The Bushido Blade 2 Complete FAQ 1.1. The Most Tactical Analysis FAQ to BB2! By Arlen Kwong (armorMODE@thekingoffighters.com.) Bushido Blade 2 is arguably one of the coolest fighting games on the market. Well, I couldn't wait to get my hands on the U.S. Version, so I imported mine from Japan. Well, Bushido Blade 2 is one of those games that you will either hate or love..frankly, I loved it. Even though doing sidesteps, sidestep attacks, and leaping air moves were removed, I'm thankful for what they put in. Crisp graphics, tight controls, new features, and the classic Bushido Blade gameplay is what this game is all about. The roster was geared up from a mere seven (including Katze-gotta think that guy's cool) to a tight 22!!! (more on that later). My guide will tell you all the tactics you'll need to know for winning a duel in Bushido Blade 2. It will also tell how to acquire all the secret characters, as well as which weapons I think are the best, and which characters I think are the best. It also tells how to play each mode effectively, so you will build up your samurai skills. However, I do somewhat, no HIGHLY suggest that you do NOT use a GameShark to play this game. Since most fighting games nowadays are plagued with little replay value (with the exception of Namco and Capcom fighters, mind you,) it's best to earn the secrets fairly so you will get the most out of your gaming buck ($39.99 for me..exact). If you are looking for a complete movelist on Bushido Blade 2 in here, well, not yet. If you were hoping for that, I suggest you take a look at some of the great FAQs at [http://www.gamefaqs.com] that have them. However, soon they will probably be implemented in my FAQ. Final Note: This guide was based on the JAPANESE version of Bushido Blade 2. We did not change any of the names of characters that may have been changed for the U.S. version, as well as any of the mode names that have been changed (maybe). However, as I can tell, everything in this guide will be applicable to the U.S. version of Bushido Blade 2. Hey, some of the info in here may be wrong, since I'm living in the U.S., can barely read Kanji, and only know so much of Katakana!!!! But probably should be right. Again, e-mail me for bug fixes. Credit will be given for all submissions to my FAQ. [Legal Information] This FAQ is Copyright (c) 1998 Arlen Kwong. No one may reproduce this FAQ without my prior consent-you heard me.

This will probably be updated in Version 1.1., if I have the time to update my FAQ. Kannuki: Kannuki is one of the most powerful characters in Bushido Blade 2. Therefore, you should use the power weapons, like the Nodachi and Naginata, to take full advantage of his strong points. However, Kannuki should be played defensively. Wait for an enemy to be ambitious and strike too early, dodge, and then go in for the victory. Mikado: Once again, Mikado comes as one of the more well- rounded characters of the game. She has pretty good speed to employ, in addition to her above-average power. Like most lightweights in the game, you can play Mikado either offensive or defensively. Use weapons like the Long Sword or Katana, but steer away from the larger weapons that make her sluggish. Tatsumi: Haha.. From the original Bushido Blade cast comes Tatsumi, my personal favorite. Tatsumi has the good speed needed, but he is somewhat lacking in terms of power. But he chain lots of hits together, so use him with the Katana or Long Sword. Since he is not too powerful, stay on the offensive with him. You will need to. Utsusemi: Again, like Tatsumi, Utsusemi comes back from the original cast of Bushido Blade. Much more improved in my opinion, Utsusemi has very good speed, in addition to excellent power. He is pretty much universal in terms of weapon choice, but you shouldn't use a weapon like the Naginata. His best weapon could be the Broadsword or Nodachi. Hotarubi: Hotarubi has very good speed in the game, but her control could be better. Hotarubi seems to remind me of Red Shadow from Bushido Blade, but her speed has greatly increased. Again, like Tatsumi, stay on the offensive and use the weapons sutible for lightweights. However, since her speed is naturally very fast and controlling her can be somewhat unpredictable, only advanced players should stick to using her. Matsumushi: Matsumushi got my attention by how he smokes a pipe. But he is more than just an Ebisumaru look-alike: Matsumushi is one of the most excellent characters in the game. His speed is surprising, especially for an old man. His weapon skills are alright, making him a good beginner's choice. Suminagashi: For the hardcore Kannuki player, we have Suminagashi, the most powerful of all characters in Bushido Blade 2. He is good with any weapon, which is a good thing. Even though he is not that quick, he can take some pretty good hits before going down. He is very controllable, which is why Suminagashi is a good choice. Just remember-you are a powerful, vicious samurai : ). Night Stalker: Night Stalker is the coolest ninja I've ever seen, and he's one of my favorites in Bushido Blade 2. For one thing, he is extremely fast. This is a huge plus in terms of offense. Since he is very fast, you should play Night Stalker offensively and never let up, only to throw