STORY
===============================================================================
Jinsoku Senior High School. At first glance, it`s a school that is everywhere,
with a clique of a gang of four schoolgirl student council-style fighters who
hold the "Tetsuwan" fighting ability beyond the knowledge present there. These
people are called the "Sokkou Seitokai" (Sonic Council) because they overflow
with ambition.
One day, during the "Daiuchuu Kassai" (Cosmic Life Festival), invitations for
tournament participants were received by tournament-style martial arts students
that possess "Tetsuwan" throughout the whole town. They say, seemingly the
power of the universe will be awarded to the winner, but perhaps because of
this shady proclaimation, everyone dunked the letter into the garbage can.
However the four "Sokkou Seitokai," unanimously spoke self-centeredly:
"Machi kire ne~!" ("I can`t wait!")
"Tournament de wa deban ga tarinai." ("They aren`t worthy of my turn in a
tournament.")
"Sonohi haisha .." ("I have the dentist that day ..")
"Igai-sei o motometai." ("I want the unexpected student.")
Violent actions would then come to attack every last one of the students as
they were all seen as participants in the end.
And even though the tournament did not begin, it left only nine people who
included the "Tetsuwan" students of "Sokkou Seitokai" and their rivals, to be
next on the chopping block.

[ Sonic 3 ] ==================================================================
GAME MODES EXPLANATION
===============================================================================
--------------------------------------------------------------------- ( 3.01 )
STORY MODE
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Arcade mode. Select one of the twelve characters (secret characters included;
see "SECRETS / CODES" (7.02) section to find out how to unlock them) to go
through the game. You must defeat eight random opponents in a random order,
followed by Shibata who is the final boss. Once Shibata is defeated, you are
treated with a series of still images and text for their ending.
Losing against an opponent will bring up a Continue screen. You will have ten
seconds to decide on whether or not you wish to continue. Pressing Start will
activate the continue, allowing you to start the stage over against the
opponent that defeated you. Once the timer reaches 0, continuing is disabled
and the game is over.
Progress can be saved for later after the continue timer has expired.
Scores made here are added toward the Top 10 ranking screen. If you continue
from a loss, the score will be reset back to 0.
--------------------------------------------------------------------- ( 3.02 )
VS MODE
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
VS Mode is made for either 1- or 2-players. There are two modes to choose
from: "1P VS CPU" and "1P VS 2P." In each mode, any of the 12 characters can
be selected.
Pressing up allows the player to alter their character`s handicap by adjusting
the number of stars. The less amount of stars, the less damage the character
will do. Five stars is default.
Pressing down allows you to select the DIAGRAM option, which will bring up a
win/loss chart based on characters chosen. You can then save the chart and add
to it the more you play. (Uragiri no Ai`s and Kage Naoko`s stats are added to
Ai Honda`s and Naoko Hattori`s, respectively.)
Stages cannot be selected, they are chosen at random.
--------------------------------------------------------------------- ( 3.03 )
SURVIVAL MODE
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Select one of the twelve characters to fight through a gauntlet of 24 randomly
selected opponents, followed by Shibata who is the final boss. (You fight each
other standard character 3x. You won`t fight against your own character. If
you select Shibata he won`t fight against Ai Honda, and instead fight Uragiri
no Ai as his final boss.) Each fight is only one round. Every time you win
your character gains back lost health, which is added to however much they
have remaining. The amount of this health bonus received gradually decreases
the more you win:
* 1 - 3 wins : 100% life restored * 12 - 15 wins : 25% life restored
* 4 - 7 wins : 50% life restored * 16 - 20 wins : 20% life restored
* 8 - 11 wins : 35% life restored * 21 - 24 wins : 15% life restored
Yaruki Gauge stocks and energy carry over to the next fight.
Losing against an opponent will end Survival Mode. The score made for that
character will be saved.

ds: Ai grabs opponent and tosses them high into the air.
- Unblockable. KNOCKDOWN attack. Throw switches sides.
- Ai`s throw is unique since it sends the opponent into the air, rather
than throw them immediately to the ground. It does very little damage
because alternatively, Ai can juggle the opponent as they are falling
for greater damage. The interesting part is that the damage from the
throw itself will still register in addition to whatever else Ai may
hit the opponent with. All buttons throw the opponent at the same arc
and distance, but the HP/HK-versions give Ai more Yaruki Gauge meter.

opponents, only two hits of each laser blast will connect instead of
the full four if they are not in the corner.
- Shibata is able to move and attack while the blasts are falling.

