INTRODUCTION ======================================================================== Hi, welcome to my KoF '03 FAQ. If you have any comments or if you'd like to contribute anything, feel free to reach me at . Just please don't ask me about emulators, I don't know anything about using them. Please don't use any part of this FAQ without getting permission first. These things do take a lot of work to write, after all. I hate bringing this sort of thing up, but it only takes a second to ask. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ REVISION HISTORY ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Version 0.3 (April 9, 2004) - Added in the official move names for the bosses, as well as the usual minor additions and corrections. Some great contributions this time around, including a bunch from Tel (he seems to have rewritten about half the FAQ by now :) I also added a section on "damage scaling" after a contributor wrote in with a lot of info. on this topic. Version 0.2 (February 22, 2004) - Rewrote and "condensed" the notes, so as to not take up so much space. This resulted in a lot of additions and corrections. Also added a list of super cancels for each character, expanded the Gameplay Notes section, and fixed some translations for Malin. Finally, some great contributions were added, as well as a slew of notes from Tel that didn't make it into v0.1 in time. Version 0.1 (February 11, 2004) - The first release. Moveslists and other basic info. completed. Some notes cleanup is needed for the next release, though (I can't tell if I like the numbering format or not). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ SPECIAL THANKS ------------------------------------------------------------------------ This FAQ would have not been possible without help from the following: kenmastersx - For the invincibility on Leona's (D) Gravity Spark, Gato moving forward on the (D) Tatsu Kiba, and the difference between Terry's Power Geyser strengths.

It knocks an enemy down while sending them across the screen. - You have to use the same button to escape from a normal throw that your opponent used (i.e. b / f + C will break you out of a b / f + C throw). - You can now roll while crouching. - Another way to perform the Low Big Jump is to immediately hold in a downward direction after tapping "db~df, lightly tap ub~uf." - The Down Evade makes you land on your feet when knocked down. - After a taunt begins, you can cancel it with a movement or action. - The Guard Cancel moves and Change Attack cost one level to use. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ CHANGES FROM KOF '02 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ - There are no more SDMs or HSDMs. Instead, there are L^ moves, or the Leader DMs. The first character you choose is your lead character (the order you put them later on doesn't matter, even though the screen says "[A]...Leader" on it). That leader character is the only one who can use their L^ move, and it costs 2 levels to use. - You can tell who your leader is, since they will have a blue life gauge. - There is no more Quick Emergency Evade (AB when making an attack). - There are no more ground or mid-air Blow Away Attacks (although some characters now have them as command attacks). - Characters will get dizzied if they take too many hits. - You can now roll or Guard Cancel roll while crouching. - Super cancels now cost one level to use, as in KOF '01. Remember that this applies to SC'ing from a special move into a D^ or L^ move, and not a normal or command attack. - Characters now have "chip death" animations, for when they are killed via block damage. - There are no more moves that automatically drop an opponent's guard. - There are no more "surefire juggles" (moves that juggle in non-juggle situation). - I noticed it's possible to hit an opponent twice in air if the first hit connects (i.e. K's standing A x2 vs. Gato's Fuuga). This even works against a normal jump-in. Whether this is a change to the juggle system or is just easier to do in this KoF, I don't know. - And of course (if you couldn't tell), the game has a tag system. ======================================================================== 3. TEAM MOVELISTS ======================================================================== Teams are listed in the same order that they are on the Team Select Screen. Moves are listed in this order: basic throws, command attacks, special moves, then D^ and L^ moves. Afterwards is a cancelable attack chart, and then a SC chart. A super cancel with a "n/" listed before it requires no extra Power levels to use (see Section 4 for details). Some moves are SC'able only under certain circumstances, so please see their entry in the notes section for details. Speaking of, there are some notes for each character at the very end. Notes correspond to the number written to the far right of each move. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ASH CRIMSON [ Hero Team ] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ b / f + C / D when near Brumaire 1 f + A Messidor 2 b + B Floreal 3 b + D Prarial 4 Charge b,f + P Ventose 5 Charge d,u + K Nivose 6 hcf + C when near Vendemiaire 7 qcf,qcf + P D^ Thermidor 8 qcf,qcf + K D^ Pluviose 9 Tap A,B,C,D quickly L^ Sans-Culottes 10 Cancels A B C D ----------------------------------------- stand near C C C C stand far - - - - crouching Cr Cr C - Super Cancels (see notes for details) -------------------------------------------------------------- n/Messidor Nivose (1st) Vendemiaire (3rd) 1 Unblockable. (D) switches sides with your enemy. 1 Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move. 2 Overhead, unless canceled into (which makes it SC'able and faster). 2 However, it will only combo from an A or B attack. 3 Can link into Pluviose, since that move comes out so quickly. 4 Has a short range, so you will (D) throw instead if not careful. 5 You can move about freely after the (A) Ventose, as it is very slow. 5 (C) is created in two "waves", like Geese's Double Reppuu Ken. It can hit twice from up close, but you can block or move out of the way of the 2nd wave (once fired, the projectile hits twice and will actually combo). 5 The first wave can also destroy projectiles, without affecting the outcome of the projectile (you will still get the 2-hit version). This move can pass through projectiles. 5 The (C) Ventose can in fact be reflected, but this is difficult, because it moves so fast. What's more, even if reflected, the projectile may cancel itself out, like King's Double Venom Strike (since it is technically two fireballs layered together). Another possibility is that the first fireball hits you, but you manage to reflect the second one. The Bai Gaeshi can absorb/respond to this move normally, though. 6 1st hit is SC'able. 7 1st hit is unblockable. Has no miss animation. Can juggle afterwards. 3rd hit is SC'able. 7 Not all the hits will combo, in some situations (i.e, Chang is running into the corner, and you attempt stand C > hcf + C). It's usually the 3rd hit that misses, since it has a short range. 8 Has invincibility upon start-up, when Ash is creating the ball. The Thermidor travels slowly enough for you to walk around afterwards, and does plenty of chip damage. You can use a Thermidor while a Ventose is on-screen, but not the other way around. 8 The Thermidor cannot be reflected, and can negate and pass through projectiles and even some D^ projectiles. What's really cool is that the Bai Gaeshi can absorb this move, although if you use the (C) version, Yamazaki will not "respond" with a projectile. 9 -- 10 The "activation" glow of this move can knock down a foe. Attacks will also pass through you during the activation phase. 10 The surest way to perform this move is to complete it either as a cancelable attack hits or is blocked, or as the recovery of said attack ends, so that you have returned to a neutral state as you are pressing the final button (not once you are pressing the final button, as this will just result in a normal attack). This means you have to do the motion very quickly (if attempting it during a move that hits or recovers quickly), or somewhat slowly (if attempting it during a move that takes a while to come out or recover from). This can be used with any attack, from normal attacks to command moves or specials or supers. 10 When used, you glow for five counts. During this time, there is no charge time for your charge moves (i.e. you can just input b,f + P or d,u + K). This allows you to have multiple Ventoses on screen. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ DUO LON [ Hero Team ] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ b / f + C / D when near Suishu: Shoukou 1 uf when near a wall in air Sankaku Tobi 2 jump uf + B,D Hika Tenshi 3 df + D Fuuka Tenshi 4 _press D Raika Tenshi 5 qcf + P (x3) Jaki Juuryuu 6 _f + K from qcf + P (x1) Onpei Ryuujin Ha 7 _qcb + P Shiryou Hassei Kin 8 qcf + K Himou Kyaku 9 qcb + K Genma Hishou Keikou 10 f,d,df + K Genmu Kyaku: Naiga 11 b,d,db + K Genmu Kyaku: Gaiga 12 hcb,f + P when near Suishu: Makyakuho 13 _qcb + P Suishu: Ransaiki 14 qcb,hcf + P D^ Hiden: Genmu Juon Shikon 15 hcb,hcb + P D^ Hiden: Genmu Onryou Heki 16 Tap A,C,B,D quickly L^ Ougi: Tajuu Genmu Ankei 17 Cancels A B C D ----------------------------------------- stand near Cr C C C stand far -r - - - crouching Cr Cr C S Super Cancels (see notes for details) -------------------------------------------------------------- Jaki Juuryuu (3rd) Shiryou Hassei Kin 1 Unblockable. (D) switches sides with your enemy. 1 Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move. 2 -- 3 Cannot use during a low or high jump. 4 Hits low. 5 Counter Wire (if Fuuka Tenshi didn't hit, obviously). Will combo from Fuuka Tenshi. 6 You can perform all three inputs, even if one of them misses. In fact, you can hit with only the 1st and 3rd hits for a 2-hit combo. 6 1st input can cancel into Himou Kyaku. 3rd input can cancel into Himou Kyaku, Genmu Kyaku, or Genma Hishou Kyaku. It's a good thing, since the Himou Kyaku is really the only way to juggle off the third input without super canceling. 6 3rd input is SC'able, and will juggle with Genmu Onryou Heki or (A) Genmu Juon Shikon in the corner. In the open, only the (C) Genmu Juon Shikon will connect. 7 Can cancel into even if the 1st Jaki Juryuu is blocked. Can be canceled into Fuuka Tenshi, Himou Kyaku, or Genmu Kyaku. 8 You must perform this move after the knee strike hits, and not as it hits (as you usually would). SC'able. You can combo after this move if you're fast enough (e.g. into c A > Jaki Juuryuu). 9 You can be hit while teleporting (D) moves you further than (B). You will "re-warp" if you move near your opponent, even if this occurs at the end of the initial warp. 9 It seems like the "re-warp" can be canceled into itself rapidly. 10 Overhead. (D) moves you further than (B). Both versions hit twice, but (D) only does this vs. tall opponents. Only the 2nd hit will knock down an enemy. 10 Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move. 10 You are invincible once you turn into a skeleton and are crumbling downward, although you can be thrown at any point while falling apart. 11 Can juggle afterwards. (D) strikes further ahead than (B). 12 Has slightly more range than the corresponding strength Naiga. 12 If your enemy is near, this move hits "inward" instead of outward, knocking your enemy towards you. 13 Unblockable. Does no damage. Leaves opponent open to attack. 14 As above, but switches sides with your enemy in mid-grab. 15 Hits twice from up close. (C) version goes much faster than (A). 15 Negates projectiles (but not D^ projectiles). 16 Only does block damage at the end, and for less than you'd think. 16 Negates normal and D^ projectiles. Like Terry's Power Stream, it seems like nothing will hit Duo Lon out of this move. 17 The "activation" glow of this move can knock down a foe. Attacks will also pass through you during the activation phase. 17 The surest way to perform this move is to complete it either as a cancelable attack hits or is blocked, or as the recovery of said attack ends, so that you have returned to a neutral state as you are pressing the final button (not once you are pressing the final button, as this will just result in a normal attack). This means you have to do the motion very quickly (if attempting it during a move that hits or recovers quickly), or somewhat slowly (if attempting it during a move that takes a while to come out or recover from). This can be used with any attack, from normal attacks to command moves or specials or supers. 17 When used, you glow for five counts. During this time, you are followed by a duplicate that imitates your moves and can hit your opponent. It can't imitate D^ moves, though, and it's imitation feature seems pretty dodgy (i.e. the Jaki Juuryuu won't get full hits, etc.) 17 Also during this move, your attacks will not knock an opponent away. This sets up for some unique combo situations (and an easy infinite--standing or crouching A repeatedly). 17 It also has the odd effect of causing moves that knock an opponent aside to simply drop them to the floor (such as the Fuuka Tenshi, Suishu: Shoukou, or Genmu Onryou Heki). It also makes the Genmu Kyaku knock an opponent straight up, instead of at an angle. ** Look at Duo Lon's feet. Notice anything odd? :) ** For the confused, here is a quick list of Duo Lon's Jaki Juuryuu chains: 1st input > 2nd input > 3rd input > 4th input ------------------------------------------------------------- qcf + P > qcf + K > --------- > --------- qcf + P > f + K > qcf + K > --------- qcf + P > f + K > f,d,df + K > --------- qcf + P > f + K > b,d,db + K > --------- qcf + P > f + K > df + D > press D qcf + P > f + K > qcb + P > supercancel qcf + P > qcf + P > qcf + P > qcf + K qcf + P > qcf + P > qcf + P > qcb + K qcf + P > qcf + P > qcf + P > f,d,df + K qcf + P > qcf + P > qcf + P > b,d,db + K qcf + P > qcf + P > qcf + P > supercancel ** As you can see, you have a lot of options to choose from ;) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ SHEN WOO [ Hero Team ] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ b / f + C / D when near Kyakuten Zuchi 1 f + B Fusen Kyaku 2 f + hold D Tenren no Kamae 3 f + D Tenren Shuu 3 qcf + P (can hold) Gekiken 4 _K while holding P Cancel 5 qcb + A Fukuko Geki 6 _qcf + A Kouryuu Geki 7 hcb,f + C when near Saikou Hougeki 8 qcf,qcf + P D^ Zetsu!

