are now rocket-propelled and have 2 more propellers on the sides of each. Kaguya also wears a crown and the bunnies have hats that vaguely resemble that of Onmyoji Cat.

Trivia

• This character is loosely based on the traditional Japanese legend The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter, also known as The Tale of Princess Kaguya. She originated from a bamboo shoot and was found by a bamboo cutter that was taking down the plant.
  • In some iterations of the legend, Princess Kaguya was actually sent from the moon and ultimately returns; so there is actually a meaning behind her evolution.
• Kaguya's Evolved and True Forms' "vehicles" closely resemble the Death Star from Star Wars.
• There's a grammar mistake in The Chaos Moon's description. It is supposed to say "That can happen", but, instead, it says "That can happens".
• True Form's evolve description says it increases all traits but speed isn’t increased nor is attack speed.
• The Evolved and True Forms keep the reference to Kaguya's folktale through the attack, which causes Bamboo to sprout.
• Kaguya is the only Ultra Soul to have any variants, with 2.
