I was able to summon Hijikata during his first campaign, and until then I've been using him very often. He is hard to use against bosses with multiple bar, as the fandom user said above, however he can be a good DPS against them if you can support him.

Hijikata need to have low HP (50% or less) but be able to survive, and he needs to charge NP. So you need supports who can help him with that. Waver can charge up to 50% NP for him, and give DEF buff. Shielder can give him DEF buff, give him invulnerability and use taunt to keep him safe one turn, Jeanne can save him during one turn, give him stars and give him a little HP regen, along with DEF buff, and... well, I think you can understand the idea. Servants who can keep him alive with 50% or less. Just don't use Servants that give a lot of HP (like Tamamo). Servants with HP Regen (like Jeanne or Merlin) are okay, because he will receive damage from time to time.
