The Kairagi is one of the heavier enemies you can find in Teyvat, meaning you cannot use Anemo characters to crowd control them. You can however, use the Freeze reaction to keep them from dishing out powerful attacks.

Move Behind It when it Guards

The Kairagi is an enemy that has the ability to block your attacks in front of you. Go behind the Kairagi and then attack or Freeze it to easily deal DMG.

Defeat the Pair of Kairagi Simultaneously

Genshin - Kairagi Strategy - Defeat Kairagi at the Same Time

When a group of Kairagi show up as a pair, make sure you defeat both Kairagi at the same time, as one Kairagi will get stronger when the other is defeated prematurely.