AYA SAKAI
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A unique character who manipulates the demon pen Dainashi. She is considerably
strong with her skillful techniques, which are often called "long reach is a
big opportunity."
(While Aya is not a complex character by any means, what should be noted is
that a considerable amount of her normal and special attacks revolve around
her living pen, Dainashi. With that being said, Aya more or less will lose a
majority of her strength and abilities temporarily throughout the match
depending on what attacks she does, and how she responds to that "downtime".
In a sense, she is similar to Litchi Faye-Ling from `BlazBlue´.)
* Aya is at her full potential when Dainashi is floating behind her. While
she is in this "Pen Stance," Aya`s basic attacks will do full damage and
she has access to her throw, all her special moves, and both Tetsuwan.
* Aya enters her "No Pen Stance" and becomes separated from Dainashi after
the following attacks: Ten Byou, Maru Be Ta, Ryuu Sen, and Shuu Chuu Sen.
This time of separation can last anywhere between one and four seconds.
Each has its own separation time depending on the attack and/or the button
strength used. HP Ten Byou and Shuu Chuu Sen cause the longest separation.
* Dainashi automatically floats back toward Aya after any attack that would
separate the two. Unlike Naoko Hattori, Aya cannot call Dainashi back to
her faster than its normal movement speed. If Aya is being attacked while
Dainashi is away from her, it will not float back until Aya is not being
hit anymore. This is how to keep Dainashi away from Aya for longer periods
of time.
* While Aya and Dainashi are separated, Aya is still able to move and attack.
However, her entire move list becomes void since she will be unable to
perform any of her special attacks, can`t throw, and can`t use either of
her Tetsuwan until she gains control of Dainashi again. In addition to all
that, a majority of Aya`s basic attacks also will do at least 50% less
damage and have considerably shorter range. Aya mainly uses Dainashi as an
extension to her arms and legs. Without it, Aya still throws her limb out
for an attack, but at a much shorter range.
* In her "No Pen Stance," many of Aya`s chains will be obsolete. Mainly with
her Punch attacks. With Dainashi, Aya can chain s.LP into s.MP or s.MK. She
will not be able to do either if Dainashi is away. She also can`t do d.LP >
d.MP > d.HP. Aya`s Kick chains mainly stay the same that do not utilize HK.
* Since Aya can move while Dainashi is away from her, typically what you want
to do is go toward it to gain control of it faster. Keep in mind that
Dainashi cannot "link" back onto Aya again unless she is on the ground. If
she`s in the air, Dainashi will hover where Aya is, but won`t fully connect
until she lands.
* Below Aya has two sets of basic attack charts: with and without Dainashi.
If an attack is not listed in the "w/o Dainashi" section (ie - s.LK), that
means it has the same damage and properties as it does if Aya has her pen.
In most cases Dainashi is used with Aya`s punch attacks, but she also uses
it for most of her HKs as well. If you also notice, s.HK will not hit at
all if Aya does not have Dainashi.

Ninpou Ba Gu, and Chou Ninpou: Suisei Otoshi. She gains no special moves
to make up for this loss.
* Can chain HP > HK while dashing.
* Can cancel out of all normal and dashing attacks, including HP and HK.
* Can cancel out of the Tettsui.
* Does not immediately turn around to face the opponent after hitting with
Dashing LP. Kage Naoko continues to face the way she was going initially,
and any follow-up chained attack will also be aimed in that direction.
* Does not leap to the top of the screen at the start of the Chou Ninpou:
Baku En En Bu; instead, starts mid-wall.

ds: Naoko jumps back against the wall, then leaps across the screen to the
opposite wall while raining down five bombs that explode when they hit
the ground.
- KNOCKDOWN attack.
- LAUNCHES; opponent vulnerable for a juggle.
- Kage Naoko does not leap as high as normal Naoko does at the start. She
instead leaps back to the middle of the back wall. All this really does
is cause the bombs to explode faster since they have less time to fall.
- Typically only one or two blasts will hit. But in actuality, each bomb
causes two explosions: the impact blast and a larger, follow-up blast.
Both of them follow right behind each other. The only way to get three
blasts to connect is if the opponent is directly underneath one of the
bombs. That way they take the two hits from that bomb, then the second
blast from an adjacent explosion.
- Naoko`s placement of where she lands after the Chou Ninpou: Baku En En
Bu can be adjusted. If no direction is held during, Naoko will land
somewhere around mid-screen. However, holding either left or right
makes Naoko land toward that side of the screen.
- It is possible to hit the exploded opponent with an attack as they are
falling back to the ground. It normally is easier if the opponent is
near one side of the screen, and you make Naoko land on that side and
attack them once in range.

of pushing the grind, she has a sense of going forward to attack all around
the opponent`s character.

- Mika is able to hit with her vertical spinning attack that starts the
Space Canyon. If it hits, the comet punch is guaranteed. Should the
comet punch miss, Mika still slides along the ground until her momentum
stops, leaving her vulnerable.
- If only the comet punch hits, that attack will instead do +100 damage
since there is no damage scaling from the initial attack. It will also
cause WALL SLAM instead of a normal knockdown.
- The comet punch tracks, meaning Mika will fly down toward wherever the
opponent is located.