(D) switches sides with your enemy. 1 Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move. 2 Overhead, unless canceled into (which makes it cancelable). 3 Knockdown. Shen spins without attacking if the button is held. 4 (A) does not knock down, but is SC'able. If delayed for even a little bit, it will knock down, but is no longer SC'able. However, you can juggle an opponent afterwards in this case, even out in the open (Kohyou Rengeki works well). 4 (C) does not not knock down, but is SC'able until Shen completes the yell. After that, it becomes a knockdown attack, but is not SC'able. However, you can juggle an opponent afterwards, even out in the open (again, try following with Kohyou Rengeki). 4 If delayed until a while after the yell, the (C) Gekiken becomes an unblockable attack that knocks the enemy away, although you can't juggle them. 4 In either case, delaying the move increases the damage a little. 5 You can press K to cancel the Gekiken while it is being delayed. 6 -- 7 Can cancel into this move before the Fukuko Geki hits. 8 Unblockable. Leaves foe open to attack. Miss animation reflects projectiles, oddly enough. 9 Counter Wire. (A) gives immunity to mid- and low-level attacks. (C) gives immunity for high attacks. 9 Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move. 10 Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move. 11 The "activation" glow of this move can knock down a foe. 11 The surest way to perform this move is to complete it either as a cancelable attack hits or is blocked, or as the recovery of said attack ends, so that you have returned to a neutral state as you are pressing the final button (not once you are pressing the final button, as this will just result in a normal attack). This means you have to do the motion very quickly (if attempting it during a move that hits or recovers quickly), or somewhat slowly (if attempting it during a move that takes a while to come out or recover from). This can be used with any attack, from normal attacks to command moves or specials or supers. 11 When used, you glow for 8 counts. During this time, your attack power increases. Before this move begins, there is a delay as Shen messes with his gloves. However, if you combo into this move, he will instantly "activate" it. ** Shen can follow his close standing C with a far standing B. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ TERRY BOGARD [ Garou Team ] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ b / f + C / D when near Buster Throw 1 df + C Rising Upper 2 df + D Backspin Kick 3 f + C from close standing C Combination Blow 4 qcb + P Burn Knuckle 5 qcb + K Crack Shoot 6 qcf + P Power Wave 7 hcf + K Power Charge 8 _f,f + same button (x2) Tsuika Nyuuryoku 9 f,d,df + K Power Dunk 10 _press AB after 1st hit Breaking 11 _qcb + B Break Shoot 12 qcb,db,f + P D^ Power Geyser 13 qcf,qcf + K D^ Buster Wolf 14 qcb,hcf + AC L^ Power Stream 15 Cancels A B C D ----------------------------------------- stand near Cr - C C/C stand far cr - - - crouching Cr C C c Super Cancels (see notes for details) -------------------------------------------------------------- Tsuika Nyuuryoku (1st) 1 Unblockable. (D) switches sides with your enemy. 1 Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move. 2 Cancelable. Has less range than before. 3 Knockdown, unless canceled into (which makes it cancelable and faster). 4 Cancelable on 2nd hit. 5 Knockdown. 6 Overhead. (D) can hit from up close before overhead hit, though. The (D) version will completely miss some crouching foes. 7 -- 8 -- 9 1st input (f,f + K) is SC'able, though seemingly not into the Power Stream. 2nd input knocks down. 3rd input is a Counter Wire if the previous hits missed. You can do the full three inputs even if the first one is hit or blocked. 9 You cannot Down Evade as you land from the 2nd input. 10 (B) button can cross-up, but your enemy can still block backward to defend against the last hit. 10 You cannot Down Evade as you land from this move, unless Terry used the Breaking. 11 Only works if 1st hit connects and doesn't miss or get blocked. Terry dashes forward a little, setting up an easy juggle situation. 12 For some reason the (B) Crack Shoot cancels directly from #11. 13 The (C) version has start-up invicibility, but is slower than the (A) version. If hit out of this move, Terry can juggle his foe if the geyser still hit his opponent. 13 Can negate projectiles (even D^ moves and the Thermidor). Terry now does the "Garou" version instead of the old KOF version. 14 Won't finish if it is blocked. 15 The official command works, but it seems that (qcb,db,f + AC) works as well. The "dome" created in the start can juggle an opponent for the remaining hits. This move can negate practically any projectile and can outhit most attacks; maybe Mukai's L^ move would beat it? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ JOE HIGASHI [ Garou Team ] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ b / f + C / D when near Hiza Jigoku 1 f + B Low Kick 2 df + B Sliding 3 hcf + P Hurricane Upper 4 hcf + K Slash Kick 5 f,d,df + K Tiger Kick 6 qcb + K Ougon no Kakato 7 Tap P rapidly Bakuretsu Ken 8 _qcf + A Bakuretsu Elbow 9 _qcf + C Bakuretsu Finish 10 qcf,qcf + P D^ Screw Upper 11 qcf,hcb + P D^ Bakuretsu Hurricane Tiger Kakato 12 qcb,qcb + AC L^ Shijou Saikyou no Bakuretsu Straight 13 Cancels A B C D ----------------------------------------- stand near C C C C stand far -r C - - crouching Cr -r C c Super Cancels (see notes for details) -------------------------------------------------------------- Tiger Kick (1st) Bakuretsu Elbow 1 Unblockable. (D) switches sides with your enemy. 2 Cancelable. 3 Hits low. Travels further than before. 4 Will miss characters who are right next to Joe. 4 (C) has a further range and fires two hurricanes instead of one. The 2nd hurricane will knock down. However, this move will not combo, and it's possible to block after the 1st hurricane in some situations (but never if you're in the corner). 5 Knockdown. 6 1st hit is SC'able. 7 Last hit of (D) knocks down. 7 You can juggle your opponent after this move if they are hit in mid-air, and you land first. Works best in the corner. 8 -- 9 Overhead. SC'able. 10 Hits low. 11 The intial hurricane will miss if Joe's enemy is near him. If hit out of this first hurricane, the move won't continue. 11 If this move connects, but you don't get the full 7 hits, you can juggle a falling opponent. 12 Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move. 13 Unblockable. Has autoguard on Joe's body; against jumping, high, and mid-level attacks. The autoguard lasts until Joe strikes and starts up even before the L^ "activation" flash occurs. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ GRIFFON MASK ("Tizoc" if language is set to English) [ Garou Team ] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ b / f + C / D * Griffon Tower 1 d + AB Joudan Yoke Kougeki 2 d + CD Gridro Super Kick 3 qcb + K * Olympus Over 4 f,d,df + P Active Tupon 5 b,d,db + P * Poseidon Wave 6 hcb + P when near Justice Hurricane 7 hcf + B when near Hercule(s) Throw 8 qcf + A when near in air Icarus Crash 9 df,df + C from any * move Griffall 10 qcf,qcf + K D^ Dadaleus Attack 11 hcb,hcb + P when near D^ Big Fall Griffon 12 hcb,hcb + AC when near L^ Big Fall Griffon 13 Cancels A B C D ----------------------------------------- stand near Cr - c - stand far Cr C c - crouching C - - - jumping c c c c Super Cancels (see notes for details) -------------------------------------------------------------- n/Joudan Yoke Kougeki (2nd/3rd) Poseidon Wave 1 Unblockable. (C) switches sides with your enemy. 2 Will dodge high attacks. 2nd-3rd hit is SC'able. Dadaleus Attack can combo, and in the corner, the first and last hits will even juggle if you SC'd from the 3rd hit of the Joudan Yoke Kougeki. 2 So obviously, you must use db / df + AB to roll while crouching. 3 Will dodge low attacks for the moment you leave the ground (though you can be hit before you jump). Does a lot of GC damage. 4 Overhead. (D) makes you backstep first. 4 Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move. 5 Unblockable. (C) moves you further than (A) does. 5 Only grabs standing opponents, and not those who are crouching or are in mid-air. 6 SC'able. (C) makes you backstep first. 6 You cannot Down Evade as you land from the (C) version. 7 Unblockable. 8 Unblockable. Does little damage and can't be comboed into, but sets opponent up for a juggle as they bounce off the wall. 9 Unblockable. Only grabs mid-air foes. Can use during a backstep. 10 A follow-up to the Griffon Tower, Olympus Over, Poseidon Wave, or a crouching D that knocks down. Can hit an opponent on the floor. 10 Must be done early to hit, although you can do it right after the Griffon Tower connects, meaning you don't reverse the input. 11 1st hit is an overhead attack. Has startup invincibility. 12 Unblockable. Has limited startup invincibility. 13 Unblockable. Has limited startup invincibility. ** Griffon's forward walk is faster than his forward run. ** You can always hold d, then press AB or CD for the respective move. ** None of Griffon's throws can be recovered from using the Down Evade. ** During the beta test, Griffon was said to have an alternate taunt said to be (b + Start). However, this doesn't seem to work. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ RYO SAKAZAKI [ Kyokugen Team ] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ b / f + C / D when near Tomoe Nage 1 f + A Hyouchuu Wari 2 f + B Joudan Uke 3 df + B Gedan Uke 4 qcf + P Ko'ou Ken 5 qcf + K Mouko Raijin Setsu 6 qcb + P Kohou Shippuu Ken 7 hcb + K Hien Shippuu Kyaku 8 f,b,f + P Zanretsu Ken 9 f,d,df + P Kohou 10 f,hcf + P D^ Haou Shoukou Ken 11 qcf,hcb + P D^ Ryuuko Ranbu 12 qcf,qcf + AC L^ Tenchi Haou Ken 13 Cancels A B C D ----------------------------------------- stand near Cr C C C stand far - - - - crouching Cr -r C C Super Cancels (see notes for details) -------------------------------------------------------------- Kohou Shippuu Ken (1st-2nd) (A) Kohou (C) Kohou (1st) 1 Unblockable.

Becomes cancelable if autoguard is triggered. 4 Same as Joudan Uke, but only autoguards mid- and low-level attacks. 5 Knockdown. Negates projectiles. 6 Overhead and knockdown attack. 6 Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move. 7 SC'able on either hit. (A) has more invincibility when it comes to dodging attacks at the beginning. 7 (C) has autoguard on body when Ryo has fully turned away, vs. jumping, high, and mid-level attacks. A knockdown attack. 8 Knockdown. 9 Has autoguard on Ryo's reared fist (before he attacks) vs. high- and mid-level attacks. 9 Either version ends differently, but it seems to have no tactical difference. Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move. 10 (A) is SC'able. (C) is SC'able on 1st hit only. 11 Negates and passes through normal projectiles. Faster than before, sort of like the old SDM version. 12 (C) makes you leap further forward than (A). Ryo is immune to attacks at the start of the lunge, but not for the whole distance. 13 Dizzies a hit opponent, but cannot re-dizzy twice in a row. 13 Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move. ** Ryo can follow a crouching B with a standing or crouching C. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ROBERT GARCIA [ Kyokugen Team ] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ b / f + C / D when near Kubikiri Nage 1 b / f + B Ryuu Hanshuu 2 b + A Uraken 3 f + A Kouryuu Koukyaku Geri 4 qcf + P Ryuugeki Ken 5 qcb + K (x4) Hien Senpuu Kyaku 6 qcb + K in air Hien Ryuujin Kyaku 7 hcf + K when near Kyokugen-ryuu Renbu Kyaku 8 f,d,df + K Ryuu Zanshou 9 f,b,f + K Gen'ei Kyaku 10 f,hcf + P (can hold) D^ Haou Shoukou Ken 11 qcf,hcb + P D^ Ryuuko Ranbu 12 qcb,qcb + B in air L^ Jiryuu Haisen Kyaku 13 qcb,qcb + D in air L^ Hiryuu Choushuu Kyaku 14 Cancels A B C D ----------------------------------------- stand near Cr C C C/- stand far -r - - - crouching Cr Cr C C jumping - - c c Super Cancels (see notes for details) -------------------------------------------------------------- (B) Hien Senpuu Kyaku (2nd-3rd) (B) Ryuu Zanshou (D) Ryuu Zanshou (1st) 1 Unblockable. (D) switches sides with your enemy. 1 Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move. 2 Becomes cancelable if canceled into. 3 Can juggle afterwards, unless canceled into (which makes the move cancelable). 4 Overhead, unless canceled into (which makes it cancelable into any mid-air move). 4 It used to be that you could link this move into a Ryuuga, but none of Robert's moves are fast enough to link anymore. 5 Even though the (D) version is fired low to the ground, either version can be blocked high and will miss from up close. The (D) version also comes out slower than the (B) version. 6 (B) is SC'able into Hiryuu Choushuu Kyaku on the 2nd or 3rd input. 7 (B) has a steeper descent than (D) does. Can use during a backstep. 8 1st hit is unblockable. Can juggle afterwards. This move is now performed slowly, and Robert has a slower recovery. Also, your opponent is knocked further away. This makes the timing for juggles difficult, and limits your options when not in the corner. 8 The best follow-ups when in the open seem to be a standing (D), a dash into either strength Ryuu Zanshou, or else a Hiryuu Choushuu Kyaku performed just off the ground (qcb,qcb,ub + D). Not much else will connect, though a (D) Ryuu Zanshou can combo if your timing is good (you might as well just dash to ensure that it hits). 8 It might seem like (hcf + K > f,f > f,d,df + B > qcb,qcb + D) would work, but the Hiryuu Choushuu Kyaku will miss. Too bad ;( 9 (B) is pretty much vertical, while (D) carries you forward slightly. 9 (B) is SC'able into either L^ move. If blocked, the 2nd or 3rd hit are SC'able. On a counter hit, the 2nd hit is SC'able. 9 (D) is SC'able on the 1st hit, but only into Ryuuko Ranbu. 10 Comes out very quickly, and seems to recover faster, too. 11 Negates and passes through normal projectiles. Delaying it seems to have no effect. If you cancel into this move (say, from a standing C), it combos, but the damage is greatly reduced. 12 (C) makes you leap further than (A) does, although it is slower and only (A) will combo from an attack (such as a standing C). 12 Unlike Ryo, you can't pass through attacks while lunging forward. 13 A sort of super Hien Ryuujin Kyaku. There is a recovery period after it hits, like Ryo's Tenchi Haou Ken. 13 Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move. 14 An upward flying kick. Has no recovery period, unlike (B) version. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ YURI SAKAZAKI [ Kyokugen Team ] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ b / f + C / D when near Silent Nage 1 a-u + C / D when near in air Izuna Otoshi 2 b + B in air Yuri Ori 3 f + A En Yoku 4 f + B Shiyoku 5 df + D Shouyoku 6 qcf + P Ko'ou Ken 7 _hold same button Haou Shoukou Ken 8 qcf + K in air Raiou Ken 9 qcb + P Saifa 10 hcb + K Hyakuretsu Binta 11 f,d,df + P Kuuga (Yuri Chou Upper) 12 f,d,df + C (x2) Ura Kuuga (Double Yuri Chou Upper) 13 qcf,hcb + K D^ Hien Hou'ou Kyaku 14 qcf,qcf + K D^ Mekki Zan Kuuga (Shin!

