Story

Eiji is a ninja of the Kisaragi clan, respected among many. However, there is one family the Kisaragis have never been able to defeat, and that is the Sakazakis. With determination to make his clan proud, he joins the King of Fighters tournament in order to defeat the Sakazakis once and for all, and prove his clan is number one.

Introduction

Eiji is a very weak character with poor special moves and decent normals. His main gameplan is to force mistakes from the opponent and punish them using his very limited toolkit. His supers are basic, run-of-the-mill AOF2 supers that will give you some mileage, especially considering he barely uses the meter he gets.

Strengths	Weaknesses
fHK is a pretty good normal	Most of his normals range from mid to bad Specials range from bad to very bad Does very bad damage off stray hits Does well below average damage on even the biggest punishes No reversal No sweep + bad throw + bad combos = no knockdowns Stubby buttons aside from fHK Just kinda doesn't have anything going for him

Super plus normal. So plus, in fact, you can actually link into Low Attack for a combo that ends in kd. This is Eiji's only way of comboing into a kd, so savor it.

Standard poke. Decent damage but a bit sluggish. Eiji's fHP reaches slightly farther than a lot of fHPs, but not far enough for it to matter with how movement is in this game.

Eiji's best feature. Advancing plus on block normal that does a lot of damage, and the second hit is fast enough to link into Low Attack on hit for a kd. The two hits don't combo into each other, but the sequence is a natural 1f frametrap on hit and a true blockstring on block. Good poke.

It's seemingly not possible to get both hits of this normal to connect. At the height where the first hit connects vs a grounded opponent, Eiji lands before the second hit can connect. On air hit, both hits cause an air reset, preventing the first hit from comboing into the second. With this in mind, it's more like a very active air button that does 8 damage than a 2-hit button. It's not all that much more active than jLK, and it's a lot slower and a bit less damaging. Probably just stick to jLK.

Can be linked out of after some heavies for a knockdown, which is nice. Useful kd poke as well due to Eiji not having a traditional sweep.

Standard throw. You can dash up after and run whatever pressure Eiji has if they don’t tech. Unfortunately, the animation is really long, so they probably will tech on reaction.

Costs 20% Spirit. Cannot be special cancelled into. The active frames on this move are way earlier than you think; it starts being active right when he starts moving his hand and stops being active before the particles can leave his hand. With that being said, this is a slow, short-ranged, unsafe option with no real utility. Avoid. At low Spirit, this move no longer knocks down, the animation is sped up considerably, and the move does 8 damage. This is even more awful than the regular version.

26	Mid	No	12	19	9	-10	-14	-
Costs 20% Spirit. Cannot be special cancelled into. Not nearly as good as you remember it from KOF. Quite big, quite active, and pretty damaging poke, making it occasionally useful to just sorta do, since Eiji has so little else to spend meter on. Not all that helpful, though. At low Spirit, this move is much less active and deals 7 damage. Avoid using this move at low Spirit.

24	Mid	No	3	68	20	+7	+3	-
Costs 20% Spirit. Cannot be special cancelled into. Would be great combo filler but for some reason cannot be cancelled into. Due to this, plus its tiny hitbox, there's no point to this. In addition, this move has a unique property where, on hit or block, the animation will immediately cancel and go into recovery; this means the frame data is always consistent if the move connects, which also means you can't use this as a super plus on block meaty or anything. At low Spirit, this move deals 8 damage, has a faster animation, and loses the aforementioned consistent frame data property. This is just as bad as the real thing. Avoid.

26	Mid	No	5	24	7	0	-4	-
Costs 20% Spirit. Cannot be special cancelled into. Safe on block due to the pushback, but pretty unhelpful. After Eiji catches his target, the swing is pretty sluggish, making this move potentially reactable at the ranges you'd want a run-up attack. You can't cancel into it to sneak your way in off a poke, so there's no reason to use this as opposed to just forward dashing and pressing a normal. At low Spirit, Eiji will travel nowhere before slicing immediately, the frame advantage on hit/block become significantly worse, and the move does 8 damage. Awful.

