Uchiha Sasuke :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: FIGHTERS :: = ============================================================================== - Gameplay Info - Sasuke is a decent overall character. He's not particularly strong, but he's not weak either. As a special bonus, Sasuke can throw kunais while running, and continue running at the opponent. From far distances he can throw a few sets and they will all combo. Sasuke can follow with a combo after using them. - Special Attacks - Whip Throw Y floats Lion Rendan X req. 100% chakra, charge for damage Double Kunai A Triple Kunai charge A level 1 charge, staggers Quad Kunai charge A level 2 charge, knockback Air Double Kunai jump A Triple Upper Kunai u+A Katon f+A floats Deadly Katon f+A hold floats, drains chakra Teleport Axe b+A knockdown Running Kunai run+A can keep running - Basic Attacks & Strings - PP-Lion Rendan BBX req. 100% chakra, charge for damage PP-Double Kunai BBA can charge for 3 or 4 kunai PPK-Teleport Axe BBBA knockdown PPK-Launch BBBB floats PPK-Launch-Katon BBBBA floats PPK-Launch-Deadly Katon BBBBA hold floats, drains chakra Sasuke Frenzy Launch BBBBB floats Sasuke Frenzy Complete BBBBBBB slamdown Flash Combo f+BBB knockback Flash-Razor Kunai Option f+BAAA can charge for 3 or 4 kunai Flash-Razor Kunai-Axe f+BABA knockdown Flash-Razor Kunai-Launch f+BABB floats Flash-Razor Kunai-Katon f+BABBA floats Flash-Razor Kunai-D.

Haruno Sakura :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: FIGHTERS :: = ============================================================================== - Gameplay Info - A bit different than the normal characters (only similar to Ino), the first difference with Sakura is that her throw does not launch. However, she can get a free quick hit if it connects. Another difference is that she has a lot more projectile attacks than the normal character. With three sets in the air and a heat-seeking L2 charged ground projectile (that launches!), Sakura isn't bad. - Special Attacks - Push Throw Y staggers Inner Sakura X req. 100% chakra Shuriken A Shuriken Combo 3 AA Shuriken Combo 6 AAA Shuriken Spread charge A level 1 charge Shuriken Heat Seeker charge A level 2 charge, heat seeking Air Double Shuriken jump A Air Double Double Shuriken jump AA Air Triple Double Shuriken jump AAA 5-Star Attack u+A Reverse Teleport f+A or run+A teleports (if close, goes behind) Sakura Replacement b+A teleports to air, can do air moves - Basic Attacks & Strings - PP-Inner Sakura BBX req. 100% chakra PP-Zip Combo BBBB PP-Zip Combo-Double BBBBA PP-Zip Combo-Double Double BBBBAA PP-Zip Combo-Triple Double BBBBAAA PP-Shurikens BBA knockdown PP-Shuriken Extra BBAA knockdown PP-Shurikens-Spin Kick BBAB flying screen P-Shuriken BA P-Shuriken Combo 3 BAA P-Shuriken Combo 6 BAAA P-Shruiken Spread B-charge A level 1 charge P-Shuriken Heat Seeker B-charge A level 2 charge, heat seeking Double Backhand b+B auto-guard Double-Shurikens b+BA knockdown Double-Shuriken Extra b+BAA knockdown Double-Shurikens-Spin Kick b+BAB flying screen Triple Backhand b+BB auto-guard, knockdown Rising Kick u+B staggers Rising Kick-Spin Kick u+BB flying screen Rising Kick-Slide u+BA knockdown Low Backhand Sweep d+B knockdown Upper-Back Kick f+BB floats Flying Axe jump B floats, slamdown Haymaker-Zip Combo run+BBB slamdown Haymaker-Zip-Double run+BBBA Haymaker-Zip-Double Double run+BBBAA Haymaker-Zip Triple Double run+BBBAAA Haymaker-Double Shuriken run+BA Haymaker-Quad Shurikens run+BAA Kunai Spin-Shurikens d+AA floats Kunai Spin-Shuriken Combo d+AAA - Combos - command hits dmg note f+BB, BB -> X 23 60% u+B, dash, throw, BBAB 7 25% u+B, d+BB(4-hits), b+BB 9 30% u+B, dash, throw, f+BB, BB -> X 24 55% jump B, f+BB, BB -> X 24 70% d+AA(5-hit), BBBB 10 35% d+AA(5-hit), BBBB, jump AA(delay)A 16 38% #1 jump AAA, BB -> X 27 55% #2 jump AA(delay)A, u+B, dash, throw, BB -> X 28 55% #3 jump AA(delay)A, u+B, BBAB, X 31 65% #3 charge A(L2), dash X 25 50% notes: #1: can be teched #2: midscreen only #3: must throw opponent at 80 degree angle to wall ============================================================================== = :: 004. Rock Lee ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: FIGHTERS :: = ============================================================================== - General Info - Rock is very unique in that he has two different super moves. His primary Initial Lotus is his basic super, but he can also perform the Ura Renge by first opening additional gates. Once he has performed the gate opening technique twice, he will start losing life very rapidly. However, his super will be changed to the Ura Renge. While both gates are open, Rock will gradually gain super meter back. - Special Attacks - Whip Throw Y floats Initial Lotus X req. 100% chakra Gate Open 1 d+X req. 40% chakra Gate Open 2 d+X during Gate Open 1, req. 40% chakra Ura Renge X during Gate Open 2, req. 100% chakra Rock Parry b+A auto-guard, staggers opponent Taijutsu Double Kick f+A knockback Spinning Sweep d+A knockdown Flying Hammer jump A slamdown, floats Mega Overhand run+A knockdown - Basic Attacks & Strings - PP-Cancel Trick BBX or BBd+X reg. 100% chakra or 40% chakra PP-Scissor Kicks BBBB floats