(C) switches sides with your enemy. 1 Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move. 2 Unblockable. Will only hit opponents in mid-air. 2 Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move. 3 A parody of Iori's Yuri Ori. Can be used to start a cross-up combo when you jump over your opponent. You can use this move during a backstep to sail back even further, but you have to
     do the motion once you're actually in air.
 4   Overhead, unless canceled into.
 5   Cancelable.  Hits low.
 6   Cancelable.  Can juggle afterwards (try Shin! Chou Upper when
     in the corner).
 7   Knockdown.
 8   Knockdown.
 9   Faster than before.  (D) has more range than (B) does.  Can hit
     someone lying on the ground.
 9   You cannot perform this move as (qcf,uf + K), or use it during
     a backstep.
 10  Knockdown.  There is a delay before the (C) version.  Either
     version reflects projectiles.
 11  Unblockable.
 12  (C) is SC'able on the 1st hit.
 13  SC'able on either hit, but only into Shin! Chou Upper.  It seems
     as if the 2nd hit is only SC'able if the first Kuuga hits.
 14  --
 15  A parody of Ryu's Shin Shouryuu Ken.  If the first hit doesn't
     connect deeply enough, Yuri does a multi-hit uppercut instead of
     the normal 3-hit version.
 16  A parody of Ryu's Denjin Hadou Ken.  Unblockable.  Charging the
     move increases the hits and damage, and makes it automatically
     dizzy a hit foe.  You don't need to fully charge it in order to
     get this effect.  Negates and passes through normal projectiles,
     but will be negated by other D^ projectiles.  Does low damage.
 16  If you hit a mid-air opponent with this move, they will fall
     straight up.  I haven't been able to juggle off of this, but it
     is an easy set up for a Raiou Ken ground hit (i.e. (C) Yuri
     Chou Upper > super cancel Denjin HSK > ground hit Raiou Ken).
 17  While delaying this move, you can shake the joystick rapidy
     reduce the amount of time it takes to charge it to full.

 1   Unblockable.  (C) switches sides with your enemy.
 1   Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 2   Overhead, unless canceled into (which makes it SC'able on either
     hit).
 3   Is now the "descending" style Hishou Kyaku, but is a little slower
     than the old "single hit" version.
 4   (B) is SC'able, but only into the Hou'ou Kyaku.  (D) knocks down.
     Both versions hit low.
 4   Kim retains an old bug from previous games; if you try to super
     cancel the (B) Haki Kyaku into the Hou'ou Kyaku without enough
     levels to do so, Kim simply cancels out of the Haki Kyaku without
     doing anything.  This allows you to combo your opponent before
     they recover from the Haki Kyaku hit.
 5   (B) is SC'able and combos into any D^ or L^ move.
 6   --
 7   Overhead on either hit.  2nd hit is SC'able.
 8   2nd hit is SC'able.  If done in the corner, you can SC into the
     Hou'ou Kyaku or Hiden Hou'ou Kyaku for an easy juggle.
 9   The 2nd input can be canceled into the 3rd input either immediately
     or after a moment, giving you slightly more range.  However, if you
     wait too long, you can't cancel into the last hit.  The 3rd input
     is an overhead attack.
 9   This series is slower than before, and Kim is closer to the ground
     when performing it.
 10  1st hit hits low and is SC'able.  2nd hit of (D) version is an
     overhead.  This move is slower now, and has more recovery time.
 10  The 2nd hit of the (D) version won't always combo with the
     previous hit, meaning you can roll or otherwise avoid it.
 10  Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 11  3rd hit of (D) is SC'able.  In the corner, you can SC into the
     Hou'ou Kyaku for a juggle (though the Hiden Hou'ou Kyaku will miss).
 12  Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 13  Can juggle afterwards.
 14  Can juggle afterwards, but only in the corner.
 14  Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.

                            (C) Tekkyuu Funsai Geki (forward hit only)

 1   Unblockable.  (D) switches sides with your enemy.
 1   Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 2   Knockdown.  If this move counter hits, you can juggle your opponent
     (works best in the corner).  Can use during a backstep.
 3   Hits low, unless canceled into (which makes it SC'able).
 4   Overhead.  Can hit someone lying on the ground.  Has autoguard on
     Chang's belly, when he is slapping it.  The autoguard will block
     jumping, high, and mid-level attacks.
 4   Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 5   Knockdown.  Has autoguard on Chang's front against jumping, high,
     and mid-level attacks.  The autoguard only lasts before Chang
     strikes, meaning you can hit him out of the move before he hits
     you.
 5   The (C) version is delayed while Chang swings his ball over his
     head.  You still have autoguard during this time, and a jumping
     opponent can get hit by the spinning ball.
 5   Either version is SC'able, but only on the forward ball swing
     (and not when Chang holds it over his head).
 6   Knockdown.  Can negate normal and D^ projectiles while the ball
     is spinning.  Chang moves much faster and can travel further
     during this move.
 7   Only requires two buttons to cancel this move.
 8   Unblockable.  Chang only does four slams now.
 8   Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 9   Only has one finish now, which is a Funsai Geki attack.
 10  A multi-hit (A) Funsai Geki.  Does lots of block damage, and
     can be easily comboed into.  Has no autoguard, though.
 10  If this move counter hits from up close, it's possible for it to
     knock the enemy away after only 2-3 hits (results in less damage).
 11  Chang doesn't run forward during this move.  He doesn't have
     autoguard while falling, and the move cannot hit an opponent lying
     on the ground (unless the first hit on the way up connected).  This
     move no longer hits low once Chang lands, either.
 11  This move can still hit twice on the way up and the way down,
     although your opponent can roll to avoid the last hit if they
     were hit on the way up.  Chang performs this move much faster
     than before.
 **  Chang cannot jump over most standing opponents unless he uses the
     Big Jump (tap db~df,ub~uf).
 **  Chang's crouching (C) can hit at three points.  The two lowest
     points are cancelable, while the 3rd point is SC'able.

 n/Ryouko Geki       n/Ryuurou Shuu      (D) Mangetsu Zan (6th)

 1   Unblockable.  (C) switches sides with your enemy.
 1   Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 2   Knockdown and a Counter Wire.  Leaves you in Soshuu stance.
 3   SC'able into Jhun Shiki: Hiten Ressou Kyaku.  Leaves you in Ryouko
     stance.
 4   SC'able into Hou'ou Tenbu Kyaku.  You can make an attack while
     rebounding from this move.
 4   There is a glitch with this move; try to AB roll in mid-air
     immediately after this move hits or is blocked, and Jhun will
     roll.  You can now move around and attack while "walking" in
     mid-air, although you can only use the Ryuurou Shou or Hou'ou
     Tenbu Kyaku in addition to a normal P or K attack.
 4   In this state, if the Ryuurou Shuu misses, Jhun will freeze until
     he is hit.  However, you can use a crouching (A) or Ryuurou Shuu
     repeatedly for an infinite combo.
 5   Can combo your opponent afterwards.  Leaves you in Soshuu stance.
 6   Can combo your opponent afterwards.
 7   Leaves you in Ryouko stance.
 8   SC'able on the last hit.  I find it odd that this is his only
     special move SC.  He had a bunch of them in previous games.
 9   Leaves you in Soshuu stance.
 10  --
 11  Puts you in Soshuu stance.  In this stance, you cannot block or
     roll, and are limited to using only certain moves.  If hit, the
     stance will end.
 12  --
 13  --
 14  Returns you to your normal stance.
 15  Knockdown.  Leaves you in Ryouko stance.  Has autoguard on Jhun's
     lifted knee (before he kicks) vs. high and mid-level attacks.
 16  Leaves you in Ryouko stance.
 17  Can link into Hou'ou Ressou Kyaku.
 18  Knockdown.  Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 18  Knockdown.  Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 19  A Counter Wire.  Has autoguard while Jhun is kicking.  Does a
     high amount of GC damage if blocked.
 20  --
 21  Puts you in Ryouko stance.  In this stance, you cannot block or
     roll, and are limited to using only certain moves.  If hit, the
     stance will end.
 22  --
 23  --
 24  Returns you to your normal stance.
 25  Knockdown.  Leaves you in Soshuu stance.  Has autoguard just before
     Jhun backflips, against jumping, high, and mid-level attacks.
 25  Can hit someone lying on the ground.
 26  Knockdown.  Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 26  Reflects projectiles.
 27  Hits low.  Can juggle afterwards.
 28  Overhead.  Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 29  Hits low.
 30  Leaves you in Soshuu stance.
 31  Hits low.  Can juggle afterwards.

 **  Must be in the Soshuu stance (e.g. d,d + A) to use #12-#20.
 **  Must be in the Ryouko stance (e.g. d,d + A) to use #22-#31.
 **  A simple combo in the Ryouko stance is: C > B > u + A.

 1   Unblockable.  (C) switches sides with your enemy.
 1   Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 2   Overhead and knockdown, unless canceled into (which makes it
     cancelable into any mid-air move).
 2   Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 3   A cancelable, knockdown attack.
 3   Can juggle if the move counter hits (works best in corner).
 4   Knockdown.
 5   Can juggle afterwards.
 6   Can juggle in corner, if opponent is hit in mid-air near the end

 6   (B) is SC'able, but only into the V Slasher: Aerial.
 7   SC'able only into V Slasher.
 8   Knockdown.  (A) makes you fall forward, (C) makes you fall backward.
 9   (B) hits low once the earring hits the ground.  You can combo your
     opponent after either version, since Leona recovers first.
 10  Misses unless performed when near.  Also blockable (resulting in a
     nice bit of animation if blocked).
 10  You can combo after this move, since Leona recovers first.  Using
     this move plants a bomb on her opponent that explodes in two counts
     (you can tell when this will occur, since the "glint" increases in
     frequency).
 10  The bomb is unblockable when it explodes, and can hit an opponent
     even if they are on the floor.  However, it won't hit them if they
     are in an invincible state (getting up or rolling, etc.)  The
     bomb vanishes if Leona is hit, or if she connects with a throw,
     D^, or L^ move, or leaves the battle (i.e. via the Change).
 12  (D) has a delay that prevents you from comboing into it, though it
     also has start-up invincibility before Leona starts running.
 12  Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 13  --
 14  If blocked, Leona retreats all the way across the screen.

 Gatling Attack (2nd)

 1   Unblockable.  (D) switches sides with your enemy.
 2   Unblockable, unless canceled into (which makes it come out faster).
 2   I've managed to cancel a canceled Unblock into a Ralf Kick (i.e.
     c A > f,d,df + C > hcb + D), but it seems very difficult to do.
     Perhaps there is a trick or timing element I haven't figured out.

 4   Can hit on the way up, and the way down.
 5   --
 6   Unblockable.  Now has a start-up delay, but during this time, Ralf
     has autoguard on his mid-body against jumping and high attacks
     (right before he grabs you).
 7   Hits low.
 8   Overhead.  Can juggle afterwards, if your foe is in the corner
     and you land soon enough after hitting them.
 8   Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 9   You don't move forward as far or as fast as you used to if you
     hold f during this move.  This is really noticable if you perform
     the move by alternating between tapping A and C.
 9   Hits twice on a counter hit.
 10  Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 11  Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 12  Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 12  Unblockable and a Counter Wire.  Ralf has autoguard on his body
     once he crouches down, and keeps the autoguard while moving forward
     to attack.  He can autoguard jumping, high, and mid-level attacks
     this way.  Comes out somewhat faster than before.

 2   Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 3   Cancelable.
 4   Blockable.  Will only hit opponents in mid-air, excluding some
     tall standing opponents, like Mukai.
 5   Unblockable.  Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 6   Unblockable if your opponent is crouching.  Otherwise, Clark
     will run forward but do nothing.  Incidentally, this means that
     you can't hit Mukai with this move (since he can't crouch).
 6   Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 7   Blockable, and does no damage.  If you attempt a follow-up, your
     foe can press the same button to escape (i.e., they can break
     out of your (D) Rolling Cradle by pressing D before the move
     begins).  Noticeably slower than last year.
 7   Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 8   Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 9   Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 10  Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 11  Unblockable.  Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 12  Can be used after Napalm Stretch, Frankensteiner, Reverse DDT, or
     Super Argentine Backbreaker.  Seems to have much more range than
     before, making it harder to miss (though in obvious situations
     like Down Evading out of a Napalm Stretch, it will still miss).
 13  Unblockable.  A running throw.
 14  Unblockable.  Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 15  Unblockable.  Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 15  Has a new ending animation in which Clark ends up standing on his
     hands and holding the opponent between his legs.  What a show-off!

 (C) Oniyaki (1st-2nd)

 1   Unblockable.  (C) switches sides with your enemy.
 2   2nd hit is cancelable.  In previous games, the 1st hit was SC'able,
     but I can't get this to work myself.
 3   Overhead, unless canceled into (which makes it cancelable).
 4   Can cross-up an opponent, or be used to start a combo.  If used
     during a backstep, you will sail back further than usual.
 5   --
 6   (C) is SC'able on 1st or 2nd hit.  3rd hit knocks down.
 7   3rd input is an overhead attack.  Recovery from 1st-2nd input is
     slightly slower than before.  However, since the hits can be
     canceled even if they miss, you can still combo off a missed hit.
     An example would be (f + A,A > qcb+ P (misses) > qcb + P > qcb + P)
     for a 4-hit combo.
 7   You cannot Down Evade as you land from the 3rd input.
 8   Iori won't continue this move if the 1st hit is blocked, and this
     move is faster.  If the 1st hit connects against an airborne foe,
     the 2nd hit will probably miss, unless your opponent is low enough.
 8   Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 9   Unblockable and does no damage.  However, it switches sides with
     your opponent and leaves them open to attack.
 9   This move seems to come out faster than before, but Iori has
     less invincibility (if any) while trying to grab you.
 10  --
 11  Only costs 1 level to use, but can only be performed when you are
     the Leader character (think of it as an L^ move).
 11  The timing seems more strict than before.  Try to end up finishing
     the command right after Iori "explodes" his opponent away.
 11  Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 12  You can no longer delay this move, and it does no damage.  Also,
     (A) has a shorter range than (C), and Iori only throws one "pillar"
     instead of multiple ones.
 12  However, this move leaves an opponent open to attack, even if
     they're in mid-air, and they cannot escape from it as if they
     were dizzy.  You can't use another Ya Sakazuki while the first
     one is in effect, but you can use a throw move or Yamibarai.
 13  An overhead attack.
 **  Both the Yaotome and San Shingi no Ni have a pretty far reach,
     so a combo like (stand A > f + A,A > qcf,hcb + P / AC) is possible
     even out in the open (preceed it with a Yuri Ori, if you want).

