That's any grappler archetype. If they get where they want to be, you're going to have to guess. You have DP, roll, hop/jump, mash or just blocking as your defensive options. You just have to make the right guess.
Overall, the match is pretty easy for yukiko. the only time I ever lose to Kanijis is when I'm feeling myself too hard and take unnecessary risks, or the Kanji player is just really smart.
