Special Moves
Makura Nage - (qcb + A/C)
- Meitenkun throws a slow illuminated pillow at the opponent.
- Light punch (A) version travels horizontally
- Heavy punch (C) version travels upward, diagonally
- The slow movement of the projectile for both angles makes it a very useful neutral zoning tool.

Sen-Siss Hou - (charge briefly back, then forward+A/C)
- Meitenkun rushes forward with a fierce thrust punch. Has good start-up speed but has no invincibility. Very unsafe on block.
- This move has 3 levels depending on how long you charge back. First level is the quickest charge that travels half-screen distance & does 70 damage. The second level is a 2 second charge that travels at a 3/4th screen distance and does 80 damage. The longest charge is around 3/5 seconds where Meitenkun don't travel full-screen but lands directly next to the opponent if they are separated screen corner to corner & does 100 damage.
- Soft knockdown
EX: Much faster start-up, uses the level 1 charge time, safer on block, puts the opponent in a juggle state
- Sen-Siss Hou (Follow Up) - (A/C)
- This punch follow-up knocks the opponent away a fair amount from Meitenkun. Not safe on block but has a good amount of push-back away from the opponent. Some characters can easily punish this follow-up and others have more trouble.
Geki Hou - (charge briefly down, then up+A/C)
- Energy briefly surrounds Meitenken while he stands up straight.
- Has two levels depending on charge time. Level 1 is the quickest charge time: has no invincibility, but has fast start-up & does 80 damage. Level 2 is a 2/3 second charge time: has brief invincibility, & more range. Both versions are unsafe on block.
- Can negate projectiles
- Best used during combos or as strictly an anti-air at a close range.
EX: More damage, more range (horizontally & vertically), faster start-up, puts the opponent in a juggle state.
Ressen Kyaku - (qcb + B/D) in the air
- Meitenkun performs rapid lighting kicks in the air
- The light kick (B) version does 3 hits (depending on jump height) while the heavy kick version can do up to 5 hits, while braking Meitenken slightly in the air before moving towards the opponent.
EX: Faster start-up, travels similar to the heavy kick version but has a longer distance and does more damage and hits. Also puts the opponent in a juggle-able state.