 (A) Oniyaki                            (B) Hikigane
 (C) Oniyaki (1st)

 1   Unblockable.  (C) switches sides with your enemy.
 1   Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 2   Overhead.   Can use during a backstep.  Knocks down a foe who is in
     mid-air, in which case they cannot use the Down Evade while landing.
 3   Overhead, unless canceled into (which makes it faster and causes
     it to hit twice, the 2nd hit being cancelable).
 4   Both attacks hit low.  If only the 1st hit connects, your opponent
     will recover before you do, so be careful.  This happens more often
     in the corners, obviously.
 5   Has autoguard on Kyo's upper body as he attacks, vs. high and mid-
     level attacks.  The "flame" can negate projectiles.
 6   --
 7   Overhead.  Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 8   --
 9   Overhead.  Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 10  Hits low.  Can hit an opponent on the floor. 
 11  --
 12  The "flame" can negate projectiles, though it's difficult to time.
 13  --
 14  --
 15  Doesn't have any autoguard.
 16  (A) is SC'able.  (C) is SC'able on the 1st hit.
 16  (A) hits twice on a counter hit, but is only SC'able on the 1st hit.
 17  Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 18  Can juggle after 2nd hit of the (D) version.  Orochinagi is now
     too slow to juggle with afterwards (unlike Kusanagi's Orochinagi).
 18  (B) pushes an enemy away on the 1st hit, but doesn't knock them
     down.  The second (B) hit will then knock them away instead of
     upward.  If you combo into this move, you have to do the second
     press late for it to combo (e.g. stand C > qcf + B,B) will only
     get you two hits if you don't delay the last B press).
 18  This move will combo from any cancelable light attack.
 19  (B) is SC'able.  Can juggle afterwards.
 19  (B) avoids low attacks, while (D) dodges high attacks, but only
     for the brief moment when Kyo ducks down in the beginning.
 20  Delaying the move increases the damage slightly, and makes the
     move unblockable if fully delayed.  Also, delaying the move makes
     you immune to jumping and high attacks during that time.
 21  (A) gives you immunity to low attacks if delayed.  (C) gives you
     immunity to jumping, high, and mid-level attacks if delayed.  This
     move comes out slower than before.
 22  This move has no start-up invicibility, although it comes out very
     quickly.  You can chain into it from most light attacks.
 22  The "pillar" can negate normal and D^ projectiles, but after that,
     Kyo's flame attacks can only negate normal projectiles.

 3   Can avoid low attacks.
 4   SC'able.
 5   Knockdown.  Input after the Shinga hits (not during).
 6   (A) carries your further and higher than (C).  This move is
     faster than the Fuuga.
 7   A mid-air dash.  It can't hit your opponent or be canceled out of.
 8   Reverses jumping, high, and mid-level attacks, as well as special
     moves, D^, and L^ moves.  Gato will respond with a flying kick.
 19  Unblockable.  Can grab standing, crouching, or jumping enemies.
 10  A fake version of the Katsuga.  It cannot actually hit, and you
     are not immune to attack when warping away.
 11  (B) carries you further and higher than (D) does.  This move can
     hit from up close, and the (D) version knocks down, as well.
 12  Can hit a falling opponent, and combos from a close (D) Fuuga.
     However, it won't hit an opponent lying on the floor.
 13  Combos from a close Fuuga.  Can juggle afterwards in the corner
     (the Tatsu Kiba works well).
 14  Overhead.  Combos from a close Fuuga.
 15  Hits low.  It's SC'able, too (Tatsu Kiba will combo in that case).
 16  In Garou, the "neckbreaker" part could miss, but I haven't seen
     that happen yet in this game.
 17  The (D) version moves slightly forward when used, and goes higher
     than the (B) version.
 17  You won't get full hits against a mid-air opponent.
 18  Costs 2 levels to use, even though the L^ flash only appears
     during the 3rd input.
 **  Gato didn't carry over all his moves from Garou, but check out
     his CD counter.  Familiar?

 2   --
 3   --
 4   Overhead.
 5   Oddly enough, this move hits fewer times than before, yet can hit
     up to 32 times if your opponent gets "caught" in it.  This most
     often occurs if they try to roll through Billy, but the roll's
     invincibility ends before they've passed through him, resulting
     in them being in the center of the spinning cane's radius.
 5   However, this move still does very low damage for each hit.
 6   Knockdown.  Can hit some tall characters who are standing.
 7   Reverses jumping attacks, special moves, and D^ and L^ moves.
 8   Reverses high, mid-, and low-level moves.  If the reversal is
     triggered, it's SC'able on the 1st-3rd hits.
 9   --
 10  Knockdown.  Can only be used if the Chuudan Uchi hits.
 11  If this move hits on the way up, the remaining hits will juggle.
     In this case, you can juggle after the (B) version.  However, they
     have to be in the corner in order for you to juggle them (Billy's
     Chou Kaen Senpuu Kon works well).
 11  It doesn't seem like this move is controllable anymore, although
     Billy can home in on his opponent's location a little (try
     rolling through the move on the way up to see what I mean).
 12  Negates normal and D^ projectiles.
 13  Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 14  Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 14  Can juggle afterwards.  Considering how nice the Liar Elemental
     looked last year, this move has really crappy animation ;)
 **  Billy's crouching (A) is a little slower than last year.

     a projectile of his own.
 9   Reverses jumping, high, and mid-level attacks, as well as special
     moves and D^ and L^ moves.  SC'able if the reversal is triggered.
 10  1st hit is SC'able.
 11  2nd hit is an overhead attack.
 11  Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 12  Can be canceled into any Hebi Tsukai.
 13  Unblockable.
 14  (A) travels higher and further than (C).  This move has a higher
     arc than before.
 15  Unblockable.  You can tap P after Yamazaki starts laughing to change
     the Drill's outcome.  Damage-wise, there isn't much of a difference
     between the levels except for the Repeated Hebi Tsukai version.

 20  Won't raise your foe's Power Gauge if used.
 21  Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 21  When used, Yamazaki dashes forward and performs an unblockable
     attack.  However, if he hasn't reached his opponent after the dash
     (or if they move out of the way), then he will clutch his head and
     be left open to attack (just like his old qcf + ABCD move).  Can
     even hit airborne foes, as long as they aren't too high.
 21  You don't have to enter the command as fast as you do for the
     Hero Team's "button-press" moves.  You can try using A,A,f,B+C
     if you want (it's easier to do than the official motion).
 **  Has a creepy new animation if you stand in place for a while.
 **  None of the Hebi Tsukai moves will combo from light attacks anymore.

 (none.)

 1   Unblockable.  (D) switches sides with your enemy.
 1   Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 2   Hits low, unless canceled into (which makes it cancelable).
 2   You can cancel this move as it starts, or once King has finished
     sliding, which puts you a little closer to the enemy and makes
     comboing off of it easier.
 3   --
 4   Hits low.  Only the Saikou Hougeki, Psycho Reflector, Ko Ressou,
     and Tamayura no Shitsune can reflect this move.  Neither Bai Gaeshi
     will work, either.
 5   2nd fireball is a knockdown attack.
 6   Can juggle afterwards (Silent Slash works well).  If this move
     hits at the end of the "rising" animation, King lands a little
     earlier and has more juggle options (like a standing attack or
     even an (A) Top Venom, although that is very difficult to do).
 7   Hits twice.
 8   --
 9   Combos much better than the old Silent Flash would.
 9   There is an interesting property of this move in that the last hit
     knocks down your opponent.  So, if you manage to have the last hit
     miss, you can juggle your opponent upon landing, even with another
     Silent Slash (and if the last hit of that one misses, you can do a
     third one, etc.)  An example set-up would be a character in the
     corner who small jumps straight upward.  If you perform the Silent
     Slash during this time, you won't get in the full number of hits
     and can juggle your opponent.
 10  --
 11  (A) makes King fire an Under Venom for the 2nd hit, while (C) makes
     her fire one for the 1st hit.  Either version has to be blocked low,
     which means that if it isn't, the remaining hits (there are four
     total) will combo.
 **  I've seen King do a series of kicks up close, like her old Mirage
     Dance.  It may have just been the end of the Illusion Dance, though.

 1   Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 2   Overhead, unless canceled into (which makes it cancelable).
 2   Either way, this move is SC'able.  I noticed that if you cancel
     into the M. Typhoon, the opponent can't roll or jump out of the

     as a 2-hit combo, that's what it essentially is.
 3   2nd hit is a low attack and is cancelable.

 14  Unblockable.  Only grabs from up close.
 14  Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 15  (B) has a shorter range than (D), so it won't combo from some
     attacks (like a close standing C or D).  However, both versions
     rise much higher than before.
 15  Mary says "Mary's Dynamite Swinging!" during this move, oddly
     enough.  Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 16  Unblockable.  Mary now dashes forward before the actual throw
     attempt, so you can't combo into it anymore, except from the
     Hammer Arch (or a combo ending in the Hammer Arch, like the
     1st hit of a standing C).
 16  Tel says this move can also be comboed into from a close standing
     D, although in my tests, the opponent was able to jump out of the
     way between moves.  Perhaps it works under a particular setup.
 16  Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 17  Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.

 7   Negates projectiles.  Hits a 2nd time after the intial lightning
     strike.  The (C) version hits many times in a very short period,
     which doesn't exactly defeat autoguard, but will outdo it in
     some situations.
 7   If delayed, the "orb" that appears behind Benimaru can hit his
     opponent (not the lightning flowing into it).  This makes a great
     defense for someone who tries to roll through you, although they
     can't be hit by the forward strike if you release the button.
 8   (B) is SC'able on any hit.  (D) is SC'able on 1st-5th hit.
 8   Since (B) knocks away on the 3rd hit, only the Taikuu Raikou Ken

     the Gen'ei Hurricane, unfortunately.
 8   You can combo the Gen'ei Hurricane from the (D) version, but this
     must be done quickly, or the supercancel won't combo.
 9   If this move hits as Benimaru's leg retracts, it is SC'able and
     knocks down.
 10  SC'able on the first hit.  It's much easier to cancel into the

 10  Lightning bolt can hit an opponent lying on the floor.
 12  Negates projectiles.

 Aragami Mikansei               Dokugami Mikansei (non-spark ver.)
 Kototsuki Mikansei (1st)       Nie Togi (1st-2nd)

 1   Unblockable.  (D) switches sides with your enemy.
 1   Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 2   Cancelable.  Becomes faster if canceled into.
 3   SC'able.
 4   Knockdown.  SC'able unless you get the "spark" effect (see below).
 4   Randomly, this move produces a "spark" when used.  In this case,
     it hits twice and has autoguard against high and mid-level attacks
     just before Shingo hits (when his back is to the screen).  If this
     move hits, Shingo freaks out afterwards (his old Striker Call
     animation), but this won't happen if it misses or is blocked.
 5   1st hit is SC'able.  2nd hit is an overhead.
 5   Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 6   (A) hits twice on a counter hit.
 7   1st hit is unblockable and functions as a throw.  This move now has
     a ridiculously huge range and can be done from so far away that some
     or all of the hits will miss (try stand B > f + B > f,d,df + K in
     the corner to see what I mean).  The range is reduced if your
     opponent is already blocking, though.
 7   SC able on 1st-2nd hits.  Can juggle afterward.
 8   Always knocks down, unlike previous games.
 9   Has a shorter range.  Can be used during a backstep (which is
     quite handy) or as you start to jump (i.e. qcf,uf + K).
 10  Invincible at the beginning, but not at the end...and you can
     be thrown at any time.  You can pass through your opponent with
     this move, and can cancel into it, of course.
 11  Can juggle afterwards.  Won't drop an opponent's guard anymore.
 12  Makes Shingo attack early, before he finishes running.
 13  It seems like you can't SC into this move from the Aragami or the
     1st hit of the Nie Togi.  You just get the Kake Hourin instead.
 14  Shingo's old (D) Oboroguruma.  He will fall down at the end of
     this move, and the fall acts as an overhead attack.  The last
     kick (prior to the fall) does the most damage.

 n/Zujou Barai (initial animation only)

 1   Unblockable.  (C) switches sides with your enemy.
 2   Knocks a mid-air opponent high into the air, though you can't
     juggle them afterwards (though you could pick them off the floor
     with a Kirikabu Gaeshi).
 2   The intial animation is SC'able (before Goro raises his arm up).
 3   (C) is a fake-out.  (A) hits low and affects anyone who is standing
     or crouching (so they must block low to defend against it).
 4   Unblockable.  Combos from a light attack, but not a strong one, due
     to it's short range.
 5   Unblockable.  If you throw your opponent into the corner with the
     (C) version of this move, you can pick them up with the Kirikabu
     Gaeshi.
 6   Invincible at the beginning, but not while recovering.  You can't
     pass through your opponent with this move, though it's useful for
     avoiding attacks while moving in for a throw attempt.
 7   Blockable.  An anti-air move that can hit some tall standing foes.
 8   Blockable.  Can pick up an enemy lying on the floor.
 9   Reverses jumping, high, and mid-level attacks.  Low attacks will
     not trigger it, though Goro is invincible for a split second at
     the beginning, causing early low attacks to pass through him.
 9   Can follow with a Kirikabu Gaeshi if foe is thrown into the corner.
 10  Unblockable.
 11  Unblockable.
 **  Your enemy can't Down Evade out of any of Goro's throws, except
     the triggered Meido Otoshi.

 2   Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 3   --
 4   Overhead.  Cancelable as it hits or is blocked, but not while
     Athena is rebounding.
 5   Can use during a backstep.
 5   2nd hit is cancelable.
 6   Knockdown.  If this move counter hits, you can juggle your opponent
     (works best in the corner).  Cancelable in either case.
 7   --
 8   Knockdown.  Reflects projectiles, but no longer reflects D^ or L^
     projectiles.  You can't juggle afterwards anymore.
 9   A teleport.  (D) carries you further than (B).  Athena is invincible
     only when she begins to move forward--she can be hit before the
     actual teleport (while twirling) or once she has traveled forward
     a certain distance.
 10  (A) is SC'able on 3rd hit.  (C) is SC'able on 4th-5th hit.  The mid-
     air version works the same, but (C) is SC'able on the 3rd-5th hit.
 10  Can use during a backstep (same with the Phoenix Arrow).
 10  No longer combos from a strong attack (A and B still work, though).
 11  (D) knocks down (and is always aimed towards your opponent).
     Either version is SC'able until Athena reaches the ground.
 12  (D) knocks down (and is always aimed towards your opponent).
 13  Knockdown.  You can cancel it or interrupt with the Crystal Shoot.
     The spinning crystals will negate normal, D^ and L^ projectiles.
 14  --
 15  On the ground, (A) travels forward, while (C) rises into the air
     after a while.  In the air, both travel downward, then horizontally
     above the ground.
 16  Now, Athena does all the hits automatically.  You can cancel the
     3rd-10th hits into any of her finishers.
 17  Knockdown.  Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 18  Can juggle afterwards.
 19  --
 20  Costs 1 level to use.  Restores a small amount of lost life.
 21  Costs 1 level to use.
 22  Results in a random finish, though Athena may just fall on her
     behind instead.  If she does the Healing Athena or Psycho Bomber,
     they cost no extra levels and are performed for free.
 **  Athena's (C) and (D) attacks push an enemy away, preventing most
     special moves from comboing afterwards (although a weak Psycho
     Sword vs. a large opponent will still combo).