PP-Scissor Buster BBBBA flying screen PP-Backfist BBBA knockback PP-Stun Palm BBAAB knockdown PP-Rock Blast BBAAA flying screen Elbow-Scissor Kicks f+BB floats Elbow-Scissor Buster f+BBA flying screen Elbow-Backfist f+BA knockback Scissor Kicks u+B floats Scissor Blaster u+BA flying screen Step Punch-Palms b+BB auto-guard Step Punch-Rock Dive b+BBAB knockdown Step Punch-Rock Blast b+BBAA flying screen Step Punch-Spinning Sweep b+BA knockdown Stomp-Palms d+BB auto-guard Stomp-Rock Dive d+BBAB knockdown Stomp-Rock Blast d+BBAA flying screen Stomp-Spinning Sweep d+BA knockdown Dive Kick jump B floats Lunge Kick run+B knockback Stun Palm A staggers Stun Palm-Cancel Trick ABX or ABd+X req. 100% chakra or 40% chakra Stun Combo-Scissor Kicks ABBB floats Stun Combo-Scissor Buster ABBBA flying screen Stun Palm-Backfist ABBA knockback Stun Palm-Rock Dive ABAAB knockdown Stun Palm-Rock Blast ABAAA flying screen Hammer-Backfist u+ABA knockback Hammer-Scissor Kicks u+ABB floats Hammer-Scissor Buster u+ABBA flying screen - Combos - ============================================================================== = :: 005. Hyuuga Neji :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: FIGHTERS :: = ============================================================================== - General Info - Neji (like Hinata) benefits from the ability to cancel attack strings and go directly into throw or back into more strings. A special feature of Neji only is that he can erase some of his opponents chakra with certain attacks. - Special Attacks - Whip Throw Y floats 64 Palms X req. 100% chakra, drains opp. chakra Double Kunai A Quad Kunai charge A Double Kunai Upper u+A Air Double Kunai jump A Kaiten Counter b+A auto-guard, hold A, drains chakra Chakra Limiter f+A erases 40% opponent chakra Crouch Dash f+AY - Basic Attacks & Strings - PP Feint BBY cancels second P PP-64 Palms BBX req. 100% chakra, drains opp. chakra PP-Triple Kicks BBBBB floats PPK-Double Kunai BBBA charge for 4 kunai PPKK-Mini Limiter BBBBA erases 10% opponent chakra PP-Limiter BBA erases 40% opponent chakra PP-Crouch Dash BBAY Neji Flash f+BBB knockback Neji Flash Feint f+BBBY cancels elbow Neji Rush f+BBA staggers Neji Rush-PP Feint f+BBABBY cancels second P Neji Rush-PP-64 Palms f+BBABBX req. 100% chakra, drains opp. chakra Neji Rush-PP-Triple Kicks f+BBABBBBB floats Neji Rush-PPK-Double Kunai f+BBABBBA charge for 4 kunai Neji Rush-PPKK-Mini Limiter f+BBABBBBA erases 10% opponent chakra Neji Rush-PP-Limiter f+BBABBA erases 40% opponent chakra Neji Rush-PP-Crouch Dash f+BBABBAY Low Kick-Up Kick d+BB floats Low Rush d+BA staggers Low Rush-PP Feint f+BBABBY cancels second P Low Rush-PP-64 Palms f+BBABBX req. 100% chakra Low Rush-PP-Triple Kicks f+BBABBBBB floats Low Rush-PPK-Double Kunai f+BBABBBA charge for 4 kunai Low Rush-PPKK-Mini Limiter f+BBABBBBA erases 10% opponent chakra Low Rush-PP-Limiter f+BBABBA erases 40% opponent chakra Low Rush-PP-Crouch Dash f+BBABBAY Launch Kick u+B floats Spinning Palm b+B auto-guard, staggers Diving Elbow jump B floats Running Flash run+B knockback Slash d+A stagger Slash-PP Feint d+ABBY cancels second P Slash-PP-64 Palms d+ABBX req. 100% chakra, drains opp. chakra Slash-PP-Triple Kicks d+ABBBBB floats Slash-PPK-Double Kunai d+ABBBA charge for 4 kunai Slash-PPKK-Mini Limiter d+ABBBBA erases 10% opponent chakra Slash-PP-Limiter d+ABBA erases 40% opponent chakra Slash-PP-Crouch Dash d+ABBAY Leaping Overhead run+A staggers Leaping Overhead-Flash run+AB knockback - Combos - ============================================================================== = :: 006. Hyuuga Hinata :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: FIGHTERS :: = ============================================================================== - General Info - Hinata (like Neji) benefits from the ability to cancel attack strings and go directly into throw or back into more strings. Hinata is different in that she has multiple cancel points for many of her strings. Her throw game is amped up because of this, since it allows her to keep the opponent guessing. - Special Attacks - Whip Throw Y floats Hyuuga Blitz X req. 100% chakra Double Shuriken A Quad Shuriken charge A Triple Shuriken Upper u+A Air Double Shuriken jump A Hinata Parry b+A staggers & pushes opponent to side Running Upper run+A - Basic Attacks & Strings - PP-Feint BBY cancels second P PP-Blitz BBX req. 100% chakra PPPK-Spin Upper BBBBB floats PPPK-Straight Upper BBBBA floats PPP-Slash BBBA staggers PPP-Slash-PP Feint BBBABBY cancels second P PPP-Slash-PP-Power Palm BBBABBB knockback PPP-Slash-PP-Palm-Feint BBBABBAAY cancels second spin palm PPP-Slash-PP-Palms BBBABBAA knockback PP-Spin Palm-Feint BBAAY cancels second spin palm PP-Spin Palms BBAA knockback Palm Press-Feint f+BBY cancels ridge Palm Press-Ridge-Power Palm f+BBB knockback Palm Press-Palm-Feint f+BBAAY cancels second spin palm Palm Press-Palms f+BBAA knockback Palm Sweep d+B knockdown Palm Sweep-Spin Upper d+BB floats Spin Single Palm b+B auto-guard, staggers Spin Upper u+B floats Power Palm run+B knockback Air Rush jump B floats Spin Palm-Feint f+AAY cancels second spin palm Spin Palms f+AA knockback Slash d+A staggers Slash-PP Feint d+ABBY cancels second P