I've just gotten an Class Evolved Samurai which was the last piece of Awakening Material I needed to awaken my Shuka... And I'm glad to be getting her done. I do agree that at 19 min cost she is still pricey (once she gets her -5 cost in a future update she should be a unit I almost always include and drop) but even so she's still a "Block 2 + Strike 2" Unit with 30% Evasion and -3 Unit Cost down... So after dropping her I can drop Waltz for 1 UP to boost her for example. Heck most of the time I may carry her just to drop in the rear before the final waves and use her Team +10% Attack buff.

She will be my 12th Awakened Unit... having trouble deciding who to choose for the 13th.