 1   Unblockable.  (D) switches sides with your enemy.
 1   Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 2   Cancelable on either hit.
 3   Knockdown.  Hits low.
 4   (A) is SC'able on the 3rd hit.  (C) is SC'able on the 5th hit.
 4   The last hit does the most damage.
 5   Knockdown.  2nd hit is SC'able.  Has autoguard on Hinako's upper
     body, just before the first hit (will defend against jumping
     and high level attacks only).
 6   Same properties as the Tsukiage, but you can't Down Evade if hit
     by this move.
 7   Knockdown.  Hits multiple times if blocked.  Hits twice on a
     counter hit.  The (A) version has one measly frame of autoguard
     on Hinako's head at the very beginning.
 8   Blockable.  Switches sides with your opponent.
 8   Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 9   Unblockable.  Hinako will rush forward during this move.  Once
     she grabs her foe, they knock her away and take no damage.
 9   However, you can use a follow-up move once the red "hit spark"
     appears to prevent them from escaping.  If you mis-time the
     follow-up, they will escape anyway.  You can no longer "cancel"
     the end of this move directly into another attack (use the
     Tsuki Hanashi if you want to use a follow-up).
 10  Does no damage, but leaves foe open to attack (try following with
     the Ooichiban or Morote Zuki).
 11  Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 12  Switches sides with your opponent.
 12  Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 13  Hinako pushes you across the playing field during this move.
 13  Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 14  Has mid-level invulnerability at the beginning.
 15  Blockable.  Can grab opponents who are in mid-air.
 16  A Critical Wire.  Obviously, you can't juggle your opponent if
     they are too close to the wall when used.  If you have your power
     set to MAX, you can juggle them repeatedly for an infinite.
 16  Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 **  An interesting property of Hinako's standing A is that if you try
     to perform the (A) Tsukidashi during this move, it won't come out
     afterwards.  In fact, even rapidly tapping A will just result in
     repeated standing As.
 **  For the curious, Hinako has two intros against her opponent; one
     where she throws salt, and the cool new one where she punches
     herself on the arms and poses, then smiles.

 Doku Sasori (1st-3rd)

 1   Unblockable.  (D) switches sides with your enemy.
 2   --
 3   Overhead, unless canceled into (which makes it cancelable).
 4   SC'able on any hit (though nothing combos off the 3rd hit).  Has
     invincibility in the beginning (when she's pulling out her tazers).
 5   --
 6   (A) flies diagonally upward, while (C) goes straight up.
 7   Can fly in any direction.  Can use during a backstep.
 8   Can be used from any "Suzume Bachi" move, or while bouncing after
     the Mizuchi.  You don't have to hit your opponent in order to change
     directions, but you can't move in the same direction twice.
 9   (C) flies further than (A) does.  You can have two on-screen at
     the same time, but they must be different strengths (A then C, or
     C then A).  This move can't actually hit until the yo-yo starts
     hovering, but it remains on screen for some time.  It can negate
     projectiles once hovering, as well.
 9   A character who lands atop a yo-yo will bounce off and can be
     juggled if they are in the corner.  It won't work if they just
     walk into it.
 9   Yamazaki's Bae Gaeshi works on this move, even though most
     "projectile reflecting" moves do not.
 10  Malin only performs the rest of this move if the diving kick hits.
 11  Has a short range, but can be used as an anti-air attack.  If Malin
     is hit out of this move but the kick connects, there is a pause,
     then her opponent flies up into the air and can be juggled.
 12  Overhead.  Can hit an opponent lying on the floor.
 12  (A) makes you bounce forward afterward.  (C) makes you bounce
     backward.  You can cancel into the Houkou Tenkan or Jo'ou Bachi
     while moving, though I've only gotten the Houkou Tenkan to juggle.
 12  Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.

 Narrow Spike                          (C) Crow Bites (1st-2nd)

 1   Unblockable.  (D) switches sides with your enemy.
 1   Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 2   An overhead and knockdown attack, unless you cancel into it
     (which makes it cancelable).  Even if you don't cancel into it,
     it can be canceled directly into the Heaven's Drive or Chain Drive.
 2   Counter Wire.  Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 3   No longer an overhead.  It can be canceled into a mid-air move,
     but only AFTER it hits, which makes the timing rather difficult.
 4   (A) knocks down, (C) does not.  This move no longer combos from
     light attacks, though it was reanimated a little.
 5   The speed is determined by the button used for the Eins Trigger.
 6   You can juggle your opponent afterwards.  If you wait a moment
     after the (A) Eins Trigger, they can be juggled higher.  This
     allows for the following corner combos:

                near D > qcf + A > wait > f + D > qcf,qcf + C
          near C (1st) > qcf + A > wait > f + D > qcf,qcf + C
              crouch D > qcf + A > wait > f + D > qcf,qcf + A

 7   A teleport.  Invincible only when K' has turned black or has
     vanished (which means you can be hit at the very start or end).
 8   See entry #7.
 9   A projectile fired diagonally downward.  There is some delay on
     the recovery, making this move rather risky to use.
 10  Knockdown.  Harder to cancel into the Narrow Spike now, since
     you have to travel forward a certain distance first.
 11  SC'able.  Hits low, and is a knockdown attack.  Can use before
     the Minutes Spike connects, or when it hits or is blocked.
 12  (A) is SC'able (in the corner, Heaven's Drive works well).
     (C) is SC'able on 1st-2nd hit (Chain Drive can combo even out
     in the open).  (C) doesn't carry you across the screen anymore.
 13  Still no longer cancelable (I loved this move in 2001). ;)
 14  Delaying this move has no effect.  It seems as if you can't super
     cancel into it.  (C) combos easier than (A) does, at least out
     in the open.  Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 15  A multi-uppercut move ending in a Tsuika Kougeki.  Your enemy can't
     Down Evade if hit by this move.  Incidentally, "Heaven's Drive" is
     the name of a song by the j-rock band L'Arc~en~ciel.
 16  If the sunglasses hit, K' performs an auto-combo.  If they are
     blocked, he does a teleporting elbow hit (which results in the
     auto-combo if it hits).  If the glasses miss, he stands around for
     a while and is open to attack.
 16  Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.

 n/Mongolian                            Double Bomber (2nd)

 1   Unblockable.  (D) switches sides with your enemy.
 1   Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 2   Overhead, unless you cancel into (which makes it come out faster).
     Either way, it is SC'able.
 3   Cancelable.  Knocks a mid-air opponent high into the air.  In the
     corner, this will allow for a juggle with the Bunker Buster.
 4   Won't combo from the Maxima Missile if you canceled into it (so
     crouch A > df + C > qcf + P doesn't work this year).
 5   2nd hit is SC'able.
 6   Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 7   See entry #4.
 8   2nd hit is SC'able.
 9   Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 10  Unblockable.  Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 11  Now hits an opponent as they fall, and not once they are on the
     ground.  So, you have to adjust your timing.  If you do it too
     early, Maxima misses and is left open to attack.
 12  Unblockable.  Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 13  Knockdown.  Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 13  Counter Wire.  Negates normal and D^ projectiles.
 14  Blockable.  An anti-air throw, but it can hit some tall standing
     foes, like Mukai. Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 15  Overhead.  Can hit on the way up (now for multiple hits) and on
     the way down.  (C) hits behind your opponent when done out in the
     open, requiring them to block in the opposite direction.
 15  This move has autoguard in the beginning and end (when Maxima is
     hunched close to the ground).
 16  Unblockable.  Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 17  Negates and passes through normal, and D^ projectiles.  Can't
     hit from up close, but comes out really fast.
 **  Maxima's crouching C has autoguard against jumping, high, and mid-
     level attacks, right before he spreads his arms out.
 **  Maxima's far standing C has autoguard against jumping and high
     attacks, as he rears his fist back.
 **  Maxima's crouching A can't even link anymore, let alone chain into
     itself.

 Boomerang Shot (1st)                  Strings Shot A/B/C (1st)

 1   Unblockable.  (C) switches sides with your enemy.
 1   Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 2   Faster, and the last hit is cancelable.  You must time your button
     presses to coincide with the hits, or the move won't be completed.
 3   Knockdown.  If this move counter hits, you can juggle your opponent
     (works best in the corner).
 4   Knockdown.
 5   1st hit is SC'able.  2nd hit knocks down.  Your enemy can't Down
     Evade if hit by this move.  It's possible for the 1st hit to miss.
 5   The 2nd hit is no longer a "surefire juggle", meaning it won't
     connect after the last Whip Shot or a late Spiral Pick.
 6   1st hit is SC'able.  2nd hit is an overhead.
 7   1st hit is SC'able.  2nd hit drags an opponent next to you, but you
     can no longer follow with anything, it would seem.
 8   1st hit is SC'able.  2nd hit is a low attack.
 9   Can no longer cancel the Strings Shot without delaying it.
 10  Can move backward or forward while delaying a Strings Shot.
 11  Hits low.  Can be fired 7 times before Whip has to reload.  This
     move has less range, won't juggle when used repeatedly, and cannot
     hit an opponent on the ground (!!!) making it even more useless than
     the '99 version (as if such a thing was possible).
 11  When the language isn't set to Japanese, Whip will fiddle with what
     seems to be an earring instead of fire a gun.
 12  Whip does the whole thing, even if it misses.  Has a new animation.
 13  Whip won't complete the move if the first hit misses.  In this case,
     she does a few whip strikes, the last being a knockdown attack.
     This occurs even if the hits after the first one connect.
 **  Crouching (A) can once again hit an opponent lying on the floor.

 (none.)

 1   Unblockable.  (D) switches sides with your enemy.
 1   Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 2   Overhead.   Can use during a backstep.  Knocks down a foe who is in
     mid-air, in which case they cannot use the Down Evade while landing.
 3   2nd hit is an overhead, unless canceled into (which makes it faster
     and cancelable).  It can't combo with the Orochinagi, though.
 4   Both attacks hit low.  If only the 1st hit connects, your opponent
     will recover before you do, so be careful.  This happens more often
     in the corners, obviously.
 5   --
 6   Can juggle after 2nd hit of (D) version.  Kusanagi's Orochinagi
     will combo in this case, unlike Kyo's version.  (B) version knocks
     up on the 2nd hit and not forward as Kyo's does.
 6   This move will combo from any cancelable light attack.
 7   Won't finish if 1st hit is blocked.  If it hits a mid-air enemy, the
     2nd hit may miss, even though it's aimed upward and usually hits.
     Like Iori's Kototsuki, this move is faster and has more range.
 8   (A) hits twice on a counter hit.  Either version has autoguard just
     before Kusanagi can hit, against high and mid-level attacks.
 9   Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by the (D) version.
 10  Knocks a hit opponent high into the air.
 11  The Nue Tsumi can reverse high and mid-level attacks, if Kusanagi
     is hit while his arm is at chest level.
 12  The Nue Tsumi can reverse low attacks, if Kusanagi is hit while
     holding his arm down near the floor.
 12  Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 13  (A) gives you immunity to low attacks if delayed.  (C) gives you
     immunity to jumping, high, and mid-level attacks if delayed.
 14  Your body can hit an opponent while it is on fire.  It will also
     negate normal and D^ projectiles.  The priority on the fire seems
     pretty high--it can outhit most incoming attacks.

 1   Unblockable.  (D) switches sides with your enemy.
 2   Overhead, unless canceled into (which makes it faster & cancelable).
 3   Can avoid some very low attacks while Chizuru is in the air.
 4   Hits low, unless canceled into (which makes it cancelable).
 4   You can either cancel it at the start of the animation, or once
     Chizuru has slid forward (which is advisable for moves like the
     Tenjin no Kotowari, which has a bad horizontal range and will get
     less hits if you cancel into it from her df+B immediately).
 5   Knockdown.  If this move counter hits, you can juggle your opponent
     (works best in the corner).
 6   Knockdown.  (C) is also an overhead, and gives you invincibility
     during the intial part of the "spinning" animation.  Both versions
     can reflect projectiles during the "downward swipe" at the end.
 7   Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 8   Knockdown.  (B) is SC'able (San Shingi no San works well, or
     Reigi no Ishizue, if you wait a moment first).
 8   (D) is SC'able on either hit (anything works well afterwards).
 9   Knockdown.  The button used affects the outcome:

                A - short range; illusionary attack
                B - medium range
                C - longest range; illusionary attack
                D - long range

 10  Must use same button as used for Uchiage.  Can also be performed as
     (b,d,db + same button).  (A) or (D) results in a leaping attack,
     while (B) or (C) is an arm sweep.
 11  Knockdown.  (P) has a longer range than (K).  Using (A) or (D)
     makes you attack with an illusion.
 11  Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 12  Like the Uchiage version, but the (B) / (C) arm sweep can hit a
     foe who is lying on the floor, and will combo from the previous hit.
 13  Overhead.  The button used affects the outcome:

                A - Short range; illusionary attack
                B - Short range
                C - Long range
                D - Long range; illusionary attack

 14  The (C) version has start-up invincibility, before Chizuru starts
     moving forward.
 14  A hit enemy flashes purple for five counts.  During that time, they
     cannot use command attacks, special moves, or D^ or L^ moves.
 15  (B) does more hits, while (D) is faster and has a further reach.
     However, the first few hits of the (D) version will knock an
     opponent in the air (resulting in the remaining hits juggling).
 15  You have to be careful when using this move, since canceling into
     it may push an enemy far away and result in less hits (although
     a standing close B into (B) Sanrai still works).  And in the
     corners, the double may walk off screen before the move ends.
 15  You cannot control Chizuru while her duplicate is attacking anymore.
 16  Has the same "move-sealing" properties of the Reigi no Ishizue,
     if the last hit connects.
 16  Your double's attacks don't do any block damage, unlike the
     Sanrai no Fujin duplicate.  Only Chizuru's "flash" attack at the
     end does block damage.  However, this move can still get the full
     24 hits even if used in the corner, unlike the Sanrai no Fujin.
 **  For any of Chizuru's moves that involves an illusion, the illusion
     can be hit, and doing so will damage Chizuru.

