My name's Sop and I'm a huge fan of the DOA series, not just for the breast physics ^.^ but for the cutting edge graphics and very fluent fighting styles emulated in the game. This guide, which is dedicated to my favourite DOA character - Kasumi, will list a variety of basic and advanced combo commands that I, Sop, has spent quite some time formulating and testing to see that each combo actually worked when executed and timed correctly. Do you have any idea how hard it was to come up with these combos?! No, of course you don't! That's why I wrote this FAQ so that all other 'wanna-be' Kasumi masters will not have to endure the all headaches and frustrations that I had to go through! Since I'm pretty much obsessed with Kasumi, I have formulated and mastered every single combo this girl can do! She is the only character I have trained with and got 10 hits 'off the bat' without having to slam my opponent against a wall to do it! However, due to lack of time, I have only listed a few of the combos that I've formulated. This is the 1st version of this FAQ after all, so it's only logical that I give you gamers a little taste of what I have in store for you! As updates progress, you'll see more and more combo commands listed until there isn't anything more left to write! ^.^ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 2.0 - KASUMI'S STATS ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Nationality: Japanese Gender: Female (That's 100% Female to you buster!) Birthday: February 23, Age: N/A Blood Type: A Height/Weight: 5'2", 106 lbs Body Size: B35" W21" H33" (Can anyone say this in English?!) Fighting Style: Mugen Tenshin Style Ninjitsu Tenjin Mon Occupation: Runaway shinobi Likes: Strawberry millefeuille (Mmmm! Gotta get me some of that!) Hobbies: Fortune telling (Wow! I didn't know she was into that stuff!) So you mean to say, no one else had the balls to ask her what was her real age? Hahaha! I ain't saying nothing! And that stuff about being a Runaway Shinobi is old news, she's actually spending time with me! That's how I got my other nickname - Kasumi's LuvaBoy! ;P ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 3.0 - KASUMI'S STORY ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Kasumi is a kunoichi (female ninja) who was ordained leader of the "Mugen Tenshin" style. Instead of accepting this position, she became a "runaway shinobi" so that she might avenge her brother, Hayate, who was partially paralyzed by DOATEC. Day after day she is forced to defend herself from attempts on her life by highly skilled assassins. Then, one day, Kasumi learns that Hayate is to be at the DOA tournament. Though, she finally meets her long-lost brother in this last tournament, it is impossible for a runaway shinobi ever to return home in peace. (That's why she's at my place instead! Mwahahaha! ;P) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 4.0 - ABOUT KASUMI'S FIGHTING STANCE ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Kasumi fights using the Mugen Tenshin style, but the way she moves those streamline hips of hers can send any hot-blooded male insane! She's the type of girl who'll kick your ass and then ask you if you're alright! She has a wide array of Kick Attacks, hence the reason why she doesn't wear a long skirt! It's only logical that she doesn't want her clothes affecting the execution of her attacks...I tell you if she had to fight with no clothes on at all (which would not be a bad idea!) she wouldn't even care, as long as she kicks the living daylights out of you! But we all know that Kasumi is a modest girl, come on! If she only catches you staring, she'll give it to you good and proper! (Okay! That didn't come out right, now, did it?! <:O ) Kasumi's signature move is her Oboro technique, where she moves at ultra high speeds to deliver a devastating knife-edge chop to the opponent! Her Oboro-Giri is very useful for escaping from tight spots by jumping against the wall, then lunge straight at the opponent (she looks as though she flies straight through you! That's hot! ^.^) Her Sakura-Madoi and Sakura-Mayoi allows her dodge a strike so fast that she ends up behind you leaving only Sakura petals in her place! (Now that's just beautiful! :< *sniffle*) Kasumi is basically the second fastest of the four ninjas featured in this game (Hayate, Ayane, Ryu Hayabusa a.k.a Ninja Gaiden and the one and only Kasumi-chan!). Well that's my viewpoint anyway! I've heard some people saying that she's the easiest of the four to master but I would have to disagree. Sure, it's no big deal executing her moves, but how you use those moves is what determines a "GREAT VICTORY" in battle! Kasumi, in my opinion, has the most amount of variations in linking together combos! This girl has moves all over the place! Damn, she's got a lot of techniques! It's almost scary! And that's what makes her the most unpredictable character in the game! (Wow! She's gorgeous, has a really cute butt, she's got one hell of a 'rack', she's got style and she can kick your ass in many different ways; Oh Kasumi darling! Please stay with me forever! ^.^ I tell you, if I only get my dirty little hands on DOA Extreme Beach Volleyball, my girlfriend is gonna leave me for sure!) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 5.0 - LEGEND/CONTROLS ---------------------------------------------------------------------- f - Forward b - Back u - Up d - Down uf - Forward/Up df - Forward/Down ub - Back/Up db - Back/Down F - Free P - Punch (Soft Press) p - Tap Punch (Hard Press) = P+K K - Kick (Soft Press) k - Tap Kick (Hard Press) = F+K Below shows a configuration which in my opinion, is the most comfortable during hardcore gameplay i.e when you don't have time to think about which button to press! X - Free Y - Punch A - F+P (Throw) B - Kick Black - F+K White - No use L Trigger - P+K R Trigger - F+P+K I'm not saying that you won't be able to do a thing without using this configuration, but at least try it, you've got nothing to lose (well probably a round or two...and well if you guys love gambling then blame it on the short guy! I gots nothing to do with it!) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 6.0 - MOVESLIST ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Here is the moveslist that was taken directly from the book (pg. 28). It lists a very SMALL portion of the total amount of Attacks that Kasumi has...well it basically consists of Kasumi's signature moves! If you want to find out the rest of the Moves, then you can just check the in-game Command List (selectable in the Pause Menu). ATTACKS Ren-Kaio-Sentotsu : P, P, P, P Renzuki-Hakuro : P, P, K, K Renko-Rishu : P, P, f P, K, K Ren-Engetsu : P, P, f K, K Renzuki-Fukasen : P, P, d K Senko-Tenshu : f P, f K Muei-Hangetsu : f, f P, K Mugen-To : df, df P Tenbu-Shu : uf P, K Rengo-Kyaku : K, K, K Getsurin : ub K Mai-Ogi : df, df K Tsumuji : P+K Rekkuga : f P+K Hakuro-Kyaku : F+K, K Oboro-Giri : (when back-facing a wall) b P THROWS Oboro-Gake : (while running) F+P Hien-Saka-Otoshi : u F+P, F+P (throw combo) Ibara-Otoshi : f, f F+P, d F+P (throw combo) Niji-Shibuki : d F+P (low throw) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 7.0 - DEAD OR ALIVE 3 GAMEPLAY MECHANICS ---------------------------------------------------------------------- I wasn't going to add this section at first, because it would make this FAQ a Walkthrough instead of a mere Character FAQ. However, I believe that this would give beginners a fair idea of how the gameplay mechanics of DOA 3 works. It should also make you appreciate the amount of thought and hard work that Team Ninja has placed into this game. Hence the reason why I've added this section. As you all should know, DOA 3 isn't your average fighting game; It was the game that Team Ninja created to put Tekken 3/Tag out of its misery, and boy did they do it in style! The environments in which you are battling have a significant role to play in how your attacks connect with your opponent. For example: In the FOREST stage, the land has slopes and trees, surrounded by small hills. Doing certain Throws next to a tree or wall will cause your character to slam his/her opponent against it. Moves that will knock back your opponent, can also have the same effect. You can also use the ditches or 'holes' in the environment to avoid your opponent's attacks and the same goes for your opponent as well. In the LOST WORLD stage, you can knock your opponent off the edge with knock-back attacks or certain throws when done on an opponent who is close enough to the edge. In the AZUCHI stage, you can send your opponent through certain walls, which will place you and your opponent in a different part of the stage. Even the weather in the SNOW stage affects the gameplay! Moves that wouldn't normally knock your opponent into the air, will do so, if the breeze blowing in the stage is strong enough! By knocking your opponent into the air when he/she is next to wall will prevent them from falling a great distance away from you, which means that your juggles will do more hits and damage. By knocking your opponent against a wall will stun your opponent for a much longer period, this will usually result in your opponent bouncing off the wall, making them the perfect target for a barrage of combos/juggles! The best way to know that your hits are connecting, is to enable the Vibration in the controller; every time the control vibrates, you will know that your hits are connecting. The funniest instance is in the BEACH stage, when you knock your opponent against a coconut tree. If your opponent stays under the tree for too long a coconut will fall and hit them PLOP! on the head! In every one of these instances, your opponent will take extra damage for it, so utilize the environment to your advantage! DOA 3 also features a Soft Press-Hard Press system, which allows for any type of player (Precision Players and Button Mashers) to easily get into the game. Basically, when pressing the Punch button softly will make your character do a Jab and pressing the button hard (or tapping it) will make your character hit the opponent with a much more powerful attack. With the inclusion of this system, players will find themselves being absorbed into the game; It would feel as if it is YOU who is fighting! However, there is a downside to this feature, since there is no way of turning it off, you will sometimes find yourself doing moves that you really didn't want to do, if you aren't accustomed with this system. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 8.0 - KASUMI'S STUN MOVES ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This section shall list all of the Kasumi's Attacks that have the potential to stun your opponent, if it connects. When a Stun Attack connnects with an opponent, you will see "Critical Hit!" written in red at the top left or top-right corner of the screen (it depends on which side of the field you're on). This will momentarily disable your opponent from attacking or blocking, however if they recover quickly enough (done by pressing the Free button multiple times) they will be able to block or even counter your next attack. Stun Moves are used for initiating combos. Some attacks listed were not stated in the in- game Command List, so I've made up names for them myself! ^.