shurikens or when your arm is cut. He does have a huge drawback, though: only advanced players can truly play Night Stalker right. If you are a beginner, I suggest you start off with Suminagashi. Sazanka: Never have I EVER seen such a crappy character in a fighting game. Sazanka just.well..sucks. He's too slow to be offensive, and his movements are too sluggish. Pass this guy up. BUT, if you are using him for bragging rights, better use the Naginata and play defensively. Machine Gun Girl: Machine Gun Girl is an excellent choice for ending it `executioner' style (no duh!) Just play keep away and use your gun when you get far away. However, what kinda sucks is that when you play as her you shouldn't keep firing like there's no tomorrow. Why? Because you CAN run out of ammo. After that, you must reload with the Square Button, which will freeze you for a few seconds. Gengoro: Gengoro is the average ho-hum character of Bushido Blade 2. Probably the best weapon for him is the Katana, since sheething his sword and unsheething his sword is probably the best when using that weapon. He is not that quick, so play defensively, and only play offensively when you are playing for bragging rights or against a person that really sucks. Be careful of using the Low Stance too much- when sheething your sword. Kaun: Another mediocre Bushido Blade 2 character, I can't think why a lot of people would play with this guy. Well, only advanced players should pick him, since he has average speed and average power. However, he is deadly with the Yari and can be played very good defensively. Jou: Jou is a very good character in Bushido Blade 2. In our rankings, she earned the highest ranking out of all the characters-14.5. Jou has the speed and good power to win a fight. She is also very good with the Katana, but can do with other weapons, as long as they do not make her too sluggish. Good choice for advanced or beginner players. Chihiro: She is a pretty good character, but you cannot depend on her. Like many other characters in the Shainto Clan, Chihiro is mediocre, but not as mediocre as others. You should stick to the Katana, and perhaps the Yari or Long Sword, but play offensive. Her middle stance is good for fighting, especially in Chambara Mode. Isosachi: Isosachi is a pretty nice character to use for Bushido Blade 2. Like Chihiro, his middle stance is good for fighting in Chambara Mode. Isosachi can use any weapon alright, so keep that in mind when selecting a weapon. Use him in Tournament Mode-he can be a great addition. Utamaru: Really mediocre-just like Sazanka. He sucks at controlling even the most simple of weapons, the Katana. Utamaru shouldn't have been in Bushido Blade 2. His speed is only average, and you shouldn't use him in Tournament Mode unless absolutely necessary. Hongou: Hongu simply kicks butt in Bushido Blade 2. He is another one of my favorites in the Shainto Clan. Besides being able to use ANY weapon practically useful, he can also be very strong and take plenty of hits. Anyone, beginner or advanced, should use Hongou regularly. It will gain you plenty of wins. Great for Chambara Mode-the best for the Shainto Clan! Tony Umeda: Tony Umeda is essentially the Night Stalker of the Shainto Clan. Too, too, TOO fast. His blade can be quick and can slice easily. Use Tony Umeda in any mode you want, especially in Chambara Mode, since he can take out the first half of the characters quite easily, but it gets pretty harder later on. Overall, like Night Stalker, only advanced players should use him. Highwayman: I guess anyone could say the Highwayman is pretty average, but you can still take out people with him, especially with his twin sword stance. I like how you can have the two swords drawn at once, and how he can easily stab someone with those toys. But again, his speed ain't all that, and he certainly cannot hold his own very well against Hongou or Kannuki. Katze: Shinina! That's Katze quote, meaning "Die!" Katze is extremely effective far away.There's not much tactic on this one. Just go far and unload.... But he sucks in Tournament Mode, due to the small area. Even in 2P Mode Battle, better make sure that you don't fire off like a wild dog. You'll run outta ammo, have to reload, and BAM!!! Someone gonna get ya.. [Weapon Rankings] Here are my rankings for the weapons in Bushido Blade 2. Keep in mind that not all characters can use weapons as good as others, and vice versa. These are the criteria the weapons are rated on: Power: How powerful is that particular weapon Speed: How fast do those attacks come out Control: How much control do you have on your weapon Range: How much range do you have on your weapon All criteria are rated on a 1-6 scale. Also, since there are only six weapons, even though the worst may not seem like the worst, I'd probably agree unless I did a really good analysis of the weapon. I think that all the weapons are cool, but when it came down to ranking them... Weapon Power Speed Control Range Total Naginata 6.0 2.0 2.5 6.0 16.5 Broadsword 4.5 3.5 3.0 4.0 15.0 Katana 4.0 4.0 4.0 3.5 16.5 Nodachi 5.5 3.0 3.0 5.5 17.0 Long Sword 3.5 6.0 4.0 3.0 16.5 Yari 6.0 2.0 2.5 6.0 16.5 Best Weapon Overall: Nodachi Worst Weapon Overall: Broadsword [Individual Weapon Analysis] Here is my