The long and short of it is he's really niche so for harder difficulties he's great, but he can't clear exp hands/QP doors without grailing/fou'ing him.

If you like him as a character you shouldn't let that stop you, but there's lots of other buster AOE 5-stars that out-damage him. On the opposite end, if you wanted to you can use Merlin/Waver to get his damage up. I've seen screenshots of someone with a lvl 100 NP2 Amakusa do 2 million damage with them.
