Arashiyama is a skilled agent and a good leader, enough to be the captain of an A-Rank Squad whose ranking is maintained despite the pressures of PR work.[1] He was extolled as an "outstanding" captain for his ability to choose coordination-based strategies that best fit the situation.[2] He gave proof of moderate analytical abilities while serving as a commentator, describing various tactics used in the match for the audience.[3][4][5]
As an All-Rounder, he can fight efficiently at both close and middle range and is extremely flexible in general,[6] with his Trigger set also granting him remarkable supportive and defensive capabilities as well. Although he seems to currently specialize in coordinating with Tokieda,[2] his prowess as a solo agent is demonstrated by his former role as the ace of his team, which he later relinquished to Kitora in order to control the battlefield and his squad more easily.[7]
Although Arashiyama does not use any Gunner Triggers as a Shooter, Karasuma deemed him a more qualified coach than himself to teach Osamu advanced shooting tactics[8] that would allow him to score by himself, which he in fact detailed and demonstrated to Osamu,[9] proving himself to possess skills that exceed the requirements of his Trigger set.
Aside from his effectiveness in combat, Arashiyama is a very charismatic individual who caught Netsuki's eye in his early days at Border for his natural ability to communicate and win others over.[10] Together with his looks, this ultimately resulted in his squad becoming the PR squad.[11]
Triggers
| Jun Arashiyama's Triggers |
|---|
| Current |
|---|
Type  Normal
|
Asteroid | |
|---|---|---|
Gunner |
Arashiyama fires Asteroid bullets through his assault rifle, which has a high rate of fire.[12] He often coordinates with his teammates to increase their overall firepower or attack the opponent from multiple directions, a tactic that is rendered even more effective by the use of Teleporter.[13] He and Tokieda were able to destroy the durable armor of an injured Rabbit in a matter of seconds.[14] Arashiyama first uses Asteroid in Chapter 29 (Episode 15 in the Anime). | |
| Type Normal
|
Scorpion | |
|---|---|---|
Attacker |
A light, malleable blade with high offensive capabilities that Arashiyama uses in melee combat. He frequently employs it in feints with Shield and his Gunner Trigger, using the latter to trick the opponent into thinking he has a Trigger active both in the main and the sub, before striking with Scorpion.[15] | |
| Type Normal
|
Meteor | |
|---|---|---|
Gunner |
Arashiyama fires the Meteor through the lower barrel of his assault rifle.[16] It shoots a single projectile which produces a powerful explosion.[16] He appears to be quite skilled with this Trigger, holding off two A-Rank agents despite his impaired mobility.[17] Arashiyama first uses Meteor in Chapter 26 (Episode 14 in the Anime). | |
| Type Normal
|
Teleporter | |
|---|---|---|
Optional |
A Trigger that warps the user a few meters in the direction they are facing.[18] Defensively, Arashiyama uses it to dodge[19] and to safely play the role of decoy.[13] However, he can also use it aggressively: After luring an enemy into thinking they have moved behind him, Arashiyama can activate Teleporter to warp behind their back and attack.[20] This tactic, which aims to turn the tables all at once,[2] is especially powerful when Arashiyama and Tokieda combine their firepower after the former teleports.[18] Arashiyama first uses Teleporter in Chapter 29 (Episode 15 in the Anime). | |
| Type Normal
|
Shield | |
|---|---|---|
Defense |
Border's Main Defense Trigger, which erects a mobile barrier in a location chosen by the user. Arashiyama often gives his Shield a peculiar rectangular shape.[21] | |

Daisuke Ashihara: Q: Kogetsu can be turned OFF without being put back in its sheath, but is it possible, for instance, to use a feint like holding a gun in one hand with it OFF while attacking with a Scorpion from the elbow?
A: It is possible. "Pretending with Shield + Gun but actually Scorpion" is one of the feints that All-Rounders equipped with Scorpion (like Arashiyama Squad) use a lot.