Slash-PP-Power Palm d+ABBB knockback Slash-PP-Palm-Feint d+ABBAAY cancels second spin palm Slash-PP-Palms d+ABBAA knockback - Combos - command hits dmg note d+BB, BB -> X 23 60% throw, u+A(2-hit), jump back B, u+B, BBBBB, d+B 12 55% #1,2 throw, u+A(2-hit), run A, BB -> X 23 75% #1 throw, u+A(1-hit), jump back B, u+A(1-hit), BB -> X 23 70% #1 throw, u+A(1-hit), jump back B, u+B, BB -> X 24 75% #1 notes: #1: midscreen only #2: last hit can be teched ============================================================================== = :: 007. Inuzuka Kiba ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: FIGHTERS :: = ============================================================================== - General Info - Kiba is one of the characters that actually has a "helper" in battle. While Akamaru is directly tied in to Kibas strings, he can also be used in place of most other characters projectile attack. He has solid juggling ability and his combos can inflict respectable damage with both long and short variations. - Special Attacks - Whip Throw Y floats Beast Imitation X req. 100% chakra Akamaru Shot A Akamaru must not be busy Akamaru Bite charge A staggers Double Shuriken A when Akamaru is busy Double Shuriken Upper u+A Air Double Shuriken jump+A Akamaru Ready d+A (hold A) Akamaru attacks when Kiba is hit - Basic Attacks & Strings - PP-Imitation BBX PPK-Claw-Pogo BBBAB PPK-Claw-Pogo-Ball BBBABB PPK-Claw Combo BBBAA floats PPK-Claw Combo-Ball BBBAAB PP-Akamaru Combo BBAAA floats Slice-PK-Imitation u+BBX Slice-PK-Claw-Pogo u+BBBAB Slice-PK-Claw-Pogo-Ball u+BBBABB Slice-PK-Claw Combo u+BBBAA floats Slice-PK-Claw Combo-Ball u+BBBAAB Slice-P-Akamaru Combo u+BBAAA floats Scoop-Pogo-Ball f+BBB Scoop-Akamaru Shot f+BA floats Sweep d+B knockdown Sweep-Akamaru Sweep d+BB knockdown Ball run+B knockdown Double Ball run+BB knockdown Axe Slam b+B slamdown Air Ball jump B Double Claw Upper f+A floats Double Claw Upper-Ball f+AB Twist-PK-Imitation run+ABBX Twist-PK-Claw-Pogo run+ABBBAB Twist-PK-Claw-Pogo-Ball run+ABBBABB Twist-PK-Claw Combo run+ABBBAA Twist-PK-Claw Combo-Ball run+ABBBAAB Twist-P-Akamaru Combo run+ABBAAA - Combos - command hits dmg note BBAAA, run BAA -> X 15 70% #1 f+BA, f+BA, u+A, f+AB, d+A 10 45% #2 f+BA, f+BA, u+A(2-hit), BB -> X 15 75% f+BA, u+AAABBA, d+A 10 45% #2 f+BA, u+A, f+B, BB -> X 14 60% notes: #1: midscreen only #2: last hit can be teched ============================================================================== = :: 008. Nara Shikamaru ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: FIGHTERS :: = ============================================================================== - General Info - Shikamaru is one of the stronger characters due to his special cancel ability. He can actually stagger the opponent, cancel out of the string, then go right back on the attack. From here, he can finish the combo or stagger again. The mix-ups are strong and especially deadly when the opponents chakra is low. - Special Attacks - Whip Throw Y floats Shadow Copy X req. 100% chakra Double Shuriken A Shuriken Quad Spread charge A level 1 charge Shuriken 6-Shot Spread charge A level 2 charge Triple Shuriken Upper u+A Air Double Shuriken jump A Shika Kneel b+A stance Trip Slash d+A knockdown Lunge Hammer f+A slamdown, floats - Basic Attacks & Strings - PP-Shadow Copy BBX req. 100% chakra PPK-Kneel BBBA stance Reverse Kick b+B staggers Reverse Kick-Kneel b+BA stance Sweep d+B knockdown Sweep-Triple Kicks d+BBB knockback Upper Kick-Triple Shuriken u+BA floats Mini Kicks-Slash Trip f+BBA knockdown Dive Knee jump B floats Slash Trip d+A knockdown - Shika Stance Attacks (attacks done during kneel) - Stance Cancel Y back to stand animation Dive Knee B staggers Dive Knee-Upper-Shuriken BBA floats Dive Knee-Upper-Backhand BBB Reverse Slash A staggers Reverse Slash-Mini-Triple ABB knockback Reverse Slash-Mini-Kunais ABA floats Reverse Double Slash-Power AAB knockback - Combos - ============================================================================== = :: 009. Yamanaka Ino ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: FIGHTERS :: = ============================================================================== - General Info - Ino doesn't benefit from multiple projectiles like Sakura. Also, her super is very true to the anime in that, if you miss it, Ino is left wide open for a considerable amount of time. This is a big disadvantage since Ino does not have a large number of ways to combo her super. She does, however, share the same push throw that Sakura has. - Special Attacks - Stagger Throw Y staggers Shintenshin X req. 100% chakra Double Kunai A Power Double Kunai charge A Triple Kunai Upper u+A Air Double Kunai jump A Ino Replacement b+A auto-guard Kunai Slide f+A - Basic Attacks & Strings - PP-Shintenshin BBX req. 100% meter PPK-Knee-Flipkick-Power BBBBBB knockback PPK-Knee-Flipkick-Kunai BBBBBA PPK-Teleport BBBA teleport behind opponent PP-Double Kunai BBA can charge for Power Kunai Sweep d+B knockdown Sweep-Cartwheel d+BB knockdown Sweep-Double Cartwheel d+BBB slamdown Sweep-Kunai Slide d+BA knockdown Backhand b+B slamdown Backhand-Knee-Slam b+BBB slamdown Backhand-Kunai b+BA can charge for Power Kunai Slam Cartwheel u+B slamdown