(haisenrenshou)


The Palm Catching

       A high kick then a roundhouse

Greatly in debt to YAMAZAKI Shinji ([email protected]) and
Gamest Act 0.5, which I still don't have in completion.


As you noticed, I didn't clean this up much.  Since I'm going to
revamp all the move lists anyhow, I'll just crank out a rough copy.
By the end of this week, you can see the finished copy at
