1. Hints and Tips
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

*I've noticed that people who are third in the tournament (eg Kabaji,Yuuta)are
practically helpless against smashes. I was playing Kabaji as Oshitari and he
kept giving me opportunities to smash and almost all of them made it even
though they went right to him. Same case was with Yuuta except I was using
Momoshiro; P

*Don't keep trying to get the ball away from your opponent. If your playing a
big guy like Kabaji or Inui then hit the ball to them and THEN smack it away.
Since there so big the have limited reach, which will play a big factor in
return aces.

*When playing as characters like Ishida, Kawamaru and Kabaji try using the
Hadyokous and get RKO's which comes if your able to knock your opponents
racquet out of their hands three times. Make sure that the Submit Function is
on in the Options menu.

************************************************
CHORO OOTORI
************************************************
Unlocking Character: Use Inui Sadaharu in Yamabuki
*NOTE: unconfirmed but it may be possible for Shishido to unlock Ootori

Serve:
L+R+A/B: Scud Serve

Serve Return :
L+R+A/B: Scud Return ... well, don't really know if it has a proper name,
its a super fast return, only available when returning serves ...

Netplay/Lob/Smash/Return:
None/Unconfirmed

************************************************
MUNEHIRO KABAJI
************************************************
Unlocking Character: Use Takeshi Kawamaru in Hyotei

Is it just me or does this guy slip 'n slide all over the place???*

Serve/Smash Return:

against Kawamaru

************************************************
GAKUTO MUKAKHI

Netplay:
L+R+A/B: Acrobatic Play
*Mukakhi jumps up and hits the ball in between his legs

Lob Return:
L+R+A/B: Flipping Smash
*Mukakhi flips up and smashes

************************************************
OSHITARI YUUSHI
************************************************
Unlocking Character: Use Takeshi Momoshiro in Hyotei

Serve:
None/Unconfirmed

Netplay:
L+R+A/B: Disappearing Return
*Not sure of the name but it's a variation of Fuji's Cut Serve

Return:
L+R+A/B:  Oshitari's Moon Volley
*Like Oishi's Moon Volley, it must be done when the ball is about to be played
in your opponent’s court

Lob Return:
None/Unconfirmed

Smash Return:
L+R+A/B: Higuma Otoshi

************************************************
ATOBE KEIGO
************************************************
Unlocking Character: Use ANY Hyotei Player (except for Ootori and Shishodo I
think) in Hyotei
Serve:
L+R+A/B: Thunder Serve
*Not sure of the name but a really fast serve with a thundery thing over
Atobe's head.
NOTE: Sometimes it's not available for some reason

Serve :
L+R+A/B: Backspin Serve ... (not proper name) Using A will make Atobe serve
fast,
while using B will make the ball bounce really low and weakly when it bounces
on the
opponent's court ( that's what backspin does)

Anti Netplay
L+R+A/B: Teleporting Jackknife (again not proper name) its not the drive B, its
actually the move Atobe uses to counter Tezuka's drive volley in the anime,
when
Tezuka tries to mimic the way Atobe won the first point of the match. It only
can be
done when the opponent is at the net and the ball they hit will not go beyond
the service
line ... I spent ages trying to figure out the conditions to do his Net
jackknife ...

Return:
L+R+A/B:  Drive B
*Not sure of name but it looks exactly like the Drive B without the slide

Netplay:
L+R+A/B:  Drop Shot
*Not sure of name almost like the Zero-shiki Drop shot except it just bounces
up and if your opponent does get to it he just smacks it right back

Lob Return:
L+R+A/B:  RONDO TO DESTRUCTION!!!!!(CRAZIEST MOVE EVER!!!!)
*If you can do this you'll be astounded because this move is hellious!!

Smash Return:
None/Unconfirmed
