Yeah it's similar to the Showtime super from Darkstalkers. The difference with this though is I can probably actually complete this one.


I would not be surprised if the move was impractical as hell, but it seems to be a super grab, so who honestly knows?

It's an unblockable hit, she gets the two "!!" before she does it. It comes out slow as hell though, even as a punish its utility is limited.

I would be very happy is someone won a very important game by finishing with the dancing move.

Only SEES, the Investigation Team, and Labrys get a shadow version. Everyone else is just the one version of themselves. Sho gets Minazuki who is something like a shadow mode in that he transfers SP between rounds and can go into Shadow Berserk, but he plays differently from Sho and has a persona with his own set of moves.

So basically...

Shadow Version = Yu, Yosuke, Chie, Yukiko, Kanji, Teddie, Naoto, Rise, Labrys, Junpei, Yukari, Akihiko, Mitsuru, & Kenomaru
No Shadows = Liz, Marge, Adachi, Slabrys, Sho, Minazuki & Marie

Uh, Minazuki has no Shadow Berserk mode. He's a regular character with a burst and a Persona, no SP transfer.

I could've sworn he had SP transfer as I saw him enter a second round and do an IK right away on a computer in arcade mode. This might be before patches though.

Yeah, that's true. It makes me think that maybe the other person is supposed to hit buttons too and the guy playing just didn't know, or something. Lilith's super in Darkstalkers was like ten seconds.

Nope, I was shown it at E3 and was just stuck standing there while I got hit. It was easy to avoid (and in fact the Atlus guy had to beg me to stand still so he could show it to me) but once you're hit it is all on them.

One of his command throws steals SP. P4U might also have the thing Blazblue does where you get full meter taunting the computer, I dunno.

Kanji, Yosuke, and Minazuki. I played Yosuke and Kanji in P4A and both of them got buffed into the stratosphere, but Minazuki has literally everything I want in a fighting game character. He's like a faster Ragna with moves that are actually plus on block and teleports.

Margaret would be cool if she played like Nu did in Blazblue, except with cards instead of laser swords. I just thought she looked badass in P4 with all the tarot cards floating around her while she hovered off the ground.

I liked playing as Labrys and now there are like 6 Labrys's or something so all of those variants.

I'm really digging the changes I've seen for Yukiko, so I'm gonna keep on with her. I might pick up one of the new characters, though; Rise looks like a lot of fun too.

Forest Thief Pud

Probably going to stick with normal Labrys, even if she's gotten her fun string holding tricks taken away from her and is still probably at the bottom. Rise and Minazuki look pretty fun too, but I have a feeling I will be absolutely terrible with them. Knowing my luck though, I will somehow end up with Yukari or Adachi because one of them will click really well with me in terms of their play-style and never let go.

Deciding who you're gonna play before you have a fighting game in your hands always ends badly. I kind of want to try Sho, I forgot which version of him is supposed to be the fun one.

I played and liked Elizabeth in the original, so I'll probably keep up with her at least but I know I want to play Adachi too.

How could that be? Wasn't she already considered one of the weaker characters?

Liz and Labrys (both bottom tier in P4A) got nerfed when P4U came out. Labrys got nerfed a LOT, not sure about how bad Liz got it specifically.

But both of them got small buffs in 1.10 too. I don't think either of them have gotten significantly better, but Labrys actually has a reversal again and Liz actually has damage again.

Some guy on the Atlus P4U stream at EVO won like eight or nine consecutive matches with Liz, take that for what you will? The same thing happened again later with Mitsuru.

Kanji also took a number of hits for some reason. Notably, taking away the invuln from some of his throws, including throw invuln, and doing horrible things to his DP. Arcsys, your hate of grapplers is almost self-parody at this point.

Gwyrgyn Blood

Kanji ended up a fair bit better than before overall though, I guess largely due to his new tackle and improved weak starter combos. And to be fair, his DP was stupid as hell so I'm not sad about that part.

As long as Sho and Chie can still poo poo out damage when the console version comes out like they do now all is right with the world. I dunno about Adachi because we still have seem very little gameplay of him, but if ArcSys' balancing of DLC characters has taught me anything he will be Terumi to Marie's Kokonoe.