NAOKO HATTORI
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Her strong point is timed attacks in cooperation with her ninja-cat Gander-
maru, making her a technical and tricky character. She is a step back from
Ishida`s speed, but Naoko`s pace is always an unexpected attack in this world!
(Naoko uses her pet ninja-cat Gander-maru in some of her special and Tetsuwan
attacks.)
* Unlike Aya Sakai, Naoko is not overly dependent on Gander-maru like Aya is
with Dainashi. She doesn`t lose any of her physical strength or range when
Gander-maru is away from her, but will temporarily not be able to use the
Nin Neko Otoshi, Ninpou Ba Gu, or her Chou Ninpou: Suisei Otoshi.
* Sometimes attacks that smash against the ground will cause Gander-maru to
get knocked back away from Naoko. The only problem this does is that it may
cause Naoko to use her Neko o Yobu rather than a special attack if he is
not close enough.
* Gander-maru automatically walks back to Naoko after any attack that would
separate the two. She can speed up his return by using the Neko o Yobu
whenever he is away. Keep in mind that Gander-maru isn`t glued to Naoko`s
side, so even some of Naoko`s jumps, dashes and attacks will cause enough
separation between the two of them where she will instead call him rather
than use her special attack.

speed will only increase the one time. However Naoko still gains Yaruki

cm: qcf + KK
ht: Power 1 (3100)
ds: Naoko holds her arm out as Gander-maru leaps on it to perch, then tosses
him into the air while she dashes forward. If she grabs opponent, Naoko
will hold onto them as Gander-maru rockets downward at a 45º angle like a
comet to slam into the ground and cause an explosion.
- Unblockable. KNOCKDOWN attack.
- Requires Gander-maru to be at Naoko`s side.
- If Naoko misses the dashing grab, she will instead stumble and fall to
the ground. Gander-maru still rockets downward and explodes, but will
smash into Naoko and hit her for 300 damage. This can indeed defeat
Naoko and award the opponent with a Super victory! If the dash is
missed but the opponent is still close to the downed Naoko, Gander-maru
will smash into _both_ of them for damage.
- If Naoko misses the dashing grab, but is hit be an attack before she
falls on the ground, she will instead return to her neutral stance. But
Gander-maru still rockets down to impact the ground like normal.
jp: chou ninpou: baku en en bu
en: Super Ninja Arts: Blast Flame Monkey Dance
cm: qcb + KK
ht: Power 1~3 (1200/hit)
ds: Naoko jumps back high against the wall, then leaps across the top of the
screen to the opposite wall while raining down five bombs that explode
when they hit the ground.
- KNOCKDOWN attack.
- LAUNCHES; opponent vulnerable for a juggle.
- Typically only one or two blasts will hit. But in actuality, each bomb
causes two explosions: the impact blast and a larger, follow-up blast.
Both of them follow right behind each other. The only way to get three
blasts to connect is if the opponent is directly underneath one of the
bombs. That way they take the two hits from that bomb, then the second
blast from an adjacent explosion.
- Naoko`s placement of where she lands after the Chou Ninpou: Baku En En
Bu can be adjusted. If no direction is held during, Naoko will land
somewhere around mid-screen. However, holding either left or right
makes Naoko land toward that side of the screen.
- It is possible to hit the exploded opponent with an attack as they are
falling back to the ground. It normally is easier if the opponent is
near one side of the screen, and you make Naoko land on that side and
attack them once in range.

- Must be guarded HIGH.
- A 'kasaya' is a monk`s stole, which is worn across the chest over one
shoulder. This attack is saying that Katou`s kick comes down from the
shoulder to swipe across the opponent`s chest in the same manner.

HP 2 (100, 1200; 3.8, 2.6)
ds: Katou charges up an energy sphere in his palm, then thrusts it forward
with his palm.
- Holding the Punch button will charge up the Gengen Oshikiri Shou,
changing its hitbox. Each button strength changes the reach and/or area
in a different way (at full charge):
* LP: Increases the height to full screen.
* MP: Increases the height to 50%, and reaches 1/2 screen distance.
* HP: Increases reach to 3/4 screen distance.
- Each button strength has three different appearances the blast can hit,
depending on how long the button is held. Holding the button between 1-
2 seconds causes an intermediate blast. Holding for 3 seconds causes
the full blast. Katou will automatically release the palm blast after
three seconds.
- Regardless on how long you hold the button doesn`t change the amount of
damage the blast does, nor how much Yaruki Gauge meter is gained. Only
the hitbox changes.

cm: qcf + K
ht: LK/MK/HK 0 (0; 3.6)
ds: Katou charges up an energy sphere in his palm.
- This is a fake version of the Gengen Oshikiri Shou.
- Despite how the name of the move translates, Katou doesn`t dodge any
attacks during his stance.
- The charge alters in three different durations, depending on what
button is used. The stronger the button, the longer the charge.
- As you can see, all versions give around four units of Yaruki Gauge
energy. The LK-version is very fast, only about 4-frames long, and puts
Katou back in neutral stance. Meaning you can literally repeat the LK
Gengen Katasukashi over and over to gain ridiculous amounts of Yaruki
Gauge energy during times you have a few moments of freedom.

opponent, he picks them up and jumps, slamming them head first down into
the ground in a powerbomb.

