 HOW TO READ THE COMBOS
===============================================================================

This is the format that all combos are listed in for this FAQ:


   o--- A    o--- B       o--- C      o--- D
  /         /            /           /           o--- E
11  ::  3000 dmg  ::  14 hit  ::  shouji        /
    Opponent in corner. j.HK \/ s.LP > s.LK > s.MP XX Honda Ranbu
    (Jump HK \/ s.LP > s.LK > s.MP XX d,f,df + KK)
                   \
                    o--- F


A  --  Combo Number
       The number of the combo. All the combos are listed in descending order
       by the amount of damage it does. The strongest combos are at the top
       and go down to the weaker ones. (If two combos share the same damage,
       they are then ordered by the amount of hits.)

B  --  Combo Damage
       The amount of damage the combo does. The total amount of energy in a
       meter is 10000 points. So the above combo is 3000 points (30%). Damage
       counts are based on the characters that take neutral damage (Kumiko
       Gotou.)
       Damage in `Sokkou Seitokai´ is also effected by the level of difficulty
       the game is set at. On "EASY" characters do about 100-300 more damage,
       while on "EXPERT" they do about 200-400 less damage. All damage is
       based on the game set at "NORMAL" difficulty.

C  --  Hit Counter / Combometer
       The number of hits the combo will do.

D  --  Source / Acknowledgment
       If the combo wasn`t created by me, credit is listed here where the
       source was from. A person`s name, magazine, or even gamertags (in
       addition to the forum) can be used here.

E  --  The Combo
       The full combo, from the first hit to the last. Buttons are denoted by
       the 6-button method: LP, MP and HP are the Punches, and LK, MK and HK
       are Kicks. Specific and signature moves are cited with their proper
       Japanese names (ie - Honda Taikuu, Kasumi Giri, etc.) and used within
       most of the combos.
       Some combos possess button-specific moves in them, such as a `MP Yuuko
       Slash´. The `MP´ means to use that strength button when doing the move.
       Thus, Charge b,f + MP. The use of a certain button can deal with things
       such as move principles and/or damage. Since Yuuko attacks differently
       with each Yuuko Slash, the MP version will offer the best overall
       results for that particular combo. There are other times where it
       doesn`t matter what strength button you use, like for this Naoko combo:
       d.HK XX Kasumi Giri. If you performed the Kasumi Giri with LP or HP,
       the combo would be exactly the same.
       Each combo listed in this FAQ was performed on Kumiko Gotou unless
       otherwise stated. If "large opponent" is read before the combo, a
       person such as Katou or Shibata was used.

F  --  The Shorthand Combo
       This is all the motions you have to do to pull off the combo that`s
       above it, but just written in shortened notation. Also useful if people
       don`t know the motion of a move by its name.


There is normally a bunch of notes at the end of the combo listings. Above a
note is the number pertaining to whichever combo(s) it`s for. The notes are
there to give insight on complex maneuvers, timing, or any aspects that may
prove to cause confusion.

[ Xtra ]
- Combo o1,o2
  The hardest part of these combos is to keep the cancels going. You want the
  opponent to fall kind of low near the ground before hitting them with the
  HP Honda Taikuu. Then immediately canceling into the Mega Honda Taikuu, to
  then immediately cancel _again_ into the Honda Ranbu, which is supposed to
  miss. It`s only use is to bridge the gaps between the Mega Honda Taikuu and
  HP Honda Taikuu.

- Combo o5,o8
  Only works on Akio Shibata, Kumiko Gotou, Mika Ii, (Kage) Naoko Hattori, or
  Tesshou Katou. On other characters, either the Honda Ranbu won`t hit or the
  opponent will fall behind the advancing Ai. The first Honda Ranbu is not
  supposed to hit, it`s only purpose is to Chou-Cancel out the Mega Honda
  Taikuu and get Ai in range for the second Honda Ranbu to connect. Do both
  Honda Ranbu in succession. Against Mika, the MP Honda Renda can hit 3 times.