 --------------------------------------------------------------
 (none.)

 1   Unblockable.  (C) switches sides with your enemy.
 1   Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 2   2nd hit knocks down.  Either hit is cancelable.
 3   2nd hit is an overhead.  Either hit is cancelable.
 4   1st hit is a low attack, unless you cancel into it.  Either hit
     is cancelable.
 5   Overhead.  Can negate projectiles during the "downward swipe" at
     the end.  (C) makes you travel forward twice, then attack (if you
     cross up your opponent after the first movement, Maki will move
     or turn backwards and hit them from behind).
 5   (A) has invincibility at the start.  (C) works the same way,
     but you regain your invincibility as you begin the second spin
     forward (you can be hit in-between spins, though).
 5   Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 6   Either version makes you attack with an illusion.  This move hits
     multiple times if blocked.  If it hits, Maki does a mid-air punch,
     then a diving kick.  The mid-air punch usually knocks her opponent
     out of the way of the diving kick, but in certain circumstances
     (like when you're in the corner), the diving kick will combo.
 6   Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 7   Maki attacks with her illusion.  If it hits, she automatically
     follows with a series of attacks.
 7   However, the series won't necessarily combo in all situations.  In
     that case, the 2nd attack (shitsune) and 4th attack (leaping punch)
     are overhead attacks, and the 5th hit (double handed shitsune) is
     unblockable.
 7   Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 8   Maki will dash forward and attack by herself.
 8   Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 9   (A) acts like a fake teleport; your image moves forward but you
     reappear in your same spot.  You can be hit at the very start of
     the move.
 10  (B) works in the same way as (A), but it is a real teleport.
     Unfortunately, you can be hit at any time while moving.
 11  (C) makes Maki leap into the air, then turn around and perform a
     kick (which must be blocked the other way if she ends up moving
     past you).  The kick is a knockdown attack, and it can be avoided
     if Maki's jump carries you too far forward.
 11  Also, the kick is a Counter Wire.
 12  (D) makes an illusion leap up and perform a diving kick; it looks
     like a low attack, but in fact is an overhead that must be blocked
     high.  You cannot AB escape this move as you land.
 13  If done from up close, this is an unblockable throw that ends in
     Chizuru showing up and doing her "Ishizue" attack, which seals
     your moves for five seconds (meaning you can't use command
     attacks, special moves, D^ or L^ moves).
 13  If the move misses or is out of range, Maki twirls forward, then
     backward to her original position, and is open to attack the
     entire time.
 14  Unlike Chizuru's Sanrai no Fujin, Maki can move around and attack
     while her duplicate is moving forward.  However, she can only use
     normal attacks or throws during this time (no command attacks,
     special moves, or D^ moves are allowed).  This move will negate
     projectiles while your double is moving forward.
 15  Chizuru will appear and perform her "Ishizue" attack, which seals
     your moves for five seconds (meaning you can't use command attacks,
     special moves, D^ or L^ moves).  This move is far too slow to combo
     into, however.  Why she even has it when her (qcf + B) throw does
     the same thing (and costs no levels to use) is beyond me.
 **  Maki's far standing (C) is an overhead attack.
 **  Maki's crouching (C) is blockable, but only if you are already
     blocking an attack or coming out of block stun.  If you aren't,
     it's essentially unblockable. ;P
 **  Maki has no L^ moves.  If you consider that she isn't meant to be
     playable and only fights you in a team where Chizuru is the leader,
     it makes sense, though.  Besides, does she _need_ one? ;)
 **  Unlike Chizuru, Maki's illusions cannot be hit.  If struck with a
     projectile, they will negate the projectile and vanish (except
     for her d,d + A illusion).  The Sanrai no Fujin illusion can even
     negate D^ projectiles.
 **  You can walk around (but not use command, special, or D^ moves)
     during the (A) Iotsu no Utamai, Sakaki no Kirinusa, Iwasaki no
     Ubusuna, or Reigi no Ishizue.

 1   Unblockable.  (C) switches sides with your enemy.
 1   Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 2   Knockdown.  Reflects normal and D^ projectiles.
 3   2nd hit is an overhead and is cancelable.
 4   Knockdown.  Can cancel the recovery into any move but Adel's
     command attacks (i.e. df + any), for a juggle.  This works well
     with the G. Sklaven.  You can also juggle a person even without
     canceling, if the move is quick enough (say, a crouching A).
 5   2nd hit is an overhead.  2nd-3rd hits are cancelable.  4th hit is
     a knockdown attack.  4th hit is also a Counter Wire if the previous
     hits missed, although this can be hard to arrange, since it is the
     2nd part of his third kick attack (so you have to counter hit your
     foe with the last extending animation of his last kick).
 5   Your enemy can't Down Evade if hit by this move.
 6   --
 7   If you cancel into the G. Kicken, it becomes a leaping knockdown
     attack.  (B) is SC'able (G. Sclaven juggles in this case), and (D)
     hits twice and acts as an overhead attack on the 2nd hit.
 7   (D) can also juggle falling opponents (i.e. from a crouching D).
     However, the (D) version is too slow to combo from an attack.
 8   Unblockable, unlike Rugal's God Press.  (C) travels further than
     (A) does, and has invincibility at the very start.
 9   (B) hits twice and can be used as an anti-air.  It can also destroy
     most any projectile (D^, L^, even the Thermidor).  Can juggle
     afterwards in the corner.
 9   (D) slides across the screen with a low attack, then hits once.
     You are not invincible during the sliding, but you can go under
     mid-level projectiles (not low ones, though).
 9   Can juggle after the (B) version in the corner.
 10  Blockable.  (A) stops short of a full-screen's distance, while
     the (C) version travels full-screen.  Either version leaves Adel
     wide open for some time if blocked, though he has invincibility
     during the intial part of the forward dash.
 **  I've seen Adel's name alternately spelled as "Adelbeid", but the
     game spells it "Adelheid" in the credits.
 **  It seems odd that Adel has only one D^ move and no Kaiser Wave.
     Of course, I'm a Rugal fan, so no Kaiser Wave is a travesty ;)

 4.  GAMEPLAY NOTES
 ========================================================================

 This section explains various aspects of gameplay in greater detail.
 Entries listed in alphabetical order.

 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
 AUTOGUARD
 ------------------------------------------------------------------------

 Some moves have autoguard.  This means that if you are attacked while
 performing that move, you will "block" the attack automatically (the
 "block" hit sparks appear, even though you don't actually go into a
 blocking animation).  What's more, you will continue to perform whatever
 move you were doing as if there was no interruption.

 Since autoguard is really just blocking, you will still take block
 damage from special moves, D^, and L^ moves, and you can even be Guard
 Crushed while using autoguard.  As an example, if Ryo blocks 10 standing
 Cs, then parries the 11th standing C with his Joudan Uke, he will be
 Guard Crushed.

 Autoguard only occurs on specific parts of the body.  For example,
 during Ryo's Zanretsu Ken, he only has autoguard on his reared fist,
 so if you hit him in the legs or the back of the head, he will still
 be injured.  Going by the "body" rule, we can see that autoguard can
 defend against four types of attacks:

      Jumping       Any jumping attack.
      High          Attacks that hit the head or chest.
      Middle        Attacks that hit the waist or knees.
      Low           Attacks that hit the shin or foot.
 
 Ryo's Joudan and Gedan Uke have the odd property of being "autoguard
 only" moves.  They have no function aside from offering autoguard
 against incoming attacks.  However, if the autoguard is actually
 triggered, either "Uke" move becomes cancelable.

 Another property of autoguard is that (using Ryo's Zanretsu Ken as
 an example again), Ryo only has autoguard while his fist is reared.
 Once he starts attacking, he can be hit out of the move.  So autoguard
 only affects certain animation frames of a move as well.  For some
 characters, this can mean only one frame has autoguard (like Hinako's
 Chou Zutsuki), while others may have multiple frames of autoguard
 (like the beginning and end of Maxima's Bunker Buster).

 Also, note that some normal attacks have autoguard, such as Maxima's
 far standing (C) punch.


 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
 CHANGE
 ------------------------------------------------------------------------

 To Change, press BC or CD.  This lets you switch teammates in mid-fight.
 It can only be used when the CHANGE OK! message is over your Power
 Gauge.  You cannot cancel into a Change attempt.
       
 The "Change" system would make a lot more sense if it worked this way:
 BC takes you to the next team member, CD takes you back one.  However,
 this isn't always the case.  Here's how it works:

                1st Member              BC to 2nd, CD to 3rd
                2nd Member              BC to 1st, CD to 3rd
                3rd Member              BC to 1st, CD to 2nd

 In other words, you use BC to switch between the 1st and 2nd member,
 and CD to switch between the 2nd and 3rd member.

 When you use the Change, your character will taunt, then leap off-
 screen.  If hit during the taunt, the Change does not occur.  However,
 once the taunt is done, they are invincible while exiting.  The
 incoming partner is invincible while in the air, but can be hit upon
 landing, before they have a chance to block.  They will leap to the
 exact spot where your previous teammate was.  After changing team
 members, the CHANGE OK! sign vanishes for three seconds.  It will
 only vanish if the change actually occured (not if you got hit out
 of a taunt beforehand).

 Surprisingly, all characters can use the Change, including Adel and
 Mukai (under certain situations.  See Section 5 for details).


 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
 CHANGE ATTACK
 ------------------------------------------------------------------------

 To perform a Change Attack, input qcf + BC or CD.  Your character will
 perform an attack that does a little bit of damage (it is the same no
 matter which button pairing you use).  That character then leaps away,
 regardless of whether or not the attack hits, misses, or is blocked,
 and their teammate will leap on-screen with a jumping attack.  Note
 that the teammate does not leap to the same location as their partner,
 but rather, dives in at the same angle each time.

 You can combo or even cross-up an opponent after landing from your
 jumping attack, since you recover from your incoming attack faster
 than they do from getting hit.  However, if you hit a mid-air opponent
 with the Change Attack, then it knocks them straight up into the air,
 allowing the incoming partner to juggle them as they fall.

 You can't cancel an attack into the Change Attack, but it does come out
 fast enough for some characters to link into it.  An example might be
 Shen's close standing (C) into qcf+BC/CD, or most characters' jumping
 C or Ds into a Change Attack upon landing.
 
 To use the Change Attack, the CHANGE OK! sign must be present, and you
 need one Power Gauge level as well.  After using the Change Attack,
 the CHANGE OK! message vanishes for about three seconds.  The order
 that you change in is the same as the "Change" move, above:

                1st Member              BC to 2nd, CD to 3rd
                2nd Member              BC to 1st, CD to 3rd
                3rd Member              BC to 1st, CD to 2nd

 Note that a character who is hit while making a Change Attack (before
 they have a chance to leap out), will not change.  This means that
 while they will lose a Power Gauge level, they will not lose the
 CHANGE OK! sign.  Note that you cannot cancel into a Change Attack.

 Surprisingly, all characters can use the Change Attack, including Adel
 and Mukai (under certain situations.  See Section 5 for details).


 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
 COUNTER HIT
 ------------------------------------------------------------------------

 A counter hit occurs if you hit an opponent who is making an attack
 other than a normal Punch or Kick.  For example, hitting Kyo during
 a Goufu You would work, as would hitting Mai out of her Kagerou no Mai.
 A move that counter hits generally does slightly more damage than
 usual.
 
 Some moves have added properties when they counter hit.  For instance,
 Ryo's (A) Kohou hits twice instead of once, while Ralf's Galactica
 Phantom becomes a Counter Wire (see below).  Other moves allow juggles
 if they counter hit, such as any character who retained their old CD
 move (like Chang's Tekkyuu Geki or Athena's Star Debut).


 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
 CRITICAL AND COUNTER WIRES
 ------------------------------------------------------------------------

 Some moves will cause an opponent to fly across the screen if hit.
 They will bounce off the wall, and can be juggled as they rebound.
 These moves are called Critical Wires.  An example would be Hinako's
 Morote Zuki.

 Counter Wires have the same effect, but only if the move counter hits.
 An example is Shen Woo's Zetsu! Gekiken.  If it hits you, nothing
 happens.  If it counter hits, however, your opponent will bounce off
 the wall and can be attacked as they fall.


 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
 DAMAGE SCALING
 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
              
 Damage scaling reduces the damage that a move inflicts.  It occurs in
 two situations:

 Cancels
 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
 One is if you cancel a move into another move.  Doing this lowers the
 damage of the latter move, even if doesn't combo (i.e. Ryo's crouching
 C into Koho Shippuu Ken).  This affects any kind of cancel--such as
 all of these examples:

   Rapid Attack Cancel      Duo Lon's crouching A > crouching A
   Normal Attack Cancel     Shingo's standing C > Aragami
   Command Attack Cancel    Yuri's standing B > Shiyoku
   Special Move Cancel      Benimaru's Iai Geri > Handou Sandan Geri
                            or Yamazaki's Suna Kake > Hebi Tsukai
   Super Cancel             Shen Woo's Geki Ken > Zetsu! Geki Ken

 Duo Lon's example may surprise you, but yes, it is a cancel--most
 characters can cancel the recovery animation of weak attacks into
 other weak attacks (listed as an "r" in each character's cancelable
 attack chart).

 Combos
 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
 The other situation occurs if you combo two moves together without
 using cancels, such as in these examples:

   Juggles                  Duo Lon's (D) Naiga > jumping B
   Combos                   Ryo's jumping D > standing A
   Chains                   Shen Woo's standing C > far standing B
                            or Ash's Floreal > Pluviose

 Note that damage scaling occurs each time a new move is canceled or
 comboed into.  Look at this combo for Shen Woo:

    standing close C > Fusen Kyaku > (A) Gekiken > (C) Zetsu! GekiKen

 After the standing C, each attack has it's damage scaled, since it
 is being canceled into from the previous move.  However, all of these
 moves hit once.  What about multi-hit moves?  Well, they are an
 exception to the rule.  The first hit of a multi-hit move does less
 damage, as you would expect.  However, all subsequent hits cause normal
 damage.  For example, if you combo into Shingo's Rouka Guruma, damage
 for the first hit is scaled.  However, all remaining hits do their
 normal amount of damage.