personal, in-depth analysis of each weapon for Bushido Blade 2. Probably will be updated in Version 1.1. or Version 1.1. of my FAQ. Naginata: The Naginata is one of the most powerful weapons in Bushido Blade 2, period. It has very good range, very good power, but it kinda fails in terms control. This weapon works especially well for strong characters in Story Mode and Vs. CPU Mode. Overall, a good weapon, but only if you can handle it. Broardsword: This is a pretty good weapon to use, but it got rated kinda mediocre by my ratings compared to other weapons. Don't get me wrong, it's a good weapon to use an all, but it is kinda sluggish. It's good to use for 2P Mode Battle and Tournament Mode, but other than that, don't even bother with this. Katana: Ah yes..the Katana. Perhaps the most used weapon in all Bushido Blade games, there's nothing I can say about this weapon other than it is pretty cool. It has decent range and damage, and just about anyone can use this weapon. It's also usable in all modes adequately. My final verdict: Use it when you wanna, since it can grant a good victory. Nodachi: Tight, tight, TIGHT weapon. The Nodachi is an extremely powerful weapon, not to mention the fact that it's usable efficiently with a lot of the characters in this game. There are many good attacks you can use with it, and the "reflect" attack with Kannuki is just too tight! Use this weapon and try to master it-it'll do ya good. Long Sword: I don't know why, but it seems like the Long Sword has been transformed in the Saber of Bushido Blade 2. It plays almost exactly the same as the Saber of the original Bushido Blade, except that you can't do sidestep flips with it. Overall, practically anyone can use this weapon, and it's a good one to use in most modes. Yari: Really good weapon for the Shainto Clan. The Shainto Clan has a lot of good points in the game, and the Yari is one of them. It has very good range and very good attack power, not to mention the fact that you can easily do spectacular combos with it! It's best used with Hongou-then it's the best combination of a character and weapon you can get to. [Battle Tactics] These are basically strategies on offense and defense, and what kind of things you can do in a heated battle between you and the computer. Or someone that you invited over to beat the seven shades crap out of. Note: In techniques available, I have put a >> to signify that you must combo into that particular button or whatever. Throw Sub-Weapon Press R2 >> Circle quickly. Depending on the character, some can throw sub-weapons, and some cannot, while others can only throw in a certain stance. Gotta experiment. Throw your Opponent Press away from your opponent with the X button also. You will do a throw. Some characters can only do these, but the end results are cool. Gengoro can break your neck! Jump Press R2 >> R1 quickly. Reflect Attacks Sometimes when fighting in Bushido Blade 2, you will see some white sparks. This signifies a reflect attack can occur. Simply press any attack button as soon as this happens, and your character will perform a powerful attack that seems to come out of nowhere. Really, really cool! Guarding Attacks There are basically three ways in this game to guard attacks. A) Simply stand there and hope your weapon in place will block off the attack, B) Press the X button to block an attack made by the Circle button, and C) Press the Circle button to block an attack made by the X button. Now, for the latter two, you may be confused on how to tell when you can tell which button was pressed to attack. Well, a Circle button attack will always be kinda like an overhead attack. Better put, an attack that is coming from the back of the attacker to the front. A X button attack is tell-tale because it's kinda like a stab attack. It can come from the side of the attacker to the opponent. Well, experiment to find out better. I can only show you throw pics of Bushido Blade 2, yet, I don't have a scanner yet, so it's impossible. When you try to guard an attack with another attack, it will show one of three things. A) A blue spark, meaning you used the correct button to block, and you have little recovery time, or B) You got a green spark for using the wrong button to block, and you may get hit since your recovery time is longer than a blue spark appearing, or C) A white spark, meaning a reflect attack may occur. Creating Combos Essentially, it can be said that in Bushido Blade 2 you can create your own combos. Simply cancel attacks like this: Attack >> Attack >> Attack There are more ways to do this, but that's pretty much a simple formula to build combos. Keep in mind that this will not always work with a character, and it varies with the character with the weapon in hand. You may occasionally need to delay attacks also. Offense in Bushido Blade 2 Offense is pretty complex in Bushido Blade 2. First off, you should always start a match by dashing. Dashing is a good way to start off a match since it pumps you up to be offensive minded. Since not that many weapons can hit a good dashing opponent, you can start to look for openings in your opponent's weak defense. Use the formula to create combos when fighting a weak minded opponent. As always, it may not work correctly, but it can