ht: Power 1 (2700)
ds: Katou gathers energy into a palm, then swings it forward in a swatting
motion.
- Unblockable.
- Can be Chou-Canceled.
- The range of the Tooshi is smaller than what it appears. It you look
closely at the screen when you do it, the swat causes a rippling effect
around Katou`s palm. Don`t assume that whole area is the hitbox. Katou
actually has to hit the opponent with his palm for the Tooshi to
connect, meaning he pretty much has to be right next to them.

ds: Katou gathers energy between his palms in the shape of a sphere, then
advances forward. If he hits a grounded opponent, he carries them across
the screen to slam against the wall.
- KNOCKDOWN attack.
- If guarded, hits four times.
- Consists of two hit properties. Katou`s forward advance hit is the one
that does 2000 damage. Only if that hits a grounded opponent will he
carry them across the entire width of the stage to hit the wall, where
that additional hit will do another 700 damage. If Katou hits an
airborne opponent, he won`t carry them. Regardless on how it hits, the
advancing thrust will always cause a knockdown.

- Unblockable. KNOCKDOWN attack. Throw switches sides.
- Ai`s throw is unique since it sends the opponent into the air, rather
than throw them immediately to the ground. It does very little damage
because alternatively, Ai can juggle the opponent as they are falling
for greater damage. The interesting part is that the damage from the
throw itself will still register in addition to whatever else Ai may
hit the opponent with. All buttons throw the opponent at the same arc
and distance, but the HP/HK-versions give Ai more Yaruki Gauge meter.

- The LP-version pops the opponent high into the air, allowing Ai to land
and hit the burning opponent with another attack. In the corner (and
character dependent) she can juggle with attacks like Standing LK or
Crouching HP. In the open she can hit with Standing HP or another Honda
Taikuu, for example.

- Ai can be damaged by the iron ball herself. If she is hit with an
attack before the throwing animation completes, the iron ball will fall
atop her head to hit her for 3200 damage. This can indeed defeat Ai and
award the opponent with a Super victory! If Ai is hit, she gains about
16 units of Yaruki Gauge meter back, so chances are high she`ll get the
stock of her failed Tetsuwan returned to her.

cancel into a Mega Honda Dive, it can only be done once. Canceling
into the Mega Honda Dive can only be done on the second or fourth hit,
whereas canceling into the Honda Ranbu can only be done on the first or
fourth hit (before Ai leaves the ground).

- Tracks the opponent`s location.
- If Ai is too close to the opponent, the explosion will hit her for 2000
damage. This can indeed defeat Ai and award the opponent with a Super

ds: Ishida kicks his leg up vertically.
jp: densou kyaku konbine-shon
en: Electric Leg Combination
ds: A set of three alternate electric kicks attacks Ishida can link together.
- The Densou Kyaku Combination (DKC) consists of three separate attacks:
Rai Jin Shuu, Rai Sen Geki, and Rai Zan Kyaku. They can each be linked
together after one another _only_ if the previous kick connects with
the opponent (either hit or guarded). Once one hits, Ishida is able to
immediately cancel into another kick. (This includes the air versions.)
Ishida can only do a maximum of three hits from the entire combination.
- Typically the series is done in strength order: Rai Jin Shuu > Rai Sen
Geki > Rai Zan Kyaku. But the DKC is flexible enough to allow Ishida to
start with _any_ kick and move from there. So the combination can also
go in reverse: Rai Zan Kyaku > Rai Sen Geki > Rai Jin Shuu. Or he can
perform the Rai Sen Geki and go in either direction.
- Ishida cannot repeat a specific kick attack in any string he performs.
So if he hits an opponent with the Rai Jin Shuu, then chains into the
Rai Sen Geki to send them both into the air, Ishida can`t finish the
combination with another Rai Jin Shuu or Rai Sen Geki. Only a Rai Zan
Kyaku can be done to complete the string.

attacks, and projectiles. If Ishida is hit by an attack while his back
is turned, he receives no damage and counters with a large crescent-
style kick that will KNOCKDOWN the opponent.
- The stance alters in three different durations, depending on what
button is used. The stronger the button, the longer Ishida will stay
with his back turned.

still do the Yuuko Slash. This typically gives enough time to perform a
normal attack before finishing the command and both will be executed.
- The HP-version can combo, but depends where Yuuko is. If she is full
screen away, or next to the opponent, the blasts normally will combo.

- KNOCKDOWN attack. The HP-version`s second hit will cause the knockdown.
On small characters (ie - Ishida, Mika), even Ai, the second hit will
not connect if they are on the ground.
- After charging down for the minimum two seconds, Yuuko can "store" her
charge for a half-second. Meaning you can release down and wait a
moment before you press up and the attack button, and Yuuko will still
do the Yuuko Intellectual. This typically gives enough time to perform
a normal attack before finishing the command and both will be executed.