Up Elbow-TP Kick-Slam f+BBB slamdown Running Up Kick-Slam run+BB slamdown Air Flipkick jump B floats Ino Combo Slam d+ABBB slamdown Ino Combo Kunai d+AA floats Chop-Ino Combo Slam run+AABBB slamdown Chop-Ino Combo Kunai run+AAA floats - Combos - command hits dmg note jump B, f+BBB 4 20% jump B, d+BBB 7 25% jump B, jump B, jump B 3 15% #1 jump B, jump B, d+BBB 7 25% #1 jump B, jump B, BBBBBB 8 35% #1 jump B, jump B, BBX 6 60% #1 d+AA(2-hits), d+AA(3-hits), d+BA 9 30% d+AA(3-hits), BBX 8 60% #2 run+AAA(3-hits), BBBBBB 11 40% notes: #1: second jump B must be very late #2: near wall ============================================================================== = :: 010. Hakate Kakashi ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: FIGHTERS :: = ============================================================================== - General Info - Overall, Kakashi is an O.K. character. He has no major advantages, but he lacks in terms of combos and overall damage. His Chidori super can be charged for extra damage. He is another of the few characters with an air throw. - Special Attacks - Whip Throw Y floats Chidori X req. 100% chakra, charge for damage Double Kunai A Triple Kunai charge A Air Double Kunai jump A Quad Kunai Upper u+A 1000 Years of Pain Counter b+A auto-guard Gound Grab d+A hit throw - Basic Attacks & Strings - PP-Chidori BBX req. 100% chakra, charge for damage PP-Knee-Crush Kick BBBB knockback PP-Double Knee BBBA PP-Double Knee-Axe BBBAB slamdown PP-Double Knee-Kunai BBBAA PP-Double Kunai BBA can charge for 3 kunai Lunge-Upper-Chidori b+BBX req. 100% chakra, charge for damage Lunge-Upper-Knee b+BBB floats Lunge-Upper-Knee-Crush b+BBBB knockback Lunge-Upper-2 Knee b+BBBA Lunge-Upper-2 Knee-Axe b+BBBAB slamdown Lunge-Upper-2 Knee-Kunai b+BBBAA Sweep d+B knockdown Sweep-Gut-Chidori d+BBX req. 100% chakra, charge for damage Sweep-Gut-Power Kick d+BBB knockback Sweep-Gut-Double Kunai d+BBA can charge for 3 kunai Power Kick f+B knockback Step Kick-Elbow Dive u+B floats Elbow Dive jump B floats Slash-P-Chidori f+ABX req. 100% chakra, charge for damage Slash-P-Knee-Crush Kick f+ABBB knockback Slash-P-Double Knee f+ABBA Slash-P-Double Knee-Axe f+ABBAB slamdown Slash-P-Double Knee-Kunai f+ABBAA Slash-P-Double Kunai f+ABA can charge for 3 kunai Kunai-Upper-Chidori run+ABX req. 100% chakra, charge for damage Kunai-Upper-Knee run+ABB floats Kunai-Upper-Knee-Crush run+ABBB knockback Kunai-Upper-2 Knee run+ABBA Kunai-Upper-2 Knee-Axe run+ABBAB slamdown Kunai-Upper-2 Knee-Kunai run+ABBAA - Combos - ============================================================================== = :: 011. Maito Gai :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: FIGHTERS :: = ============================================================================== - General Info - Gai is basically a Rock clone with a few minor changes. First of all, he can't open any gates. Secondly, he has slightly different attack strings that can do a bit of damage, then leave the opponent staggered. Overall, Rock is a much better character, but Gai can hold his own. - Special Attacks - Whip Throw Y floats Gai Hug X req. 100% chakra Gai Teleport b+A auto-guard, teleport behind opponent Taijutsu Double Kick f+A knockback Spinning Sweep d+A knockdown Flying Hammer jump A slamdown, floats Mega Overhand run+A knockdown - Basic Attacks & Strings - PP-Gai Hug BBX reg. 100% chakra PP-Fist BBB floats PP-Fist-Scissors BBBB floats PP-Fist-Buster BBBBA flying screen PP-Fist-Backfist BBBA knockback PP-Fist-DP-Dive BBAAB floats or knockdown PP-Fist-DP-Buster BBAAB knockdown Fist f+B staggers Fist-Scissors f+BB floats Fist-Buster f+BBA flying screen Fist-Backfist f+BA knockback Scissors u+B floats Blaster u+BA flying screen Step Punch-Palms b+BB auto-guard Step Punch-Dive b+BBAB knockdown Step Punch-Buster b+BBAA flying screen Step Punch-Spinning Sweep b+BA knockdown Stomp-Palms d+BB auto-guard Stomp-Dive d+BBAB knockdown Stomp-Blast d+BBAA flying screen Stomp-Spinning Sweep d+BA knockdown Lunge Kick run+B knockback Dive Kick jump B floats Stun Palm A Stun Combo-Gai Hug ABX req. 100% chakra Stun Combo-Fist ABB staggers Stun Combo-Scissors ABBB Stun Combo-Buster ABBBA flying screen Stun Combo-Backfist ABBA knockback Stun Combo-Dive ABAAB knockdown Stun Combo-Buster ABAAA flying screen Teleport Axe u+A knockdown Teleport Axe-Fist u+AB knockdown or staggers Teleport Axe-Fist-Backhand u+ABA knockback Teleport Axe-Fist-Scissors u+ABB floats Teleport Axe-Fist-Buster u+ABBA flying screen - Combos - ============================================================================== = :: 012. Iruka :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: FIGHTERS :: = ============================================================================== - General Info - Iruka is another of the relatively decent characters. He doesn't have much in the way of combos but still does decent damage. His Double Mega Shuriken can be used for big damage (even guard damage) if it hits the opponent from a distance while Iruka runs at the opponent. On big stages, the shuriken can hit almost thirty times! - Special Attacks - Whip Throw Y floats Dolphin Bomb X req. 100% chakra Mega Shuriken A Double Mega Shuriken charge A