*Close C hits mid, links right into her qcb+B if you ever wish to score a quick kncokdown.
*cl.B hits low, and chains into itself (whiffs), cr.A, and cr.B.
*Close D works exactly like close C except with more range.
*cl.C has slow start-up for being a close normal, actually unable to combo from jump-ins, though can contrarily make an interesting meaty.
*cl.D is a quick knee strike; go-to heavy button for punishes and comboing post-jump-in.

*st.A/C/D are whiff/cancel-able. st.C is only cancelable into command normals and supers.
*Stand B is very quick, can be used as an AA poke but you have to be close.
*st.B is a good anticipatory anti-air with it being a high directed kick. Whiffs on crouchers.
*Stand C is very slow and despite the look of it it can be blocked high.
*st.C is about as fast as cl.C. Hitbox is low to the ground, but hits mid. Range isn't much greater than jab. Even advantage on block.
*Stand D while it has more range than st.C is still a little slow, however it is whiff/cancel-able so you can use to mess with your opponents, they may head think that they're just going to punish your stand D but end up eating a combo instead.
*st.D has more range than st.C while being the slowest normal Kisarah has. Committal poke that has the options of cancelability on hit or whiff available behind it.

*Crouch B chains into other lights, including itself.
*cr.B chains into itself, cr.A, and cr.B.
*Crouch C makes her hitbox slide forward upon activation, can be used to close the gap between you and the opponent, links into Jealousy Bomber DM (lvl. 3) DM.
*cr.C moves Kisarah forward as she throws an elbow ahead of her. Has some start-up attached to it, limiting its combo use to outside traditional conversions from normals. The fact that it does move forward makes it a decent approach tool and button to push on an opponent's wake-up, especially with its ability to chain into sweep.
*Crouch D is a slide kick which makes her hitbox move forward upon activation, sweeps the opponent and will also link into her Ultimate Juggles, Hearty Brandisher Type A/F (qcb+A~qcf+A) is always the prefered follow-up because it's guaranteed.
*cr.D is a slide kick that moves the hitbox forward upon activation. Sweeps the opponent and will combo into her Ultimate Juggles. Hearty Brandisher Type A to F (qcb+A.qcf+A) is always the preferred follow-up for its consistency and full connection.
'''Jumping'''
'''Jumping'''
*j.B/C/D all cross-up.
*j.A has a small and brief hitbox that's outclassed by j.B.
*Jump B has pretty good reach.
*j.B has a deep, steep angle to it, ideal for jump-ins including cross-ups and air-to-ground.
*Jump C is a headbutt attack, it can cross-up but the hitbox is awkward.
*j.C's animation makes it appear to be a revolving kick when in actuality the only hitbox that exists shows it's a headbutt attack. Kisarah rolls herself forward when doing this from a neutral or forward jump, but her legs fortunately don't extend her hurtbox forward. Unremarkable button as the hitbox is small in both height and horizontal range, and lasts momentarily.
*Jump D's hitbox extends to her other leg making it easy to use to cross-up, meaty attack.
*j.D's quite an impressive inverse to j.B. Having the most horizontal range makes it ideal for air-to-air and is still an alright jump-in, but struggles to cross-up to a point it almost never works on crouchers.

'''Snapping Stamp Kick''': (b+D)
'''Snapping Stamp Kick''': b+D
*Kisarah swings her left leg forward to kick the opponent in the head, when do alone the start-up is very slow and is very likely to leave you wide open, however it is also an Overhead Attack. As for combing into it's rather difficult because when used after a normal her hitbox is slightly pushed back making a very nex to impossible without some specific set-up. This move is very hit and miss so use it wisely. This also happens to be her first "Ultimate Juggle" which if you read the primer can net you a free hit after just about anything as long as they aren't knocked down. Think up some unique ways to incorporate this move with it and it may end up being used in your general strategy.
*Kisarah swings her left leg back over her head to kick the opponent in theirs. HKD raw and canceled, though a bit absurdly becomes an SKD on air connection, which may be a problem when using the move for its Ultimate Juggle/OTG property.
*Overhead Attack
**Somewhat negated by the quick, downward knockback speed.
*Ultimate Juggle
*Negative on block, raw ver. more minus than canceled.
*A near-full second long overhead when done raw that can almost qualify for a better taunt than what Kisarah's normal one has with how extra the animation is.
*When canceled into, Snapping Stamp hits mid and is much faster, enough to combo from heavies and canceled Round Heel Kick (f+D).
*Ultimate Juggle #1. Property only kicks in when canceled from the canceled version of Round Heel Kick.
**Ultimate Juggle ver. of Snapping Stamp also OTGs, which let's Kisarah get off two in a row if the opponent's cornered (hold forward: cl/st.A, f+D, b+D).
*Combos from: Crouch C