Consumes 20% Spirit on use if available, but is unchanged at low Spirit. All three of the hits not only don't combo into each other, but leave a wide enough gap on hit to jab out of, if not punish with a close heavy (6f gaps on hit, 4f gaps on block, to be exact). This makes the move awful unless the 10 damage provided by the first hit will kill.

-==Backstory==
+==Story==
 Eiji is a ninja of the Kisaragi clan, respected among many. However, there is one family the Kisaragis have never been able to defeat, and that is the Sakazakis. With determination to make his clan proud, he joins the King of Fighters tournament in order to defeat the Sakazakis once and for all, and prove his clan is number one.
+==Introduction==
+Eiji is a very weak character with poor special moves and decent normals. His main gameplan is to force mistakes from the opponent and punish them using his very limited toolkit. His supers are basic, run-of-the-mill AOF2 supers that will give you some mileage, especially considering he barely uses the meter he gets.
+{{ ProConTable
+| pros=
+* fHK is a pretty good normal
+| cons=
+* Most of his normals range from mid to bad
+* Specials range from bad to very bad
+* Does very bad damage off stray hits
+* Does well below average damage on even the biggest punishes
+* No reversal
+* No sweep + bad throw + bad combos = no knockdowns
+* Stubby buttons aside from fHK
+* Just kinda doesn't have anything going for him

At the height where the first hit connects vs a grounded opponent, Eiji lands before the second hit can connect. On air hit, both hits cause an air reset, preventing the first hit from comboing into the second. With this in mind, it's more like a very active air button that does 8 damage than a 2-hit button. It's not all that much more active than jLK, and it's a lot slower and a bit less damaging. Probably just stick to jLK.

 ==Special Moves==
-'''Kikouhou''' - qcf + A (236 + A) [20% spirit meter]
+===Kikou Hou===
-* Eiji creates a short blast of ki energy from his palm, where it lingers for a second
+{{FrameDataCargo-AOF2
-* Not very useful as a poke due to poor range and startup
+| moveId = eiji_236a
-* Can be used in some scenarios as a frame trap
+| description = Costs 20% Spirit. Cannot be special cancelled into.
+The active frames on this move are way earlier than you think; it starts being active right when he starts moving his hand and stops being active before the particles can leave his hand. With that being said, this is a slow, short-ranged, unsafe option with no real utility. Avoid.
+At low Spirit, this move no longer knocks down, the animation is sped up considerably, and the move does 8 damage. This is even more awful than the regular version.

+===Kasumi Giri===
+{{FrameDataCargo-AOF2
+| moveId = eiji_214a
+| description = Costs 20% Spirit. Cannot be special cancelled into.
+Not nearly as good as you remember it from KOF. Quite big, quite active, and pretty damaging poke, making it occasionally useful to just sorta do, since Eiji has so little else to spend meter on. Not all that helpful, though.
+At low Spirit, this move is much less active and deals 7 damage. Avoid using this move at low Spirit.
+}}
+===Ryuueijin===
+{{FrameDataCargo-AOF2
+| moveId = eiji_28a
+| description = Costs 20% Spirit. Cannot be special cancelled into.
+Would be great combo filler but for some reason cannot be cancelled into. Due to this, plus its tiny hitbox, there's no point to this. In addition, this move has a unique property where, on hit or block, the animation will immediately cancel and go into recovery; this means the frame data is always consistent if the move connects, which also means you can't use this as a super plus on block meaty or anything.
+At low Spirit, this move deals 8 damage, has a faster animation, and loses the aforementioned consistent frame data property. This is just as bad as the real thing. Avoid.
+}}
+===Koppagiri===
+{{FrameDataCargo-AOF2
+| moveId = eiji_646a
+| description = Costs 20% Spirit. Cannot be special cancelled into.
+Safe on block due to the pushback, but pretty unhelpful. After Eiji catches his target, the swing is pretty sluggish, making this move potentially reactable at the ranges you'd want a run-up attack. You can't cancel into it to sneak your way in off a poke, so there's no reason to use this as opposed to just forward dashing and pressing a normal.
+At low Spirit, Eiji will travel nowhere before slicing immediately, the frame advantage on hit/block become significantly worse, and the move does 8 damage. Awful.

