In this guide, I'll show some of her moves and strategies listed here so sit back, relax, make yourselves comfortable and enjoy! ---------- 2. Introduction to Tohno, Akiha ---------- According to Kadsuki's Blue Glass Moon site: Younger sister of Shiki, Akiha is the Tohno Mansion's new head after the death of their father, Tohno Makihisa. She acts and talks as a noble lady but sometimes, she is very short-tempered. She was trained to be a perfect woman during her childhood so she acts with grace and nobility. Kohaku is Akiha's loyal maid. To her, she thinks of Kohaku as a good friend, not as a low class servant. Oh, an important Note: Akiha is insecure with her flat chest, mention it and consider yourself dead. XD ---------- 3. Basic Controls ---------- This is how you will use the "directional pad"... 7 8 9 4 5 6 1 2 3 Instead of using the numerical key for the movelist, I'll use the directional pad method... db- down backward (1) d- down (2) df- down forward (3) b- back (4) n- neutral (5) f- forward (6) ub- up backward (7) u- up (8) uf- up forward (9) A- Weak Attack B- Medium Attack C- Strong Attack D- Parry Blood Heat Mode- during Heat Mode: d,d,d+D (PC Mode) press ABC (AC Mode) Dash- tap f,f Backward Dash- tap b,b Air Dash- in air, tap f,f Backward Air Dash- in air, tap b,b High Jump- d then uf Double Jump- jump then ub,u or uf Guard- b or vice versa Low Guard- db or vice versa Air Guard- ub or vice versa Throw- f/b+C (close range) [PC Mode] f/b+AD (close range) [AC Mode] Interruption- while blocking, d,df,f+D Shield Counter- after a successful parry, d,db,b+D Tactical Recovery- tap f,f/b,b or u,u when knocked down to the ground Air Recovery- tap A,A when knocked in the air ---------- 4. Summarization of Moves (Akiha) ---------- Note: The C Button in most movelist is referred as "Kyou" (Strong) like in Namco X Capcom. Moves with an asterisk '*' means that you can perform it in the air and the Last Arc move, I just named it by myself. Special Moves Air Launcher B,B Tori wo Otosu* d,df,f+A or B Koukumau Tori wo Otosu* d,df,f+C Tsuki wo Ugatsu d,db,b+A or B Tsuki wo Ugatsu (Kyou) d,db,b+C Kemono wo Kougasu d,d+A or B (repeat again to activate) Kemoni wo Kougasu (Kyou) d,d+C (repeat again to activate) Kakuyaku Momiji f,d,df+A or B Kakuyaku Momiji (Kyou) f,d,df+C Heat/Blood Heat Moves Sekishuu Origami b,db,d,df,f+C Last Arc (During Blood Heat Mode) Shin Koukumau Tori wo Otosu Parry attack in middle or low stance 4a.

Combo: A- 3 Hits B- 3 Hits C- 6 Hits Kakuyaku Momiji- f,d,df+A,B or C Akiha dashes and does a swipe upwards then downwards. The B version has a bounce effect.

For close range, she grabs her opponent and releases a huge flame pillar from her hand. tap the C Button for multiple hits.

Combo (Heat Mode): 13 Hits+Wallslam (Long Range) 36 Hits (Close Range) Combo (Blood Heat): 3 Hits (Far away to the opponent) 16 Hits (Near to the opponent) 33-44 Hits (Close to the opponent) Shin Koukumau Tori wo Otosu- During Blood Heat Mode, parry opponent's attack in middle or crouch stance The screen changes and she does a Koukumau Tori wo Otosu above her. Combo: 33-35 Hits ---------- 5. Arcade Mode Strategies ---------- In this mode, there are 4 (2 sub-boss, 2 main boss if you don't lose a battle) bosses and this was tested on Normal Difficulty. Well, I'll list 'em down! 5a. Nanaya, Shiki Damn, he's a total pushover! He likes to teleport and makes a surprise attack above and uses his sweep kick that cancels to his sword flash (kyou). Use Kakuyaku Momiji on him or this combo: B,B, in air A,B then f+C (air combo+throw) over and over. 5b. Ciel Sempai!? Man, she's totally cheap and tends to use her Kouken moves (in air also) not only that, she also uses her Dainana Seiten to finish the job out of you. Perform a combo or Kakuyaku Momiji and always defend when she use her Kouken moves. If you didn't lose a battle once, you will encounter the last 2 bosses. 5c. Shiroi Ren Size DOES matter......anyways, the annoying part is she likes to crouch (that turns her into a cat) and she will do a A combo (sometimes she will cancel it to Fleur Freeze). The cheap way is to get close to her and use combo listed above over and over. Tori wo Otosu or Kemono wo Kougasu is also effective on her. 5d. Aozaki, Aoko Two words on her: TOO CHEAP!! If you try to avoid her, start defending now because she will abuse her "Soul Strike" moves (I like calling it Soul Strike) that will either bounce on the ground or richochet in the screen so get close to her and perform a combo or if you're feeling confident, slap her with the Sekishuu Origami (Heat Mode) and she's done! ---------- 6. The Seiyuu behind her? ---------- Akiha's seiyuu is none othe than hitomi! I'll also list her other characters she took part. Inu Yasha OP2 Theme Song Performance Shuffle! Primula Bakuten Shoot Beyblade Chikushi ---------- 7. Version History ---------- Version 0.1 (June 1, 2006) Started making the guide. Added her movelists and explanation. Added the Arcade Mode Strategies, her seiyuu. Version 0.2 (June 5, 2006) Added Akiha's introduction and the rest of her roles in other anime.... ---------- 8.
