==============================================
2 STANDARD MOVES
==============================================
Impact Defence b + L\R
==============================================
The character defend himself with the body.
Meanwhile the fighter still in this position
his KI Gauce charging slowly and every
opponent's attack increase it more.
Unlike the normal block, the fighter lose a few
energy versus all opponent's attack.
DASH f,f
==============================================
With a double tap in opponent's direction the
fighter does a frontal dash.
BACKHOP b,b
==============================================
With a double tap back, the fighter make a fast
retreat jump.
COUNTER b + A\B\X\Y
==============================================
This is a fast move to evade the opponent's
attack and counter it.
POWER ATTACK charge A\B\X\Y
==============================================
Charge any attack button for a while and release
it when you're ready to hit. This attack consume
the KI gauce until 1/2.
CATCH
==============================================
When you make a cath, you're invulnerable and
you can brake all moves and all status (like
impact defence) but you must be near the
opponent to did it.
==============================================
3 SPECIAL MOVES
==============================================
These are particoular direction and button's
combination that used the fighter's personal
powers. These are different for all fighter.

Unlike the classic fighting games, here, there's
not the 3 rounds style. In Ossu! Karate-Bu You

to rejuvernate your fighter's energy.
If your opponent finish you using a Super move,
the return in fight cannot be do.

< 6 - AUTHOR'S NOTES >
\__________________________________________/
I've made this FAQ because this is a fighting game
full of carisma and with a good gameplay and I love
the fighting game... I've seen there's not a FAQ on
the web of this game and i've made it.
I have not read the manga and I don't know the
characters but I've appreciate a lot the game's and
character's atmosphere.
What this FAQ need:
1) Characters info
2) Move's names
3) Moves that I've not found
4) Various...
Help me to complete and correct this FAQ. Thanks.
