Hijikata Toshizo of the Shinsengumi receives an NP Upgrade in this Interlude batch. It comes with the standard ST Buster NP damage increase of +200% per level. Additionally, it will also increase the bonus damage dealt with lower HP by +200% per overcharge level, bringing the maximum at 100% overcharge up to 800%. At this time, Hijikata has yet to receive the skill upgrade that grants him Guts (1 HP revival), which makes him much more capable of fully utilizing his low-HP effects without external help, although the overall damage boost is still very nice. His Guts upgrade is estimated to arrive around October 2022.

The Avenger of Shinjuku also receives an NP Upgrade during this batch of Interludes. In addition to the standard +400% damage increase for single target Quick NPs, he will also grant himself a modest 3-turn Critical Strength buff by 20%, helping him better capitalize on the Critical Stars generated after an NP turn. Combined with his first star gather skill, he can better ensure damaging crits after his NP; if he can manage to NP again (most likely with support), the Critical Damage will stack as well, making this upgrade a very useful buff to Avenger of Shinjuku's overall damage performance.