- Combo 11,12
  Won`t work against Ai Honda or Uragiri no Ai.

- Combo 14
  Rapidly press HP as you do the Crouching HP to cancel into the Honda Renda.

- Combo 15
  Perform the j.HP as Ai is ascending.

- Combo 17
  You may have to be a couple steps away from the opponent before the LP Honda
  Taikuu.

- Combo 23
  Perform the HP Honda Taikuu when the opponent is close to hitting the ground
  so all three hits connect. Against Katou or Shibata, it can be done anytime.

- Combo o1,o2,o3,o4,o5,o6,o7
  Because the Hansha Laser Hou strikes in timed pulses, there can be odd times
  when Shibata is attacking the opponent during it that one of the attacks can
  hit them "wrong," which causes the opponent to be able to guard again. This
  mainly happens when Shibata`s physical attack causes less hitstun than what
  the Hansha Laser Hou would. (Combo o4 is a good example because of all the
  lighter attacks happening.) Typically this doesn`t happen often when Shibata
  is hitting them with Heavy attacks.

- Combo o1,o2,o3,o4,o5,o7
  You want to be close enough to jump at the opponent and hit them as high as
  possible after unleashing the Hansha Laser Hou. Be careful though! Shibata
  can end up behind the opponent, which then pushes the opponent back into the
  open to mess up the combo.

- Combo o1,1o
  The LP Hadou Bakurai and LP Hadou Hou Ken virtually have to hit at the same
  time. Once Shibata executes the LP Hadou Bakurai, immediately do the LP
  Hadou Hou Ken so that the opponent lands on the blast and then gets struck
  by Shibata at the same time.

- Combo o1
  The way Shibata jumps in at Katou can differ if you can gauge the range, but
  Shibata`s j.HK has a very narrow hitbox. You don`t want to jump forward all
  the time because he can end up behind Katou on accident.

- Combo o2
  Shibata has to land close enough so he can then attack with the three s.HPs
  as the lasers are still striking. The third s.HP can be iffy to hit because
  the first two s.HPs push Shibata back slightly. His s.HP hitbox is large,
  but still only the very tip of Shibata`s fist may catch the opponent.

- Combo o5,o7
  Shibata`s s.MK does not naturally chain after s.MP, but perform them all in
  succession as if they did. The lasers hitting will keep the combo going.

- Combo o8
  Perform the Hadou Gekihou after the fourth laser hits the opponent for the
  maximum damage.

- Combo 16
  You have to choose which Hadou Bakurai to use depending on the locations of
  the opponent.

[ Xtra ]
- Combo o1
  This doesn`t work against everyone. The way this works is that the LP Ten
  Byou has to hit the opponent at the edge of their character frame. This
  causes the hits to connect and combo slower than how they normally would.
  Allowing time for Aya to jump and combo. She has to get Dainashi back right
  as she lands, else the s.LP > s.MK chain will not link.

- Combo o3
  Once the MP Ten Byou is let go, jump at the opponent and hit them with the
  j.HK. It will tag on just as the tenth hit of the MP Ten Byou is scored.
  After the first s.HP hits, go back to s.LP. The pen will catch the opponent
  while they are in stun and allow Aya to continue the combo.

- Combo o4
  This can be done against most medium- and large-sized characters. However on
  some opponents the last hit of the Ryuu Sen may not hit, which knocks them
  down.

- Combo o5,o8
  The Ten Byou scores its ten hits really fast. Wait a second after Aya gets
  back in her fighting stance, then start the rest of the combo. It must be
  timed so she has the pen back under her control before you hit s.MP.

- Combo o5
  On some opponents, the last hit of the Ryuu Sen that throws the opponent
  against the back wall may not connect.

- Combo o7
  On large opponents this can be done anywhere.

- Combo o8,13,16
  The s.HP can hit twice against large opponents.

- Combo o9
  Easier on a large opponent since the s.HP can hit twice and make it easier
  to cancel into the Ryuu Sen. Hard to be done against Mika.

