Mooglebane

Sounds scary if you can combo into the super from the disc special (and possibly other stuff). Do we know how the super changes if you do the SB version? I don't remember hearing anything about that. Is it just a longer sequence for more damage?

Oh man, this has got to be one of the most depressing Junpei matches I've seen. So sad.

I'm curious about Rise's oki potential. In the Atlus stream last week, one of the guys did sweep into the disc special and got oki from that. Could be the same deal with the lightning rain move as well, sounds pretty decent. As for the rhythm super, you can probably combo into it from an AoA OMC in the corner like Liz does with Ghastly Wail, I'm guessing.

Yes. 100. You know you want it.

FT100 PET vs Hina let's go! There can only be one DA MAN.

Hey, sorry for the late reply. I got in contact with InWithTheAshes, I believe he's in the "official" EU group? Anyways, my Skype's Mooglebane.

I think the buffing was confirmed in an article a while back, not 100% sure though. That pic also shows him at 4 cards as opposed to the 3 in the trailer.

Oh hey, Terumi color confirmed! Title shown as well, "The Egocentric Police Dick".

I'm looking for more EU peeps to play with, I have like 0 MU experience vs most of the cast. I saw something about a Skype group, is that still a thing?

Anyone else think that most Kanjis are, well... kinda bad? I havent seen people utilize all his tools effectively, I see way too many random high jBs that do nothing, and random air cruels. Charge 5B is something I'd like to see utilized way more. Then again, Kanji is hardly played (or at least uploaded) these days.

Yeah, I think the 2 round format hurts Junpei a bit (unless you're really good and on-point most of the time). Gotta make everything count.

Fucking finally! I can't contain my hype any longer, I'm gonna explode. That throw though. Also, did anyone else think that dashing move at around the 1:02 mark looked like Terumi's Snakebite?

Adachi's idle pose makes him look like he has back problems, hah. Really liking all those summoning poses. It ends heyah, Ziodayn!

Finally, some E3 footage. Arcade mode gameplay with Yukari.

Back to the first game's corner bullshit, eh? Just... better this time. I'm scared. ;_;

Ohhh. Damn, never noticed that.

Yes, it does sound worrying at this point. Might have to import. Do we have any E3 gameplay footage yet?

Liberal use of left/right (SB) shenanigans with Sho pls. And as Myoro said, if you feel like throwing the round, try Sho's IK. Good luck!

During the Ultrachen stream when they were answering questions, Yu said they haven't started on the EU build yet and that they don't have a partner for it yet either.

Good post. I definitely agree with the shithead and bully analogy. The differing super usage is an important factor, as Minazuki gets easier/better damage midscreen with it like you said. Nothing to really add here, you pretty much nailed it.

All good points, yeah. At this point in my eyes it just seems that Sho is more dangerous, could be because he isn't played as much as Minazuki is. I usually see Minazuki's Persona attacks blocked easily, no one seems to take any cards though when doing that. I guess they fear the possible tele/knife followup. Having Tsukuyomi adds much more "presence" to 'Zuki compared to just knives though.

Yeah, that's true. They still look cool though, there's that "oomph" to them. And yes, Dazardz, Yukari's combos look very nice as well.

See, this is exactly what I mean. You can 2B Minazuki's teleport if you're looking out for it, the startup is kinda obvious. His Persona moves don't really give him any real pressure in neutral, he can poke from range with his Persona, especially after knives, but that's about it. They feel more like combo fodder to me. In my opinion, the only tool Minazuki has over Sho against non-zoners is the command grab. Sho looks more harder to read and react to with all the (SB) cross-up tele nonsense, while still having the same good normals and specials that Minazuki has (5A, 2A, knives, Destruction, etc.). But yeah, just my two cents, might end up horribly wrong on the matter.

We need more Junpei videos, Strife pls make it happen. Also, who else thinks Junpei has the coolest combos so far? Especially when they end in the Awakening super, that move is so hype.

Yeah, let's hope he's not a pile of gimmicks and a proper character instead. I'm guessing the status effects are inflicted through supers. That would probably be... mostly everyone. Would it be too crazy if Heat Riser was his DP, somehow?
