Review
Strong free main DPS, including full copies being obtainable without spending
High damage ceiling when Grain is managed properly
Can stay active while swapping characters during her multi-cast Redirect Skill sequence
Awakening and Resonance improve both Grain generation and damage conversion.
Deals a lot of damage.
Shop management buffs.
Mechanically complex, especially around Grain timing and Grain Market optimization.
A bit of a selfish DPS.
Chiz is a Cosmo Attribute character with a damage role who is completely free, including her copies. This review will reflect that. She is one of the more complicated characters in the game, but she is a strong damage dealer.
To keep things as clear as possible, I will try not to overwhelm you with various term names and will focus on their effects, though I will still need to mention multiple terms.
She relies on a mechanic called Grain. Grain is generated through basic attacks, be it the regular or held variation, with the held version being capable of devouring small mobs. You also gain Fons alongside that (yes, the currency). Grain is consumed when you use your held Redirect Skill: Pink Paws Priority Principle, with the damage dealt being based on the amount of Grain owned.
When you use Chiz's Ultimate: Zero-Sum Game to enter what is called the Grain Market, you will see a visual indicator at the bottom middle of the screen. It looks like a stock market chart, and that is the Grain Price. It will fluctuate, meaning you want to make sure you hit the highest value on the chart so that you can gain the most Grain for powerful skill attacks when your Grain is at its peak.
Her Redirect Skill can also be charged up to 3 stacks, and if you press it consecutively, you will sequentially cast Redirect Skill: No Grain, Redirect Skill: Half Grain, and Redirect Skill: Full Grain, up to 3 consecutive casts. You can switch characters while this is happening, and Chiz will still remain on the field until the attack finishes. This allows for dual-DPS setups, although Chiz will often demand a lot of field time herself, since she's a self-contained DPS.
Let's talk about her awakenings also since they're all free.
Chiz’s Awakening and Resonance improve her Grain system in multiple ways. Some increase max Grain or start her with it already built, while others boost how fast she generates it during combat. A few improve overall efficiency, making her build Grain more smoothly. On the damage side, they strengthen how Grain converts into Cosmos damage, and her Resonance also adds extra Grain gain and a Cosmos resistance debuff on enemies, boosting both her damage and team value.
Chiz is a main DPS whose passives support that role. Hanahaki provides Charge to the active character, which is usually herself, while Hoarding increases her Charge efficiency so she can stockpile it while on the field. She is a selfish DPS built around managing her own Grain economy. She works best with teammates who can provide buffs without depending on Charge.
Please note that the Crit. Rate stat doesn't benefit her. Her ult can already guarantee a Crit with a built-in mechanic, and her Skill can't crit, thus making that stat basically useless for her. However, due to the guaranteed crit on Ult, Crit DMG remains relevant. Another thing to take into consideration, since her signature weapon is free, remember to keep at least one million Fons in your account at all times to make the best use of its passive.

Awakenings & Calcs
In NTE, you can freely choose Awakening Effects, so you are not forced to unlock them in a specific order, and you can unselect them at any time.
Fireworks in Silence (A2) > To Riccitali, Bandage, Fons (A4) > Sun, Sun — speak to me! (A1) ≈ Blank Diary Pages (A5) > If There Were No Rainy Days (A3) ≈ Thirty-Three Days (A6)
As Chiz is completely free including her copies, you'll likely be getting all her Awakenings anyway.
Fireworks in Silence (A2) generates Grain passively while in Surplus state, meaning your damage resource keeps building even without active input, which directly feeds into how hard her Redirect Skill hits. To Riccitali, Bandage, Fons (A4) makes Grain acquisition faster. Sun, Sun — speak to me! (A1) lets her hold more Grain at once, while Blank Diary Pages (A5) starts every combat with a full storage, skipping the buildup phase entirely. The rest are good too, with If There Were No Rainy Days (A3) boosting Grain spike chance. Thirty-Three Days (A6) gives additional Cosmos Damage.
We're still working on Chiz's calculations, so the priority might change - we will update the section as soon as possible.
