Deflect Explaination

The New D button Deflect is similar to the sword reflecting counter in
Samurai Shodown 2, where if the player deflects the opponent's attack, the
opponent will be stunned for a short moment. On the other hand if the
player misses the deflect, there will be enough time for the opponent to make
an attack. [ Above quoted from MM Cafe *see credits section]

D or fw+D To deflect upper normal attack
dn+D or fwdn+D To deflect lower normal attack
fw+D To deflect upper special attack
fwdn+D To deflect lower special attack

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Storyline
The two worlds which existed from ancient times, the human world and the
Under world.
These two distant worlds have been connected from the past by the Gate of
Hell, guarded by four deities who must always stay in the shadows of
history.
As time passed and 200 years from the reign of the Tokugawa Government,
people began to fear as their shallow world of peace quickly faded away
with the rumors of the resurrecting Demon. The long peace which had taken
place not only pressed greater fear amongst the people but also took away
the swords and samurais, leaving almost no hope.
But not all hope was lost. There were still those with hope and hearts of
fire.
...And there were those with lust for the Demon.
Thus the last of the fighters began their journey, to learn and finish
whatever destiny awaited for them.

時代を継ぐ少年　楓　 Kaede "Shining Soul"

confidence.

Storyline:
Found and brought up by a swordsman, Kaede grew up with Moria and Yuki,
both of whom were as good as family to him. Having mysterious powers, it

At the age of 12, upon returning from an errand Kaede and Yuki found Moria
standing in front of the corpse of their teacher, the swordsman.
Kaede who respected Moria for his Swordmanship but more as a brother,
quickly saw his world crash behind him and attacked Moria. Moria did not
even try to dodge and was slashed, then left the Dojo behind without a word
.
Five years later, Kaede decides travels to learn the truth to what had
happened that day by seeking out for Moria, and getting revenge for his
adopted father.

long for the group to figure out his true reason of joining, and Shikyoh
escaped before they could prosecute him.

Storyline:
The Gate of hell and the rumor of the Demon's resurrection did nothing to
Shikyoh but make him want to kill even more. But for Shikyoh it meant
nothing to kill commoners; what he really wanted to massacre were a preys
that fought back well so that it would satisfy his quench for good blood.
When a mysterious man appeared in front of Shikyoh and told him that there
were prey to be found, it was eminent for Shikyoh to accept the offer.

quickly becoming the thing of the past, Zantetsu tries to prove that ninjas
are the ultimate warriors.

Storyline:
"There is no one stronger than I. No, there cannot exist such a thing..."
His voice faded into the darkness just like himself, and where he stood
there was another corpse. The fighter who foolishly considered himself to
be the strongest was no stronger than a new born baby in the hands of
Zantetsu.
"No, this doesn't prove my strength at all..."
In other words his present action was just a "normal murder", not a
challenge to the death.
As Zantetsu searches for a proof of his strength, he hears to rumors of the
Demon's resection and travels to find the Demon, hoping that its death will
be the final proof of invincibility.

even defeat Okina.
But one day, Kaede decides to journey away. Okina was not stupid enough to

Storyline:
A roar of vulgar shaked the air as Shigen's seal was broken since 10 years.
For ten years he could not move a single finger, and he finally stood up.
Shigen felt his muscle powered up more than twice before he was sealed, and
his muscle burst in anger. Inside his anger and pain, Shigen's control over
himself was of no more. The only thing left in his mind was revenge towards
a name... a name that echoed in his head all ten years.
