Why it scores here
Bujingi Hare is a Level 4 LIGHT Beast body whose only effect works from the Graveyard: it banishes itself to make one Bujin monster unable to be destroyed by battle or card effects for one turn, once per turn. It converts a GY card into a single protection event, with no card advantage, search, or opponent interaction, so the score stays in the middle band. Its 61-deck presence and 1.18 average copies show it is a dependable Bujin staple, and that confirms accessibility rather than strength. Its ATK of 1700 earns nothing by itself.
Axis scores
| Axis | Score | Evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Accessibility | 60 | Played in 61 of 61 sampled decks, mainly Bujin archetypes, and easy to Normal Summon as a Level 4 body; the GY effect is only live after it reaches the Graveyard, and no combo or search route is recorded (observed/inferred). |
| Combo & Conversion | 35 | Text-only: the effect protects one Bujin monster for a turn but does not build a board, and there are zero recorded combo boards (inferred). |
| Resource Economy | 30 | The effect is a self-banish from the GY with no draw, search, or recovery, so it is roughly a 1-for-1 protection with no card advantage (verified from text). |
| Effect & Interaction | 20 | Protection only: it does not negate, destroy, or stop opponent actions, so it gives no opponent interaction (verified from text). |
| Material Utility | 50 | A Level 4 LIGHT Beast body that can serve as material for Level 4 summons, and its material value is unaffected by negation because the body remains (inferred from stats and text). |
| Resilience & Flexibility | 55 | Usable in either player's turn from the GY, which is flexible, but it is once per turn and restricted to Bujin targets, so it is not multi-turn (verified from text, observed in deck role). |
| Deck-Building Efficiency | 70 | Runs 1 copy in most decks (50 of 61) with no garnet or lock, and a second copy is clean, so the slot cost is low (observed from deck data). |
Calculation
Weight profile: Utility / no clear role (default), no blend. Intrinsic ≈ 49, Deck ≈ 50, Meta = provisional. Modifiers: none. Final formula: 0.40*Intrinsic + 0.60*Deck
Strengths
- Stable Bujin staple: in 61 sampled decks across 15 archetypes, mostly Bujin lists
- Clean 1-copy deckbuilding cost with no garnet or lock
- Protection works on either player's turn from the Graveyard
Weaknesses
- Protects one Bujin monster per turn, so it gives no board or advantage
- Graveyard-only activation: it does nothing until the card is already sent to the GY
- No opponent interaction: it does not negate, destroy, or stop actions
Counters / choke points
- Effects that remove or negate a Bujin monster before the protection is needed
- Banishing or exiling Bujingi Hare from the Graveyard to stop the effect
Best use
Utility protection for a Bujin monster in response to removal or battle. Decks: Bujin (Beast-Warrior engine lists), Bujin-based decks with Bujintei Susanowo or Bujingi Turtle. Suggested copies: 1.
Evidence & gaps
- Verified: GY-banish, once-per-turn, either-turn protection for one Bujin monster (card text); Level 4 LIGHT Beast body with 1700 ATK / 500 DEF (card stats); Played in 61 sampled decks, 1.18 average copies (deck data)
- Observed: Bujin partner pairing: Bujintei Susanowo 96.7%, Bujingi Turtle 95.1%, Fire Formation - Tenki 95.1% (deck data); Distributed across 15 archetypes, mainly Bujins/Bujin (deck data)
- Inferred: Accessible as a Level 4 body; GY activation is reachable only after the card reaches the Graveyard; Material value persists when the effect is negated, because the body remains
- Data gaps: no combos supplied: combo conversion is text-only inference no guides supplied no banlist token: assumed 3 copies (unlimited) no usage statistics (StatisticsCard): archetype inclusion % inferred from deck sample only