^ Hiryu : u K Kaio-Sentotsu : df P, P Tsumuji : P+K (or) b p Sen-Kasumi : d F+K (or) d k Mugen-To : df, df P (or) d p Mai-Ogi : df, df K Flying Spin Kick : F+K (or) k ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 9.0 - KASUMI'S BACK-FACING ATTACKS ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Yes! I know there weren't any Back-Facing Attacks listed in the game for Kasumi but that doesn't hide the fact that she can very well defend her behind! (And that goes for all you pervs who want to try something funny with her! :P ) That also gives me a good reason to put my imagination to the test once again and make up names for these moves as well...damn! if only I knew how to speak Japanese! (:< Kasumi's BF Attacks are:- Soaring Uppercut Palm Strike : d P (or) p Backflip Grounder : u K (or) k Mid Spinning Heel Kick : d K Bokuho Style Kick : db K Double Reverse Hook Kick : K, K ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 10.0 - BASIC COMBOS ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Kasumi's Stun Moves are some of the most well refined Attacks, meaning that they have good range and can link together with each other very smoothly to deliver a high number of hits, not to mention the amount of damage you'll be dishing out as well! In this section, I shall list all of Kasumi's basic combos. These combos will be stated using this format:- Combo Starter <-- The Stun Move used to initate the combo. Continuation <-- The Stun Move used to further damage the opponent. Finisher <-- An Attack that will fall your opponent. I will also be kind enough to include the names of the attacks and I'll try to state the ways of executing these for both Precision Players and Button Mashers. Each combo will always have multiple ways to Finish it, therefore, I shall present Combo Sets; Where each Set is determined by the Combo Starter. Variations of the Combo will be determined according to the Continuation used, and a suitable name will be placed for each of these. Therefore, I shall have yet another reason to dip in to that creative side of my mind to come up with names that should be suitable enough for the appearance of the combo! These combos should be simple enough to memorize and execute, but some may prove to be a bit troublesome at first, but don't worry you'll get it as long as you keep practicing! Remember that when you Stun your opponent, there is a chance that they might recover in time to block or even counter your next attack. So be swift and precise - like a Ninja!

These are all the executable Basic Combos that I can come up with, that will actually work wonders if executed flawlessly. If you had taken note before, you would have noticed that I didn't list any combos using Mai-Ogi, this is because Kasumi's Mai-Ogi technique is pretty slow and it is very difficult to juggle your opponent since they tend to fall a much further distance away from you as opposed to any other of her air-launching techniques. Anyways, 17 combos are a lot of combos if you stop and think about it, so good luck memorizing them if you wish to be a true Kasumi master, or in other words - The most unpredictable player in the game of Dead or Alive 3! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 11.0 - ADVANCED COMBOS ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This section is like the Hallmark of this entire FAQ! It's a list of combos that I have formulated myself for advanced Kasumi players. These combos shall be presented in the same format as the Basic Combos but they will also include Transition moves. It's just a fancy name I've placed for moves that will further stun and damage your opponent thus allowing you to connect even more hits than before! This section features the mighty "Kasumi Special" and "Sakura Blitz"; two combos that I'm very proud of! These combos will go for 10 Hits and deliver a staggering 120+ pts damage! This section contains a total of 14 combo sets that have been tested thoroughly and painstakingly to ensure that you get it when you follow the steps and time your button punches correctly. The first few combo sets will definitely mesmerize you (if you're a guy, that is ^.^) since Kasumi will execute a series of graceful kicks making her skirt fly in just about every direction! (Well since I mentioned that part about the skirts flying and stuff; Did you know that when Kasumi is wearing her ninja outfit, she has on a thong; and when she has the school outfit on, she wears regular panties? ...I just thought that I should share that with all you pervs alike out there, you know we're all brothers in arms! ;P ) ADVANCED COMBO SET 1 -

However, there is only one way of getting all 10 hits to connect your opponent. It was founded that the opponent fell way too fast for the last hit in the combo to connect but by starting the combo while your opponent is near a wall will guarantee 100% success! If you can somehow back your opponent towards (not against) a wall and start this combo, you will not slam your opponent against the wall but prevent them from falling a great distance away from you. The end result being, 10 sweet hits where the last hit is always critical because Kasumi will end up kicking the opponent against the wall just before they hit the ground! Well that's all for now folks, I had a lot of fun creating this FAQ and I hope that you all have enjoyed it! Fear not, this won't be the end of me, you can always send me an email as long as its concerning this FAQ! I may probably consider doing some more FAQs but until then Peace Out! ~Sop~ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 12.0 - LEGALITIES ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not copy this document or any part of it elsewhere without proper approval from me, the author.

I give my regards to Team Ninja at Tecmo for creating such a great game, may we see more from them for years to come! Kasumi is the best character in the Dead or Alive series, if she had to win an award, it should be for "Best Female Fighting-Game Character for 2005/2006". There's no doubt in my mind that Dead or Alive 4 is going to be another smash hit! (Oh! How I wish I had an Xbox 360! *sniff*) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 2005. Copyright. Vishal Choonie (Sop)