[ Sonic 6 ] ==================================================================
SYSTEM DISSECTION
===============================================================================
--------------------------------------------------------------------- ( 6.01 )
MOVEMENT: WALKING / DASHING / JUMPING
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+-- [ Walking / Dashing ] --------------------------------------------------+
Each character can walk forward and backward on the playing field, and jump in
any upward direction. Characters also are able to both dash (press f,f) and
backdash (press b,b), which increases the speed of movement in that direction.
Forward dashing not only provides momentum, which will allow the character to
get in "deeper" against an opponent to attack, but also changes everyone`s
basic attacks into "dashing attacks," which are alternate versions of each
character`s standard Punches and Kicks. Dashing attacks all have different
animation, and some have alternate properties than their standing counterparts
(ie - Ishida`s Standing HK is MID, but his Dashing HK is HIGH and launches).
Dashing can be canceled by pressing either back or down on the joystick before
it ends. The character will skid to a halt where you command them to.
+-- [ Jumping ] ------------------------------------------------------------+
Along with the normal jump, characters are also able to perform a dash jump.
- Dash jumping is an extended forward jump. As the character is forward
dashing, pressing up-forward will cause the character to jump much further
across the screen; twice as far than what a normal jump would reach.
Rika Sanada has a special 'Super Jump' special move which causes her to flip
forward a great distance of the screen. Unlike a jump, she is unable to do any
type of attack during it other than her 'Kyuukouka Geri' attack.
--------------------------------------------------------------------- ( 6.02 )
ATTACKING
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
`Sokkou Seitokai: Sonic Council´ utilizes six attack buttons: Light, Medium,
and Heavy Punch (X-, Y-, and Z-button), and Light, Medium, and Heavy Kick (A-,
B-, and C-button). Stereotypically, 'Light' attacks are very fast to execute,
but do little damage. Whereas 'Heavy' attacks are powerful, but much slower.
Characters are allowed to attack while standing, crouching, jumping, or
dashing.
Most jumping attacks have two animations: ascending and descending. Each of
the "ascend" versions are jumping attacks done between the times when the
character leaves the ground and before reaching their apex. "Descend" attacks
are done after the character hits their apex, before they land.
Some characters also have alternate forms of attacks when a direction is held
in conjunction with the button press. Katou`s Standing MK is a MID kick, but
when you press forward while pressing MK, he will do a crescent kick that
doubles as a HIGH overhead attack.
--------------------------------------------------------------------- ( 6.03 )
GUARDING
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Characters are able to guard against attacks in three ways:
------------------+------------------+---------------------+---------------
Guard Type | Defensive Input | Guards Against | Vulnerable To
------------------+------------------+---------------------+---------------
Standing Guard Hold back HIGH & MID attacks LOWs, throws
Crouching Guard Hold down-back LOW & MID attacks HIGHs, throws
Air Guard Hold any 'back' --- ---
Guarding is accomplished by holding a backward direction (away from the
opponent) while your character is not otherwise occupied performing an attack.
Holding back on the joystick as your character is being attacked will have
them take up a standing defensive stance, which protects them against both
MID- and HIGH-level attacks. (HIGH attacks typically included all jumping/
aerial attacks and overhead-type moves.)
Alternately, holding down-back on the joystick as your character is being
attacked will have them take up a crouching defensive stance, which protects
them against both MID- and LOW-level attacks. (This is typically the way you
want to guard most of the time while on the ground.)
In the air, you can guard by holding any of the back directions (b, ub, or db)
as you are being attacked.
Throwing attacks - normal throws (when close, f + MP / MK / HP / HK) and
command throws (ie - Tesshou Katou`s Jumping Powerbomb) - can`t be guarded.
While guarding is a way to protect your character from taking a lot of damage,
there are still attacks and moves which will tick away at the character`s
life bar. Most special moves and Supers will still deal damage even when
guarded - this is called 'chip damage'. Chip damage amounts to about 30% of
the damage an attack would have caused if it wasn`t guarded.
--------------------------------------------------------------------- ( 6.04 )
THROWING
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- When close to an opponent on the ground, b / f + MP / MK / HP / HK
Throws (Nage) are unblockable moves that each character possesses at least one
of. Only ground throws can be performed; there are no aerial throws.
Some characters possess two different throws with both the MP / HP and MK / HK
buttons (ie - Yuuko), while others have the same throw regardless of what
button used (ie - Ai).
All characters are able to peform a throw by either pressing back or forward
on the joystick as the button is pressed. This can prove to be very important
to determine which direction the opponent is thrown on screen.
Throws cannot be escaped.
Tesshou Katou and Yuuko Sakakibara both have command throws in addition to
their normal throws, which are throwing techniques that require a joystick
command rather than just holding forward or back.
--------------------------------------------------------------------- ( 6.05 )
SONIC SHIFT
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- P + K during guardstun
- Requires one (1) stock of Yaruki Gauge.
The Sonic Shift is an evasion technique that allows your character a way to
get out of situations that would normally pressure or trap them, and thus
giving the player a chance to shift the momentum.
As you guard against an attack, pressing any Punch and Kick button
simultaneously (or the R-shoulder button) will cause your character to "warp"
forward 1/3 screen distance. If the opponent is close, this method may cause
the character to end up behind them. The screen flashes when a Sonic Shift is
executed, but the action doesn`t pause any during it. The character will come
out of a Sonic Shift with no recovery frames, leaving them able to move or
attack immediately.
--------------------------------------------------------------------- ( 6.06 )
LIFE GAUGE
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Tairyoku ("life") Gauges are the yellow bars both placed at the top of the
screen on either side of the round timer - Player 1`s is on the left side and
Player 2`s is the right. Each player`s life gauge begins with a full 10,000
units of health. During battle, attacks take away a certain amount of life
units. The red area is how much stamina the character has lost thus far. Once
the entire meter is red, that means all their life points are gone and the