get your opponent too ambitious and start to attack wildly. After this, go in for a victory. Appropriately, never use an attack like this: Jump >> Attack For one thing, you'll never be able to attack mid-air. Second, as you land, you'll do an attack, which is predictable and will leave you open afterwards. Only use the above technique unless you are sure the person you are playing sucks at the game. The best technique to win a fast fight is to do this: Dash >> R2 >> X Button >> Circle Button This attack especially works good in Chambara Mode, since you can easily defeat sub-bosses. You're character will need to be in a stance that will allow their attack to hit an opponent on the ground quickly and easily, so you can defeat your opponent easier. This technique usually works always with a Katana, but I haven't really tried it with other weapons. Finally, when you see your opponent to spin a Yari or Naginata around, wait for them to stop. As soon as that occurs, attack. Don't use throws too often, since they can leave you open to attacks. Also, when fighting against Katze and Machine Gun Girl, don't EVER use throws and don't EVER go far range. It's just too easy for them to defeat you these ways. Defense in Bushido Blade 2 Well, reading the offensive part of this FAQ, you will probably think that you will simply need to improve on those aspects and not jump in too quickly, and you will be fine, right? Well, you're really wrong. That's just part of it in Bushido Blade 2. There's also much more to employ. Well, you've got to REALLY learn how to guard efficiently. If you can't, don't bother trying to be an expert in Bushido Blade 2. Got it? It won't work this way since, when you play 2P Mode Battle with gun-totting characters, you will need to learn how to parry their attacks efficiently. Learn to wait for your opponent to get too ambitious and excited. When there's an opponent, do a quick stab attack. For fun, take out an arm to make your opponent even more frustrated. It will keep them from making attacks fast and powerful. Read the offense section and read about what players on offense use against players on defense. This should give you a general idea of what to do. Get it? Got it? Good. [Story Mode Strategies] In Story Mode, you must fight plenty of ninjas and other cronies before fighting a main boss. This is for each area. There are multiple areas before you fight a boss. Along the way, you will also be able to control alternate characters. Well, fighting the ninjas should be too hard. Just dash and do a standard stab attack to take them out. For sub-bosses, it's safe to say that using the technique for Chambara Mode I explained in the Offense in Bushido Blade 2 section will help you greatly. Add in some skills and swordsmanship, and you should be fine. For the Shainto Clan's Boss: As you will notice, each time you hit him, he will get closer to you. Keep doing this until he gets pretty close. Then, do a combo when close-it will hit him as soon as he reapears. For the Meikyo Clain's Boss: This guy is hard. The only weak spot is on his back. Knock him down and then hit his back for an easy win. Last minute Note: Don't die when you get an alternate character! More info on the section Unlocking the Secrets of Bushido Blade 2. [Vs. CPU Mode Strategies] This mode has pretty much has you fighting all the main characters you've earned. It's kinda cool, cuz you getta practice fighting everyone. What's cool though, is, I think it shows how long it took you at the end of the mode. For strategy, there's not much to it. Pick a character, any character, and just, well, fight. Use your standard judgement as well as our strategies on offense and defense. This mode is kinda like Kumite from Dead or Alive, except that I don't think your status carries on from one battle to another. But this is my all-time favorite mode (at least one of my favorites), simply because I get to practice against all my characters I've earned. [2P Mode Battle Strategies] Ah yes, multiplayer. What more does a game like Bushido Blade 2 need. A four-player mode on one T.V.? What a dream. Even though it might require 4 MB RAM Expansion (which, BTW, I'm STILL waiting for,) it'd be ever so cool. Well, until then, a standard 2P Mode Battle will have to do. Play mind games against your opponent. Wait for him to choose a character before choosing yours. Do the same for weapons. Make him/her afraid when the fight starts be running-in, then faking out and running away. This will cause your opponent to attack, which you will then be able to attack and win. Use weapons that suit your opponent's dilemna. A beginner will have lots of trouble against a weapon like, oh, say, the Nodachi or Naginata. Well, for advanced players, a more controllable and combo-heavy weapon like the Katana or Long Sword should do it. Experiment who you play against and see what they hate to figure out what you're going to use. Last, but not least, pick a stage that suits your fighting style. Like one-on-one, deathmatchs? That stage that is only left-right with the fishes at the corners is a great choice to defeat your opponent easily in a tight situation. Or how about a more strategic fight? Long, more drawn out and larger battlefields will do. [Tournament Mode