Quad Kunai Upper u+A Air Double Kunai jump A Iruka Replacement b+A auto-guard, staggers Running Upper run+A floats - Basic Attacks & Strings - PP-Dolphin Bomb BBX req. 100% chakra PPP-Launch-Dive BBBBB knockdown or stagger PPP-Launch-Kunai BBBBA PPP-Teleport BBBA teleport behind opponent PPP-Teleport-Launch-Dive BBBABB knockdown or stagger PPP-Teleport-Launch-Kunai BBBABA PPP-Teleport-Lunge BBBAA knockback PP-Mega Shuriken BBA can charge for Double Mega Shuriken PP-Mega Shuriken-Lunge BBAA knockback Fist-Launch-Dive f+BBB knockdown or stagger Fist-Launch-Kunai f+BBA Fist-Teleport f+BA teleport behind opponent Fist-Teleport-Launch-Dive f+BABB knockdown or stagger Fist-Teleport-Launch-Kunai f+BABA Fist-Teleport-Lunge f+BAA knockback Hop u+B staggers Hop-Upper u+BB floats Hop-Upper-Shuriken u+BBA can charge for Double Mega Shuriken Hop-Upper-Shuriken-Lunge u+BBAA knockback Sweep d+B knockdown Sweep-Upper d+BB floats Sweep-Upper-Shuriken d+BBA can charge for Double Mega Shuriken Sweep-Upper-Shuriken-Lunge d+BBAA knockback Windup Kick b+B auto-guard, knockdown Running Slam Kick run+B slamdown Dive Kick jump B staggers Teleport f+A teleport behind if close to opponent Teleport-Launch-Dive f+ABB knockdown or stagger Teleport-Launch-Kunai f+ABA Teleport-Lunge f+AA knockback Cut-Launch-Dive d+ABB knockdown or stagger Cut-Launch-Kunai d+ABA Cut-Teleport d+AA teleport behind if close to opponent Cut-Teleport-Launch-Dive d+AABB knockdown or stagger Cut-Teleport-Launch-Kunai d+AABA Cut-Teleport-Lunge d+AAA knockback - Combos - ============================================================================== = :: 013. Haku ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: FIGHTERS :: = ============================================================================== - General Info - Haku is a very strong character due to his great combo ability and his special Air Ice Shards. Since he can throw out the Air Ice Shards and keep them there by draining chakra, he can create stronger pressure strings and higher damage combos. Definitely not one to underestimate, Haku is strong! - Special Attacks - Whip Throw Y floats Demonic Ice Mirrors X req. 100% chakra Ice Shot A Ice Shot-Double Ice AA Ice Shot Stagger charge A staggers Ice Shot Stagger-Double Ice charge AA Running Double Ice run+A keeps running after throwing ice Ice 5-Shot Upper u+A Air Ice Shards jump A Air Homing Ice Shards jump A hold rel.

Momochi Zabuza ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: FIGHTERS :: = ============================================================================== - Gameplay Info - For some reason, Zabuza is one of the least equipped big-name characters. He lacks a legitamate launcher and his overall combo damage, for what few combos he has, is pretty low. He almost makes up for it with his long range which works ok to keep opponents away, but without the ability to capitalize on openings as well as other characters, he ends up at a disadvantage. - Special Attacks - Power Slam Y Demon Mist X req. 100% chakra Demon Horizontal-Slam AAAB slamdown Demon Horizontal-Slash AAAA knockback Demon Slam Combo ABB slamdown Demon Long Combo-Slam ABAAAB slamdown Demon Long Combo-Slash ABAAAA knockback Demon Short Combo-Slam f+AAAB slamdown Demon Short Combo-Slash f+AAAA knockback Demon Water Replacement b+A auto-guard, teleport behind opponent Demon Trip d+A knockdown Demon Replacement Slash u+A knockdown Demon Turn Kick run+A knockback Demon Power Stun jump A staggers - Basic Attacks & Strings - PP-Demon Mist BBX req. 100% chakra PP-Slam Combo BBBB slamdown PP-Demon Short-Slam BBBAAAB slamdown PP-Demon Short-Slash BBBAAAA knockback PP-Demon Mini-Slam BBAAB slamdown PP-Demon Mini-Slash BBAAA knockback P-Demon Trip BA knockdown Windup-Slam Combo b+BBB slamdown Windup-Demon Short-Slam b+BBAAAB slamdown Windup-Demon Short-Slash b+BBAAAA knockback Windup-Demon Mini-Slam b+BAAB slamdown Windup-Demon Mini-Slash b+BAAA knockback Slam Combo f+BB slamdown Demon Short-Slam f+BAAAB slamdown Demon Short-Slash f+BAAAA knockback Hop u+B stagger Hop-Upper-Slam u+BAB slamdown Hop-Upper-Slash u+BAA knockback Power Slam d+B slamdown Running Double Hammer run+B slamdown Sword Quake jump B - Combos - command hits dmg note jump A, throw, d+A (or d+B) 2 35% #1 jump A, throw, run A 2 35% #1 jump A, throw, BBX 10 75% #2 jump A, BB -> X (10-hits, 60%) jump A, BBBAAAB, run A 9 50% #1 notes: #1: last hit can be teched #2: tall characters only ============================================================================== = :: 015. Kankuro :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: FIGHTERS :: = ============================================================================== - General Info - Kankuro is one of the trickier characters in the game because he actually fights with his doll, Karasu. With good doll-management, Kankuro can be a very effective opponent. The trick is to manage the doll movement while attacking or evading with Kankuro. Another bonus is that Karasu can act as a shield for Kankuro if he is hit. However, the downside is that you will lose chakra as Karasu is struck. - Special Attacks - Whip Throw Y floats (Kankuro or Karasu can grab) Karasu Hug X req. 100% chakra Smoke Bomb