Gameplay Overview

Normals

Standing

st. A: A horizontal knife slash that has decent range. Great to use as a poke.

st. B: This kick has shorter range than st. A, but has a bit more damage.

st. C: This slow half circular slash moves Nakoruru forward bit that gives it more horizontal range than st. A.

st. D: Nakoruru leans back to deliver a side kick that has shorter horizontal range than st. B but is aimed a bit higher. Can be used as a preemptive anti-air against hops at a mid-range.

Close

cl. A: This short, quick slash is neutral on block & is special cancel-able.

cl. B: This knee is special cancel-able, and can be chain easily into st. A and cr. A

cl. C: Nakoruru throws out a fierce half circular slash (that ends above her head) that is special cancel-able.

cl. D: This side kick shares the same animation as st. D, but hits twice. Both of the hits are special cancel-able. The second hit is neutral on block.

Crouching

cr. A: Similar to cl. A, but crouching. You will be using this during Nakoruru's crouching combos. Neutral on block & special cancel-able.

cr. B: This crouching kick hits low, has fast start-up & can chain easily into itself and other standing & crouching light normals. You will be using this kick a lot to start many of Nakoruru's combos.

cr. C: A full circular knife swing that can be used as an anti-air & can hit confirm into Nakoruru's special moves easily. Has bad recovery if whiffed. Special cancel-able.

cr. D: Nakoruru sits down kicking both of her legs at a slight upward angle. This sweep has more horizontal range than cr. B & special cancel-able.

Jumping

j. A: This jumping slash shares the same animation as cr. A, and cl. A. Best used as an air-to-air attack. Whiffs on some crouching opponents.

j. B: Nakoruru flips forward quickly to deliver a very steep downward angle double heeled kick. Best used as a jump-in attack, and can easily cross-up crouching opponents.

j. C: This swinging slash whiffs on some crouching opponents. Best used as a ground-to-air attack or early air-to-air attack

j. D: Has a similar downward angle to j. B but has more horizontal range. It can cross-up crouching opponents but not as easily as j. B.

Blowback

st. CD: Nakoruru performs a slow backflip kick. Can be whiff canceled into her special moves (must be performed quickly).

j. CD: Looks similar to cr. D Best used as an air-to-air attack or as a ground-to-air approach. Whiffs on crouching opponents.

Throws

Ruten Kyougekijin - (b/f+C) close

Nakoruru grabs the opponent, flips them around, then stabs them in the heart. The opponent's position is at a half-screen distance away from Nakoruru.
Can be broken
Hard knockdown

Hougekiyou - (b/f+D) close

After Nakoruru swings the opponent around behind her, Mamahaha pounces them. The opponent lands and wakes up around 60% screen distance away from Nakoruru
Can be broken
Hard knockdown

Command Moves

Chitenzan - (df+A)

Nakoruru tumbles towards the opponent slashing them 3 times. All hits are special cancel-able. Can combo from cl. C, cr. C & cl. D.

Nakoruru travels approximately 15% screen distance towards the opponent. She can be hit during the tumble & she is pushed back slightly if blocked. Has poor recovery if whiffed.

Hits low

Sankaku-Tobi - (up-towards) (if in air at corner of the screen)

This wall jump increases her hop and jump arc. The up-forward (towards the opponent) must be inputted during a backward hop or backward jump at the corner of the screen.

Special Moves

Annu Mutsube - (qcf + A/C)

Nakoruru performs a sliding slash towards the opponent

A version travels at a half-screen distance, can combo from cancel-able light & heavy normal attacks & df+A. Safe on block at max distance, susceptible to normal and command throws if blocked at point blank. Has no push-back if blocked. Knocks the opponent down (soft knockdown) & can air-reset the opponent in the corner. Can be used to evade incoming hops and jumps if performed early, and can anti-air whiffed jump normals.

C version travels at a 3/4ths screen distance, and can only combo from heavy normal attacks and df+A. Unsafe on block regardless of distance. Doesn't knockdown the opponent on hit.

