* Only Beginner Class:
Automatic combination attack
POWer Special Move
* The !W symbol means that the move requires a weapon
* The !P means that the move becomes more powerful when POW Gauge is MAX
* Power Specials can be done when POW is fully charged
* Rage Explosion: by pressing your POW Meter is replaced by a Rage Meter that is influenced mostly by how much damage you have taken in the current round, and also by how much POW you have built up. So long as your meter remains, you are considered to be POWed up, with regard to super/POW Moves. If this is done, you will have no POW Meter in the following round, assuming the match lasts that long
Combination Slash: after performing the Rage Explosion, you can press to perform a Combination Slash. This drains a bit of your Rage Meter (not the POW Meter), and can be used up to four times. If this connects, it may be followed up with any special move.
Deadly Single Stroke: after performing the Rage Explosion, pressing together will cause your character to go into one superpowerful slash, which will drain your opponent's lifebar dramatically. The amount of damage is inversely proportional to how much life you have left. Can only be used once.
* No Contest Moves: cannot be used when fighting Nakoruru, Rimururu, CPU Amakusa, CPU Zankuro or the last CPU enemy. The motion for these moves is uniform, and will appear on the screen when you are eligible to do them. To make the No Contest available, your opponent must be on the ground at the final blow, and the hit must make him lean forward (as opposed to knocking down or leaning back). The motion will show up onscreen, beneath the timer, and you can perform it then. The motion is and must be performed while it is displayed beneath the timer.
* Honourable Death: you can automatically kill yourself, forfeiting the match to your opponent. Press . The upside of this is that the next round, assuming there is a next round, you will start with full POW.
