Nekko Meki - hcf x 2 + B/D (then hcf + B/D, then dp + B/D)
'''Nekko Meki''' - close, (hcf x 2 + B/D, hcf + B/D, then dp + B/D)
* This is both an auto-guard move and a delayed command throw Desperation Move.
* The auto-guard comes first then the delayed command throw. Opponents moves that are too far away that are auto-guarded, won't be caught by Goro's throw. If no moves are auto-guarded, the delayed command throw will still release if the opponent is in range.
* The first section of this DM (hcfx2+BD) is his throw from the qcf+K counter that does 10% damage
* The second section (hcf+K, Goro turns around after the first throw) is his hcf+P throw that does 12% damage. Goro recovers faster than the opponent wakes up which gives it the best okizeme opportunity.
* The final section (dp+K) is the body slam from his hcb,f+K throw that deals around 14% damage. Goro and the opponent recover around the same time after the knockdown.