- Combo 1o
  This can be hard to set up because Aya can`t do the Shuu Chuu Sen until she
  has control of Dainashi again. The forward dash helps get it back faster and
  put Aya closer to the launched opponent so both hits of the Shuu Chuu Sen
  will hit. Much easier if done in the corner. For an easier alternative,
  Aya`s j.HP does the same damage as the LP Maru Be Ta.

- Combo 11
  Immediately after the LP Geki Pen, do the HP Maru Be Ta. Dainashi will fly
  over just as the projectile hits, comboing in the Maru Be Ta to launch. You
  have to start tapping forward while the Maru Be Ta is going so Aya can start
  to dash and catch the opponent with the d.HK as they are falling.

[ Xtra ]
- Combo o1
  This combo only works against Ishida and Mika, two of the smaller characters
  in the game. Surprisingly it will not work on Rika, who is arguably the same
  size as Ishida. The way it works is that the Satsu Ma Kyuu: 1-gou actually
  catches the opponent after the s.HP launcher, right as they leave the ground
  to combo. Against anyone else the 1-gou will slide underneath the ascending
  opponent.

- Combo o3,o4,o6,1o
  The d.LK is a sliding move and causes Kumiko to stop dashing afterward, but
  each attack afterward will still combo.

- Combo o3,o6,o8
  You only have to take a small step forward after the first Satsu Ma Kyuu: 1-
  gou, just to be in range for Kumiko`s short-ranged s.LP. The second one will
  not catch the opponent; in fact, it doesn`t even do any damage to them!

- Combo o9,1o
  On large opponents this can be done anywhere.

- Combo o9
  Skip s.MK against Ishida or Mika.

- Combo 11
  This is more of a setup combo. The Satsu Ma Kyuu: 2-gou doesn`t add to the
  combo meter, but it is unlikely that it can be escaped since the opponent is
  in hitstun after the s.LP.

  Shibata have to be on one side of the screen because the combo carries them
  across to the other side. If they are too close or in the corner, the combo
  may break in the middle due to pushback against Mika. Mika`s s.HP causes -a
  lot- of stun, but only on crouching opponents. Allowing her to tag on a c.LP
  and continue the chain again. The s.MK is what makes the combo flow since
  Mika takes a step in to close the gap created.

- Combo o1,o2,o3,o5,1o,11
  Hesitate the Final Scramble for just a split second after the opponent is
  launched from the c.HK. If you Super Cancel immediately, it`ll actually do
  about 4-5% less damage. Time it so Mika`s first rotation catches them on
  their descent where it looks like it might miss, then it will do more. Only
  the first rotation of the Final Scramble hits; the other will miss, leaving
  Mika vulnerable when she lands.

- Combo o2
  This combo behaves slightly different against Katou than it does against
  Shibata. After the 16th hit, the loop of hits will uplift Katou and juggle
  him as he is rising. The s.LP pops him up, s.MK will juggle and s.HP will
  launch. Since Katou is already being lifted before the s.HP fully launches,
  you have to Super Cancel into the Final Scramble fast to make sure it hits.

- Combo o6
  This can be done against a crouching Shibata as well, and you do another
  (c.LP > s.MP > s.MK > s.HP) revolution before the Final Scramble, causing
  24 hit/8100 damage.

- Combo 1o
  This can be a very tricky and range dependent link combo. Mika has to hit
  with the j.HP -very- deep against Katou - literally right before she lands.
  Mainly because Mika`s c.MK is a somewhat slow attack, so the j.HP provides
  enough hitstun to allow Mika to catch with it. c.MK then links into s.LP,
  which goes into Mika`s basic Sonic Combo.

- Combo 11,12,13,15
  The s.LK is a really short ranged attack, so skip it if necessary. In the
  corner, you can add it against any character without a problem.

- Combo 15
  The Crazy Cat is not supposed to hit, so hit HK again for the Kidou Henkou
  to hit the falling opponent.

- Combo 16
  This can technically be done anywhere; depending on where the opponent is,
  us that specific Circus Metro.