'''Round Heel Kick''': (f+D)
'''Round Heel Kick''': f+D
*Kisarah swings her left leg forward to hit the opponent over the head, yes it's an overhead attack and a pretty good one at that. When used alone (like Snapping Stamp Kick) the start-up is way too long for comfort, however when combo'd into it's very fast and knocks them down very quickly preventing almost any chance they would have to guard.
*Kisarah brings her right leg almost fully around her body to bring it down on the opponent's head. Knockdown properties are the same as Snapping Stamp Kick (from "HKD raw...air connection").
*Overhead Attack
*Similar raw/canceled situation to Snapping Stamp Kick. Round Heel has double the range and takes around half a second start-up.
*Combos from: st/cr.X
*Canceled ver. can combo from heavies and lights.
**Can be used after sweep where it will whiff on its own before canceling into b+D to trigger the move's Ultimate Juggle.
==Special Moves==

'''Hearty Brandisher Type B''': (qcb+B)
'''Hearty Brandisher Type A''': qcb+A
*Kisarah swings her school bag to sweep the opponents legs knocking them down. Very good move and it's crucial to a few things in her moveset. It has a relatively normal start-up speed so comboing it from strong st.X is always the best options to assure it will work. Because this move score a knockdown you have the option to continue with her Hearty Brandisher Type A/F (qcb+A~qcf+A) Ultimate Juggle for extra damage and to send the opponent flying to the other side of the screen. There are other possible options for follow-ups but Hearty Brandisher A/F yields the best results with little to risk so you'd be better off just going for that.
*Kisarah swings her bag to hit the opponent over the head while stepping forward.
*Hits Low
*Overhead HKD Attack when done raw that does actually come out faster than either of Kisarah's command normals. Canceled version hits mid, and doesn't knockdown, but is even on block when raw is negative.
*Combos from: st/cr.X
**Raw version has a 2nd, late hit where it doesn't knockdown, but unlike canceled qcb+A, it does maintain overhead property. Kisarah's spaced out enough where the Type F follow-up will not connect.
*Ultimate Juggle #2.
┗'''Hearty Brandisher Type F''': qcf+A
'''Hearty Brandisher Type C''': (qcb+C, hold to prolong)
:*The continuation of Type A. Kisarah swings her bag upward to send the opponent flying across the screen. SKD.
*Kisarah holds her bag, then she holds it like a shield then hits them with it causing them to stumble forward, the start-up is too long to make it combo-able. The main use for this move is just to pull the opponent and possibly set them up for her command grab or Jealousy Bomber, the problem is despite that it pulls them in the recovery lasts a little to long to make the possible follow-up safe. The recovery animation is the same as her idle animation and since it lasts about half a second it can get really confusing to time the move you want to finsh the combo with. The max amount of time you can prolong the move is about 4~5 seconds.
:*This follow-up will always connect from qcb+A on grounded opponents even after the HKD when Type A hits overhead or when used after sweep. It will not connect outside the corner if qcb+A hits an opponent midair.
*Press D during the prolonging to feint
*Delay Time: 4 seconds
'''Hearty Brandisher Type D''': (qcb+D, hold to prolong)
*Kisarah holds her bag, then lifts her leg, steps forward to kick the opponent in the leg then smack them with her bag. Another great move in her arsenal despite the fact that it lacks combo set-ups. This move also has 3 levels of attack, the first just makes her hit the opponent but they don't get knocked down. After about .3~.5 of a second you reach level two which has her knock the opponent into the air like most normal moves. After a whole second has passed you reached level three which has the eneding hit knocking them really high into the air setting them up to eat whatever comes afterward. Her Ultimate Juggles aren't fast enough but a good replace follow-up is her Cutey Rainbow (dp+K) and (SC) Splash Air Dance (qcfx2+K) DM. Take note that while charging if you let go and rapidly press D it'll make Kisarah bypass the prolonged start-up and go straight to her attack. Another good way to gauge the charge time is to look at her eyes, one blink means level 2 charge, while two blinks means she reached level three.
*Press C during the prolonging to feint
*Delay Time: 4 seconds
*Press D rapidly to bypass start-up time
*Combos into: Cutey Rainbow (dp+P), which can then lead to Splash Air Dance (qcfx2+K) if you wish to super cancel
'''Hearty Brandisher Type B''': qcb+B
*Kisarah swings her bag, this time aiming toward the opponent's legs. HKD.
*Hits low when done raw. Hits mid when canceled into.
*Cancelable into Type A.
*When canceled from Type C, Kisarah hops back before the strike. On block, the opponent receives more pushback than the other two versions of qcb+B, keeping Kisarah safe, and safer than if she ended on Type A or Type F.
'''Hearty Brandisher Type A''': (qcb+A)
*Kisarah swings her bag to hit the opponent over the head, possibly one of if not her best special attack. The start-up is slow which makes it very annyoing if you ever try to combo into it raw. But the thing is it doesn't really work that way with this move as it's part of an Ultimate Juggle. You score a knockdown (example would be her Crouch D or Hearty Brandisher Type B since it knocks down) this move will set them up.
'''Hearty Brandisher Type C''': qcb+C (can be held up to 7 seconds)
*Overhead Attack
*Kisarah quickly lifts the bag to her head where she's in a counter state. If she counters nothing, she'll proceed to reel the opponent to her with the bag. This leaves the opponent standing in a prolonged hitstun.
*Ultimate Juggle
*Holding C has Kisarah take a stance, turning her back on the opponent, holding her bag in front of her near her feet. She'll blink 7 times assuming stance is held the whole way, automatically releasing at the 7th blink, giving the move a total of 8 levels.
*Combos from: Sweeps, Crouch D
**Can cancel stance by pressing D. Pianoing qcb+C~D lets Kisarah quickly and idly build meter.
**Charging the move affects how plus Kisarah's frame advantage is when qcb+C connects, starting with being even on the uncharged version, meaning Kisarah needs one blink (charging almost 1.5 seconds) to link a cancelable light.
**Charging does not affect the window of the counterstate, though Type C level 8 does cause Kisarah to completely skip it right to the bag reel.
*The canceled version of Type C from Type D has about the same advantage as if Kisarah had charged to level 4, letting her link cr.C.
*If Kisarah counters the opponent, she'll switch sides then thrust her hip into their back. The hip attack is both special- and supercancelable. Cheerleader Kick (qcf+B/D), Hearty Brandisher Type A & B, and Jealousy Bomber (hcfx2+A/C) will combo after.
┗'''Hearty Brandisher Type F''': (qcf+A)
'''Hearty Brandisher Type D''': qcb+D (can be held up to 5 seconds)
*Continuing from her overhead attack this move will have Kisarah swing her bag upward to send the opponent flying across the screen. Part two of the Ultimate Juggle from Hearty Brandisher Type A, it is prefered to always use this move after the qcf+A so that you get as much damage out of the combo as you can.
*Kisarah lifts her leg and takes a small step back, then hops forward to kick the opponent in the leg then smacks them with her bag. Without charge, does not knockdown.
*Ultimate Juggle (2)
*Either hit can cancel into qcb+C.
*Holding D has Kisarah take the same stance as when she holds the button on Type C. While Kisarah blinks 5 times over the course of the 5-second hold limit, there are only 3 levels, not 6, and the 2nd and 3rd levels are available as soon as Kisarah's 1st and 2nd blinks respectively (which come one after the other fairly quickly, and occur with less than a full second hold).
**Can cancel stance by pressing C. Pianoing qcb+D~C lets Kisarah quickly and idly build meter.
**Level 2 causes the move to SKD and gain supercancelability on the 2nd hit, exclusively with Splash Air Dance (qcfx2+B/D). The knockback angle lets it consistently and fully hit.
**Level 3 launches the opponent straight up into the air. Maintains the SC-property from lv.2 but you'd be wasting your bar when you can just wait and link. SKD.
***Type D level 3 links into qcf+B, dp+B, and qcfx2+B/D.
*While there's an uncomfortable amount of start-up before Kisarah even starts to attack regardless of how long you charge Type D, it can be skipped by pressing D again right after executing/releasing qcb+D. It's not fast enough to combo even after cancelable heavies, but it gets close, enough for viable pressure application.
'''Hip Bazooka''': (qcf+A/C)
'''Hip Bazooka''': qcf+A/C
*Kisarah leaps forward to hit the opponent with her side, another long move with a rather poor start-up. No combo use here, but in terms of regular use it can be useful. The weak version works like any other move, while the strong version knocks them down upon contact. It isn't all that safe if they manage to guard however it can be useful in other ways. One notable thing is that within half-screen distance the weak version can cross-up up the opponent allowing for additional attacks. The strong version doesn't work as well since it knocks down but it can be used as a reversal to quickly get away from the opponent before they get a chance to attack you again.