character is defeated. The round goes to the winner.
If the time expires, the character with the most life wins the round. If the
bars are equal, the match is considered a draw and another round will begin.
To maintain a sense of balance, some characters take a different amount of
damage than others. The archetype is that bulkier and heavier characters take
less damage, while the more smaller and fragile ones take the most. This type
of system more or less holds true in `Sokkou Seitokai: Sonic Council´:
-------------------------+-----------------------+-------------------------
Takes Least Damage | Takes Average Damage | Takes Most Damage
-------------------------+-----------------------+-------------------------
(Uragiri) Ai Honda -4% Kumiko Gotou Yuuko, Aya, Rika +2%
Tesshou Katou -6% (Kage) Naoko, Mika +6%
Akio Shibata -8% Yasunori Ishida +12%
Using a base combo, Kumiko takes the moderate amount of damage. Using that
same combo, Shibata typically receives about 8% less damage, whereas it would
inflict nearly 12% more damage to Ishida.
--------------------------------------------------------------------- ( 6.07 )
YARUKI (MOTIVATION) GAUGE
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Yaruki ("motivation") Gauges are both located at the bottom of the screen,
parallel to the life bars - Player 1`s on the left side and Player 2`s on the
right side. Each gauge is 22 units long (11 yellow, 6 orange, 5 red). Yaruki
Gauge energy is gained whenever a character performs an attack (regardless of
if it hits, misses, or guarded), is hit by an opponent`s attack, or guards an
opponent`s attack.
Once the Yaruki Gauge has been filled, the large number beside the gauge will
increase. This number indicates the amount of stocks the character has gained.
A character can hold a maximum of ten stocks. When the tenth stock is gained,
the word "MAX" will replace the number.
Stocks of Yaruki Gauge are needed for the following:
-------------------------+--------------------+----------------------------
Ability | Yaruki Gauge Cost | Purpose
-------------------------+--------------------+----------------------------
Sonic Shift 1 stock Evasion
Tetsuwan Hissatsu Waza 1 stock Damage, combo extension
Stocks and Yaruki Gauge energy are able to transcend rounds. (During Survival
Mode, they will transcend matches.)
--------------------------------------------------------------------- ( 6.08 )
IDOU OKIAGARI (RISING MOVEMENT)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Hold b / f after knockdown
Idou Okiagari is an technique that allows your character a way to get off the
ground after a knockdown at a different location.
After your character has been knocked down to the ground, holding either
forward or back on the joystick will make them slide in that direction 1/3
screen distance before they stand up. If the opponent is close, this method
will cause the character to end up behind them.
--------------------------------------------------------------------- ( 6.09 )
SONIC COMBOS / CHAINS / JUGGLES
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+-- [ Sonic Combos / Chains ] ----------------------------------------------+
Sonic Combos are sequences of basic attacks chained together by pressing
attack buttons one after another. Most basic attacks chain upward in strength,
from (L) Light to (M) Medium to (H) Heavy. Chains are possible while standing,
crouching, or dashing. Not everyone can perform a full chain, or link together
all of their attacks.
The `Sonic Council´ combo engine basically follows the "Hunter Series" (Full
Alternating) archetype (based from the `Vampire/Darkstalkers´ games). Meaning
that characters may chain one of each ground attack together from weakest to
strongest (LP > LK > MP > MK > HP > HK).
Punches ( LP ) ----- > ( MP ) ----- > ( HP )
| \ > | \ > |
| \ / | \ / |
| / \ | / \ |
V / > V / > V
Kicks ( LK ) ----- > ( MK ) ----- > ( HK )
( from p10 of the instruction manual )
Attacks must increase in strength to keep the Sonic Combo going. Using the
above chart, if Yuuko hits an opponent with LP, she then can go to either LK,
MP, or MK. If she chooses to chain LK next, then she must move to either MP or
MK, and onward. You are not allowed to go from a Kick up to the same strength
Punch (ie - LK to LP); the Punch must have a higher strength button.
Due to their speed, all characters have the ability to chain the same strength
Light attacks into each other repeatedly. This is called "Rapid Fire Light
Attacks." Not everyone`s Light attacks will combo off one another (ie - Mika`s
Standing LKs). Whenever desired, you can then transition from the rapid fire
light attacks into the rest of the Sonic Combo chain.
Some characters are able to skip the Medium-level attacks and instead chain
directly from Light to Heavy (ie - LP > LK > HP).
As the "(Full Alternating)" subtype suggests, characters are also able to
shift between standing (s.) and crouching (c.) in the midst of their chain.
Naoko can do s.LP > s.LK > c.MK > c.HP > s.HK.
The Sonic Combo chaining system can also be utilized as the character is
dashing forward (d.). Ai can do d.LP > d.LK > d.MP > d.MK > d.HK. Do note that
while dashing, characters are unable to alternate into crouching attacks.
(Kumiko is the only exception, who can chain her d.LK > c.MP.)
+-- [ Juggles ] ------------------------------------------------------------+
Juggling is the ability to combo the opponent while they are in the air, stuck
in aerial hitstun.
Juggling the opponent is not as rampant in `Sonic Council´ like it is in some
other fighting games. It typically only happens at the end of combos that have
a LAUNCHER-type attack, and most times against the corner. The system has a
sort of gravity to it, meaning that as you juggle the opponent, it will start
to pull them toward the ground so that only a couple of attacks can be used.
--------------------------------------------------------------------- ( 6.10 )
CANCELING / CHOU-CANCEL
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+-- [ Canceling ] ----------------------------------------------------------+
To 'cancel' means to interrupt the recovery of one action into another action.
Most basic attacks are chain-cancelable into other basic attacks or command
attacks, or into special moves and Tetsuwan Hissatsu Waza.
At its most basic, a cancel looks like this: c.MK XX Rai Jin Shuu
Ishida can hit the opponent with his Crouching MK, and while they are still in
hitstun, link into his Rai Jin Shuu (qcf + LK) special attack, thus creating a
two-hit combo.
Older fighting game community (FGC) jargon for a cancel is called a "2-in-1,"
meaning to link 'two' moves in 'one' motion/command.
+-- [ Chou-Cancel ] --------------------------------------------------------+
Chou-Cancel ("super cancel") is the method of canceling where a special attack
is canceled into a Tetsuwan Hissatsu Waza.
- Rai Jin Shuu CC Chou Jigensen Tou Sai
The same principle applies as with normal canceling, inputting the command of
the Tetsuwan Hissatsu Waza - Chou Jigensen Tou Sai (f,d,df + KK) - while the
opponent is in hitstun from the Rai Jin Shuu.
Some characters have Tetsuwan Hissatsu Waza which can _also_ be canceled into
a secondary Tetsuwan. Not all Tetsuwan can be canceled in this way.