A staggers Super Smoke Bomb charge A staggers (larger cloud) Karasu Quad Kunai u+A Air Karasu 5-Shot Kunai jump A Karasu must be in air Karasu Return b+A pulls Karasu back to Kankuro - Basic Attacks & Strings - PP-Karasu Hug BBX req. 100% chakra PP-Upper-Slam BBBB slamdown PP-Upper-Karasu TP BBBA floats PP-Upper-Karasu TP-Kunai BBBAA PP-Doll-PK-Slide BBABBB knockback PP-Doll-P-Doll-Flip BBABAB PP-Doll-P-Doll-Doll Upper BBABAA press A (up to 4) for more uppers PP-Doll-P-Doll-Doll Slam BBABAA(x4)A slamdown PP-Doll-Doll Drills BBAAA P-Doll-PK-Slide BABBB knockback P-Doll-P-Doll-Flip BABAB P-Doll-P-Doll-Doll Upper BABAA press A (up to 4) for more uppers P-Doll-P-Doll-Doll Slam BABAA(x4)A slamdown P-Doll-Doll Drills BAAA Shoulder-K-Slide f+BBB knockback Shoulder-Doll-Flip f+BAB Shoulder-Doll-Doll Upper f+BAA press A (up to 4) for more uppers Shoulder-Doll-Doll Slam f+BAA(x4)A slamdown Low P-Upper-Slam d+BBB slamdown Low P-Upper-Karasu TP d+BBA floats Low P-Upper-Karasu TP-Kunai d+BBAA Haymaker b+A auto-guard, knockback Flip u+A Slide run+A knockback Jumping Slam jump A slamdown, floats Doll-PK-Slide f+ABBB knockback Doll-P-Doll-Flip f+ABAB Doll-P-Doll-Doll Upper f+ABAA press A (up to 4) for more uppers Doll-P-Doll-Doll Slam f+ABAA(x4)A slamdown Doll-Doll Drills f+AAA Doll Upper d+A press A (up to 4) for more uppers Doll Slam d+A(x4)A slamdown, floats Doll Drills run+AA - Combos - ============================================================================== = :: 016. Gaara :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: FIGHTERS :: = ============================================================================== - Gameplay Info - Gaara is solid due to strong simple combos and high damage. Even his most basic combos do respectable damage. Once his super is added, he can really rack up the pain. Aside from that, he has no other major differences. - Special Attacks - Whip Throw Y floats Desert Coffin X req. 100% chakra Double Sand Blast A Triple Double Sand Blast charge A level 1 charge Air Sand Blast jump A Sand Shredder f+A knockdown Sand Shield d+A knockback Gaara Replacement b+A auto-guard, teleports behind Sand Slide run+A - Basic Attacks & Strings - Dive Kick jump B floats Spin Kick run+B knockback PP-Desert Coffin BBX req. 100% chakra PP-Desert Blaster BBBBB knockback PP-Sand Shredder BBBA knockdown PP-Sand Destructor BBABAA knockback PP-Sand Upper-Backhand BBABB PP-Sand Upper-Sand Blast BBAA Desert Blaster f+BBB knockback Sand Destructor f+BBAA knockback Backhand-Sand Shredder f+BA knockdown Crush Hook b+B staggers Crush Hook-Spin Kick b+BBB knockback Crush Hook-Shredder b+BBA knockdown Trip d+B knockdown Trip-Blaster d+BBB knockback Trip-Destructor d+BBAA knockback Trip-Sand Upper-Blaster d+BABB knockback Trip-Sand Upper-Destructor d+BABAA knockback Trip-Double Sand Upper d+BB floats Trip-Triple Sand Upper d+BBB floats Rising Knee-Dive Kick u+BB floats Rising Knee-Sand Blast u+BA Power Upper-Blaster u+ABB knockback Power Upper-Desructor u+ABAA knockback - Combos - command hits dmg note d+BAAA, f+B 10 35% d+BAAA, u+BB 6 37% d+BAAA, d+BAAA, d+BAA, d+BAAA 15 60% d+BAAA, X 6 70% d+BAAA, d+BABAA 8 45% d+BAA, BBABAA 9 50% d+BAA, d+BAA, d+BABAA 11 55% d+BAA, d+BAAA, X 9 85% throw, f+BABB 4 40% throw, dash, d+BAAA, X 6 80% throw, dash d+BAA, d+BAAA, X 9 95% u+BB, BBABAA 8 50% jump B, BBBBB 6 40% jump B, BBABAA 7 45% ============================================================================== = :: 017. Orochimaru ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: FIGHTERS :: = ============================================================================== - General Info - Orochimaru has the best super in the game. Not only does it do 45% damage, but it seals the opponents chakra meter for the rest of the round. What this means is, the opponent can not use their supers, replacement technique, or any ability that requires charging that would normally use chakra. After that, the rest of his stuff doesn't really matter seeing as every chain or combo he connects with is inescapable! - Special Attacks - Whip Throw Y floats Chakra Seal X req. 100% chakra (seals opp. chakra) Triple Kunai A Kunai 5-Shot charge A Kunai 5-Shot Upper u+A Air Double Kunai jump A Orochi Katon f+A floats Orochi Deadly Katon f+A hold floats, drains chakra Orochi Teleport b+A hold A to stay invis, drains chakra Orochi Slide run+A knockdown - Basic Attacks & Strings - PP-Orochi Seal BBX req. 100% chakra (seals opp. chakra) PP-Orochi Slam Combo BBBBBB slamdown PP-Orochi Serpent Combo BBBBBA PP-Orochi Slide Combo BBBBA knockdown PP-Orochi Serpent Combo 2 BBBAA Claw f+B staggers Claw-2 Slash-Axe Attack f+BAB slamdown, floats Claw-2 Slash-Serpent Extra f+BAAA Double Claw b+B floats Double Claw-Katon b+BA floats Double Claw-Deadly Katon b+BA hold floats, drains chakra Trip d+B knockdown Trip-Orochi Slam Combo d+BBBBB slamdown Trip-Orochi Serpent Combo d+BBBBA Trip-Orochi Slide Combo d+BBBA knockdown Trip-Orochi Serpent Combo 2 d+BBAA Trip-Orochi Serpent Hand d+BA Axe Attack u+B slamdown, floats Running Claw-Serpent Hand run+BA Flying Claw jump B slamdown, floats 2 Slash-Axe Attack d+AB slamdown, floats 2 Slash-Serpent Extra d+AAA - Combos - command hits dmg note charge