Super Cancel-able

EX: Travels full-screen towards the opponent, much more faster start-up, doesn't knock the opponent down, more damage and neutral on block

Annu Mutsube (Follow Up) - (qcb + C)

This is a follow-up attack from qcf+C, or qcf+AC. Nakoruru rears back half-screen after the sliding slash. If telegraphed, the opponent can Guard Cancel Roll the qcf+C or qcf+AC then punish follow-up easily or punish the follow-up by itself using a fast, long ranged special move, Super Special Move or Climax.

Rera Mutsube - (dp + A/C)

Similar to the animation of Annu Mutsube, but Nakoruru flies in a diagonally angle towards the sky

Has a small amount of start-up invincibility.

Best used to anti-air jumps and super jumps or as a reversal

No big difference between the A (light punch) and C (heavy punch) versions except for distance that the heavy punch version has more of.

Not safe if blocked or whiffed

Soft knockdown

EX: Faster start-up, more damage

Amube Yatoro - (qcf + B/D)

Mamahaha swiftly flies down diagonally to attack the opponent.

Can negate projectiles except for EX projectiles & Super special move projectiles

B (light kick) version travels downwards at a 45 degree angle, while D (heavy kick) version travels at a 60 degree angle.

Both kick versions can combo from a canceled st. CD in the corner

Poor recovery if whiffed or blocked

EX: Same angle as D version but much faster, and can negate EX projectiles.

Clinging to Mamahaha - (qcb + B/D)

Nakoruru raises up vertically to cling to Mamahaha. The player can move 8 ways while in-flight

Nakoruru is briefly invincible while rising up to Mamahaha

Nakoruru can hang onto Mamahaha for around 3 real-time seconds

Yatoro Pokku - [Clinging to Mamahaha] - (down + B/C)

Nakoruru vertically descends from Mamahaha quickly with a heel kick that hits overhead.

Safe on block and can easily combo into her standing and crouching light normal attacks

Kamui Mutsube - [Clinging to Mamahaha] - (down + A/C)

Nakoruru quickly decends diagonally downward towards the opponent with a fierce slash

A (light punch) version attacks at a 40 degree angle, while the C (heavy punch) version attacks at a 50 degree angle.

Can easily super cancel into qcfx2+K

Super Special Moves

Irusuka Yatoro Rimuse - (qcf, qcf+K)

This is the Super version of her qcf+K Mamahaha attack. The light kick version travels half-screen while the heavy kick version travels 3/4ths away from Nakoruru.

Can be easily Super Cancelled from her special moves, and can be used as a late anti-air.

Can negate normal and EX based projectiles

Hard knockdown

Nakoruru is vulnerable if the heavy kick version of this super is performed too closely to a crouching opponent. Also, the opponent can Guard Cancel Roll (GCAC) Mamahaha then punish Nakoruru.

Max: Faster start-up, more damage, and has the distance in between the light kick and heavy kick version. Negates Super projectiles.

Inepu • Ikashima • Wanpe • Chuie - (qcf, qcf+P)

Nakoruru slashes while advancing slowly towards the opponent. When connected, the slashes end in an uppercut. If whiffed, she stops advancing towards the opponent near a half-screen distance away.

This super has slow start-up, doesn't have any invincibility and is very unsafe if blocked. The opponent can Guard Cancel Roll (GCAB) if they block the first few slashes then punish Nakoruru.

When super cancelled from Nakoruru's special moves, it will not connect.

Max:This version is more preferred to use in battle. It can combo & super cancel reliably from qcf+C, and inflicts more damage.

Climax Super Special Moves

Kanto • Kamui • Mutsube - (hcb, hcb + B+D)

Nakoruru flies with Mamahaha full screen towards the opponent, stabs, launches and slams them to ground.

Nakoruru flies back to her initial position if the first attack misses. Nakoruru flies at a lower height when she flies back (that can hit crouching opponents that are not blocking).

Nakoruru is not invincible during this Climax

Hard knockdown

Can super cancel or Climax Cancel easily from her qcfx2+K Super Special Move

Combos

(any special information about the character combos if needed)

Notation