DIZZY & RECOVERY
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A Dizzy occurs to a player when they have taken a substantial amount of heavy
attacks in succession. To which it will knock them down, and they stand up in
a dizzy status ailment. Their stance will look disoriented as a single star
revolves around their heads. While dizzy, a player is left vulnerable until
they manage to recover out of it.
Unattended, a dizzy will last about three seconds. To end the dizzy status
faster, rapidly press the buttons and rotate the joystick around.
--------------------------------------------------------------------- ( 6.12 )
CHOUHATSU (TAUNT)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A Chouhatsu ("taunt") is performed by pressing the L-shoulder button. Its sole
purpose is to mock the opponent.
--------------------------------------------------------------------- ( 6.13 )
TIER LISTING
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[ - S Tier - ] [ - A Tier - ] [ - B Tier - ] [ - C Tier - ] [ - D Tier - ]
Akio Shibata Kumiko Gotou Yuuko S. Y. Ishida Tesshou Katou
Uragiri no Ai Aya Sakai Rika Sanada Mika Ii Naoko Hattori
Ai Honda Kage Naoko
Popular fighting games sites like Shoryuken.com have not yet, to my knowledge,
gotten around to breaking apart this game. But Gamest themselves held many
tournaments in Japan when this game came out in the arcades, and included the
ranking results diagram into the game itself. There are also a couple of small
Japanese message boards (albeit very old) who have taken the characters and
broken them down into tier listings. So the above list is a combination of all
of that information, with some of my own unbiased input coaxed in.
[S+] AKIO SHIBATA: trackable and spammable Hansha Laser Hou to keep opponent
on lockdown, and provide great oki; strong physical attacks; many attacks
cause LAUNCHING; freezing throw to combo off of; corner trap laser combos able
to do 90%+ damage; slow speed but makes up for it by long reaching s.HK, c.HP,
j.MK, Hadou Hou Ken, and Hadou Gekihou.
[S] URAGIRI NO AI: one of the few characters who can stand toe-to-toe against
Shibata without a problem; can cancel out of all of her normal attacks unlike
normal Ai; great zoning by spamming Jinkou Tobidougu; two unblockable Supers.
[A+] KUMIKO GOTOU: lots of attacks cause KNOCKDOWN or WALL SLAM, allowing her
to play a heavy wakeup game; many of her normal attacks do 900+ damage alone;
combos typically end with a Satsu Ma Kyuu: 1-gou for the GROUND BOUNCE damage
options; counters for all physical attacks; range to counter Aya.
[A] AYA SAKAI: great reach as long as Dainashi is with her; mostly all attacks
utilize Dainashi, so Aya has many gaps where she can`t use special attacks;
Aya left a lot of times vulnerable if her specials are avoided; mostly played
safely, using only attacks she needs to just outside of the opponent`s range;
unblockable setups utilizing Maru Be Ta.
[A-] AI HONDA: high damage normals and specials; even her easy combos can deal
about 30-40% damage; invincible uppercut; unblockable Super can catch on both
ground or air, and during guardstun; Honda Flame good for oki to stop rising
attacks.
[B] YUUKO SAKAKIBARA: another balanced character with an answer for nearly all
situations, but doesn`t excel in any of them; solid pressure with usage of
Yuuko Slashes and Death Yuuko; full dashing chain combo; most combos don`t do
more than 15-20%; gets the majority of her damage by utilizing her many chains
and hitting with stray Yuuko Slashes; both Supers heavily punishable on guard.
[B-] RIKA SANADA: most balanced character; hard to get in against due to Drill
and Star; semi-useless guard break; potentially the strongest Super in the
game if both hits of the Ankoku-shiki Circular Guillotine connect; not many
amazing combos, but her dashing LP > LK > HK chain launches to open up good
juggle damage options.
[C] YASUNORI ISHIDA: fastest character in the game; below average damage on
attacks; Densou Kyaku Combination can be utilized for some interesting combos,
but can leave him vulnerable; counterattack move of the gods! Sei Jyuu Tai can
easily be spammed and used against nearly anything to stop or counter normals,
projectiles, and Supers while also making Ishida take no damage!; one of the
few characters who can easily give higher ranked characters a difficult fight.
[C-] MIKA II: very short-ranged attacks; combo strings can whiff because of
her range; a lot of her attacks leave her vulnerable with negative frames on
guard; can be extremely hard to hit due to her size; a bit evasive with her
Spiral Screw and Circus Metro; Space Canyon can be great anti-air or counter
on wakeup when up close.
[D+] TESSHOU KATOU: stereotypical throw character, but not all that slow; able
to gain Yaruki meter insanely faster than any other character by spamming LK
Gengen Katasukashi; Jumping Powerbomb setups typically make up the most of his
overall big damage; unblockable Super, but very short-ranged; dashing combo
chain does nearly 25% damage; still a huge target with no real great counter
to pressure or rushdown.
[D] NAOKO HATTORI: overall weak damage, but several fast cross-up and mix-up
options to use and try and score as much damage as possible; tricky oki and
wakeup game with usage of Gander-maru; full-screen Super option, and one that
can potentially damage Naoko herself slightly.
[D-] KAGE NAOKO: without her cat, loses half of her special moves and setup
with nothing much added to make up for the loss.

