Generic punish tool which has slightly slower startup than n5C, but better frame advantage on hit and starts lower.
Crouching two hit slash with slightly slower startup than n5C and no recoil cancel, but better frame advantage on hit and starts lower.
Yumeji is a headswap of Ukyo who draws from Ukyo's Samurai Shodown III/IV Bust moveset. Yumeji trades out Ukyo's specials and floaty jump for better air mobility and varied specials that suit a very well rounded hit and run game. The two share many normals, but Yumeji's frame data is tweaked to better suit a midrange poking game. Yumeji has excellent tech chases off most soft knockdowns, reliable meaty setups off hard knockdowns, solid pressure, and a potent neutral game with good pokes and recoil cancels, a long reaching overhead, and an air fireball series.

Dash type: Run
Damage taken: 115% (4th Frailest)
Rage retention: 90
Rage duration: 15 seconds (4th Longest)
Gameplan
Yumeji is a keepaway character with an assortment of ranged pokes, recoil cancel options and fireballs to cover different ranges and angles. This variation of Ukyo retains his fast run speed and backdash but has a faster jump which makes air poking much more viable. However, much like Ukyo, Yumeji's defense is below average to compensate for the strong zoning tools you're working with.
Learn the spacings for 5B and 5C, as they are your best pokes. Both are fast, reach incredibly far and recoil on block. If you are expecting the opponent to block your 5B, 5A may be used instead to recoil cancel faster. Yumeji's fastest recoil cancel options are 214S and 421A/B ~A/B. If you've conditioned the opponent to respect you, there's also 236S to press an advantage or 623S as a mixup option if spaced properly. Up close, Yumeji's lights can be used as strong, safe pressure tools, given they are fast and have good recovery. As for anti-airing, Yumeji has 2B, jC and, most importantly, Concealed Sabre Firefly (j1236S). Firefly is an air fireball which comes out extremely fast and covers different trajectories for each strength, which couples nicely with Yumeji's relatively fast jumps to take full control of the skies. By backdash cancelling into it, Firefly also provides Yumeji even more ground control and anti-air potential.
Firefly's sheer speed means that, much like Ukyo's Tsubame Gaeshi, it can be used to punish close medium slashes up close. It doesn't hit overhead, though - close range vortexes are his thing. As for other punish options, Yumeji retains Ukyo's excellent run speed and fast, far-reaching 66C, but also adds 66B to the mix, which can be special cancelled on the first hit. 66C is an ideal punish option at all times, as Yumeji is designed to play hit-and run at the tip of its range, and the knockdown it provides leads nicely into setplay with Concealed Sabre Solar Flame (236S), a ground fireball. While Firefly is a fast, arced fireball with limited range, Solar Flame travels quickly in a straight line, but the startup is dreadful. Yumeji needs space to set this up, but the reward is well worth it. While Firefly only provides a knockdown, which is still useful, Solar Flame grants incredible frame advantage if it connects. On hit, Yumeji can very easily pick up with 66B or 66C for a knockdown. On block, the choice is yours to either run away or zone in for a mixup, which should depend on how close you are to the corner given Yumeji's propensity for running away. Tick throws and shimmies are very useful here, especially given Yumeji's fast ground speeds across the board. Given the potential ground to be lost during the startup and how not even the heavy version reaches fullscreen, Solar Flame is a lot more useful for setplay than it is for straight zoning. Oral Tradition Snow Wind (421A/B ~A/B) can potentially be used for zoning as well, but given the wait before your followups come out, its bad recovery and tricky angles, it is advised to save that move for combos, where its range and angles make it excel.
Up close, Yumeji has some mixup potential, although not as devastating at Ukyo's from all ranges. Concealed Sabre Ephemeral Shadow (623S) is a series of shadow slashes consisting of a frame trap which can link into heavies, a forward-hitting knockdown and a crossup-hitting knockdown. These are effective recoil options up close, although they can be thrown. In lieu of Tsubame Gaeshi, there's also 6B, a modest overhead which has to be spaced lest it be thrown or punished on hit, and a decent assortment of low-hitting kicks to back it up. When not running away, Yumeji can lead into this safely when running behind a Solar Flame, which is even scarier in the corner. At that range, Yumeji can time Solar Flame so it hits the opponent if they don't tech, but in such a way that if they do tech, Yumeji can tech chase with 66C or Firefly for short rolls and a throw for long rolls. On a side note, Yumeji should never pursuit an opponent unless it is guaranteed to kill, as it wastes time which could be spent timing a meaty Solar Flame or otherwise buying space.
Spirits
I greatly increases Yumeji's damage output during Rage, which plays favorably to such a long Rage duration. Yumeji's Hyper Slash also has good range. However, it offers no defensive or mobility options, bars access to Yumeji's good supers, and Yumeji's Hyper Slash damage is 5th weakest in the game.
II enhances Yumeji's Weapon Flip by breaking the opponent's weapon, offering an extended window to press momentum. It also grants access to your Secret Move once per game. Rolls, ducks, and hops give Yumeji a variety of defensive options, and rolls also enhance Yumeji's mobility.
III lets Yumeji charge Rage manually and grants infinite Rage at very low HP. Poor Rage retention means the charging process is slow. Dodge offers a standard grounded defensive option. Air parry is niche given Yumeji's other air options, but may have occasional utility.
IV's signature Continuous Slash offers Yumeji an alternative combo starter for increased damage or a modest Rage boost. IV shares dodge as a defensive option with III Spirit, and offers Rage Explosion + Issen as a last ditch defensive threat. Unlike most, Yumeji's Continuous Slash has no throw invulnerability.
V downplays Yumeji's supers, but ample opportunity to meditate, good high/low options that don't knock down, and an unburstable launcher make Yumeji's State of Nothingness game very threatening. V also builds on II's dodges and rolls with an excellent forward hop. Rage Explosion is available as a defensive option, but without access to Issen. Reduced Rage time emphasizes meditation, but Yumeji does have good base Rage duration when Rage is preferable to further meditation.
VI ensures reliable access to WFT thanks to its unique Rage system. Repeated access to Yumeji's Secret Move at low HP offers an additional high damage confirm, and even combos from Yumeji's 5A. Mikiri dodges are very strong defensive options that also give earlier access to Secret Move, and Hyper Guard can push the opponent away to restart Yumeji's gameplan.

