Bookuma is the truth. I use Tamgief and Bookuma so we are cut from the same cloth.
Special Abilities
Double Jump
Preformed by jumping again while in mid-air, this is a great mobility tool, especially considering how limited aerial movement is in Aquapazza.
It's gonna get crazy~
Manaka's front step (66) is unique as she'll actually begin stumbling ahead backwards. Depending on the attack you press during this action you can preform different actions;
A standing kick that hits low.
B is a "hip press", in which Manaka will ram her lower backside into her opponent. It's an overhead!
C she lifts up her heel and does a reverse kick. This move causes a wall bounce.
I'm sorry
Manaka's 2B has Guard Point properties, so if an opponent's attack should land while 2B is active the move will go throw the attack uninterrupted. So it is possible to counter your opponent's attack string if you time it right in between guarding.
Movement note: Back dash (44), warning subtracts from your Emotion gauge rapidly, make sure to maintain the distance gained.
Specials
W-wait a minute~ (214+X)
A bookcase suddenly appears and you collapse into it, knocking it over, depending on the button pressed power and reach will alter (A having the least and C the most).
I didn't mean to... (236+X)
Fire a stack of books in an arch at your opponent, the button pressed determines the range (A being the shortest and C the farthest). Arguably the best projectile in the game because of it's arch trajectory, ease of spamming, and it's "shrapnel" effect (on impact the books will scatter and retain hitboxes). Air OK. If preformed in the air you will fall to the ground with a stack of books falling slightly in front of you.
R-retreat (623+X)
A bookcase will appear and you will slowly inch toward it, it will protect you from enemy attacks while active, duration is determined by the button pressed (A being the shortest and C the longest).
Supers
Clumsiness! (214214+AB)
An enhanced version of W-wait a minute~, collapse into a bookshelf and set off a chain reaction of multiple falling shelves. Hit or guard, this move has massive push back and forces the opponent to the edge of the screen from anywhere, you could say it's Manaka's "lifeblood" as it put opponents right where you want them.
That wasn't my intention (236236+AB)
An enhanced version of I didn't meant to..., launch a box of books in a wide arch, on impact each individual book has a "shrapnel" effect. Air OK. If preformed in the air you will to the ground with a box of books raining down with you.
Splash Art
Please don't call the Chairmen! (641236+BC)
Causes a multitude of books to rain down a decent distance in front of her.