[ Xtra ]
- Combo o1
  You want to have Naoko right next to Katou so that she tosses Gander-maru a
  distance away. The s.HK XX LP Kasumi Giri knocks him back into the spinning
  cat. It`s important to immediately start that first ground chain the moment
  after Naoko releases Gander-maru, because the timing is rather strict on the
  combo after Naoko switches sides. Katou should still be getting hit by
  Gander-maru while Naoko attacks with the first two s.LPs. You`ll know if you
  are doing it right if Katou slides backwards, as if vacuumed by the punches.
  After the second and third s.LP, you have to slightly tap forward on the
  joystick so Naoko does a half-step back into range to continue hitting Katou
  with s.LP, which leads into the final ground chain.

- Combo o2
  Like with Combo o1, you want to be next to Katou so Naoko places Gander-maru
  a distance away. However this is harder because Naoko has to jump straight
  vertical, then hit the j.HP just right before landing. That hit should knock
  Katou back into the cat, allowing the Naoko to land and catch with the LP
  Kasumi Giri. Now this is where it gets hard because the LP Kasumi Giri and
  the last hit from the Ninpou Ba Gu should connect about the same time, which
  places a _very_ tiny window for Naoko to recover and catch with the s.LP.

- Combo o3
  Either have the HK Ninpou Ba Gu land right on the opponent or just behind
  them so when you do the combo, they are knocked back into the spinning cat.

- Combo o4
  The Nin Neko Otoshi does not cause a lot of hitstun. Not only that, but the
  three hits are very fast. So you have a very small window to have Naoko jump
  after it and connect with the j.HK so it combos.

- Combo o5,o8
  The trick behind this combo is that you want to throw the HK Ninpou Ba Gu to
  spin just behind where the opponent is standing. Then when Naoko attacks, it
  knocks them back into the spinning cat to hold them while she performs the
  rest of the combo.

- Combo o7
  After throwing the MK Ninpou Ba Gu, jump over Katou to hit him with a cu.HK.
  This causes Katou to get vacuumed into the cat, taking the full six hits.
  And allowing time for Naoko to attack with the s.LP > s.LK, then repeat the
  chain combo.

[ Xtra ]
- Combo o1,o2,o3
  Against Katou (and sometimes Shibata), Rika`s d.HK after the Ankoku-shiki
  Circular Guillotine may pop him up in a way where he will just fall to the
  ground after the second kick. This obviously messes up the most damaging
  part of the juggle. To help avoid that, wait until Katou starts to descend a
  bit before re-launching them with the d.HK.

- Combo o1,1o
  Getting all seven hits of the Ankoku-shiki Drill is not easy against certain
  opponents. You want to catch them low after they have descended. Sometimes
  it`s best to have Rika dash in to get underneath them before doing it. Or
  better yet, have the opponent in the corner.

- Combo o2,o9
  Don`t start the Ankoku-shiki Punch Laser Special too early or the opponent
  won`t take the maximum nine hits from it. It`s a timing issue to perform it
  as the opponent is falling so they are directly in its path as it begins.

- Combo o3,11
  Reverse 'Tiger Knee' the Ankoku-shiki Flash.

- Combo o8
  The first Kyuukouka Geri should hit Katou around his legs. Then immediately
  do the Super Jump again, and do the next Kyuukouka Geri when Rika rises to
  about Katou`s head level.

- Combo 11
  There`s a very small window between the LP Ankoku-shiki Flash and HP Ankoku-
  shiki Drill where the two will combo. Rika has to do the Drill immediately
  upon landing.

- Combo 12
  This combo can be done against large opponents anywhere, but on anyone else
  it must be performed against a cornered opponent.

- Combo 13
  The Ankoku-shiki Star may not always combo (depending on the opponent). Best
  used in the corner so you can also add the s.MK for +400 damage.

- Combo o4
  Only the very edge of Katou`s first d.MK has to hit. Meaning Katou has to

  gets back into neutral. Allowing him to re-dash into his normal chain.

