Tiny shoto child #1. Chonrei sports good fireballs, zippy movement, reliable combos, good anti-airs, a supremely dumb jumping normal in his j.C, and the ability to low profile all sorts of stuff. You've probably guessed that Chonrei mostly wants to chuck fireballs and anti-air people for trying to jump over them, and you'd be right. He can also just roll right under them and get a guaranteed punish courtesy of his Transcendent Dragon rolls. These rolls, amazingly, enable him to get around some higher-hitting Breakshots and generally annoy people for trying to hit him. But none of this makes up for his lack of any sort of real overhead threat. He can tick throw better than most people, but if he doesn't have the life lead or his opponent can contest his zoning, he starts to struggle. But his overall toolkit is solid, so he's still great for shoto players looking for a slightly different flavor to their usual archetype.

Pros
Cons
Some of the quickest ground movement in the game
Great basic shoto tools
S-Power lets him cut off huge swathes of screen space
Transcendent Dragon rolls enable low profile punishes and tick throws

The main differece here is that Chonrei goes way farther forward and has significantly shorter recovery. Sadly no matter which version you use your pressure is limited by being left at minus frames on hit. It's still a good tool to represent at midrange and try to bully your opponent out of your space. Or just to move around and get under their jump.

The slow startup prevents this from being useful for any real purpose other than hard read midrange anti-airs. And it's not even very good at that.