Kisarah grabs the opponent then leaps over them, doesn't really have any definitive use outside of super canceling because it doesn't do any damage off the bat. Always super cancel whenever you get the chance if you ever use this move because the recovery isn't all that great and it's bound to leave you wide open to be punished.

Cheerleader Kick: (qcf+B/D)
Kisarah leaps forward to kick the opponent in the face, yet another great with many great purposes. The start-up is very fast making it very easy to combo from just about anything. It can be super canceled on hit into her Splash Air Dance Dm if you have the extra meter. The weak version is very fast and can even be used as anti-air despite it's slightly rigid hitbox. The strong version has a little bit longer start-up but the differences aren't all that crucial.

Cutey Rainbow: (dp+B/D)
Kisarah launches off the ground like a rocket to kick the opponent into the air. Her only dp attack through out all of her moves, this one of course works like a dp as well. The weak version does two hits and goes about as high as a regular jump, the strong version however does three hits and makes her launch much higher into the air. Neither version is really safe so try your best to combo into it when you can or if you're right under them during a jump. Both versions are super cancel-able on any hit into her Splash Air Dance DM.

┗Happy Presser
After the kick she will then sit on the opponent sending them falling towards the ground. A great combo ender for extra damage and to keep the opponent close. Comboing into it can be kinda of pain at first because if you press the buttons to fast it'll make her super cancel the Cutey Rainbow into her air DM. You have to time that you do the dp then do the same input again but not in one quick swift motion. The easiet way to do it is after the strong version because of the slightly longer start-up.
