The immediate difference is that Desperation moves are only available in Special Mode. Special moves, properties, and inputs also change in Special Mode depending on the character. These differences or additions are noted as such in the movelist details. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ | 2.2 Launchers And Juggles | +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ This game has four special move properties that will be detailed here in this section. These properties are Launcher, Spin Launcher, Bound Attack, and Wall Crush. Each of these are essential in creating juggles and performing other combos in this game. The maneuvers with these properties are marked as such in the movelist details. Launcher -------- This is an attack that will launch your opponent into the air allowing you to juggle them. You can use a Spin Launcher after a Launcher to hit them back into the air allowing for another juggle opportunity. You can also use a Bound Attack after a Launcher to continue your combo and allow another juggle opportunity. A Wall Crush may also be used after a Launcher to stun the opponent against the wall. You can even use an air throw (if your character has one) after a Launcher. Using another Launcher after an initial Launcher will only strike the opponent. It will not give it the property of allowing you to juggle the opponent again. A Launcher will also not have it's unique property if you use it after a Wall Crush, a Bound Attack, or a Spin Launcher. Below is a flow chart to help understand when a Launcher works and when it doesn't. Launcher -----> Spin Launcher Launcher -----> Bound Attack Launcher -----> Wall Crush Launcher --X--> Launcher Spin Launcher --X--> Launcher Bound Attack --X--> Launcher Wall Crush --X--> Launcher Spin Launcher ------------- Like the Launcher, this launches your opponent into the air allowing you to juggle them. You can even use an air throw (if your character has one) after a Spin Launcher. It is worth noting that only Riki and Rochishin CANNOT be Spin Launched. Instead, moves that are labeled Spin Launchers will act as regular Launchers to them. All other characters are pray to Spin Launchers. The difference between a Spin Launcher and a regular Launcher is that a Spin Launcher can be used after a Wall Crush, a Bound Attack, or a regular Launcher. Using another Spin Launcher after a regular Launcher or a Spin Launcher will strike the opponent, but not produce the properties of allowing you to juggle the opponent again. Below is a flow chart to help understand when a Spin Launcher works and when it doesn't. Spin Launcher -----> Bound Attack Spin Launcher -----> Wall Crush Launcher -----> Spin Launcher Bound Attack -----> Spin Launcher Wall Crush -----> Spin Launcher Spin Launcher --X--> Launcher Spin Launcher --X--> Spin Launcher Bound Attack ------------ A Bound Attack is a maneuver that hits the opponent to the floor so hard they bounce back into the air allowing for you to juggle them. You can even use an air throw (if your character has one) after a Bound Attack. You can use a Spin Launcher or a Wall Crush after a Bound Attack. You can also use a Bound Attack after any launcher (Launcher or Spin Launcher). You cannot use a Bound Attack after a Wall Crush. It will only hit the opponent but not produce the same properties that allow you to juggle the opponent after. This also occurs if you try to use another Bound Attack after an initial Bound Attack. Finally, a Launcher will not produce juggle properties if used after a Bound Attack. Below is a flow chart to help understand when a Bound Attack works and when it doesn't. Bound Attack -----> Spin Launcher Bound Attack -----> Wall Crush Launcher -----> Bound Attack Spin Launcher -----> Bound Attack Bound Attack --X--> Launcher Bound Attack --X--> Bound Attack Wall Crush --X--> Bound Attack Wall Crush ---------- A Wall Crush is a maneuver that sends the opponent flying across the screen. If the opponent comes in contact with the corner of the stage they will splat against it and remain stuck for a short amount of time. The opponent will be in a stunned state and can be comboed. Surprisingly, you can use an air throw (if your character has one) after an opponent is crushed against the corner of the stage. The only thing that allows you to launch the opponent again for a juggle after a Wall Crush is a Spin Launcher. You can link a Wall Crush from a Launcher, a Spin Launcher, and a Bound Attack. Below is a flow chart to help understand when a Wall Crush works and when it doesn't. Wall Crush -----> Spin Launcher Launcher -----> Wall Crush Spin Launcher -----> Wall Crush Bound Attack -----> Wall Crush Wall Crush --X--> Launcher Wall Crush --X--> Bound Attack Wall Crush --X--> Wall Crush ++++++++++++++++++++ | 2.3 Weapon Gauge | ++++++++++++++++++++ The Weapon Gauge is the sword shaped gauge at the bottom of the screen. This meter will decrease if you block an opponent's weapon based attack. Block too many of these and your weapon gauge will completely deplete. Once empty your weapon will be destroyed and you will be dizzied. You will not have your weapon for the rest of the match. Only two characters are able to get their "weapons" back during the match. These two characters are Kousonsyou and Gen Shouji. In their case, the meter will slowly increase. Once full, they will be given back use of their weapon. Another interesting fact is that your Weapon Gauge will decrease very slightly if your opponent blocks one of your weapon based attacks. The Weapon Gauge can also be completely emptied if you throw your weapon (HP+HK). If the opponent is hit with the weapon they will be dizzied. Kousonsyou and Gen Shouji are again the exception to this rule as they cannot throw their weapon. It is also worth noting that Chougai does not have a Weapon Gauge. =============================================================================== 3.