- Combo o9
  The s.HK causes a lot of hitstun and also vacuums the opponent over toward
  Katou so the rest of the combo can connect. Won`t work in the corner.

- Combo 1o
  Wait until the opponent falls parallel to Katou before juggling.

- Combo 14
  Katou`s dashing chain combo can be ended with either HP or HK, and they each
  do the same damage. However d.HP will send the opponent across the screen to
  cause wall slam, while the d.HK will knockdown by Katou`s feet.

    Uragiri no Ai in corner. Throw, HP Honda Taikuu
    (When close, f + MP/MK/HP/HK, f,d,df + HP)

[ Xtra ]
- Combo o1,o2,o6,o9,1o,12
  Cancel the Honda Taikuu into the Mega Honda Taikuu/Honda Tekkyuu/Honda
  Pochitto Na before Ai leaves the ground; respectively.

- Combo o1,o5,o6,o9,1o
  Uragiri no Ai`s d.HK is unique over normal Ai`s version because she can
  interrupt it before the second kick connects with a special attack. As soon
  as the first hit of the d.HK connects, motion for the Honda Taikuu and her
  attack animation will be interrupted as the uppercut is performed.

- Combo o3,15
  Rapidly press HP as you do the Standing/crouching HP to cancel into the
  Honda Renda.

- Combo o4
  You are able to do this out in the open, but it`s a bit more difficult than
  doing it against a cornered opponent.

- Combo 1o,13
  You don`t want to use the Honda Pochitto Na whenever Ai is near the corner,
  else the blast will instead hit her for 2000 damage!

- Combo 13,2o
  Perform the HP Honda Taikuu when the opponent is close to hitting the ground
  so all three hits connect. Against Katou or Shibata, it can be done anytime.

- Combo 16
  You may have to be a couple steps away from the opponent before the LP Honda
  Taikuu.

[ Xtra ]
- Combo o1,o2
  Like Mika`s combos against a crouching Katou, Ishida`s hits put him in a lot
  of hitstun to allow for a rather large infinite-like chain. Ishida`s s.HP
  causes Katou to reel for a while, allowing him to recover and immediately
  catch him with the d.LK, which then links into his Standing Lights.

- Combo o2,o3,o4,o6,11,14
  You can Chou-Cancel into the Zetsu Gou Rai Kyaku at anytime during the Chou
  Jigensen Tou Sai. Depending upon the opponent, you can have Ishida gather a
  different amount of hits before the cancel. Against large opponents, he can
  have the it go up to as much as the maximum 15 hits, while against Ai, only
  12 can work. If the Chou-Cancel is wrong, the Zetsu Gou Rai Kyaku will just
  collide with the opponent but it won`t execute for it`s full damage.

- Combo o4,o6,o8,1o
  The s.HP causes enough stun on the opponent to have Ishida add on the s.MK.
  Against Katou and Shibata, Ishida can add on the c.LK before the s.MK; while
  against smaller opponents like Kumiko, the c.LK may not reach so it`s best
  to skip that attack.

- Combo 1o,15
  When the Rai Sen Geki launches the opponent next to Ishida, Chou-Cancel into
  the Zetsu Gou Rai Kyaku before they start to fall. If done too late, the
  initial hit of Ishida`s dash will hit but the super won`t connect.

- Combo 16
  This is not an easy combo to pull off. Ishida has to hit Katou with the j.MK
  deep, like at his waist, before going into the Rai Jin Shuu. This is because
  you want to do the Rai Zan Kyaku as low as possible, so Ishida lands while
  Katou is still in hitstun. Giving him enough time to 'Tiger Knee' the second
  Rai Jin Shuu and repeat. I assume this could technically become an infinite.

[ Xtra ]
- Combo o1,o2,o3,o5,o6,o7,o9,1o,12
  Chou-Cancel into the Yuuko Melodious as the opponent is falling from the
  third hit of the Yuuko No Bomb. The best time to do it is when they are in
  the middle of the screen. Yuuko will then "magically" appear on the ground
  again to attack. Only two of the Yuuko Melodious hits will connect, so it
  should be noted that the opponent will recover way before Yuuko lands. You
  may want to just skip it in some scenarios, or have Yuuko land far away.