A(5-hits), f+A, dash, throw, walk forward, X 9 65% #1 u+B, BBX 6 55% u+B, b+AA(hold A, use all 100% chakra) 23 40% #2 f+A(8-hits), dash, X 10 55% b+BA, dash, X 13 65% b+B, d+BBBA 23 40% b+B, BBBBBA 23 40% throw, jump A, BBX 5 60% throw, u+A(3-hits), jump A, X 6 60% throw, u+A(4-hits)x2, BBX 12 75% notes: #1: start from two character widths away from opponent #2: opponent back to wall ============================================================================== = :: 018. Mizuki ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: FIGHTERS :: = ============================================================================== - General Info - As almost a carbon copy of Iruka, Mizuki only has three differences. His u+B is a knockback instead of a stagger, his Air A is a Shuriken instead of Double Kunais, and his u+A is a Double Shuriken Upper instead of a Quad Kunai Upper. - Special Attacks - Whip Throw Y floats Mizuki Bomb X req. 100% chakra Mega Shuriken A Double Mega Shuriken charge A Double Shuriken Upper u+A Air Shuriken jump A Misuki Replacement b+A auto-guard, staggers Running Upper run+A floats - Basic Attacks & Strings - PP-Mizuki Bomb BBX req. 100% chakra PPP-Launch-Dive BBBBB knockdown or stagger PPP-Launch-Kunai BBBBA PPP-Teleport BBBA teleport behind opponent PPP-Teleport-Launch-Dive BBBABB knockdown or stagger PPP-Teleport-Launch-Kunai BBBABA PPP-Teleport-Lunge BBBAA knockback PP-Mega Shuriken BBA can charge for Double Mega Shuriken PP-Mega Shuriken-Lunge BBAA knockback Fist-Launch-Dive f+BBB knockdown or stagger Fist-Launch-Kunai f+BBA Fist-Teleport f+BA teleport behind opponent Fist-Teleport-Launch-Dive f+BABB knockdown or stagger Fist-Teleport-Launch-Kunai f+BABA Fist-Teleport-Lunge f+BAA knockback Hop u+B knockback Sweep d+B knockdown Sweep-Upper d+BB floats Sweep-Upper-Shuriken d+BBA can charge for Double Mega Shuriken Sweep-Upper-Shuriken-Lunge d+BBAA knockback Windup Kick b+B auto-guard, knockdown Running Slam Kick run+B slamdown Dive Kick jump B staggers Teleport f+A teleport behind if close to opponent Teleport-Launch-Dive f+ABB knockdown or stagger Teleport-Launch-Kunai f+ABA Teleport-Lunge f+AA knockback Cut-Launch-Dive d+ABB knockdown or stagger Cut-Launch-Kunai d+ABA Cut-Teleport d+AA teleport behind if close to opponent Cut-Teleport-Launch-Dive d+AABB knockdown or stagger Cut-Teleport-Launch-Kunai d+AABA Cut-Teleport-Lunge d+AAA knockback - Combos - ============================================================================== = :: 019. Karasu ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: FIGHTERS :: = ============================================================================== - General Info - Interestingly enough, Karasu has permanent armor. What this means is, when he is hit, his does not need to recover before performing another action. This allows him to stay in the opponents face while being struck and counter attack them in return. The longer the opponents attack strings, the more time for Karasu to interrupt with an attack of his own. Karasu has no super. - Karasu Attacks - Whip Throw Y floats Smoke Bomb A staggers Super Smoke Bomb charge A staggers (larger cloud) Karasu Quad Kunai u+A Air Karasu 5-Shot Kunai jump A Karasu must be in air Doll Uppers d+A press A (up to 4) for more uppers Doll Uppers-Slam d+A(x4)A slamdown Doll Uppers-Kunai d+A(x4)AA Doll Drills run+AA P-Doll-Doll Uppers BAA press A (up to 4) for more uppers P-Doll-Doll Slam BAA(x4)A slamdown P-Doll-Doll Kunais BAA(x4)AA Karasu Rush-Drill f+BAAA Low Punch d+B knockdown Low Punch-Doll Uppers d+BA press A (up to 4) for more uppers Low Punch-Doll Slam d+BA(x4)A slamdown Low Punch-Kunais d+BA(x4)AA Flip u+B Flip-P-Doll-Doll Uppers u+BBAA press A (up to 4) for more uppers Flip-P-Doll-Doll Slam u+BBAA(x4)A slamdown Flip-P-Doll-Doll Kunais u+BBAA(x4)AA Karasu Haymaker b+B auto-guard Karasu Hammer jump B slamdown, floats - Combos - ============================================================================== = :: 020. Akamaru :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: FIGHTERS :: = ============================================================================== - General Info - Akamaru has both a big benefit and a big disadvantage. The benefit is his obvious size. It's incredibly hard to hit him. His main disadvantage is that he has a lack of decent moves, which basically translates into lack of damage. As another disadvantage, Akamaru loses life when using replacement counter. As a final blow to Akamaru's arsenal, he has no super! - Dog Attacks - Akamaru Bite Y Akamaru Shot A Akamaru Lunge Bite charge A staggers Akamaru Rush run+A or B knockback Akamaru Scratch-Shot f+AA Akamaru Ready d+A (useless?)

Kyubi Naruto ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: FIGHTERS :: = ============================================================================== - Gameplay Info - Unlike the Sharingan Kakashi and Extra Sasuke, this alternate version of Naruto is a very different character. Not only is his super different, but he has no projectile attacks. A lot of his attacks and strings are completely new which makes Kyubi Naruto very interesting. He is very well-rounded and can inflict incredible damage in almost any situation.

