These two distant worlds have been connected from the past by the Gate of Hell, guarded by four deities who must always stay in the shadows of history. As time passed and 200 years from the reign of the Tokugawa Government, people began to fear as their shallow world of peace quickly faded away with the rumors of the resurrecting Demon. The long peace which had taken place not only pressed greater fear amongst the people but also took away the swords and samurais, leaving almost no hope. But not all hope was lost. There were still those with hope and hearts of fire. ...And there were those with lust for the Demon. Thus the last of the fighters began their journey, to learn and finish whatever destiny awaited for them. ----------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ [ T H E C H A R A C T E R S ] \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 時代を継ぐ少年　楓　 Kaede "Shining Soul" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- The main character.

Having mysterious powers, it was not rare for him to surprise them, as well as himself.

It did not take long for the group to figure out his true reason of joining, and Shikyoh escaped before they could prosecute him. Storyline: The Gate of hell and the rumor of the Demon's resurrection did nothing to Shikyoh but make him want to kill even more. But for Shikyoh it meant nothing to kill commoners; what he really wanted to massacre were a preys that fought back well so that it would satisfy his quench for good blood. When a mysterious man appeared in front of Shikyoh and told him that there were prey to be found, it was eminent for Shikyoh to accept the offer. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - SPECIAL MOVES - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Slippery crawl fw,bk,fw + C Bold Eagle Swoop QCB + A or B, then up + B Rotation Eviscavotion fw,dn,fwdn + A or B, then rapid A or B Weasel 's Slash HCF + A or B Scissor Slice Jump, QCB + B No Mercy Thrust near, HCB + C Down attack followup during down attack, wriggle joystick [ Super special ] * Delirium Drubber QCF x 2 + AB [ P.Super special ] ** Wildhunger Whallop QCF x 2 + B ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 江戸の喧嘩桜　天野 漂 Hyou Amano "Romancing Wanderer" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 28 years old.

Moving only in the shadow of history, many of Zantetsu's fellow ninjas deceased in wars and when Zantesu realized, he was the only remaining ninja. As Ninjas were quickly becoming the thing of the past, Zantetsu tries to prove that ninjas are the ultimate warriors. Storyline: "There is no one stronger than I. No, there cannot exist such a thing..." His voice faded into the darkness just like himself, and where he stood there was another corpse. The fighter who foolishly considered himself to be the strongest was no stronger than a new born baby in the hands of Zantetsu. "No, this doesn't prove my strength at all..." In other words his present action was just a "normal murder", not a challenge to the death. As Zantetsu searches for a proof of his strength, he hears to rumors of the Demon's resection and travels to find the Demon, hoping that its death will be the final proof of invincibility. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - SPECIAL MOVES - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Sky Demon Kick Jump, dn + C follow up dn + C Dash Slash During dash, B RYUUEI JIN Flowing Shadow Fury [ QCF + A or B ] x 2 　 KOUTACHI KAI Iron Cleaver fw,HCF + B　 KIKOHOU Temper Thrust QCB + B　 SUIMEN KAKURE Underwater Undulation bk,dn,bkdn + A　 OBOROKIRI Sommersault Kick fw,dn,fwdn + C　 Kunai Jump, QCF + A or B　 Shadow Drop near, HCB + C 　 [ Super special ] * Praying Mantis Pounce QCB,QCF + AB follow up 1.

Shigen felt his muscle powered up more than twice before he was sealed, and his muscle burst in anger. Inside his anger and pain, Shigen's control over himself was of no more. The only thing left in his mind was revenge towards a name... a name that echoed in his head all ten years. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - SPECIAL MOVES - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Air Throw in air, any direction except up + B or C Dash Blow during dash, C Counter Blow bk + B SHIRAKO SOU White Tiger Talon QCB + A or B RETSU HOERU Exploding Spirit Blast fw,dn,fwdn + A or B, then press A or B rapid HISUI SAI Kingfisher Crunch HCF + C Diamond Smasher HCB,fw + C [ Super special ] * Destiny 's Retribution HCB x 2 + AB [ P.Super special ] ** Jagged-Point Poke HCB x 2 + B ============================================================================ -------------------------- The Bosses ------------------------------------ 暁 武蔵 Musashi Akatsuki - - - - - - - - - - - - - - SPECIAL MOVES - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Charge Hold A Triple Slash QCF + A Power Geyser(?)