===============================================================================
4. Codes, Misc., and Easter Eggs
===============================================================================

Use Chougai
-----------
  Enter Special Mode and then go the 2P Battle.  Chougai is available for
selection here.

Unlock Mizoguchi
----------------
  At the title screen press Up, Down, Left, Right, Down, Up, Right, Left, L2
button, R2 button.  You will hear Mizoguchi shout indicating the code was
entered correctly.  Mizoguchi can only be used in Special Mode.

Challenge Huyan Zhuo
--------------------
  Remain undefeated throughout the game up until the final boss fight.  Huyan
Zhuo will challenge you.  He can only be hurt using special moves.  If the 
timer reaches 20 he will automatically execute an attack that kills you in one
hit.


Beginner Mode
-------------
  Go to Game Start.  At the character select screen hold down L2 and R2 and 
select your character.


Changing Character's Skin Tone
------------------------------
  When selecting your character hold down the button you are using to pick 
their costume color.  While holding this button move the joystick either to 
the right or to the left.  While continuing to hold the direction on the 
joystick release the button you were holding.  You will now have a different 
skin tone for the match.


Hidden Character Color
----------------------
  If the opponent chooses a character with LK and you select the same character
after them with LK you will get a special Gold costume.  Note that Kousonsyou's
special Gold costume is accessed by selecting him with LP after the opponent
selected him with LP. Chougai and Mizoguchi's methods are also different in 
that the opponent needs to select them with Start and you choose your mirror
match with Start as well.


Dizzy icons
-----------
  Every character in the game has a unique dizzy icon above their heads.  These
are listed below.

Shishin        - Blue Dragons
Rinchuu        - Jaguars
Kosanjyou      - Suns and Moons
Taisou         - Doves
Riki           - Sake Gourds
Rochishin      - Cherry Blossoms
Kousonsyou     - Turtles
Bushou         - Tigers
Gen Shouji     - Fish
Gen Shougo     - Frogs
Gen Shoushichi - Ducks
Chougai        - Person Holding Pink Snake?
Mizoguchi      - Octopuses

Sprite Differences
------------------
  An odd but unique feature in this game is that mirror matches feature the
two characters having different idle stances.  A nice attention to detail.

5. Conclusion

5.1  What's Missing/Needed
-Cleanup and corrections
-Missing moves?

****************************************************************************
* NEED YOUR HELP.  Mizoguchi's Desperation Move seems to have a very odd   *

* overstated the motion or have something missing from the motion.  If     *
* anyone can help find the correct motion for this Desperation please let  *