- Combo o2
  It`s -very- important to start charging down while Yuuko is hitting with her
  s.HP animation. Since Yuuko can "store" her charge for a half-second, she is
  able to stand and attack with the s.HP before canceling into the Yuuko No
  Bomb. Sometimes the first slash of the Yuuko No Bomb may not hit (causing
  -400 damage), but the remaining two will still connect.

- Combo o3
  This combo involves a lot of charging while other moves are going on. After
  releasing the LP Yuuko Slash, immediately hold down to charge for the Death
  Yuuko. Then as Yuuko is flying, start charging down again so that once she
  lands, she can immediately perform the Yuuko No Bomb.

- Combo o4,o8
  The Yuuko Intellectual pops the opponent into the air, but it`s not at an
  incredible height. But the time Yuuko lands and recovers, immediately juggle
  the opponent with her c.MK.

- Combo o5
  You want to time it so that the LP Yuuko Slash and the j.HP hit at the same
  time. That way the longer hitstun from the j.HP allows Yuuko to land and
  perform her dash combo.

- Combo 14
  Against Ai, Ishida, Mika, and Rika you must use a MP Yuuko Intellectual, or
  the second hit won`t hit.

- Combo 15
  Depending on the opponent and position, the HP Yuuko Intellectual may or may
  not knock the opponent down.

- Combo 17
  This can be done in the open, but the second hit of the HP Yuuko Slash may
  not connect depending on the opponent.

- Combo 18
  In the corner or against large opponents, the s.MK can be added for +300
  damage.

- Combo 2o
  Catch the descending opponent with Yuuko`s d.LP and chain into the d.MK. It
  will launch the opponent high into the air, allowing Yuuko enough time to
  charge the HP Yuuko Intellectual. Perform the HP Yuuko Intellectual when the
  opponent is close to hitting the ground so both hits connect.

[ Sonic 6 ]  ==================================================================
 REVISION HISTORY
===============================================================================

v. 4.o  //  2013.01.22
- It would be my luck that as soon as I upload this FAQ, I -do- run across a
  site which had a lot of amazing combos. So after taking a couple of hours
  going through them to test them all out, I added all of that goodness into
  this revision. 41 brand new combos, plus a lot of cleanup on errors I made.
  Interesting how many anti-Katou combos there are in this game.

v. 3.o  //  2013.01.08
- Finished up adding a few more combos for Ai Honda and Yasunori Ishida. There
  aren`t that many combo sites out there, so chances are this will be the last
  update unless I happen to make up some insane-ness in my spare time.

v. 2.o  //  2012.09.13
- Found a combo video on Nico Nico Douga that had some rather intense combos
  in it, so started to break those apart and added them into the FAQ. Probably
  the only combo video there is for this game.

v. 1.o  //  2012.07.03
- It`s been ten years! This is, yet again, another notch in my effort to go
  into all my old FAQs and revamp them. Yanno, because all those obscure games
  I wrote them for are incredibly popular! But seriously, this FAQ was never
  technically uploaded to GameFAQs, so I wanted to get it out there since this
  game has quite a number of fun and amazing combos in it.

v. o.o  //  2002.06.18
- The reason I separated the combos from the general move list was because I
  figured it might be a bit confusing with all that info mixed into one lump
  sum. So I says to myself, "Self, you need to do something about this!" And
  this is what I did. It`s not a large FAQ since the game has a very limited
  usage of combos (except with Mika), but it`s something to contribute. A lot
  of new combos for practically all the characters, including the hidden ones.


[ Sonic 7 ]  ==================================================================
 FINAL NOTE
===============================================================================

Oss`!
After a lot of thinking and tossing ideas back and forth, I just decided to
separate the FAQs into one for moves and general information, then the other
for the combos. Because of the game`s chain combo system, many of the combos
are not all that difficult to pull out. Some of the more complex ones are
still rather easy to execute after a few attempts.