A quick horizontal slash with moderate range. An excellent punish starter and confirm from deephits, backhits, and 623A. Leads to good damage with either C2 or C4. Full C4 builds a modest amount of Rage, but Yumeji often prefers to special cancel from C2 (BBC) or partial C4 (AABBC). Combos are inconsistent when spaced, as some followup hits have less range than the initial slash.

Bust-Ukyo's fast-travelling fireball, but the startup is much slower. Strength determines the range before it dissipates, with 236A reaching about 5C's length away from you and 236C reaching nearly the whole screen. In return for its lengthy startup, this move is advantageous enough that it can link into your dashing attacks or anything else that can reach, or lead nicely into tick throws and other mixup options on block. Far too slow to zone effectively, but useful for setplay.

Remember how Ukyo's Tsubame Gaeshi used to spawn a fireball while also being an overhead? While Ukyo has ditched the fireball since III, Yumeji has adopted it while abandoning the overhead hit. While the fireball retains the same V-shaped arc it no longer travels fullscreen, reaching a little further than 5C at most before dying out. However, this move is still very much useful not only for the angles it covers, but for its near-instant startup. In addition to normal air usage, Yumeji can use cancel backdash into Firefly to better cover ground space.
A begins traveling upwards very early, B travels in a nearly horizontal arc, and C dips below Yumeji before rising upwards slightly late in its arc.
While its fast startup is potentially appealing as a punish tool, Firefly deals significantly less damage than Tsubame Gaeshi. Fast grounded options are generally preferable. Likewise, the 1f link from 2D is much lower reward and no longer has a high component to potentially catch opponents. Backdash cancels can still serve as a situational antiair.
Minus on block even at max range, but generally safe when spaced.

A recoil cancel option with roughly the same range as 2A. Also a possible far anti-air for its vertical reach. This is similar to Ukyo's apple slice, but instead of multiple independent hits it is a hitgrab akin to Yoshitora's Asagao (furthermore, you're throwing a persimmon instead of an apple, if it makes a difference). Strength determines its active frames and number of hits if it connects. Causes untechable knockdown.
There is no fakeout version of this move.
Each version has more hits than the corresponding version of Ukyo's 214S, as well as increased startup. Stronger versions have more startup and worse frame advantage on block. Even 214A won't combo from most hits, and 214B/C will not fully connect on block. The longer duration may catch opponents off guard if used sparingly.
The high number of hits makes it useful for chip kills after a knockdown.
Yumeji can meaty with 236S after any 214S hit, forcing the opponent to block on wakeup or else give Yumeji a combo:
Midscreen, forward jump or roll into 236A. Allow the roll to fully recover rather than roll canceling. This also sets up a good spacing for 6B mixups.
In corner, neutral/back jump or backroll into whichever 236S is appropriate for the spacing. Again, if rolling allow it to fully recover.
Leads to a guaranteed pursuit in the corner.

Concealed with the morphing effect from V, Yumeji dashes forward then swipes at the opponent. All three versions have significant startup, but gain strike invulnerability when Yumeji disappears on frame 18. Situationally useful as a recoil cancel to beat opponents mashing, particularly on 5C.
623A is +9 on hit, linking into many of Yumeji's faster normals as well as Continuous Slash. Somewhat safe on block when spaced, especially if the opponent crouch blocks. However, all 623S variants hit mid. Loses invulnerability shortly before it hits.
623B acts like a single hit version of 66B and launches the opponent. Reaches slightly further than 623A. Yumeji can also combo off this, and once again loses invulnerability shortly before it hits.
623C is the slowest of the three and hits crossup, similar to Ukyo 66B but slower. Does not allow for followup attacks on hit. More punishable than 623A/B. Remains strike invulnerable until after active frames end.