REVISION HISTORY
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
v. 12.o // 2013.03.10
- Added the seiyuu information for all the characters if anyone is interested.
v. 11.o // 2013.02.27
- A lot of corrections and additions to many of the System Dissection sections
and Game Modes Explanations. Also the Story text has been translated.
v. 10.5 // 2013.01.27
- Corrected information on Survival Mode.
v. 10.o // 2013.01.22
- Edited and updated information for Uragiri no Ai, Kage Naoko, and Aya Sakai.
v. 9.o // 2013.01.12
- Like with most of my FAQs, there is a huge gap in between the last updated
version and this newer format. This one is twelve years, but I doubt that
anyone noticed. All in all, information for every character, including all
the hidden ones, has all been included and revamped with as much detail and
tech that I could discover.
v. 8.o // 2000.12.17
- Yeah it`s been a while since there was an update to this, so I went and put
in everything that needed to be. The biggest change would be the format in
which information is listed. Also broke apart the entire game system to
explain it to anyone who is new to the game. Combos have all been put into
their own separate FAQ. A couple of minor "secrets" added as well.
v. 7.o // 1999.10.04
- Finally got an update on this FAQ. Mainly a lot of editing on combos and
information. Added Shibata`s moves as well.
v. 6.o // 1999.02.24
- Getting around to translating the story, but I added what is says in
Roumaji. Also working on translating Ai`s winning quotes. Put in name
translations, and did a lot of editing on characters and their combos.
v. 5.o // 1998.12.15

FINAL NOTE
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Oss`!
I first saw the game reviewed in GameFan (Volume 6, Issue 5, May 1998 - MK4
cover); and after reading up on it, it seemed to have a lot of redeeming
qualities. After all it was backed and co-created by Gamest, the most prolific
Japanese gaming magazine at that time. Once my friend brought it back for me
from Japan as a present (I couldn`t find any import store online that sold
it), I literally pulled an all-nighter playing it. This game was huge in Japan
during 1999; being the focus of large tournaments that was covered in Gamest
spanning -weeks-. This game is not as in-depth as a Street Fighter II by any
means, but still is a solid "anime" fighting game that is worth the purchase.