Extra Sasuke ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: FIGHTERS :: = ============================================================================== - Gameplay Info - This Sasuke is unique in that he has two supers. One on the ground (Chidori, which can be charged for max damage), and Air Katon. When Chidori is charged to the max level, it auto releases and the camera will change to show Sasuke's face. Aside from minor changes, this Sasuke is almost identical to normal Sasuke.

Sharingan Kakashi :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: FIGHTERS :: = ============================================================================== - General Info - While Sharingan Kakashi is not much different from regular Kakashi, he has a couple of features that make him much better. His b+A counter teleports behind the opponent allowing for different mixup opportunities. Also, if opponent tries to use their super attack, Kakashi can grab it with the b+A and he will perform their super on them. This technique cannot be used on Neji, Hinata, Haku, Kankuro, Gaara, or Gai.

This is one of the easiest ways to figure out where to start. :: Single Player Mode :: -> Arcade (blue sky + arch graphic) -> vs CPU Battle (Gaara graphic) -> vs CPU Team Battle (SECRET: Naruto + Sasuke + Sakura graphic) -> Survival (Naruto vs Kakashi graphic) -> Shadow Battle (SECRET: Naruto vs Shadow-nin graphic) -> Time Attack (clock graphic) Shadow Mode Items (dropped randomly by enemies in Shadow Mode) Scroll: super armor (basic hits have no hit-stun, like Karasu) Shishkabob: gain small portion of health Ramen Bowl: gain larger portion of health Coin: gain 50 units of money Banknote gain 200 units of money :: Multiplayer Mode :: -> Player vs Player (Sakura vs Ino graphic) -> Team Battle (Sakura + Naruto + Sasuke graphic) -> Multiplayer Battle (Sasuke + Naruto + Sakura vs Kakashi graphic) :: Training Mode :: -> Select Char Screen (A or Y to select, B to back up, Z for special char) Options Menu -> CPU action counterhit opponent regains health after combo player regains full chakra after use CPU autoblock gauges (health, chakra, timer) key display command list change character return to title screen :: Story Mode :: -> Begin Story Mode (swing in tree graphic) -> Continue Story Mode (Kakashi reading graphic) -> Select Story Episode (black/white scroll graphic) :: Watch Mode (CPU vs CPU) :: :: Omake Menu :: -> Background Music and SFX (Kakashi graphic) -> Game Stats (Rock Lee Graphic) Page 1 -> fastest round time (seconds:milleseconds) number of projectiles used number of throws used number of dodges used number of replacement jutsus used percentage of throws escaped precentage of story mode complete Page 2 -> total playtime number of times single player complete (unsure) number of times chakra filled (unsure) number of KO's using supers current money number of handicap items (xx/32) highest combo hits -> Character Pictures (Iruka reading graphic) -> Purchased Items (Hokage graphic) :: Ankos Shop :: :: Game Settings :: -> Options (scrolls and books graphic) difficulty rounds round time damage level vibration -> Rankings (Naruto on pedestal graphic) Arcade records Survival records Shadow Battle records Time Attack records Character Use records -> Audio Settings (ear graphic) stereo / mono BGM on / off SFX on / off -> Memory Card (green + orange + red scrolls graphic) save load auto-save on / off -> Erase Game Data (Naruto cleaning graphic) [ VERSUS MODE OPTIONS ] After purchasing specific items from Ankos Shop (arrows pointing up, burgundy square with a scroll, and light blue fans), you can enable them before battles from the stage select screen.

Do that by playing in any of the single player modes. Once you have money, head into Anko's Shop and purchase away! In order to make the best out of your trip to Anko's Shop, match up the icon shown with the listing below. This should help you to choose what to buy first, and what to wait on. - Characters: blue icon, white silhouette Basically keep buying them until they stop appearing. The only character that requires something other than purchasing the characters before him is Extra Sasuke. In order to get Extra Sasuke, you must have Orochimaru unlocked, then purchase the 10th additional story mode battle (Battle #30). This will make Extra Sasuke appear in Anko's Shop. In order for character icons to start appearing, you must beat the first 20 scenes in story mode. - Game Modes: red icon, white kunai There are three additional game modes to unlock: CPU Battle (beat story mode one time), Team Battle (score first in Time Attack), and Shadow Fighting (just unlock Team Battle Mode). Quite honestly, if you are looking to make some serious cash, work on opening up Shadow Fighting first, then spend some time in there collecting money. It's a lot faster and easier than playing story mode over and over again. - New Stage: orange icon, white square/trapezoid These appear one after another. You must unlock one for the next to appear. - Additional Difficulty / Damage: dark blue icon, gray swirls In order to make the Additional Difficulty swirl to appear, place first in Survival Mode. To make Additional Damage appear, place first in Time Attack. - Stat Menus: green icon, 3 white papers Beat the first 20 scenes of story mode to unlock. Basically it opens up the stats screen in Omake (the one with the Rock Lee graphic). This area lets you check some of the stats you've piled up while playing. - Character Profile: indigo icon, white forehead protector Beat the game with a character and the icon for that character will appear. Both Karasu and Akamaru do not have profiles. - Character Sounds: light green icon, white thought bubbles Beat the game with a character and the icon for that character will appear. Karasu, Akamaru, Extra Sasuke, and Sharingan Kakashi do not have special SFX. - Additional Story Mode Battles: light blue icon, white scrolls Beat story episode 20 and the icon for battle 21 will appear. Beat story episode 21 and the icon for battle 22 will appear. Do this until you've unlocked all 10 extra battles (there are 30 total). - Background Music: yellow icon, white cd After purchasing all of the extra stages (orange icon, white square/trapezoid) the BGM icon will appear. Buy it, and you can listen to all the tracks. - Battle Sound Effects: purple icon, white boot on puddle This icon is for the the general game sounds. - Versus Mode Options 1: burgundy icon, arrows pointing up - Versus Mode Options 2: reddish icon, white scroll - Versus Mode Options 3: light blue icon, white fan See the Versus Mode Options translation area for info on these. They unlock one after another. Buy one, the next appears... and so on.
