If Emp's not found too many problems I haven't, it's good for being inserted straight into the madness. I may ask for a few more nerfs later.
Remember when I'd just snark in the OOC and people would just shoo me away instead of being expected to provide reasonable advice? I almost miss those days :P

Okay so, going to just ignore her Doll-related Perks and Actions because there's going to be the summoning revamp soon and in the meantime summoning seems to be just "everything goes".

Analytic needs clarification as Elf has said. As always I'm a bit concerned about it not scaling at all, seeing as those may become obsolete (which you don't want seeing as you only get a new Perk Slot every 5 levels). One option is to change to a percentage-based system with each stack decaying each turn the related Action isn't used to target Haruka. This has the added advantage of working on something like Status Effects (which are often inflicted without rolls) by dropping their affliction rate.

The Precedents relevant to Counter are Sora's Quick Counter (Active at Level 1, 50% of all incoming damage is reflected back to the attacker instead), Garnt's Parry (Active at Level 1, negate target's attack and inflict 1 Turn Stun), 6AR's Counter (Passive at Level 3, roll DEX against incoming melee, if DEX is higher negate the attack and retaliate with Basic Attack), and Aesford's Interception (Active at Level 2, chooses a party member, the next ranged or magical attack targeting them this turn is redirected at the attacker, 1 Turn Cooldown). The base Action has no mention of damage reduction, so that's fine, though possibly underpowered seeing as it's just as delayed Basic Attack in that case. The Level 2 upgrade also looks fine seeing as it's effectively Interception except limited to only choosing the user, having a failure chance, and less coverage. The Level 3, not sure, should be fine, but I'm just eyeballing it.

Gamble right now might not be permissible since it's currently bundling several different effects. I suggest you remove the SYN bonus option from the base Action (since the Level 2 upgrade already adds that effect anyway), and instead change it to allowing her to use two Offensive Actions the next turn and then defining Reload as an Offensive Action. That restructure would make it slightly more versatile and remove the bundling.

Taunt is similar to It That Embraces' Flare with the Awe of Greater Creation (Active at Level 2, a SYN versus INT roll targeting all foes, failure forces the foe to target the user or cover, RES is doubled for the turn) but the choice in upgrades differentiates the two. Not sure about the Level 2 and Level 3 upgrade, seeing as it means that foes with insufficient INT will be stuck targeting her even when the rest of the party wails on them. I mean, I get that the idea is that anything still targeting her the following turn is going to run straight into a Counter but the indefinite effect seems a bit iffy to me. Consider making it increase the chances of her being targeted rather than forcing foe to attack, in order balance out the longer duration. Or alternatively just give it a chance of automatically using Counter when performing it.

Slam doesn't have any precedents that I know of. Should be fine, well, aside from the party already having excessive amounts of Stun.

Guarding Stab also doesn't have any precedents I know of, but it seems fine. However, ask Elf or Sanure if removing it and upgrading Basic Defense to give it the option of still using Basic Attack at half power could be done for 1 Action Point. Because it'd be almost mechanically identical, and you'd have freed up an Action Point you could spend on something else if that's the case.

And just a disclaimer that I just loiter around here giving advice, and badger the GMs, I don't have any authority at all, so if any of the above recommendations seem interesting, you'll still need to run it through Elf or Sanure.

weh, I feel like my formulas are getting overly complex, but otherwise they seem balanced to me, i dunno. I did take most of your suggestions into account, though. Well, except the last one, that requires Word of GM.

What's a good baseline for defense, btw? Subtract RES from damage, do a RES roll to resist, what?
