— Official Description

„

Takara Tomy's Shining Amaterios (or Burning Amaterios) is an Attack Type Layer that features 2 sets of 5 alternating blades. Like its predecessor Shadow Amaterios, the center of the Layer features the Layer's namesake: Amaterasu, the goddess of the sun in Japanese mythology. As part of the Cho-Z Layer System, Shining Amaterios features metal in its design: 5 of its blades are lined with metal and have plastic components that can extend outwards to expand the Layer's attack range. The other set of 5 blades are static, featuring 2 plastic protrusions each. Compared to Shadow Amaterios, Shining Amaterios has smoother extendable plastic blades and is half a gram lighter. In theory, this creates a versatile Attack Type Layer, that has both continuous strikes and powerful strikes from the 5 metal-lined blades.

In reality, the shape of Shining Amaterios is poorly suited for Attack combinations, with the gaps between blades being too small. In addition, the extension gimmick rarely activates. Consequently, Shining Amaterios is best suited for Stamina combinations, as its shape works well in Same-Spin and Opposite-Spin Stamina matchups.

Like many other Cho-Z Layers, Shining Amaterios can increase weight and reduce Burst risk with the use of a Level Chip that fits underneath the Layer.
