The Deputy Chief of Section 6, Tsukishiro Yanagi, joins the roster as an S-rank Electric Anomaly Agent. Her gameplay focuses on quick Shock application and stance-switching.

Her unique skill, Polarity Disorder, deals heavy damage to enemies with Anomaly status. If you’re after a character who can control the field and keep up steady damage, Yanagi could be a solid choice.
