After attacking with Shikigami Haunting for ages, stopping and using the explosion skill 3 times takes a massive chunk of his HP away (that's 45 hits) and it looks so flashy, and I love the sound effect of using it.
For a Kanna that hits damage cap, I can imagine how much of an asset it would be against bosses.
A lot of Kanna's least talked about skills are really useful actually. On my first attempt at Zakum on my Kanna i forgot Holy Waters and was seal locked for a lot of the fight, at one point near the end I took out a massive chunk of Zakum's HP just using the DoT from the Pulse skill in second job and the magic counters from Haku's foxfire while I was sealed.
I use Youun Shoukan quite heavily actually, especially in maps like the Captains minidungeon. Plop down Kishin Shouka at the bottom platform, pop up Youun Shoukan, DoT cloud 'errwhere. Then just Sou Tengu the middle and top platforms. Having a bajillion ultimate-esque attacks is pretty damn awesome. Though I wish they made Shugyoku no Juin a toggle skill, like Pickpocket.
And I can never get Haku to make three foxfires like the skill says it goes up to; I always get two up and then the duration expires...