 Damage scaling does not affect most kinds of throws.  For example, you
 can cancel into Ash's Vendemiaire or Griffon's Justice Hurricane, and
 the damage is the same as if you hadn't canceled at all.  However, some
 throws (like Shingo's Nie Togi) will be scaled if comboed into.  It
 was also noticed that moves that don't involve the combo counter also
 seem to avoid scaling.  An example would be Shen Woo's Kohyou Rengeki.
 It's not a throw (it can be blocked), but it does the same amount of
 damage whether you combo into it or not, and the combo counter only
 indicates a 2-hit combo when you combo into it.

 Finally, the degree of scaling depends on the moves used.  Some, like
 Robert's Haou Shoukou Ken, do much less damage when canceled into.
 Others, like Shingo's Kake Hourin, do almost the same amount whether
 you cancel into them or not.


 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
 DOWN
 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
 During a team battle, when a team member is killed, the message DOWN
 appears, and the next teammate jumps in from the side of the screen.
 They come in pretty low to the ground (and you can control them once
 they land), but that means you can't really do anything while coming
 in.  It seems like it would be possible to set up an incoming opponent
 for an attack they couldn't avoid that way.

 Actually, Tel has just told me that you can use command throws (even
 the D^ or L^ variety) on an incoming character following a DOWN, and
 they can't do anything about it.  Ouch.


 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
 GUARD CRUSH
 ------------------------------------------------------------------------

 If you block too many attacks within a certain period of time, you will
 be Guard Crushed.  When this occurs, your character assumes a sort of
 stunned pose momentarily.  This leaves them open to attack if you
 recover fast enough, or if your attack is a multi-hit move, or if you
 cancel out of it.  As an example, if Kyo's close C was used to GC an
 opponent, it could be canceled into the Aragami and would result in
 a combo.

 To avoid getting Guard Crushed, just try not to block so often.  After
 you are GC'd, your chance of getting Guard Crushed reverts to normal, so
 you don't have to worry about getting GC'd repeatedly once it happens
 the first time.

 Some attacks have more Guard Crush potential than others.  These moves
 are said to do heavy "Guard Crush damage."  As example, even though it
 might take sixteen or so blocked attacks to result in a GC, Jhun's
 Ko Ressou can GC you in only two or three uses.


 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
 KNOCKDOWNS
 ------------------------------------------------------------------------

 Some attacks will knock a hit opponent to the floor.  There are several
 types of knockdown attacks:

    Normal - A hit opponent is knocked away and they hit the floor.
             (e.g. Terry's Burn Knuckle)
    Spin   - A hit opponent spins and flies backward further than usual.
             (e.g. Shen Woo's charged (C) Gekiken)
    Slump  - A hit opponent slumps to the floor right where they are.
             (e.g. Hinako's Yorigiri).
    Sudden - A character is quickly slammed straight down to the floor.
             (e.g. last hit of Robert's Hien Senpuu Kyaku).
    Wire   - A character bounces off the wall and flies backward.
             (e.g. Hinako's Morote Zuki).

 "Normal" knockdowns can usually be avoided by using the Down Evade
 (sometimes called the AB recover).  This is used by pressing AB right
 before you hit the ground.  Your falling character then does some
 sort of move to land on their feet, like a roll or handspring.

 Other knockdowns can also be escaped from, excluding the "slump" and
 "sudden" knockdowns.


 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
 OVERHEADS
 ------------------------------------------------------------------------

 Most standing attacks can be blocked high or low--in other words, when
 standing or crouching.  However, some attacks can only be blocked high,
 even though they look like they could be blocked low.  These are called
 "overhead" attacks.  An example might be Joe's Bakuretsu Elbow.  It
 looks like a standing elbow attack, but if you block low, you will get
 hit.

 In general, if a command attack has an overhead property, it loses this
 ability if it is canceled into.  Therefore, Kyo's standing C canceled
 into Goufu You can be blocked low, because the Goufu You no longer has
 it's overhead ability.


 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
 POWER GAUGE
 ------------------------------------------------------------------------

 The Power Gauge is located at the bottom of the screen.  It starts off
 full (with three levels), but can be drained by using the following
 moves:

                - A super cancel          -1 level
                - D^ moves                -1 level
                - L^ moves                -2 levels
                - A Guard Cancel roll     -1 level
                - A Guard Cancel Attack   -1 level
                - A Change Attack         -1 level

 You can restore lost Power Gauge energy by blocking attacks, getting
 damaged by attacks, making attacks of your own, and having those
 attacks hit.  If your opponent taunts you, you will also earn Power
 Gauge energy.

 In Team Play, you will be able to hold an extra level for each teammate
 who is killed.  So you can hold 4 levels total when you have two members
 left, and 5 levels when only one character is left.


 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
 REVERSALS
 ------------------------------------------------------------------------

 Reversals are moves that can catch and "reverse" attacks.  An example
 is Billy's Suiryuu Tsuigeki Kon.  When used, he poses with his staff,
 and nothing happens.  However, if his staff is hit with a particular
 attack (high, mid-level, or low attacks), he will make an attack in
 response.

 Reversals are particular in that they only "reverse" certain types of
 attacks.  These include:

      Jumping       Any jumping attack.
      High          Attacks that hit the head or chest.
      Middle        Attacks that hit the waist or knees.
      Low           Attacks that hit the shin or foot.
      Special       Any special move, D^, or L^ move.

 The "special" type superceeds all other types.  So even though the
 1st hit of Kim's Ryuusei Raku hits low, the M. Reverse Facelock will
 still reverse it, because it is a special move.  It doesn't matter
 that the Facelock doesn't normally catch low attacks.  So when you're
 using a reversal, remember that if it can stop special moves, D^, or
 L^ moves, it will do this regardless of whether the move hits high
 or low, etc.

 Some reversals can be super-canceled if triggered, like the Sadomazo.
           

 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
 ROLLING
 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
         
 The rolling moves (otherwise refered to as the "Emergency Evade") can
 be used by themselves, or while blocking an attack.  You are immune to
 attack as the roll begins, but you can be attacked while recovering
 from the roll (before you have a chance to block).  Throws of any kind
 can grab you out of a roll at anytime.

 Normally, jumping over an enemy makes them turn around, even if they
 are performing an automatic action (like running).  However, it's
 possible to roll through an enemy and have them continue to run into
 the corner (seems to work best against big characters like Chang or
 Maxima).  This can allow for some unique combo setups.


 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
 SUPER CANCELS
 ------------------------------------------------------------------------

 Super cancels occur when you cancel a move directly into a D^ or L^
 move.  There are several types of super cancels:

  - Special Move SCs
    These cost one additional level to perform, so it takes 2 levels
    to cancel into a D^ move, or 3 to cancel into an L^ move.  An
    example might be Shingo's Aragami into Kake Hourin.  The message
    S.CANCEL appears when you use this type of SC.

  - Command Attack SCs
    These cost no levels to use.  An example includes Jhun's Ryuurou
    Kyaku into Hou'ou Hiten Kyaku, or the 3rd hit of Griffon's Joudan
    Yoke Kougeki into Dadaleus Attack.

  - Normal Attack SCs
    These cost no levels to use.  An example would be Hinako's far
    standing (C) into Ooichiban or Kim's jumping (A) into Hou'ou Kyaku.

 You can simplify commands when supercanceling into them.  Look at
 these examples:

   (C) Kohou > Tenchi Haou Ken                  f,d,df + C > qcf + AC
   Shinkuu Katategoma > Gen'ei Hurricane        qcb + K > qcb + K
   (C) Ryuu Enbu > Chou Hissatsu Shinobi Bachi  qcb + P > hcf + K
   
 In each example, the command for the D^ or L^ move is combined with
 that of the special move, so you don't have to try to do something
 as clunky as (qcf + P > qcb,hcf + K) for Mai's example.  It's a lot
 easier to do SCs if you figure out the simplified motions first.


 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
 THROWS
 ------------------------------------------------------------------------

 Throws are unblockable attacks.  Every character has a basic throw
 performed by pressing (b / f + C / D) when close.  In 2003, everyone
 has only one throw, and the button used determines whether you throw
 your opponent in front of you or behind you.  In most cases, C is in
 front of you, but this doesn't apply to everyone.

 You can escape from a basic throw by pressing (b / f + C / D) when
 grabbed, but you must use the same button to escape, or you will
 be thrown.  In other words, if Ralf grabs you with (f + C), you must
 use (b / f + C) to escape.  Special throws, like the Vendemiare or
 Big Fall Griffon, cannot be escaped from.

 Clark's Mount Tackle can be escaped from if he attempts a follow-up
 and you press the same button (i.e., he does d,d + A, and you press
 A), but this is a special exception.  You will also automatically
 escape from Hinako's Gaburi Yori unless she attempts a follow-up.
           

 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
 MISC. NOTES
 ------------------------------------------------------------------------

 [ BUTTON CANCELS ]  ----------------------------------------------------

 In previous games, you could cancel any Punch or Kick into a "button-
 press" move, even if they weren't cancelable.  However, that is no
 longer the case.  An obvious drawback to this would be Shen Woo's
 Bakushin, since his standing C won't cancel into the move, preventing
 it from coming out unless you mess with the button-press timing or
 do something else and input the move during that time.

 [ ROULETTE ]  ----------------------------------------------------------

 This year, the Roulette feature (that ! box in the middle of the screen)
 only gives you a random character once.  It won't change the character
 after every battle, as in previous games.

 [ JOYSTICK COMMANDS ]  -------------------------------------------------

 A contributor noted that half-circle motions are more difficult to do
 in this game.  I haven't noticed that myself, but it could very well be
 the case.

 Also, the infamous "shortcut" command for moves like the Hou'ou Kyaku
 and Power Geyser (perform qcb,db,f as d,b,f) has finally been omitted.


 ========================================================================
 5.  SECRETS AND TRICKS
 ========================================================================

 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
 UNBLOCKABLE MOVES
 ------------------------------------------------------------------------

  - Athena's old unblockable Psycho Ball bug has returned.  Knock your
    opponent down (f + AC woks well), throw an (A) Psycho Ball, then
    use the Psycho Teleport as your opponent gets up.  They will not
    be able to block the Psycho Ball.
  - The same trick works for K'--knock your opponent down, perform an
    Eins Trigger, and cancel it into the Blackout (b + K) as your foe
    gets up.  The Eins Trigger will become unblockable.
  - And Maki's crouching C is unblockable, if a character is not already
    in blockstun from a previous attack.


 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
 PLAY AS KUSANAGI OR CHIZURU
 ------------------------------------------------------------------------

 To select Kusanagi, input (qcb,ub,hcf,uf + any button) when on the Team
 Select Screen.

 To select Chizuru, input (u,ub,hcf,uf,f,df,d,db + any button) when on
 the Team Select Screen.

 In both cases, you need to do the motions smoothly--don't bother with
 entering it precisely.  Just pretend that you're inputting a special
 move and not tapping in a code.

 I don't know if you have to reverse the code if you're on the 2P side.
 If it's anything like SVC, then the answer is "no."


 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
 PLAY AS A BOSS CHARACTER (BIOS)
 ------------------------------------------------------------------------

 If you have the debug bios, you can select the bosses simply by going to
 any member of the K' Team and pressing down once or twice (or pressing
 up on the Hero Team once or twice).  This will select the "boxes" where
 the bosses are.

 Also, if you have the debug bios, you can access the Practice Menu
 in Practice Mode by pressing the "next game" button.

 I don't know where the debug bios is, how to get it, or how to install
 it, so please don't ask.


 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
 PLAY AS A BOSS CHARACTER (CHEATS)
 ------------------------------------------------------------------------

 Only Kusanagi and Chizuru are playable with a controller code.  To use
 the other boss characters, try using these MAME cheats; just add them
 into your "cheat.dat" text.  All codes created by Charles MacDonald.
 
 ; [ King of Fighters 2003 ]
 kof2003:0:107D0C:22:000:Play with Adelheid
 kof2003:0:107D0C:23:000:Play with Mukai
 kof2003:0:107D0C:24:000:Play with Maki
 kof2003:0:1044C0:05:000:Cursor Select

 If you turn on one of these codes before starting to play, you will
 automatically use that character, bypassing the Character Select
 screen (this means you play as a single entry even in Team mode).
 However, this will cause glitches in either "Practice" mode.  To
 get around this, wait until you are at the Team Select screen before
 turning on the code, then pick any character.

 If you pick your first two characters, then turn on the code and pick
 your remaining characters, you can still use the "Order Select" to
 make Mukai or Adelheid your 2nd or 3rd player.  Doing this also allows
 them to use the "Change" and "Change Attack" freely (normally, when
 they are first, they cannot use these moves).  What's more, even
 though they are not the lead character, they can still use their L^
 moves, if they have enough stocks (though nobody else can, just as
 if they were the real team leader).

 The fourth code only works in Team Play mode.  It places your cursor
 over Chizuru.  To select other characters, turn the code on, then
 disable it.  You can now select the other characters like so:

                (pressing up takes you to the K' Team)
                Kusanagi        Adel            Mukai
                Chizuru         Maki            Random Select
                (pressing down takes you to the Hero Team)

 So, if you wanted to play as Adel, you would move your cursor up once
 and left once, then press any button.  Maki, Adel, and Mukai don't
 have portraits in this menu, so keep the above diagram in mind when
 trying to select a boss character.

 If you select Adel or Mukai first, you will only choose them.  If
 you pick one or two teammates first, then them, you will be able to
 use them in your team, and they can even use the Change and Change
 Attack moves (which they can't use normally).  However, they will
 not be able to use their L^ moves, obviously.

 Some of you may remember a picture released by Billy Jr. showing what
 appeared to be a hidden character with Malin's face portrait.  In
 fact, if you put your cursor to the same spot, you'll find that it's
 just another Random Select box, which explains how the picture was
 made.  In fact, there are no other characters beyond those available
 normally and the above five characters (so you can't play with Rose,
 for example).


 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
 GAME PROGRESSION
 ------------------------------------------------------------------------

 The game progresses in this order:

  Stage 1 - 3 > Kusanagi > Stage 5-6 > Adel
  Stage 1 - 3 > Kusanagi > Stage 5-6 > Chizuru & Maki > Mukai

 Which boss set you fight depends on how you finish Kusanagi:
                                                    
  - If you kill him with a Punch or Kick, a normal throw, a command
    attack, a special move, or the 2nd (incoming) hit of a Change
    Attack, or if you win by Time Over, you will fight Adel.
  - If you kill Kusanagi with a D^ or L^ move, or the first hit of a
    Change Attack, you will fight Chizuru / Maki / Mukai.
  - Tel points out that if you are hit out of a D^ move that still
    kills Kusanagi, you end up fighting Adel.

