Aw that’s no fun. Can’t have my random parry victories. I guess I’ll try it if someone brings it to a tournament or sumtin.
Wei plz.
BOY I LOVE NETPLAY GAIZ
STOP.
Miami time.
speaking of walmart, they’re selling ps2/gc/sb to usb converters for ten bucks now.
so no one has an excuse to not have a way to play this with pad/stick. 
I have a question about tiers.
I use Kanae, and my friend uses Akatsuki. We doesn’t understand why people say Kanae is lower in the game, and why Akatsuki is like, considered top?
Kanae has the crazy good throws into crazy damage into insanely good wakeup, can combo out of parry into 22C, good range with standing C, 6C is deadly, 2C is pretty safe, etc. Three bar super only requires one bar of risk if you miss it, and it does a ton of damage.
Akatsuki didn’t seem to be able to handle it. He DPs me, he gets a bit of life. I bait his DP, and its free throw into wakeups, or i parry into free 22C. His fireball is super punishable in the air, and doesnt seem that special. His super fireball is SUPER easy to parry. You can throw him out of his overhead, his 6B or whatever that launcher move is, is REALLY unsafe. So i’d like to see why people say that and what i’m missing, cause if Kanae is that bad and Akatsuki is that good, then why does it seem like she doesn’t have a problem dealing with him?
Keep in mind my play time is limited, which is why im not sure.
Well none of that stuff makes aka good.
2b x 214a or other various safe poke strings into pressure.
It doesn’t matter that 6c is punishable, it should only be used to punish confirmed whiffs or in a combo.
If he has a stock, you have to make his dp whiff or parry it to punish it, since he can cancel into air fireball super low to the ground.
Everything Kanae does depends on guessing right. Other than generally good pokes (5b) and 6c pressure, every mixup she can do gets her punished if she guesses wrong. Parry whiff = punish. Counter whiff = punish. Air grab upon landing = punish. Go for dash grab and they hit buttons = punished. She basically has to force 6c on them, which is an awesome move, but it’s the only safe thing she has to get great damage.
For Aka, his j.B has a pretty big hitbox making it an ideal crossup. And also, his combos put you into the corner really fast which end in a knockdown or tech punish scenario.
I don’t know if it’s just me but it’s really easy to parry almost EVERYTHING in this game granted that you parry the first hit of the attack because the timing is really lenient.
Beat Sugoroku on Valhall… what a waste of time =/
Anyway I might be sticking to Anonym for a whiles. Too much damage and I hardly have to waste meter. I can get out a 4000 something combo w/o wasting a meter.
So I finally got to run and play this game. It kicks ass, tho I got a few questions-
1- WTF is the deal with Fritz/old guy with sword?! What the heck do his special and super special moves do?!?!
2- Are there any unlockable characters?
3- Could someone provide some strats for Akatsuki and Anonym?
4- What’s Sai’s background/story?
So yesterday I sat and recorded 3 easy noobish combos for Akatsuki-
So whaddya think
I think I don’t want to go to FileFront to download something that should be on YouTube.
If anyone wants to purchase a copy of this game, I have a friend in Japan who is going to send me a bulk order of whatever amount of copies I get – for both Big Bang Beat when it comes out, and Akatsuki.
Each copy of each game should run about ~$35 shipped. Let me know if anyone is interested, send me an e-mail at nothingxs@gmail.com or just PM me.
What program should I use to record replays for youtube? Got a few matches I want to upload.
You can use fraps to record the replays and then use whatever program you want to convert it to a format that youtube will accept.
hows online play?
I’ve yet to play online with it as well… though maybe nothingxs will wanna play me one of these days?
its not too too good =[
