Chi-You is a medium sized bird-like Aragami, first introduced in God Eater.
God Eater Burst
A human-form Aragami with rigid wings. Good at melee attacking with its wings, as well as focusing its energy in its fists, and letting it loose. First appeared in central Eurasia.
It's difficult to run a sword through Chi-You's wings. First destroy its lower body and wings with crush type gunfire before striking with the sword. When enraged, it'll glide even faster.
God Eater Resurrection & God Eater2 Rage Burst
A humanoid Aragami with a set of iron-like wings. Although it appears to be a simple melee fighter that uses its wings in close-quarters combat, it can also gather explosive energy in its palms and fling it at enemies. Native to central Eurasia. Its wings are resilient to melee, so it is best to first break the armor on its legs or wings with crushing bullets, then close in for the kill. When angry, its gliding speed increases, so bear caution.
ATK Element : Blaze
Weaknesses : Blaze, Freeze

Trivia
Its name comes from the god of rain, Chi You (蚩尤), from Chinese mythology.
There are evidence that Chi-You can fly across large amount of lands in a cutscene of God Eater 2 (Game) and in God Eater -the 2nd break- (manga).
Chi-You got a new attack in God Eater Resurrection.
As part of the God Eater collaborative content in Tales of Zestiria, the player can fight a special gauntlet battle against waves of Aragami, featuring Chi-Yous as well as Ogretails and Vajras. However, in this content, it is misnamed as "Chihyu Dragon" for unknown reasons.
Useful Tips:
Weak Points: You can inflict Down on a Chi-You by continuously attacking the following parts:
They usually stagger when their head and fists are hit by its weakness.
Just like other large Aragami, Chi-You's will run away when they are low on health.
There is a chance to devour this Aragami when it performs its shockwave attack, bomb ball attack or 360 degrees spinning attack.
You can easily evade its gliding attack by side stepping to the left or right (under its wings) or jumping.
Chi-You's have above average line of sight but below average hearing. You can easily sneak up behind without it ever noticing you. It also doesn't notice immediately that there is a battle nearby unless it actually sees it.
Chi-You gains the ability to use its bomb multiball and bomb ball combo for missions having the difficulty level of 4 and above.
Arm Wings using any type of blade.
Lower Body using any type of blade, crush type bullets (bomb/radial) or Impulse Edge.