 I could swear that I used a special move to kill Kusanagi and still
 fought Mukai once.  Maybe there are other factors?


 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
 DEMO LIST
 ------------------------------------------------------------------------

 For the curious, "Garou Aku" refers to the evil characters from the
 Fatal Fury series, and "3 Jingi" refers to the "Three Divine Weapons"
 Team from KoF '97.  I'm not sure about the name "Heidi."  It could be
 a play on the name "Adelheid," or it could have been Rose's original
 name, for instance.  There wasn't any "Heidi" character selectable
 through codes, so I don't think it's alluding to another character
 (especially given the fact that the "Heidi" demos are for Adel and
 Rose).

 ENDINGS
 ------------------------------------------------------------------------

 For some brief summaries of the endings, see below:

 Hero Team
 - The team gets transported to the wilderness.  Shen is really angry
   that Mukai and his friends got away, and goes off to find them.
   Ash asks Duo Lon to hang around, but Duo Lon senses Ron's presence
   (the striker ninja from 2001) and teleports away to find him.  Ash
   then comments that now is the time to put the finishing touches on
   his scheme.

 Garou Team
 - The threesome find themselves back in the KOF arena, where Andy is
   watching them from the crowd (which contains, among others, Rock
   Howard, and a Franco Bash lookalike).  Suddenly, a railing breaks
   and three fans start falling.  The heroes rush to rescue them;
   Griffon saves a kid, of course.  Joe tries to rescue a lady, but
   Terry saves her instead, and she of course wants to date him.
   Joe ends up resucing a lipstick-wearing guy who gets a little too
   friendly with him.
 - A contributor points out "...pretty sure that's Hon-Fu standing to
   the left of Andy in the background of the shot where you see Rock
   and Franco Bash.  The guy holding a camcorder to the left of Hon-Fu
   looks like Bob Wilson, and the guy with the spiky hair COULD be Duck
   King, though I'm not sure about that."

 Kyokugen Team
 - Takuma gets beat up by unknown assailant (who he recognizes but
   never gets around to identifying).  The team comes home to
   find him lying on the floor.  He's alive, but needs medical
   attention.  As an ambulance takes him away, his students swear
   revenge.  Their first serious ending in a while, though Robert
   gets a small joke in about the AOF team being too poor to rob.

 Korea Team
 - Kim swears to fight off any evil, and Jhun and Chang agree that
   the three of them are unstoppable.  They walk off into the sunset,
   forgetting all about Choi, who is watching them from afar and
   wondering why they're leaving him behind.

 Ikari Team
 - leona goes into Orochi mode again; Ralf and Clark try to beat her
   out of it, but she roughs them up instead--but reverts to normal
   in the end, and everyone is okay.  Leona wonders why her berserk
   power has become so overwhelming all of a sudden.

 Outlaw Team
 - Yamazaki's Orochi blood kicks up and he tries to attack his
   teammates.  naturally, Billy wants revenge.  Gato has no interest
   in either of them and leaves.  Yamazaki tries to do his repeated
   snake arm on billy, who counters with a Chou Kaen Senpuu Kon.

 Women's Team
  - It seems as if Andy has come to Mai's rescue.  He tells her that
    her teammates have died, but he wants to marry her.  Mai is sure
    that they are celebrating for her in that "big KOF in the sky."
    Mary wakes up to find Anton watching her.  It turns out that Mai
    was just knocked out and is dreaming, but King doesn't want to
    wake her up, since she seems so happy, even though Andy's
    "advances" are really just the result of Anton licking Mai's
    face.

 Benimaru Team
  - Beni and Goro congratulate Shingo on doing well in the tournament.
    However, Shingo takes their praise a little seriously and starts
    talking about how he should stop sucking up to Kyo.  However,
    while he's dismissing Kyo, who but his old master should show up
    from behind and decide to "re-educate" the overconfident Shingo
    with some of his special moves.  Shingo asks anybody for help
    ("even Yagami"), but Benimaru and Goro figure Shingo will always
    be Shingo and decide not to intervene.

 Schoolgirls Team
  - After the KOF tournament, it turns out Athena will be late for one
    of her concerts.  Hinako promises to handle any outraged fans, and
    does so by offering to "sumo" with them.  The audience, after a
    few moments, goes totally wild ("Be my yokozuna, baby!" was a
    good line).  Athena realizes Malin and Hinako are a hit with the
    crowd, but wants to make sure they don't forget who the star is.

 K' Team
  - The trio find themselves in the wilderness (as is par course in
    most kof games).  Whip calls home to check on her "little sister"
    and chats with Diana, who tells her that Kula is interested in
    the next KOF.  K' seems to lose control of his powers for a moment
    and his glove bursts into flame.  He plays it off as no big deal,
    but the image of Mukai comes to his mind.

 3 Divine Weapons Team
  - Kyo and Iori find themselves before the seal of Orochi.  A wounded
    Chizuru shows up, only to be attacked from behind by Ash, who pulls
    Chizuru's "mirror" power from her chest and tosses her aside.  Kyo
    catches her.  Ash wants Iori to be his servant, which provokes Iori
    into attacking with a Yamibarai.  Ash avoids the attack and leaves,
    promising to return later.  Kyo wants more than ever to find out
    what's going on, and says he's "really pissed" as his fist bursts
    into flame.

 94 Women's Team
  - Gives you the Single Play "Orochi" ending, but after the staff roll,
    a picture of King, Mai, and Yuri shown.  Mai is holding a fan that
    congratulates you on your victory.
    
 94 Japan Team
  - Gives you the Single Play "Orochi" ending, but after the staff roll,
    a picture of Kyo, Benimaru, and Goro is shown.

 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
 SPECIAL INTROS
 ------------------------------------------------------------------------

 The following intros occur when these characters fight each other first.
 My conversational Japanese is virtually non-existant, so all spellings
 and translations are liable to have errors.  

 Ash vs. Kyo / Iori / Chizuru
  - Ash stands, then holds out a hand while saying, "Sono chikara,
    misetemorau yo." (Show me that power [of yours]).

 Ash vs. Mukai
  - Ash brushes his hair with his hand and says, "Anta, mezawari da yo
    ne?" (So you have awakened?)
  - Wei Chen notes that this implies that Ash knows who Mukai is.

 Duo Lon vs. Benimaru
  - The two appear in opposite places.  Benimaru stands pensively
    with his hand to his face, then does a Gen'ei Hurricane punch.
    Duo Lon dodges it with a Lon-style warp (where he turns into
    a skeleton).  This leaves the two of them in their proper places
    to start off the battle.  Lon stays silent the entire time, but
    Beni says, "Koitsu!  Masaka....  NUUOOOO!  Chi-, yaharina."

 Shen Woo vs. Ash / Duolon / Terry / Griffon / Ryo / Robert /
              Kim / Iori / Kyo / Gato / K' / Adel / Mukai.
  - Stands with back to screen.  Clenches upraised hand into a fist.
    "Omai narananzoku desoba."

 Shen Woo vs. Chang / Billy / Yamazaki / Kusanagi
  - Stands with a hand in his pocket.  The other one is holding a
    little shape (looks like three balls in a triangluar pattern),
    that he plays with and then breaks, bits falling from his hand.
    Says, "Soikuzukusu nee!"

 Shen Woo vs. all others
  - Stands up straight and claps hands together.  Says, "Tanoshii
    mazete kure yo!" (Let's have fun mixing it up!)

 Terry vs. Mary
  - Terry fiddles for a while with his right glove, before adjusting
    his left one.  Meanwhile, Mary points at him while talking, then
    crosses her arms while facing the screen and winking.
  - I couldn't figure out what she was saying.  Raul Torrez wrote in
    and said it's "New duds and a new partner?  Aren't you the lucky
    one? ...I'll show you!"  He has the "Flame of Nova" guidebook
    for the game, so it's official.
  - Still, Mary's voice acting is awful, and "lucky" sounds a lot
    more like "wacky" to me.
                                        
 Ryo vs. Robert
  - Ryo and Robert stand with their arms at their side and say, "Osu!"

 Ryo vs. Yuri
  - Ryu does his "Osu!" pose, followed by Yuri.

 Robert vs. Yuri
  - Robert throws a bouquet of flowers at Yuri, but she turns the other
    way to tie her shoe and the flowers fly overhead.  Robert covers his
    face in exasperation and Yuri stands up and gives a nervous laugh.

 Kim vs. Ash / Iori / Kim / Billy / Yamazaki / Kusanagi / Adel / Mukai
  - Kim turns to look at his opponent.  He points at them as his eye
    begins to glow.  Then, Kim gets into his normal stance while saying,
    "Aku wa yurusan!"

 Kim vs. Jhun
  - Kim stands with his hand on his chin, while Jhun stands with one arm
    hanging down.  After Jhun finishes talking, Kim's teeth glint
    momentarily.

 Leona vs. Ralf / Clark / Whip / Chang
  - Leona salutes her opponent.

 Ralf vs. Leona / Clark / Whip
  - Ralf salutes his opponent while standing in a relaxed pose.

 Clark vs. Leona / Ralf / Whip
  - Clark tips his cap to his opponent.

 Whip vs. Leona / Ralf / Clark
  - Whip is facing away from her opponent, and she rocks on her heels
    for a moment before turning and saluting them.

 Iori vs. Kyo
  - Iori stands with his back to Kyo.  After Kyo talks, Iori responds,
    then turns to face his rival.

 King vs. Ryo
  - King bows with her hands folded together, while Ryo looks away and
    scratches his head in embarrassment.
 
 Athena vs. Kyokugen Team / Women's Team / Benimaru Team
  - Athena appears in a schoolgirl outfit with her two friends.

 Hinako vs. Chang
  - Hinako does her old sumo stomp.

 Malin vs. Mai
  - Malin is already in her outfit (no costume change), and she talks
    to Mai.

 Benimaru vs. Yuri / Leona / King / Mai / Mary / Athena / Hinako /
              Malin / Whip / Chizuru / Maki
  - Benimaru puts his hand to his forehead while talking, then smiles.
 
 Shingo vs. Kyo
  - Shingo points at himself while talking, then points at Kyo.

 K' vs. Kyo
  - K' slowly looks up at Kyo while talking.

 K' vs. Maxima / Whip
  - K stands with one arm tucked under the other, smiling at Maxima.
    He then talks for a bit.

 Maxima vs. K'
  - Maxima smacks a fist into his palm.

 Adelheid vs. Kyo
  - Adel says something to Kyo, instead of Rose talking first.

 Adelheid vs. Ash / Shen / K' / Iori
  - Adel says something to his foe, instead of Rose talking first.

 Mukai vs. Ash / Iori / Kyo / Chizuru
  - Mukai says, "Omoishiroi."
 

 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
 SPECIAL WIN POSES
 ------------------------------------------------------------------------

 These poses occur if you kill your last opponent using a certain
 character:

 Ash beats Iori / Kyo / Chizuru
  - Ash sighs, holds out an arm, then puts his hands on his hips.

 Ash beats Mukai
  - Ash creates some green bubbles in an upturned hand, then sweeps
    the bubbles across himself.
    
 Kyo beats Iori
  - Kyo takes off his jacket while talking to Yagami.

 Iori beats Kyo
  - Iori stands up and holds a hand across his chest while talking.

 Hinako beats Yuri / Leona / Womens' Team / Athena / Hinako / Whip
  - Hinako claps her hands together below her waist, wiggles back
    and forth a little, then brings her hands up to her face.

 There are also special win poses for Griffon and Shen that I haven't
 gotten around to fully checking just yet. ;)  Griffon has a special
 intro, too (he just says something different).

 Sans-Culottes                  Without Hoisery

 - Ash's move names are months of the French Revolutionary calendar,
   except for "Sans-Culottes," which was the name of the French common
   folk (who wore trousers instead of the knee pants of the aristocracy,
   hence the name).
 - At least, that's what I thought.  However, MGohan had this to say
   about the Sans-Culottes:

   "...you see each Revolutionary month was 30 days long and there were
   12 months, 30 * 12 = 360, so 5/6 days were leftover, those five/six
   days were dedicated to the Revolutionaries and each one was given a
   title:
 
        1               jour de la vertu        virtue day
        2               jour du génie           genius day
        3               jour du labour          labour day
        4               jour de la raison       reason day
        5               jour de la recompense   reward day
        6               jour de la révolution   revolution day
 
   "The those days together were named as the Sans-Culottides, regarding,
   of course, the Revolutionaries who were "the sans-culottes" (without
   underwear) also known as the poor (the poor people didn't wear those)"

 - "himorogi" is defined as "a temporary shrine structure," specifically,
   a "plot of unpolluted land where a sacred seat is placed surrounded by
   evergreen trees."
 - "iwasaka" is defined as "a place where a deity is worshipped in the
   open (specifically, "an unpolluted plot of landed surrounded by
   stones.")
 - Maki's move names seem to be based on aspects of Shinto, which is
   why trying to translate them is so difficult ;P  If you have a
   suggestion on improving any of these, feel free to write in.

 [ ADELHEID BERNSTEIN ]  ------------------------------------------------
                                 
 Drucken                        Press
 G. Wand                        God Wall
 A. Kunst Zwei                  Adelheid Art Two
 A. Kunst Eins                  Adelheid Art One
 A. Kunst Vier                  Adelheid Art Four
 G. Kicken                      God Kicking
 G. Springen                    God Leaping
 G. Drucken                     God Press
 G. Kreis                       God (Genocide?) Circle
 G. Sklaven                     God Slaves

 - You've probably noticed there is no "Adel Art Three."
 - "kreis" can also mean "ring."
 - Also, in German, "adel" means "noble", and "bernstein" means "amber."
   I don't know about "adelheid" taken as a whole, maybe "heid" is
   supposed to be "eid" (oath)?
 - It's an assumption that "A" stands for "Adel" and "G" for "God", but
   Rugal had "G" moves that meant "God" in CvS2, so it seems like a safe
   bet.

 - Mukai has the same spelling for some of his moves, so I've included
   brief descriptions so you know which one is which.
 
 Thanks for reading.