Strategies] There's finally a Team Battle Mode for Bushido Blade, and frankly, it's pretty cool. You can choose characters and select their weapons, and duke it out with your teammates. Choose a character that's powerful for the beginning and last parts of the fight. That way, you can get an offensive start at the beginning, and a strong finish at the end. Or if you're really desperate, having all the strong guys at the end will defintely help you. Don't rely on some of the dashing tactics we've said before- the arena is way too small for those. The longer, more sluggish and powerful weapons are perfect for this mode. You shouldn't worry about who gets which weapon, since the fights will be quick. What also sucks for fast characters like, say, Tatsumi or Night Stalker, is that when you try to be offensive and start running around really quickly can't have too much range to run in, and often get disqualified when they run out of the ring. [First-Person Prespective Strategies] Akin to Tekken 2's "Quake" Mode, Bushido Blade 2 gets this mode, just like in the original. And it lives up to it's name. Actually, this isn't really a mode. It's a selection you make for certain modes that let you play it in a first- person prespective. It's actually harder to play in this mode than in a normal mode's prespective, since you must constantly try to find your opponent to fight. Sometimes, they even get cheap wins against you. But. if you really wanna play in this mode, then you better start practicing with it a lot. For one thing, you'd better get used to the "find-your-opponent" technique. This is done by pressing a X/Circle+Left/Right. This will direct you to your opponent. It's not even harder to time your stabs, so make sure you will get your opponent absolutely when you run up to them and try to stab them. Many times, I'd try to do this, yet as soon as I did stab, it was just inches away from a ninja. Iksui, and then they got me. Also, start getting used to choosing powerful characters will long weapons. Playing as, say, Jou or Tatsumi is nearly suicidle in this mode. Apparently, since it's so hard to directly find your opponent, you'll need to constatly do the "find-your-opponent" technique when you play quick and offensive. With Kannuki, Hongou, or even Suminagashi, you can use the Nodachi, Naginata, or Yari to get lots of reach towards your opponent, make it a lot easier to stab them. I wouldn't play with this option in any mode, personally. Only a POV Mode against my opponent on a Link Cable could be considered. But then again, who has 2 PlayStations, a Link Cable, 2 T.V.s, 2 Bushido Blade copies, 2 controllers, and another friend readily available? Not this kid who's writing the FAQ.. [Chambara Mode Strategies] Note: Chambara Mode is a special mode. For more info, look at Unlocking the Secrets of Bushido Blade 2. Chambara Mode is pretty much the Slash Mode of Bushido Blade, which, though thought to be gone, is back again in Bushido Blade 2 as a secret mode!!! The Chambara Mode technique is the following combination: Dash >> R2 >> X Button >> Circle Button (stance for combo must be so opponent on ground can be hit quickly and easily) For the most part, use the run n' stab technique for the ninjas and people in the middle of boss fights. For the bosses, use the Chambara Mode technique above. Also, for the opponents #81-89, run just so that you're behind them and do a stab technique on them. For this mode, use strong characters. Not Tatsumi, Jou, Mikado, or anyone weak like that. You should also use characters you can actually control. Night Stalker and Tony Umeda, though they may seem to be pretty slick and quick, and may get you far, simply just don't cut it because: A) They are too quick to control, and B) Because they have weak attacks and will have serious trouble against the later foes. My top picks for Chambara Mode: Suminagashi, Hongou, and Kannuki. [Unlocking the Secrets of Bushido Blade 2] Acquire all the Alternate Characters To do this, when you playing Story Mode, do not die while using your Sub-Character. When you finally beat the mode, you will gain a sub-character(s). There are two to gain for each main character-for a total of 18 characters after getting earned. Acquire Chambara Mode Earn all but one Alternate Character, and Chambara Mode should appear before POV Mode on the Mode Select Screen. This is pretty much the Slash Mode of Bushido Blade, but it's called Chambara Mode, and it's way easier!!! (At least in the Japanese Version it's called Chambara Mode). Acquire Katze and Machine Gun Girl To do this, simply beat Chambara Mode in under 15 minutes. You will need to beat it with a Meikyo Character to earn Machine Gun Girl, and Shainto Clan for Katze. Both are only playable in 2P Mode Battle and Tournament Mode. Acquire Freaky Kabuki Guys Beat Chambara Mode without dying. Again, you must beat it with both Shainto Clan and Meikyo Clan to get both of them. Both are only playable in 2P Mode Battle and Tournament Mode. [Japanese Import Menu Translations] For those of you in the U.S. who, well, really wanted the original version of the game and imported the Japanese one, I can tolerate that. Well, being the nice guy I am, I've decided to make a basic translation of all the menus. Enjoy!