Long-ranged attacks with followups that lead to knockdowns. As this is your fastest grounded special, it is also your main combo ender. The initial attacks both have relatively low recovery, though the followups are much more committal.
421A is an upwards hitting launcher. This can antiair and will juggle into the followups on air hit. Whiffs against crouching opponents. As a launcher, opponents cannot Rage Explosion after 421A hits. Can clash and is vulnerable to deflect.
421B is a low downwards strike. This is relatively safe on block as a recoil cancel and can check opponents stand blocking. Yumeji's primary special for combos and an important recoil cancel option as well.
The optional second hit reaches not only farther but either higher (A) or lower (B). On hit, A will knock the opponent further away, while B will keep them closer. Both versions have much higher recovery than the first hit and are very unsafe. It can be delayed a little to frame trap. The B followup will hit low if cancelled into from 421B, but from 421A it will hit overhead. Limited coverage and high recovery makes the followups generally ill-suited for zoning, but they can be used for a ranged mixup on knockdown or after an air hit.
421A~A deals more damage than the other combinations and is a good antiair option. It gives good frame advantage on hit, but knocks the opponent far away. 421B~B gives the best oki, with the opponent left at close range for easy tech chases. 421B~A has comparable frame advantage to 421B~B, but launches the opponent away. 421A~B knocks the opponent down rather than launching them, resulting in the worst oki.
The cancel timing for followups differs depending on hit/block/whiff. The timing for cancels on hit is distinct from the other two scenarios. This can be used to option select followups on hit. Repeating the followup input improves consistency if desiring to cancel regardless of the initial attack's outcome.
If an opponent attempts to use Hyper Slash to deal with your pressure after Solar Flame, this move's two hits can be used to break its armor. However, given the bad recovery, it's probably best to go for a throw instead.

Viable alternative to WFT as a combo tool. The first hit's range is roughly the same as 5B. This deals slightly more damage than 236AB, but instead of sideswitching it pushes the opponent far away. First hit into the remaining hits is not a true blockstring.
Combos
Standard Combos
n5B/n2B/66B/5D 421S~S/236AB - Combos starting from medium slashes.
2D, n5A/n2A/3D/6D - 2D followups with varying levels of risk/reward. n5A can combo into WFT.
2D, j1236A - High risk 1f link for low reward. Not recommended.
623A/B, 66C - Confirm from 623S hits. Remember that 623C does not allow followups.
623A, 2B 421S~S - Close range followup to 623A.
236S, 66X - Ground fireball's hitstun is long enough to follow up with a dashing normal, or anything else that will reach.
421A, 66C - Also a 1f link, but minimal risk and good reward. Deals comparable damage to 421A~A but as a confirm.
421A, 2A - Point blank 421A can also set up an air reset with 2A. This can cancel into 421S~S for a mixup on landing, 236C for pressure (does not hit meaty), or Yumeji can simply run in to start pressure. Replacing 2A with n5A in the corner sets up meaty 6B/6D mix, but bear in mind this leaves Yumeji punishable after 6B if point blank.
ch 2C, 66C/6D/n2B 421S~S - Counterhit 2C confirms for different spacings and commitment. Somewhat tight link, especially 66C.
Hyper Slash (I)
236S A+B - Will only combo around the tip of 236A's range. If you're actually fishing for this in a match for some reason, don't try it anywhere else or it will get you killed. It will probably get you killed, anyway.
IV Spirit
A+B BBC/AABBC 421A/B ~A/B - Continuous Slash punishes. For the CS2 juggle, 421A ~A/B is most consistent.
A+B BBC/AABBC 236AB - Continuous Slash into WFT.
A+B BBC 214A - Corner only.
623A, A+B - Continuous Slash will link at any spacing unless 623A catches an extended hurtbox, but the followups aren't as reliable at max range. CS4 is the best option when spaced; the first A followup will likely whiff and must quickly cancel into the second A followup. On CS2 the third (C) followup may whiff at max range.
66B 421A/A+B BBC/A+B AABBC 421A, ABC Juggles into Fatal Flash. 66B 421A juggles earliest and is thus the least vulnerable to Rage Explosion, but is character specific when used midscreen. The CS4 route is also Yumeji's most damaging Issen confirm in IV Spirit; omitting 421A is a marginal reduction in damage if pressed for time.
State Of Nothingness (V)
6B, ... ABC - Conversion from overhead into Fatal Flash. Be careful not to link grounded heavies together in the filler. jB may be used as an instant overhead instead if the opponent's crouching hurtbox is large enough.
421A ABC - Launcher into Issen. Immune to Rage Explosion if the opponent is using IV/V Spirit, but has short range. 421A will not hit most crouching opponents after 6B.