-'''Kasumigiri''' - qcb + A (214 + A) [20% spirit meter]
+===Kisaragi Ryuuken Kenkyaku===
-* Eiji creates swings a large energy blade at the opponent
+{{FrameDataCargo-AOF2
-* Eiji's best move to catch people jumping, dashing in, or pressing buttons
+| moveId = eiji_214b
-* Difficult to use do to its startup
+| description = Consumes 20% Spirit on use if available, but is unchanged at low Spirit.
-* The energy blade is shorter the less meter you have
-'''Ryueijin''' - d, u + A ([2]8 + A) [20% spirit meter]
+All three of the hits not only don't combo into each other, but leave a wide enough gap on hit to jab out of, if not punish with a close heavy (6f gaps on hit, 4f gaps on block, to be exact). This makes the move awful unless the 10 damage provided by the first hit will kill.
-* Eiji creates a short wave of energy that reflects projectiles
+}}
-* Has fast startup and is Eiji's main anti-zoning tool
-* Can also be used to stop pokes from the opponent
-'''Koppagiri''' - f, b, f + A (646 + A) [20% spirit meter]
+===Tenbu Kyaku===
-* Eiji rushes towards the opponent and performs a delayed slash
+{{FrameDataCargo-AOF2
-* Not much use due to the delay of the slash after Eiji reaches the opponent
+| moveId = eiji_16b
-* Usually slower than a normal dash into attack but has some use if done close to the opponent
+| description = Costs 40% Spirit.
-'''Kisagari Ryuuken Kenkyaku''' - qcb + A (214 + A) [20% spirit meter]
+Very slow, very unsafe, and lacking in really any utility. No point to ever pressing this move.
-* Eiji delivers a series 3 kicks
-* Useful as a pressure tool
-* Must be blocked high in order to escape repeating Kisagari Ryuuken Kenkyakus
-* Can be escaped if the opponent mashes a stand attack but often at the cost of a trade
-'''Tenbakyaku''' - db, f + A ([1]6 + A) [40% spirit meter]
+At low Spirit, this move does 16 damage. Still terrible.
-* Eiji jumps in a long arc in the air to deliver a series of kicks
+}}
-* Can be used to escape situations or punish from afar
-* Generally safe to use but consumes a lot of meter

-'''Zantetsuha''' - qcf, hcb + A (2363214 + A) [75% spirit meter]
+===Zantetsuha===
-* Eiji slashes the air and sends flying a huge wave of energy
+{{FrameDataCargo-AOF2
-* Extremely quick startup compared to other supers
+| moveId = eiji_2363214a
-* Useful for blowing straight through projectiles or as a predictive anti-air
+| description = Costs 75% Spirit. Can only be executed with sufficient Spirit.
+Actually an ok super. The projectile comes out fast and travels fast, making it a potentially decent harassment tool, especially since there's so little else you'll want to spend the meter on. Fine neutral tool.

+===Zantetsu Tourou Ken===
-* Eiji rushes towards the opponent to deliver an unlockable barrage attack
+{{FrameDataCargo-AOF2
-* Does massive damage and can be safely performed on knocked down opponents
+| moveId = eiji_4123632b
-* Move can only be performed when health is low enough (Eiji's stance will change as a sign)
+| description = Costs 75% Spirit. Can only be executed with sufficient Spirit and at 25% health or below.
-==Overview==
-Eiji is a very weak character with poor special moves and decent normals. His main gameplan is to force mistakes from the opponent and punish them using his very limited toolkit. Unlike his appearances in KOF, especially in '95 and '98 UMFE, Eiji's special moves are completely terrible, with the only noteworthy ones being Kasumigiri (214A) and Ryueijin (28A). Even then, Kasumigiri is a far cry from its KOF glory. His supers are basic, run-of-the-mill AoF2 supers that will give you some mileage, especially considering he barely uses the meter he gets.
+Big, damaging unblockable. Eiji doesn't have many chances to set this up; he can do it off throw, links into Low Attack, or cancelling 2HP anti-airs into it on a prayer. Ok DM.
