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

4. Misc. and Easter Eggs
===============================================================================
Changing Character's Skin Tone
------------------------------
When selecting your character hold down the button you are using to pick
their costume color. While holding this button move the joystick either to
the right or to the left. While continuing to hold the direction on the
joystick release the button you were holding. You will now have a different
skin tone for the match.
Dizzy icons
-----------
Every character in the game has a unique dizzy icon above their heads. These
are listed below.
Shishin - Blue Dragons
Rinchuu - Jaguars
Kosanjyou - Suns and Moons
Taisou - Doves
Riki - Sake Gourds
Rochishin - Cherry Blossoms
Kousonsyou - Turtles
Bushou - Tigers
Gen Shouji - Fish
Gen Shougo - Frogs
Gen Shoushichi - Ducks
Chougai - Person Holding Pink Snake?
Sprite Differences
------------------
An odd but unique feature in this game is that mirror matches feature the
two characters having different idle stances. A nice attention to detail.
