Description
"Until there's peace, I'll fight!"



Hailing from SNK's Samurai Shodown, Nakoruru comes to the world of Aether to deliver Mother Nature's justice!
Fight alonside her pet hawk, Mamahaha, to deliver deadly blows and swift combos!

Moveset



Neutral B - Amube Yatoro
Mamahaha tackles diagonally. Different from the source game, Nakoruru doesn't have to command the attack, meaning the attack can be desynced. Be wary that the move is cancelled if either Nakoruru or Mamahaha gets hit.

Side B - Annu Mutsube
One of your main approach options, Annu Mutsube is a horizontal attack where Nakoruru fuels her blade with ki energy. Dealing pretty high damage and knockback, it's a good combo ender. However, it leads you to pratfall/helpless state when finished.

Down B - Rera Mutsube
Similar to Annu Mutsube, but with some key differences. First off, the movement angle is different, being diagonal instead of horizontal. This means that you can use it as both an anti-air attack and a recovery.

Up B - Cling to Mamahaha
Nakoruru clings into Mamahaha, allowing her to fly for a bit. While flying, she can make a quick slash or cancel the flight with a double or a wall jump.

However, that's not all Nakoruru has up on her sleeve. Being true to her original game, her gimmick is...
The Rage Gauge

One of the most iconic mechanics to the Samurai Shodown franchise is the Rage Gauge. In the games, it slowly fills up when you deal or recieve damage. This is also the case with this mod.
The gauge fills up with parrying attacks, dealing and recieving damage, and losing a stock. Once it's full, you get a number of advantages, such as a damage buff, and upgrated versions of your specials.

Neutral B - Amube Yatoro: Mamahaha now continues with it's attack, even if either Nakoruru or Mamahaha gets hit.

Side B - Annu Mutsube: The attack is now a multi-hit, dealing extra damage.

Down B - Rera Mutsube: The attack now spikes.

Up B - Cling to Mamahaha: Nakoruru now has access to Kamui Mutsube, a deadly diving attack that deals massive damage. Press B while in flight state to use it.

Weird, it shows the icon for kirby copy ability in the select screen next to the munophone icon. But no kirby copy ability support.

Nakoruru is very nice. Good combos overall and the rage mechanic works really well. She also seems fairly balanced to me (but I am not an expert on that). Overall she is one of the most fun characters I have played on the workshop.

:dotreimu: :reimu1: :reimu4: :ReimuHakurei:

Joking aside, Nakoruru's combo game is genuinely super fun. Feels super satisfying to string hits together.
