S-Rank Cosmos Solid Arc Umbrella Eibon Antique Shop Tier S+

Hotori is the enigmatic boss of the Eibon Antique Shop and an S-Rank Cosmos-type Sub-DPS who wields a katana concealed within an elegant umbrella. Her core mechanic revolves around Time Stop — freezing enemies and timers while she unleashes devastating burst damage. She records teammates' Support skills during Time Stop, replaying them for massive damage. Featured as the limited banner character in v1.0 Phase 2 (May 13 – June 3, 2026).

Build Notes

Prioritize CRIT Rate, CRIT DMG, and Cosmos DMG Bonus. Signature Arc "Marching Beyond Time" is her best weapon, providing ATK boost and CRIT DMG on Ultimate. Best Cartridge set is Lost Radiance (4pc: Cosmos DMG +10%, Ultimate ignores 25% DEF). Best teams pair her with Nanally (Blossom reaction: Cosmos + Anima) and Hathor/Jiuyuan for support. Awakening priority: A6 (ignore 30% DEF during Time Stop) > A2 (+20% personal DMG) > A5 (+15% team DMG).
